This highlights the shift from culinary craftsmanship to algorithm-driven spectacle, where visual shock value becomes the primary currency of modern dining. It is a fascinating case study of how the digital attention economy dictates the evolution of local gastronomy.

I Tested LA's SECRET Hot Cheetos RestaurantAdded:
All right, y'all. So, the cheat day continues. Today, we're in Downey, California, and we're about to go to a place that's a hidden secret hot Cheetos restaurant. The place is called Fatima's Grill. Now, they have a few other locations all around. This place pretty much tastes hot Cheetos and put it on almost anything. When I saw it on TikTok, I could not believe my mind.

>> Hot Cheeto. Very evolved.
>> And I would say a wet flaming hot Cheeto burrito. We're one of the first to do it and everybody else I think >> every I need hot Cheetos everything. I actually wrote down some things that I sent. Hot Cheetos burger. Can I have it pretty? Can I have it hot? I I know y'all only do the front. Can I have it hot Cheetoed out?
>> But remember in your video you got to say they only did the burger for you this way.
>> No, I know. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. The burger only for me like >> the burger.
>> The burger and the ball >> and the balls. Can that come with guns?
>> Yes, absolutely.
>> Okay, I'll take the burrito. What's the most popular way to come?
>> Carto perfect. Is there anything else I'm missing? Like, yo, they got to try this.
>> We get loaded fries.
>> Let's do that.
>> For the loaded fries, we have so many different options. Chicken, shrimp, honey glaze, like teriyak. I'll do that.
>> We have specialty drinks and then like our desserts. We have a little viral Tik Tok ice cream.
>> It's a burger ice cream. It is.
>> What other crazy ones y'all got? Fried chicken burger. We have steak.
>> Wait, wait. Y'all got fried chicken ice cream?
>> Yeah.
>> Yeah. Let's start on a It's a cheat day, but it ain't a cheat life.
>> What's your name?
>> Uh, Jacob.
>> Like Jacob or >> like No, like Jacob Lordy. Okay, >> there we go.
>> So, we're 1971 over here in total.
>> All right, y'all. I'm going to show y'all them making the food. But before we do that, let's go ahead and get to the sweets. We got fried ice cream. This is a fried chicken ice cream. I've seen stuff like this online. Always wanted to try it, but I never did. I did not expect to come here and do this, so this is why I'm like excited for it. This looks just like an ice cream. I just passed like a group, a SUV, six people inside, no seat belts hanging out the window, and they were trying to decide if they knew, but it was like, "Hey, [ __ ] booty right." I'm like, "Yo, y'all got to chill the out." You feel me? This is why I take my ass overseas.
Y'all got to chill out.
>> Oh, [ __ ] Um, y'all watching this video that just went in that car and yel my name. Look what y'all did, bro. That's like $6 worth of ice cream just completely wasted, my [ __ ] You know what?
[ __ ] At least let me get the little fried chicken.
I aming living. I'm keeping it together.
But y'all didn't roll pasting that. It was a good SUV, too. It was white. Good seats. I'm sure the like seat had heating. Where y'all seat belts, bro?
That [ __ ] just pissed me off. Now, this burger is $10. Shout out them. They seem cool. I could tell they a little uptight about people stealing their [ __ ] I could read between the lines. I could tell they're very like, "Yeah, we got our [ __ ] We really want to be on camera." I'm like, "Yo, I feel it." But I drove over here. So, shout out them.
You know, I would keep it a buck every time, but shout out them. The lady was nice, but I could tell like together they be snapping. Ice cream burger first look. Okay, I paid $10 for this. My first job, I was making $725 an hour.
So, this is about an hour and about 15 minutes to my first job. We all have a dishwasher in our house. Imagine you don't have a dishwasher and it'sing me just sitting there BY THE SEAT. THAT WAS ME. My first job every hour 7:25. So just think about how long I'd have to be working to get this now. It looks like a good slider from White Castle. If you live in the south like Georgia, there's a place called Crystals.
>> It looks like that.
>> We got the burger, the cheese. Is that real bread? No way. That's bread. Okay, now hear me out.
Ice cream sandwich is bread and ice cream. So we get it. You know what I mean? Is that real cheese? Is that real cheese? Is that real cheese? Here we go.
>> Why was it stringy, bro? Oh, man. I don't know what the that is. Y'all saw the CEO of where was it? Burger King try a burger or was it McDonald's?
I love our product.
Oh, what is happening today? Let's go ahead and try this burger.
>> What am I doing, bro? I don't know what that cheese thing is. It It's not nasty, but I'm starting to question like what's the stringy thing going on. Burger, frozen dessert, salted butter flavor, microwave for Why didn't they do that?
Why didn't they do that? I have no idea what the old cheese is. None. It's one of them things where like it's like a cool nap. Is it nasty? No. It's very creative. At least it's not expired.
Let's go see thising food being made.
>> We are a Mexican Mediterranean food fusion. We're not just, you know, full of hot Cheetos and whatnot. We started about 10 years ago with Mediterranean fusion platters as you can see. The shrimp, the chicken kebab, pretty much like the hot Cheetos came in when the pandemic hit.
>> So, like, what made you start hot Cheetos on?
>> I did about a 8 and 1/2, 9 year. I did heavy fetches.
>> Yeah.
>> So, I took culinary look on the inside.
So, I was always throwing chips on pretty much everything.
>> When you were inside, were you just trying like random? You were just trying to do anything that tastes good.
>> Only nacho cheese, Doritos, and stuff like that cuz we didn't have no access to Hot Cheetos. What was the first item that you decided to hot Cheeto?
>> It was just a burrito. It was real simple.
>> You remember the first day when you put it on the menu? You was like, "All right, man."
>> It took off.
>> Oh, really?
>> It took off. I've been trying to step away from it just a little bit cuz you know, everybody's been graduated to like, "Oh, I don't want no Hot Cheetos and whatnot. You can't get away from this stuff."
>> Cuz I was about to ask that too. At first, did you want to step away? Cuz it's like, damn, we get too known for that. They >> wanted to step away because I wanted to go back to my bread and butter, but everybody was like, "Nah, like so when the numbers make sense." So you open the first Teamless Grill? Yes sir.
>> All the ones that are on East Coast or West Coast, do you own all of them or >> I own the rights to pretty much every single one. Okay.
>> But every franchise location has a franchise owner.
>> So you still get a percentage?
Absolutely. So it's kind of like the person that opened McDonald's. You can open a franchise, but they still get a cut of it.
>> Absolutely.
>> What route would you suggest someone who just coming out of jail to like to make a lot of money? Is there a business they should go into? Like what's the best route for them?
>> Not surround yourself with suckers no more cuz that's not there like the first time, right? The second thing is you got to find a niche. I know you found a niche on the inside. Something had to keep you busy on this. Find that niche and run with it. Don't let nobody tell you that you can't do it.
>> Was this the plan you had ever since you was inside?
>> It's it's half of the plan. I never thought in 10 years it was going to be like this. I had a vision, but the Lord blessed me with a vision.
>> Right. Right. So, do you ever plan to like be completely hands off?
>> The only reason why I'm still hands on to today because in this society, if we get too comfortable, it's a lot of dogs out there.
>> Right.
All right, y'all. We got a lot of stuff. Y I ordered a lot of food. I ain't going to lie. Holy.
Welcome to the cheat day, ladies and gentlemen. It's about to get messy.
Let's go ahead and eat this food, y'all.
This is the hot Cheetos fries. And I forgot what he said. I ordered a whole bunch of stuff. It's a lot of stuff.
It's night time. We got security right there.
No idea what's going on. We in the middle of a rooftop. We got a lot of detail. Let's go ahead and get it though. If you look in here, oh man, like this is loaded fries. Okay, so it's shrimp, hot Cheetos, teriyaki, something, and fries. I have no idea. I am so hungry. This is the best cheat day ever.
>> Yes. Yes. This is all you need. Oh my gosh.
Teriyaki, chicken, shrimp, fries, hot Cheetos, peppers, cheese.
Yes.
This is crazy. So, what I researched is my title stands true. It is LA's. The one we're at is the original one and that is the owner there. That's the guy that opened all this. So, just like there's McDonald's, you can open up your own franchise. You can open up a McDonald's in Zinc Arkansas. The owner of McDonald's will still get a percentage of what that thing brings every month. He is the owner of McDonald's. This is good. It's ridiculous.
Came out of jail said it. I'm going to open up the most viral we've ever seen.
This is my first one. This is good. No.
No. This is good, dude.
Only thing is I forgot to check the price of everything.
Here we are. So, this that I'm eating right here and this is a big ass plate.
This could honestly feed two. This is $22.99 with $3.25 of Cheeto Dust. So, this is chicken and shrimp honey glazed teriyaki fries. They cost $23. I That's not a lot. But this is No, no, this is good though. Like, you know, fries sides. Now, this ain't no side.
It kind of reminds me of like Habach grill with the shrimp. The chicken is like a real teriyaki chicken. I feel like you almost can't taste the hot tito dust which I feel like you never really almost taste it. But then the fries are good. Imagine this but all like teriyaki style. I know it's so hard to imagine.
I'm trying to even imagine in my head and I can't. But it tastes really good.
I can finish this but I have to chill out. Let's get to the next thing. Is is good. I'm trying to think what's rating.
I think it needs a rating. This is good.
It's really good. Yeah.
Good man.

Now, let's get on with the rest of the video. It's Young Py. I need a drink.
I'm about to try. Now, this isn't theirs. This is somebody local that they sell it like some Kool-Aid. Rose City Punch. It does say shake. Well, so I'mma listen.
Y'all listen. My life is a mess right now. It's night time. I'm in Downey, California filming on a rooftop.
H I wonder what Puty is doing today on a rooftop. Like if if you're ever home like it's 7:30 p.m. What is Puty doing on a rooftop in Downey, California? Like you know what I mean? Like that that is what I'm doing.
Perch. Boy, I have Kool-Aid soing long.
There was a time in my life I used to live off Kool-Aid. Water like middle school, no water, no nothing. goddamn scared of water. I don't know if Iing took a shower in middle school. Like I no water was touching my body inside or outside. I was showering Kool-Aid. Like that's how middle school was for me.
Very unhealthy. Like you know that people's like, "Oh, it colors your inside." [ __ ] my inside looked like purple. Like it was just grape Kool-Aid.
I didn't sweat no liquid other than Kool-Aid for like 2 and 1/2 years. It was bad, bro. I was a big walking around. But I I wasn't that tall in middle school, though. So I was just like hella wide. It was crazy. But I was like I could do a whole bunch of [ __ ] though. I was a good kid. Just a little fat like you know what I mean? Like no water test my just pure Kool-Aid. Good kid though. I tell a good kid. Just only drank Kool-Aid. I only know if I showered in sixth grade. I took like three showers in the summer.
It It couldn't have been more. I'm just trying to be honest. Next up we have the burger. I am not a burger guy.
>> Like never really eat a burgers. Big people don't eat burgers. Like that's not something that was like like it was just easy to pick on. Like burger. I probably had like six Big Macs my entire life. Burger and also Big Macs. If you go to McDonald's and you order inflation now is different. But like 2015, like if you was to order anything over like $65 worth of food, new restaurant, bro. Like Chipotle wasn't that off. I think Chipotle was like 725 for aing burrito, >> which is what I made in an hour.
>> Damn. Every time I think about Chipotle, do I want to work an hour? What What the [ __ ] am I talking about? It's a little cold. It's a little cold. I'm talking fast. Trying to warm up. All right, so next we have this hot Cheeto burger. And it's also got cold as my [ __ ] I was sweating. I was n I drove here naked. It was hot. Camera got cold as [ __ ] Not eating. No shelter on him. Let me bite it first so y'all can see it.
Now, before I get to the food, I noticed it in my face and I have no cues at all.
Ooh. Nothing. So, like when y'all watching like, "What doesn't he eat?"
This is why.
>> Right here. Oh, this I'm not a burger guy, but if we're talking about hot Cheetos burger, to this day, the best burger I probably had was the Atlanta Faithful Foods video. The lady at the end, she had this Hot Cheetos burger.
Y'all know y'all seen it. Hopefully, if we're still friends, um I was a fat kid growing up. Never really >> The burger at the end was one of the best burgers ever had. That Facebook Foods girl has this beat cuz she's good.
Like that burger was good. Also, the Fox Bros burger was good, too.
And like you see I'm trying to like move away cuz there food on my lip and you just get closer. Whose side you on, bro?
Soon as there food on my lip. I'm putting two two together. All of a sudden you start getting closer. It's like you want to see me fail in life, bro. Nah. Move, dog. All right. Next up, y'all, we have a burrito. There's sauce, there's seasoning. It is wet. So, because it's a wet burrito, which mean they stuffed it in cheese, it is a little like soggy. Let's go ahead and bite it, bro. Here we go.
So, you mean to tell me there's nothing on my face right now? What do you mean nothing? So, this is a asada wet burrito. All right. This is hella soggy as y'all can see cuz it's literally wet.
About to go ahead and get it. It is a burrito, though.
I don't know why I chose love.
Was that ghost sleeper pepper?
Hold the up.
>> I don't know.
>> My lips is on fire right now.
>> Holy [ __ ] That sauce is hot.
>> Was that even the hottest one, bro? What the [ __ ] Bro, that sound is hot as bro. No. No. No. No. Woah. Woah. Woah.
That shit's hot. Holy [ __ ] The burrito tastes good. What kind of burrito? I said it was a side burrito. I wouldn't recommend getting No. No. If you like wet burrito in Mexican culture, wet burritos is very popular. I had it when I was in Mexico City, but I didn't grow up on wet burritos. So, it's That sauce is hot as holy [ __ ] My whole life is burning right now, bro. This what HURT ME FEELING LIKE. HOLD UP, BRO. THAT [ __ ] is hot. Caution warning. You needing sign that [ __ ] The flavor of the burrito is good. But the soggginess of the wet burrito, which I asked for or what he suggested, but I totally said yes. That mixed with how hot throw me off.
That is the hottest restaurant package sauce I've ever had. Like something you could just casually pick the up. Holy [ __ ] that is hot.
What the? Holy [ __ ] I'm like having a crazy time. Oh my baby. We got the berry balls and then we got a cup of cheese.
So, we're going to dump those in. That sauce is so hot. I'm still thinking about the sauce. I'm going to compare these balls to the ones from Facebook Marketplace food. Damn. So, this is two things from Facebook Marketplace food that I got that I'm about to compare the burger and the balls. Then they said they're like the first people to do it or something like that. Hey, shout out him. Out of prison came and open up aing franchise. Viral as hell on TikTok.
Let's go ahead and bite it.
Now, when it comes to the berry ball, that sauce still kind of killing me. I ain't going to lie. And that Kool-Aid star me out the face. I probably just download a whole 5 lb bag of sugar drinking that. When it comes to the berry balls, the hot Cheetos one that the girls had is still my favorite.
Followed by the ramen as my second favorite out of all these that I've had.
However, when it comes to the berry balls though, between this and hers, his berry balls. Pause. Pause. These berry balls are better than those berry balls.
I like these ones better. But when it comes to hot Cheeto balls, the Hot Cheetos mac and cheese balls that she had was first and the ramen has to be a second. She had that mac and Cheetos ones on point. Also, someone said this about beria and I kind of feel the same way. I ordered a compliment on my beria or at least I told her it, but I don't think she put it cuz I just got cheese.
Beria is one of them things that like looks a lot cooler than what it is. Like beria in general does not taste good.
That [ __ ] went viral as to non-Mexicans around like what 2021 somewhere around there. I'm be honest, that [ __ ] just looks cool. And then you dip it in a consumeat. Like beria in general as a meat for me is overrated. I feel like it looked like a cooler process than what it is. I'm not the big fan of how beria tastes. I actually haven't had a place that I'm like, "Yo, this berry is good."
For me, it's just like whatever meat.
Overall thing is though, I like the fries. The shrimp teriyaki fries for me was my personal favorite. If I was to come back, that's what I would order again. The chicken and shrimp honey glazed teriyaki fries. And I have never had nothing like that before. And also having the hot Cheetos on top makes it like an interesting mix of things to have. Y'all, this is Fatima's Grill.
Viral Hot Cheetos restaurant. Started here in Downey. Got some big things coming. I love y'all. Do me a favor, though, before I get off. I want to hit 700,000 on this second channel before summer, aka before June. There's this much of y'all right here who watches the videos and aren't subscribed. Can y'all go ahead and subscribe to this channel?
Make sure you hit that subscribe and I'll catch you on another one. It's Young Py.
Is it what you
