Looks like 6 links referring to the same story.
Not sure the validity of the story, but let's not act like it's the same as the Turkey Leg soap opera.

I'm betting if you were to walk into their "office" you'd see papers and **** everywhere and just stacks of unopened mail, letters, invoices, etc.
Or the opposite….no paper/invoices anywhere.
They were probably all thrown in the trash with a ceremonious verbal blessing "That ain't right I ain't paying that."
Say it ain't so.

Shocked!!!!
I don't know what to think of this whole thing. I drove by there this past weekend and it was bumping. But to read all the news and links on it, it would sound like they can't even get food to cook from their vendors, and the owners are liable to have a shootout in the streets. And I just don't get all the hype. I'm no fan of a turkey lef to begin with, but how could something like that have been all the rage for a while?
Idiots on social media thinking they need to go there to show everyone else they went there.
People often confuse popular with good. See the longhorn football program or Subway or the band U2.ccolley68 said:

Haha. Wasnt long before the old "accidental kitchen fire" was gonna happen.

Turkey Leg Hut closed unexpectedly for “renovations.” 😂 Here’s how u know it’s a lie: b/c they lie abt EVERYTHING. Who “renovates” during bankruptcy? They’re done guys. I hope they paid their EE’s before shutting down …but I doubt it @chron @FOX26Houston @EaterHouston

Bankruptcy. Mysterious fires. Nonexistent renovations. Theft. Tax fraud. Infidelity. Spousal abuse. Health code violations. This place has it all. They’re done guys https://t.co/U3CFAlXWMd

BREAKING: Turkey Leg Hut has been shut down by the Houston Health Department for 35 health code violations. #khou11 https://t.co/TnC2dlTKVO

Good job, Whitmire! Get these scamming scumbags outta here.
Sadly when you let these idiots run a business, this is bound to happen.
If you're not scared yet, imagine the intelligence level of the mongoloids the Dims have placed in fed and local govt roles.
One day, a major division of the govt will just shut down due to incompetence masked as something else. We are seeing it here now when you incentivize cretins to open private businesses.
What does that say about affirmative action which has been promoting dingdongs into unqualified positions and schools for decades?
Is this dramatic enough for you, bularry?

Turkey Leg Hut hit with 35 health code violations
Author: Cory McCord (KHOU)
The Houston Health Department shut down Turkey Leg Hut due to 35 violations that they said posed a threat to public health.
HOUSTON The Houston Health Department shut down Turkey Leg Hut on Thursday due to "serious health code violations."
The health department said the restaurant was issued 35 violations, "including conditions that pose an imminent threat to public health."
Health officials said the restaurant has to remain closed until the issues are resolved and they can do a follow-up inspection to ensure the correct measures were taken.
"We take public health very seriously and will monitor the situation," the health department said.
The restaurant posted on Instagram that it would be closed this weekend (Friday, Saturday and Sunday) for renovations.
Here's the full restaurant report:
Past reporting on Turkey Leg Hut
The restaurant that's known for its massive, stuffed turkey legs and long lines of customers has seen its fair share of drama over the years.
Earlier this year, Turkey Leg Hut filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy and documents indicated the restaurant was nearly $5 million in debt.
In 2018, a lawsuit was filed against co-owner Nakia Price after she allegedly failed to pay rent after assuming a lease for Turkey Leg Hut. This civil case is still ongoing, according to court records.
In 2022, US Foods, based in Delaware, filed a lawsuit in the U.S. District Court in Illinois, alleging Turkey Leg Hut owed $85,106.17, but with the interest rate and attorney's fees, the total amounted to $1,288,583.12 as of the court filing.
In March of this year, a fire broke out inside the Turkey Leg Hut business office. In a social media post, Nakia said she's grateful the restaurant didn't burn.
