Samy Bouzaglo, co-owner of Amy's Baking Company Bakery Boutique & Bistro with his equally askew wife Amy, is apparently mired in ongoing "immigration court proceedings" that could result in his expulsion from the country.

Though his lawyer David Asser has refused to comment on the case, AZ Central reports that Bouzaglo, a Moroccan-born Israeli citizen, has apparently been less than forthcoming about divulging drug distribution and extortion charges that landed him in prison prior to his arrival in the US 13 years ago.

Bouzaglo is also banned from entering France and Germany.

And people say there's no such thing as bad publicity.

Definitely sounds like some mafia shit there.

The UK version of Kitchen Nightmare is a much better version than the US version.

"We've had to weed through the crazy—like photos of kitty cats," Amy Bouzaglo told LAist.

Bouzaglo and her husband Samy recently put out a job listing/casting call on Facebook asking for servers and bussers to apply to work at Amy's Baking Company—and for their new reality TV show. They're getting a variety of applicants, including furry animals. It's not surprising that they're getting trolled by people over the internet—and that some may be hesitant to join the staff. After all, the beleaguered restaurant was featured on Fox's "Kitchen Nightmares" in May in a negative media firestorm, showing that they kept tips from their servers, screamed at their employees and customers and served frozen food disguised as fresh.

Irwin Entertainment, the company that has produced other fine reality TV shows such as "Celebrity Rehab" and "Couples Therapy" is giving Amy's Baking Company the Hollywood touch. Bouzaglo was mum on which network is picking them up; however, they are expected to start shooting in a couple of weeks.

"This [show] is about the real Samy and Amy Bouzaglo," she said. "[It's about] how we are 100 percent the polar opposite of how we were portrayed on 'Kitchen Nightmares.'"

She promised the show would also reveal that she does "100 percent of the baking" herself (a contentious topic where she was portrayed as doing the exact opposite on the "Kitchen Nightmares" episode), her home life with her husband, and her "kitty cats." Bouzaglo insisted that they never stole tips from their servers, and that people will see how well she treats her staff, including a girl she has been training for the past eight months; she referred to her as "Mini-Me."
