Pablo Escobar-themed restaurant garnishes burgers with $100 bill and fake cocaine

The Onion? Or with onions? –

Feb. 16, 2019 – The pop-up restaurant in Melbourne, Australia is called Pablo’s Escoburgers. The concept is facing social media outrage for being in “poor taste,” as critics point out that the drug kingpin was responsible for the deaths of countless Colombians. The group behind the pop-up said in a statement: “We are very proud of our burgers but we do also understand that Pablo Escobar was a horrible man who destroyed the lives of thousands of Colombians. We do not condone, idolize or promote Pablo Emilio Escobar or his actions in any way. We are, however, Australian and know how to have a laugh about a good play on words.”
