* NoOshaCompliance: Julia's "restaurant" is actually just an open field where people have to scrounge for food, meaning hygiene is not great. Her previous attempts to create ''actual'' restaurants got shut down for this as well.



* RambunctiousItalian: Anthony D'Anthony, the creator of Cheese Punch, lives up to all the stereotypes. Subverted since he's barely Italian and grew up in {{Joisey}}.

* TheyJustDontGetIt: Despite the non-existent hygiene standards, horrible condition of the food and the constant danger from wild animals which led to one diner getting bitten by a rattlesnake, Julia had no idea why the health department shut her first restaurant down.

* BrooklynRage: Anthony, full stop. He lives in New York City, has a HairTriggerTemper, and is rude to pretty much everyone.



* HateSink: There is ''nothing'' likeable about Anthony. He fires people at the drop of a hat, has a HairTriggerTemper, is condescending to his employees and customers, takes ridiculous prices for extremely basic food, takes credit for "innovating" things that aren't innovations and even stalked his ex-girlfriend. While he is clearly suffering from stress and anger issues, it's pointed out several times that he has been adviced to seek therapy or learn coping mechanisms, but refuses to do so.

* AppealToNature: Julia's restaurant, "Farme", is built on this, as it was designed to be as "natural" as possible. Unfortunately, this means it's an empty field where the patrons have to eat whatever they can find, raw.


Added DiffLines:

* HauteCuisineIsWeird: Much of the humor in this series comes from the bizarre meals these "expert chefs" serve, from Blynn's science experiments to Julia's way-too-natural food.

* TheLostLenore: Laura fell in love with a female fishmonger, and it was the first time she ever focused on an individual rather than communal service, but she was eaten by a whale. At least it was how she always wanted to die.

* StrawMisogynist: In addition to his [[HateSink many other hateable traits]], Anthony has never hired a woman to work at his foodtruck and thinks that cooking is a man's game. This is despite having grown up with 35 sisters and a grandmother who taught him to cook. He's not any better to his ex-girlfriend, whom he hates because she chose her carrier over him.

* FelonyMisdemeanor: The one time Giuseppe attempts to deviate from tradition (by making one tiramisu cupcake with his old tools), everyone hates him for it, more for the tradition-breaking than the actual quality of the cupcake.
