Stordalen injured in an altercation with a Norwegian restaurant owner | the world

Hotel tycoon Peter Stordalen found himself in a strange conflict with a restaurant owner in Porsgrunn, in Telemark, Norway. commander He was the first to report.

Restaurant owner Ibrahim Tas intends to open a bar called “Stordalen Pub and Cocktail Bar”.

– I think it is a very beautiful name that suits our concept, says Tas to NRK.

The pub's logo also features strawberries, a not-so-secret nod to Stordalen's “Strawberry” hotel empire, named after Stordalen's start to his career as a strawberry vendor.

NRK: But do you realize that the name and the strawberry in the logo can be linked to the company name and family name?

– It should be understood that strawberries are not golden in color. He changed the color of his logo. Tas answers: He should know that the traditional color of strawberries is red.

Conflict with his nephew

Tas admits the pub's name is an interesting poke in the side at Stordalen – but not at Peter's. Instead, it is directed to his nephew, Simon Stordalen, who is the CEO of a company that owns the property where Tas runs the fast food restaurant “Oscars Brasserie.”

TASS told NRK that he and Simon Stordalen had differences of opinion regarding rent and shared expenses.

Through a lawyer, Peter Stordalen sent a letter to Ibrahim Tas demanding that the restaurateur cancel his plans for the restaurant name by Monday at the latest – otherwise legal action will be awaited.

– I have no comments on this, says Peter Stordalen in what NRC It is described as a “longer phone conversation” with him.
