After a turbulent four months of bounced checks and low staff retention, Clinton, Iowa-based Flav's Fried Chicken has shuttered, reports WQAD. Flav claims that restaurant manager Nick Cimino wasn't running the business right, while Cimino believes that Flav is a "fraud" and he is glad to be "free of somebody like Flavor Flav." TMZ learns that Flav also had issues with the food itself, after discovering potato salad on April 2 that was being served, despite being expired since February 28. Flav is still looking into pursuing other restaurant ventures, including a Las Vegas place called "Flavor Flav's House of Flavor," expected to open May 30, and perhaps another restaurant in Davenport, Iowa as well.

Flava Flav definitely isn't Charlie Sheen, 'cause he's not winning! Check that clock on your chest FF. I think it is time to try another directionr brother.
