Welcome back to Shit People Steal, in which we ask restaurateurs what items in their restaurant have been (or are frequently) stolen.

Bearnaise has lost its beloved bulldog. Charlotte, which has been a fixture at Spike Mendelsohn's Capitol Hill restaurant since it opened over the summer, was stolen November 8, according to a rep. The bulldog had been purchased by Micheline Mendelsohn during a trip to Paris when scouting artwork for the restaurant.
"We want her back," said the restaurant in a statement. "She served as a mascot for the restaurant and the most low-maintence pet ever. No grooming required." The restaurant is offering a reward: the thief will not be banned from Bearnaise if the statue is returned.
