Sardar Biglari, the CEO of Steak ‘n Shake, sports a Chopard watch, custom-made suit, and Christian Bale hair, and he is known to many as the next Warren Buffett. Oh, he’s also installed photographs of himself inside all of his fast-food chains. Plus, he started at Western Sizzlin, cashed out of Friendly’s, and just lost a heartbreaking election to the board at Cracker Barrel. Love him or hate him, this is not your average kitchen rat. [NYT]
