Customers who turned up at the opening of Mom's Spaghetti restaurant in Detroit were in for a surprise. The owner of the restaurant, Eminem, was present to serve the guests on its opening day on Wednesday.

Eminem had earlier posted an advertisement about his restaurant on Instagram, writing, "Detroit- 2day is THE day. Come down for our pasta debut! 🍝 #MomsSpaghetti Grand Opening @ 5pm.
