She must’ve have disabled the smoke sprinkler alarms in the ceiling.

Smoke sprinkler alarms in a kitchen? Think about it....every time you burn a burger the entire kitchen would get soaked down. I don't think they have a sprinkler system in the kitchen unless it would be activated by direct flame or extremely high heat. :)

Through there are still regular sprinklers in the ceiling (pretty far away from the food) most commercial kitchens have some type of compressed gas extinguisher system like halon. Much better to put the fire out on the grill long before a sprinkler head is activated covering everything in 15’ with black rusty water. The smoke detectors just set off the fire alarm and I’ve seen them go off a fair amount in kitchens but it would take more than a cigarette or a blunt unless you were blowing it directly into the detector.
