What was the worst restaurant on this show? Also, general thoughts on the show as a whole?
>>7684196
I wish he would have just stuck with the heroin and spared us all.
I started to like it but it suffers from the same issues Restaurant Impossible had. Terribly scripted drama, scripted walkouts/disgusting things/crying, and most of the redesigned are black and white postmodern crap that completely removes the theme of most restaurants. Plus if you look at the success/failure rates you can clearly see it doesn't work and they went out of their way to pick the worst places. Its almost as if systemic incompetence cant be fixed with two days of yelling and then a group hug.
I mean shit each time a new episode came out I could almost predict every single scene and order. This is where the owner tells their dark secret, this is the excuse the owner will use, this is when he'll tell them all their food is garbage and to recreate the menu overnight and master it, this is when he'll wait into the freezer and see piles of shit. Its like a record.
Sebastian's. I went there with some friends because we saw it on the show, and it was disgusting. He was clearly back to making pizzas from frozen and canned ingredients.
>>7684223
Forgot about that one. That guy...lmao.
Time to watch the episode.
>>7684217
I like putting it on in the background when I am doing something else (Same as Bar Rescue/Restaurant Impossible)
At least Robert Irvine's show saves more restaurants then Ramsay's (To be fair Ramsay's seem to be WAYY MORE FAR GONE)
>>7684217
>its so bad
>i watched all the episodes
You know what the problem is? That sound effect they use every 30 seconds in every reality TV show.
>>7684248
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kQJHYFK3LTQ
>>7684196
The parisian teatro. He gave her a fucking golden menu/market and she just couldn't be bothered, so she left daddy with the bill.
Does he create the thematic directions and menus on his own? Or does he have a team of chefs/market experts working with him?
>>7684258
Didn't the owner of that place literally end up a whore?
>>7684478
I just watched that episode last week, there is a video of the owner threatening a guy with a knife.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rdAS-gxZ2FM
As usual the UK version is far superior.
>>7684249
It sounds like an echoed air horn or a long violin note
>>7684602
Well easier to do documentary concepts in Europe. Not all places suffers from shit food and staff. Some just have bad management and in one case a chef with something to prove
>>7684208
Seems like the Paki was just the owner and embarrassed while the manager was the one in denial. Manager is white or the whitest Paki ever.
The one with the crying twins at the pizza place.
>>7684208
listen at .5 speed
>THE WAYYYYGUUUUU
>>7684602
US version is overdramatized. UK version is underdramatized.
>>7684763
UK version has a lot of nice stuff regarding actually running the places, often with a focus on cost/profit right up front. Less music stings and added sound effects, it's nice.
>>7684782
Honestly if there was a way to combine the two formats it would be a great show.

Has anybody ever felt like Gordon was attacking someone who wasn't doing anything wrong but just rubbed off the wrong way to him?
>>7684830
That guy is who they were thinking of when they coined the term "toxic masculinity".
>>7684258
This one really pissed me off. She wanted Ramsay to literally work for her then she couldnt be bothered to show up and left her father holding the bag. Absolute disaster of a person.
>>7684855
i want whatever this bitch is taking. she is in another world.
>>7684602
yes, but the US version appealed to retards and i guess was more popular so it has way more episodes
>>7684208
Amy's just had terrible owners, the restaurant was far from the worst.
>>7684196
I give Gordon credit for being willing to shove his hands/fingers into all kinds of nasty ass shit through the years.
>finds 3 year old bag of rotten vegetables, immediately starts scooping them out with his bare hands
"UGH LUUK AT THIS S***"
>finds 2 inches of grime underneath deep fryer, immediately drags his fingers through it
"I'M GOIN TO F*** VOMIT"
>locates source of roach infestation, proceeds to rub them into his hair/clothing
"THEY'RE F**** EVERYWHERE"
>uses a blacklight to reveal the appalling stains all over the dining room, sniffs a particularly large stain and licks it
"I ATE AT THIS F*** BOOTH F*** BLIMEY"
>walks into bathroom and finds a rat nest, pulls one out and massages it into his genitals
"I'VE NEVER F*** SEEN ANYTHING LOIK THIS"
This show has always confused me. It's obviously staged, but to what extent? The restaurants and their owners are real, according to Yelp reviews. How do they maintain such a strict formula from episode to episode? Is the drama all completely forced on these people by a Ramsay's writers in exchange for a sum of money? How can they trust them to act well enough?
It's a mystery to me, desu yo ne.
The kitchen nightmare I have is waking up and remembering I have to go into one.
Fuck
>>7684217
I like your may may broseph
>>7684196
The UK version is better. He seems genuinely concerned about the businesses. The US version they're just trying to get him to say "cunt" as much as possible.
>>7685284
so real...
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=99-n42Xb6NQ
So, this just happened.
>>7685308
this shit is for underage fags
>>7685340
lol
>>7685299
This so much. I think my favorite episode was the one with the soul food restaurant in Brighton. It was a genuinely constructive look into the ways a business with every positive intention and genuinely good food can go wrong, and the sorts of decisions and sacrifices one must make to make one's dream work in the real world.
The later episodes and the US version are basically this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i1NfWIaYed8
>>7685208
I laughed harder at this than I should have... fuck.
>>7685304
Real unlike that staged as fuck picture.
>only tomato sauce
>slow cooker didn't break or break the tile
>I better sit down and cry over $0.50 of tomato sauce and get someone to take a picture rather than clean it up
>>7684209
His brother is/was the smackhead, Gordon never touched the stuff (he did play football in a few trials for Rangers though)
>>7684223
>Sebastian's.
That guy was so delusional he was on some entirely different level of existence. Actually, first episode with that Mafia-wannabe guy wasn't much better.
>Capri
Gordon is served 14-year-old chicken, entire restaurant has never been cleaned.
>Feista Sunrise
Kitchen is infested with roaches, basically all the the ingredients are spoiled.
>Mama Maria's
Hundreds of pounds of frozen pasta are found in the cellar. Customer gets sick from a rotten lobster tail.
>Sebastian's
Owner is pretty much insane, walks out because Gordon hurt his feefees by putting fresh pizza on the menu.
>Barefoot Bob's
Food is greasy, "frozen" in a lukewarm freezer, and dirty. Owners know absolutely nothing about their restaurant financially and Gordon literally has to employ an accountant for them. It's actually still open, but reviews have been worse than before the episode aired.
>Burger Kitchen
Owners stole $150,000 from their son to open a restaurant with frozen beef shipped from Australia. Owner's wife walks out when their chef proves he can make a better burger with fresh meat. The family has almost certainly fallen apart by now.
I could go on. I'm sure there's a lot of fakery going on, but you can't really fake hundreds of Yelp reviews and customer experiences.
>>7685182
Gordon even said the cakes were good.
>>7684561
>>7685228
If you pay attention, you can see how heavily edited it is. A lot of the show is obviously different conversations and situations stitched together. I imagine the dinner service bits are real, if heavily edited. But the bits where it's just Gordon talking to the owner/staff must be staged.
>>7685799
>>7685182
ABC had a lot of problems they kind of sidestep in the episode.
>most of the food is storebought
>kitchen is way too small for a menu with like 100 items
>Amy is a shit cook and only hires women
I caught some episodes of the English version and it actually was nice.
I had the usual Ramsay screaming at everyone and the denial, but it looked more organic. It also had something I enjoyed that was Ramsay getting the owners to help him redecorate the restaurant instead of "my team renovated all this shit overnight!"
Not to mention all the forced drama on the America version
All I know is that that show had some top tier semen demons
Also favorite episode by far
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ziXxwlQlFmk
>>7685796
>Owners stole $150,000 from their son
holy shit. I need to watch this.
>>7685841
They were from some crime family.
>>7685796
>Burger Kitchen
Fuck you anon I thought I had that erased from my mind. It's so rare to see an episode when every single person involved is extremely unlikeable, it sjust makes you wish someone would nuke the place.
>>7685841
The father was some Jew that took any criticism as anti-Semitism. Even if he wasn't a Jew there were more than enough reasons to dislike him.
>>7684263
Yup
>>7685849
Are we talking about the same episode? I think this episode was with that guy who's a relative of some well-known Aussie crime family.
>>7685799
>Gordon even said the cakes were good.
They were purchased from a local bakery and incredibly stale. Amy can't bake a loaf of soda bread.
>>7684263
yeah, and she seemed to enjoy her new job
>>7685847
>expecting anything more from Australians
>>7685857
The burger place right? Run by the jewish fellow from Australia? Son had this girlfriend that wouldnt shut up? Also some stupid internet drama with Yelpers
>>7685830
that restaurant should have its own reality show
>>7684830
>local restaurateur Sabatiello "Sammy" Settembre faces felony larceny charges after a company told police he charged more than $20,000 on a credit card given to him to pay a deposit for a Christmas party this past winter, police said.
>Last week, Settembre was charged in apparent vandalism at his former restaurant, Sabatiello's Italian Steakhouse. Police said he caused more than $20,000 worth of damage in smashed mirrors and interior glass in an incident this past December.
Do the restaurants ever work out? I don't think I've seen it happen once.
The worst part about these places is how fucking filthy they are. Every other restaurant is either infested or hasn't been cleaned in decades.
>>7685830
>DEBT
>FINANCIAL DISASTER
>FOOD
>FIGHTS
>DISGUSTING

This is exactly why the US version of this show is shit. It's cheap, fake reality TV for real fake people living real cheap lives.
>>7686752
Some of them do. Especially in the UK version, some of them end up doing quite well.
>YFW I'm re-watching The Burger Kitchen right now
Britbongs: all of the seasons are on 4od

>Son had this girlfriend that wouldnt shut up?
If she didn't live with a guy who owned a burger place I'd swear she was a vegan, too.

>>7686587
>>7686855
>>7685796

this one pisses me off the most. that cunt steals a quarter million from his son then wonders why he's pissed off? what a prick. it is partially the son's fault too though, he should have sued or something
>>7684679
The two fat ones that were literally straight out of Alice in Wonderland?
That was an amazing episode.
I can't believe people like this exist and somehow had the capital to open a restaurant.
Meanwhile, veterans are starving in the gutter
>>7685208
Apex keks
I used to deliver to one that is now out of business. The owner would be in there screaming shit at her employees with no film crew to be performing for.
>>7686934
You can't just say this shit without telling us what resto it is.
>>7684701
Oh fuck, this guy. Wanted to strangle him through the screen.
>>7686752
Capri twins genuinely seemed to love the restaurant and took Ramsey's advice to heart.
>>7685796
The Sebastian guy also called mommy and daddy the moment Ramsay said anything bad about his food.
>>7686934
sounds like every restaurant ive ever worked at
>>7687038
The trilby-son seems like he'd post here.
I know it's not kitchen nightmares, but this is the worst person ramsay has interacted with
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rBJVk4q7RUE
how can he be in the chef business if you're this bad at handling authority? Indians are the only people I will be racist towards, I have never seen a good human that was indian.
>>7684217
Did you watch UK or USA? UK is considerably less melodramatic. Of course, neither is anywhere near real.
all i remember is that one episode with the owner's hot son
god damn he's fucking cute
>>7684763
No, UK version is still overdramatized, but slightly less.
>>7684830
>shoulda punched him in the face for talking to me like that

>>7687204
I look fairly similar to that guy and my last GF specifically listed all of things as things she found attractice about me, and I even have a redder face than he does, and crooked teeth to boot. There are girls out there who are into this shit. Don't lose hope, faggot.
>>7687207
My mistake...explains why he was so nonchalant about taking his kid's money and not paying employees.
Not the worst restaurant, but David Leonard from the Black Pearl deserves to be gang raped.

>Campania
Owner jumped off a bridge. In the episode, they show Gordon meeting his children and wife, and they seemed really happy and optimistic.
>Sabiatellos
Owner racked up like $40k of debt and two criminal sentences in two months.
>Cafe Taviolini
Restaurant failed before the episode even aired, the owning family ended up dead broke.
>Trobiano's
Owner is leeching off his girlfriend's parents for financial support. Gordon basically strong-arms them into marriage, and the restaurant closes after the episode airs.
>Chappy's
Owner does the show, reverts all changes, and does multiple tabloid articles talking about how Ramsay ruined his business. Restaurant is later seized by the bank.
>>7684701
>The bitch wife pretending to gag when she bit into the burger
>>7687705

>The episodes themselves usually state if the place went under quickly, too.
i only remember a handful of episodes doing that, though this website lists the fail rate at over 70%
>>7687747
almost, not over. my bad

>i only remember a handful of episodes doing that
Well, they only have so long a period in post before the episode airs. Most failures occur within a year of the initial air date.
>>7687754
>every single restaurant in season 2 is now closed
jesus christ
So I always wondered, whenever Ramsey ventured into the kitchen and/or storage and found blatant health code violations such as this >>7684208, surely he reported it to the local agencies who then threw the book at these restaurants and owners. However, we never see any such punishments in the episodes.
Please don't tell me part of the show's budget went towards paying off the fines and legal fees these establishments "earned" in addition to their swanky new kitchen appliances and interior redesign.
This question applies to all of those restaurant make-over reality shows really.
Has any of the restaurants ever turned around so far that they became high end kind of nice?
>>7687888
no but the ones with the retard twins is apparently doing very well
one of my favorite management consulting shows ever
>>7687215
The left one looks like that kid from Twilight Zone that could wish people into the corn field.
>>7687880
Why would he report it when he's trying to fix up the place? He'd just clean it up and get another inspection done.
It's clearly fucking set-up though. They didn't forget to clean the place.
>>7684196
dinner revival
it's like restaurant impossible cut down to a half hour and on an even tighter budget, plus a complete lack of robert irvine or sledge hammers
Hotel Hell was superior.
>dat feel when you'll never expose a shitty business

nearly pissed myself laughing
>>7685208
Holy shit peed a little
>>7688643
>It's clearly fucking set-up though
yeah man, all the mold and grime and fungus and rot was brought in overnight and made to LOOK like it was sitting there for months and months
just like gordon planted that dead rat, right?
>>7685616
>slow cooker didn't break or break the tile
dunno about her tiles but slow cookers can take a hell of a beating, having dropped one that size myself
>>7684830
everyone's saying how much they hate the indians, but holy fuck, italians are just as obnoxious
oversensitive greasy manchildren who can't take any criticism
You pig, you French pig!!
>>7687076
Funny, the Indian restaurant from the UK show is the comfiest episode Ramsay's ever done:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_gd6Uxe4OWo
Ramsay literally just talks to the chef about his childhood foods and then takes everyone out to play cricket.
The only real problems it had were the owner having poor taste in décor and a lack of communication amongst staff.
Although I concede that him bringing Ramsay in was probably just a marketing stunt to begin with.
>>7685304
Camel toe?
>>7686880
I don't blame him for not suing, it's hard to sue your own parents even if they fucked you over.
I actually have a bit of respect since when he found that shit out, he buckled down and went to work at the restaurant even though he didn't want to. Only one m
>>7685825
Gordon admits that he plays up his angry persona on the US shows. Kind of annoys me Netflix doesn't have the UK version.
On his other shows when he actually goes to good restaurants, he's extremely encouraging and nice to the staff (because they're competent)
Peters and Moe where the best

Imagine living with this firetruck of a woman.

gordon could beat the shit out of pretty much anyone he's been a dick to in the shows history.
>>7689320
haha, now I can't unhear the fucking fog horn
>>7689324
yeah i think they send a team to the restaurant ahead of time to make sure everyone there is a manlet or woman before he shows up to yell at them
i would seriously pay $100 to watch some celebrity boxing where gordon ramsay had a fair fight with someone that pushed his teeth in
>enjoy the first half of each episode and the hilarious incompetence of kitchen employees
>immediately turn it off when he has to give marriage counseling to the owners
>>7689328
who would that be?
like, he'd win all the obvious matchups.
oliver? first round knockout.
martha stewart? he'd win by decision
>>7689333
ramsay would cry like a little bitch
>>7689332
this.
>>7689335
yeah, irvine got this in a celebrity boxing match, he's huge and fit.
Gordon would still win in a fight to the death on the streets though, dude just has that "bite your nose off with no hesitation" mentality.
>>7689253
What the fuck was wrong with that guys eyes?
>>7685830
>that server's enormous shit-eating grin as she points Ramsay to every disgusting item on the menu
Holy shit this is fantastic
I don't understand why any of these employees stick around at these restaurants if they aren't family or otherwise invested. Shitty owner? Go bartend/cook somewhere less shitty.
>>7689357
Why is she so perfect?
>>7689405
i can speak from personal experience...
ive worked in a shitty dive bar before. the owner was an alcoholic 50 something year old woman who still dressed/acted like she was still in her sorority years. her husband was rich as fuck and the bar was pretty much just something to keep her busy. she would only be there like ~3 days a week and when she was there she spent the whole time getting so drunk she would have to leave her car there and get a ride home
the business was utterly mismanaged
>i would be the only cook scheduled for a saturday morning
>doors would be locked
>wait staff and i would be outside locked out
>have to call the drunk owner to wake her up and unlock the restaurant
>literally customers already waiting when the doors are unlocked
>flat top is ice cold
>no food prepped
>tickets coming in
why did the wait staff stay? because it was the easiest fucking job ever. when you boss is a total piece of trash alcoholic that expected her business to lose money the expectations and pressure are basically non existent.
the wait staff and kitchen would just hang out and make jello shots and drink at work.
the kitchen would take turns going to hang out and smoke weed during work
people stole sooo much shit/money/alcohol
im sure the same shit so going on at these other places
>>7685304
Once did that with a deep fryer, thank fuck it was cold.
But the mess, holy shit.
>>7689429
Was the food any halfway decent?
>>7689357
I got annoyed with this show and the Italian mobster bro wannabes. This woman makes me want to watch the show again. She was fantastic.
> Romanian accent
"It is for the best, Rita"
Give me my Romanian princess now please.
>>7689662
She turns into a total self-serving bitch in part 2 though.
>>7689505
fucking total trash food. was a decent job though for a while because i got paid to drink, smoke weed and hang out with whores.
most of the people that came to the bar just did it because cheap drinks + walking distance from campus/campus housing/apartments
>>7689665
Let's be honest, gleefully siccing Ramsay on your employer is pretty self-serving to begin with.
>>7689703
It was more like she was taking tables from the other servers and not giving the bus boy his share of the tips. She was basically making more money than anyone else working there and when the owners told her that shit needed to stop she just packed her shit and left.
>>7684208
>I thought the Indian place in New York was the worst. Dude was in complete denial. Non-whites are disgusting. Ban me.
What's the name of that one?
>>7689720
None of that should have been a surprise is what I'm saying.
She was still kind of a bitch in the first part but she was having fun so it was cute.

Why does Chef Ramsay have such a boner for risotto? It's heavily featured on every show he does.
>>7690336
Because you gotta KEEP STIRRING
>>7690336
Because the reality TV shows are scripted to ensure fuckups & the resultant swearing which people want to see. Risotto requires constant attention (stirring), therefore it's deliberately chosen in order to make things more difficult for the cooks on the show. If easy dishes were picked then the show wouldn't be as entertaining.
Do you think the food that he says is terrible on this show is actually bad, or is it just bad relative to the fact that he eats 3-Michelin Star quality food every night? I mean, millions of people use frozen meatballs in their spaghetti and boil frozen ravioli every night and think it comes out delicious.
>>7690484
I doubt he's holding the cooks to 3-star standard on the TV shows, but since they're about "fine dining" he's definitely applying a stricter standard than some flyoverland wal-mart shopper.
>>7690484
im sure its mostly bullshit. everything is always irredeemably terrible and inedible and he pushes it away in disgust after barely trying it.
>chicken with cheese melted on it
>takes a bite
>goes outside and vomits
i mean how bad could you fuck up melting cheese on meat that it would actually make you want to purge?
>>7690546
>i mean how bad could you fuck up...meat that it would actually make you want to purge?
Have you *watched* the show? They can fuck it up really, really, badly.
>>7684196

>>7690561
Sure thing buddy.
>>7690326

Gordon seems like a nice guy when you're not a bad cook trying to act like a good cook. I'd have a beer with him.
>>7684196
The one mexican restraunt with the Sun Logo, where they kept a literal trashcan of refried beans.
>>7690546
It seems like hes just being a prick about it, until you see later in the episode that everything in the fridge was legitimately rotting and therefore probably ACTUALLY that bad
whats the episode where he yells :its raw"

>>7691000
He probably wanted to deal with less idiots. Can't blame him, It's entertaining to watch but it would wear on me to constantly deal with deluded, incompetent fucktards when i own several michelin restaurants.
>>7687218
I thought crime family members had integrity amongst eachother?
Have I been watching too many movies?
>>7693257
No, you haven't been watching enough.
The kid was in on it, Burger Kitchen wasn't even their first restaurant.
They were each supposed to get a million, along with the rest of the family, but the father dicked up the process and ended up having to sue for a lesser share.
The whole episode was a plug for that book he randomly gifted to Gordon, which they've been trying to get turned into a movie or miniseries.
>>7684855
was everybody employed there gay? not /pol/ but genuinely curious.
>>7684209
He shit on your restaurant?

I believe that is a cat, sir.
>>7685208
Literally laughed till I cried.
But I did put in 35 hours in the last 48...
I can't stop crying.
>>7690947
The only thing differentiating this from a particularly terrible scripted network drama is the poor production values. Are there people who actually consider nonsense like that to be "reality"?
>>7696441
same shit. it's not a racoon.
>>7696456
yes.
>>7684830
he thoroughly deserved to lose his business
Remember the restaurant run by literal hoarders?

Which restaurant was run by a mother and sun?
That one hit me too deep.
>>7687705
>>Campania
>Owner jumped off a bridge.
The fuck, you're correct. Damn. He was doing quite well too.
>http://www.nj.com/entertainment/dining/index.ssf/2010/09/joe_cerniglia_suicide_campania.html
>>7690484
I have no doubt that the food is actually that bad. Looking at the state of the kitchens and the storage, there is no doubt.
Plus, Ramsay does very rarely compliment something when it is decent. Like that one lady who did all the deserts, they were bretty good apparently.
>>7697006
Ramsay is hot as fuck.
>dat confidence
>dem creative insults
>being a top chef and still /fit/ as hell
Fucking marriage material.
>>7696976
fucking hell the US version is terrible
why couldn't they at least keep ramsay narrating
>>7686867
>tfw he's got a hot supportive girlfriend
>tfw you're still jacking off to chinese cartoons
at least i've got my waifu
>>7685308
Fuck, that was bad. Ramsays English accent made it even worse. He enunciates but you can tell he isn't English.
>>7697230
They have to over edit everything to be flashy as hell so they can keep the people that still actually watch television.
>>7697636
Everyone watches television, what do you do?
>>7697427
>hot supportive girlfriend
She seemed like a gold digging crack-whore to me, possibly a meth-head.
Saying that she's anything more than a 1/10 let alone "hot" just shows what a pathetic virgin you are.
>>7685830
Holy fuck that Sara is a fucking cunt, good stuff. Also, Lisa became more and more fuckable. Maybe I'm drunk.
>>7697427
> hot supportive girlfriend
Did we watch the same episode? She wasn't ugly but she was far from hot. She was also clearly a manipulative bitch. He was just a weakling.
>>7685208
lol
>>7697784
My TV is used exclusively for playing pro evo when me and my mates are pre drinking. Watching TV shows and watching TV are different.
>>7696020
yeah
he's cute and you're probably ugly
>>7697006
>that waitress wants to boink him
Who doesn't?
>>7696976
YAY IT'S THE EPISODE WITH THE CUTE SON
>>7698198
This reply actually made me homosexual. Try and stop being such a faggot, lest you infect the population and end humanity.
>>7698212
wanna hook up, hot stuff?
>>7698223
I'm probably too high test for you.
>>7689253
Is this one still open?
>>7698240
pics or it didn't happen
>>7698260
Pics of what? Balls or biceps? I'm also very proud of my calf muscles, they look like they were chiselled from stone. That was from being a fat teen.
>>7698269
any pic is fine
>former fat kid, now muscular
hottest bodytype desu
>>7698277
Need to get hold of a camera, I don't have a mobile and I'm not going to use a pic from my facebook. My flatmate will be home soon so will use her phone and try not to tell her how some anon will be using my shit for lewd things.
>>7698290
webcam desu
>>7698290
Can you take some pics of your bare ass?
God my dick is raging at the mere thought.
Are you a top or a bottom anon?
>>7698306
I am not a bottom. This is not up for discussion either. I'm hetero as well though. Sorry lad.
>>7698306
I forgot to mention, my ass is a legend around my parts for the amount of hair. It's like a sheep or something.
>>7698323
>hairy ass
just fucking post a picture already oh my god
>>7698329
Haha, fucking hell you queers are genuinely queer. I told you why no pics yet. Just wait a bit and I promise to deliver. Gonna be weird asking my flatmate to take a pic of my ass though.
>>7698349
if your ass is truly that legendary i'm sure she won't mind it being on her phone
>>7698309
Can we be facebook friends? I love fag stags.
>>7684701
King of Aussie shitposters
>>7685049
I feel like this sentence sums up the US history in general
>>7698372
>I'm not a fag but I do like this attention, I hope I don't disappoint! But no, I only have fb friends I know.
A fag stag is a straight guy who loves gay men, has a lot of gay friends, etc.
My slut of a flatmate won't be home anytime soon, she text me and said she is speaking to another guy I'm trying to find a photo that I can crop with no identifying features but there are hundreds to get through. Please bear with me. I want to show you mad poofs my sexiness. xxx

Success breeds jealousy.
We can't all be #1
>>7698494
You could always knock on your neighbors door and ask to borrow their cell for a hour or so so you can take some selfies with it.
>>7698495
Have you ever tried wagoo beef?
>>7698520
failure breeds contempt, we can't be seen associating with you.
>>7698494
Would you ever let a gay guy blow you?
>>7690701

>>7684561
That was the one where it was so obviously a front for some shady dealings right?
Think my flatmate is coming home horny, gonna go get sucked off. Will post pics but it is gonna be a few hours lads. sorry.

>inheritance
Well, he didn't earn the money anyway.
I liked the show, but you can tell that the American version had strayed from what Gordon wanted to do. By the final seasons he'd walk in a place and see that it hit all his pet peeves and just go through the motions of what he was expected to do for the most part.
The European version at least you got to see Gordon's passion and how he genuinely tried and the success rate was higher.
But you'd run into so many restaurants run by people without culinary training, without experience in the business, and people without much business sense. Yes, those people REALLY need help but there's not much anyone can do to pull them out of the hole they've dug.
Although from what I've read, Gordon Ramsey himself wasn't scripted. His producers would pull shit without his knowledge though.
>>7698910
The real draw of the Murican version was they would get Gordon to start arguing with the small business owner, didn't really matter over what, and then film the shit out of it.
That and the rotten food in the fridges. And the interior makeovers. Everything else just tied those three things together.
>>7690701
They are just so adorable, they should dress up as the twin sisters from The shining for Halloween.
>>7698947
You had one job.
>>7690701
Was that the one where he made the owners fight each other?
>>7684910
>"toxic masculinity".
Nice cuckspeak, faggot.
>>7699553
Perfectly fitting for that guy.

How do these people pass health inspection?
>>7689249
Did they take it down? I remember watching it on there a year or two back, might be worth double checking.
>>7697427
>chinese cartoons
they are japanese, you racist autist
>>7685616
I think that is vinyl flooring anon
>>7689335
Just because you are strong and built does not mean you know how to fight. Big guys can get taken down if you know what you are doing. But Irvine could be a judo expert, I don't know.

here in italy we have kitchen nightmares too starring based Cannavacciuolo
>>7685208
Fucking hell that made me laugh
The italian chef applying for a job at the former michelin-starred restaurant Gordon is helping has always been one of my favourite moments
>what do you cook were you're currently working?
>Steak, some chicken and a lot of microwave
>I'm sorry what?
>Microwave

Man, I wanted to see those guys succeed. They seemed like nice people.
What was that one italian restaurant that had that bigass sausage pizza that looked fucking INCREDIBLE? I remember seeing it and thinking that ramsay was a fuckin dumbass for saying it was nasty.
>>7703541
Did they close?
Internet says they were still open as of last year.
>>7684561
Lol is this why ABC closed down? Wondered what happened to these bastards.
>>7685208
The thing is that as a chef maybe he shouldn't touch all that crap and risk a contact dermatitis or worse. Chefs are supposed to value their hands on principle.
>>7690393
>Risotto
>you gotta KEEP STIRRING
But why? I usually let it rest until the water is almost gone and then stir for the last bit so that it doesn't burn at the bottom.

Lisa is very fuckable. She got a Jennifer Aniston look to her.

She reminded me more of pic related.

this is one of the main reasons i stopped watching Hells kitchen plus all the other editing, it just really pissed me off editors went full retard on that show.
>>7704554
Dude that looks fucking great.
>>7684701
Legit first time I was ashamed to be an ausfag.
>>7684196
Watched several episodes and later got tired of the heavy handed reality shtick.
Any time I saw this show in the TV guide, I was wishing UK Kitchen Nightmares or the F-Word was on instead.
>>7684855
All I want in life is to kiss Frauke Petry on the lips. That's literally all I want.
>ever episode he talks about getting fresh ingredients
>every episode he tries to talk about cutting down menu and making simple shit

Gordon actually likes the food and the staff aren't psycho

This one, the one brother Moe is an absolute moron.
the chef is a pig and a creep.
The other brother Remi had his shit together but was surrounded by morons
>>7706770
This episodr makes me believe that not every drama is scripted. The fuckin chef's eyes starts twitching like crazy when he lies.
