If you go on Kitchen Nightmares US it's because you're willing to be embarrassed on tv to get about 15k worth of remodeling done to your restaurant.

Pretty much. It's nice when a business gets turned around, but the ones that fail still get a good deal. Fresh remodel, and then they can sell it off for more than they could get before Ramsay came around to call the staff donkeys for a week.

I like his Hotel Hell series a lot more than US Kitchen Nightmares.

I enjoyed that show but it didn't really feel like a hotel fixing show, more just like Kitchen Nightmares: Hotel restaurants edition, with bonus Gordon showering scenes. I guess occasionally he commented on the room decor and cleanliness but you don't need Gordon to come to tell you to clean up the dead bugs in the room if you want customers.

Ramsay studied under Marco Piere White who is arguably worse than he is.
When White realise he'd created a monster and perhaps screaming at people might not be the best way of interaction in a high pressure environment instead of trying to reach out to Ramsay, he told him to gently caress off from the restaurant they were both in.

I worked in restaurants of varying quality for many years. There is a chapter in Kitchen Confidential that is still extremely relevant about why you shouldn't open a restaurant unless you know what you're doing. I believed eve the term "enormous fixed costs" is used and he's not wrong.

Pretty much, and apart from the massive money sink they are in general, restaurants are generally about "serving people" and the average person (Read, small business owner) has their head so far up their rear end as to be completely unaware of how to please another person.

it was hilarious because they'd end on a high note and triumphant music and a quip from gordon, but then after the credits they'd throw a little blurb saying "oh by the way this restaurant closed down like 3 months later"

It's not even very good unless you like your scrambled eggs mushy and wet. It tastes fine but the texture is awful. There's a pleasant middle ground between barely cooked mush and the desert-dry eggs you get at like a golden corral buffet and it's the only right way to scramble an egg.

I had to go watch the scrambled egg recipe. Gordon has no loving clue how to make scrambled eggs. Also he manages to burn the toast halfway through.

make it yourself and cook it till it's the texture you like. They solidify as you cook them. That's how eggs work.

But then you can't honestly say "hey everyone I made the Gordon Ramsay Egg (tm)". He goes out of his way to make them that consistency.

His scrambled eggs only really work like that if it's just used as a topping on the sourdough bread. If you're not doing it that way, just cook em a bit more to your liking.

It's your own bloody fault.
He treats the non-useless wait staff and junior cooks with a lot of respect and sympathy. Certainly more than their employers treat them.

When he insults someone, it's usually because they deserve it.

Yeah usually he saves his most brutal verbal beatdowns to the guys calling themselves an "executive chef" when they're caught tossing past-date food in the microwave for every order. If they are willing to listen at all he'll help them, it's only the stubborn arrogant "i'm the head chef!~" assholes that get the donkey treatment (usually).

Have tried his scrambled egs, his recipe gives me rear end-blasting diarrhea 2-4 hours after eating. My bowels give me 10 minutes warning to evacuate to a toilet and promise me terrific pain if I dare to hold it in past that. My body basically punishes me for not being able to cook scrambled eggs. Any other egg dish I can do just fine, but I fail at this single task. :smithicide:

Put some loving eggs and a little butter in a saucepan and push them around with a spatula for 5 minutes.

All he wants is a hug
Cook eggs until dry and fluffy and starting to brown a little then top with desired sauce and a dash of cheddar. Perfect, non cummy-eggs.

Ramsey makes the eggs that way to reminisce.

Although I watched a show with Marco Pierre White a few years ago, and he was super calm and happy. If I recall he took some time away from the business to find himself and came back in with a new outlook on people, respect, and the food. He realized he didn't have to yell to make things happen.
