idk, if Ramsay could have something like a 90% success rate, it really would work wonders.

It's unusually suspicious how formulaic are his episodes.

>failing restaurant is having problems; there's drama involved
>Gordon comes in, either utterly suspicious at first, or utterly unsure why they would have problems
>this come to a boil when it's a restaurant night where their restaurant service is abysmal
>very soon, he understands why absolutely everything in that restaurant is wrong and horrible, and proceeds to thinks it's utterly hopeless unless he fixes things
>at the very end, he brings drama to a boil, after clashing heads with the owners, at the end convincing the staff the restaurant has to change, (tears, crying)
>then, the makeover
>everyone is really surprised
>then hopeful
>then the first night has problems getting adjusted
>but they eventually pull through
>Gordon leaves, everything is hopeful, and even any drama that appeared between the staff was resolved, (father with sons, husbands with daughters, families, etc.)
>they live happily ever after

Really, if you fucking think about it, this show is a genius combination of soap operas and kitchen shows.

It's formulaic because that's what happens when a successful person meets with b tier managers. He knows they are all the same.
He focuses on the problems which are usually personal issues and temporarily fixes them to get the restaurant going.
Once he leaves they go back to their old ways and go broke.

So in simple words, a soup opera?

Yeah, it's sort of like Biggest Loser.

Actually that sort of TV is even trashier than this, and the success rates after they leave teh show are even worse.

None of this shit matters as they’re just following the script.

when you're a shit resteaurant or hotel that cant make money, like plenty of the cases from the episodes are, a renovation and print work done by actual designers is something you wouldve not been able to afford ever that might actually let people give you the benefit of the doubt. is right people dont change their shit habits unless they cant sleep at night because of them and really make a change. Atleast the guests can sleep in a nicely painted room for a year or so and im sure theres a couple that take the chance they are given and really pick themselves up after all that.

Breaking news, fag, it's a TV show and thus 100% scripted.
But I'll admit that hell's kitchen used to be a guilty pleasure of mine, seeing toilet restaurants getting trashed is really funny.

For me, it's Winefu.

He does it all the time because it's the single easiest way to slash food cost.
If you're in bumfuck mcflyover and their menu is 900 items deep its because every single ingredient is frozen garbage. You can't keep 500 fresh ingredients.

The problem is you are all referring to the US show. We all know he is given 2 days to turn shift around and then go to the next 30 restaurants within 3 months to reach this seasons deadline

Meanwhile the UK show has a far more personal touch. Usually as UK restaurants is a trained chef who decides to set up on their own instead of a man who just decides to open a restaurant and hires first chef he meets. The difference being the owner/chef in the UK show is typically disillusioned and Gordon turns up, gives him some verbal abuse and then reminds him why they love cooking. Gordon might change the seating layout at best not much decoration change

Wow, it's almost like he's exploiting gormless business owners to make insult-porn about their shitty restaurants and food practices for his shitty TV show and actually has little to no intention of helping them succeed in life beyond a handful of minor suggestions that will in no way outweigh the crippling blow that their restaurant landing on TV and being inevitably compared to a festering shitheap run by drooling spastics will be to their business.

>Watching the shit US Version with jumpcuts and dramatic music every five seconds instead of the comfy british version

There are some episodes where he does fail.
I think theres even one where he absoluteky gives up half way through. He just walks away and the show ends.

sounds like you UK fags are the ones that can't handle the bants from Gordon and need him to talk quietly to you like he does for the children's versions

Have you watched the UK version st all?

>being filmed hitting a woman as a highly profitable public figure
even if he was in the right he'd lose literal millions in PR, not worth it.
By not backing down and just telling her not to raise her hands he comes off squeeky clean and she looked like a violent retard.

>that border hopping chef who couldnt cook a meatball

I Watched one where he helped some French guy and literally just whispered to him the whole episode he also changed like 2 things on the menu

Really, speaking from experience, problem is your owner or manager doesn't know the first thing about how kitchens operate beyond "they prepare food". You cannot just approach it from a business standpoint.

>laundering front

you're giving that ape a lot of credit

Menu design is pretty much 100% of what chefs get hired to do.

Designing and costing out the menu is what makes or breaks a restaurant. It's pretty much the one thing that separates a head chef from a cook.

never race mix

Do they have a pack of gopniks waiting in front of the place to "renovate" it?

He should have kicked her out on the spot. Anyone who spergs out and reacts to criticism with violence doesn't deserve another chance

It's a celebrity one though so I'm sure there's all sorts of rules about that. They're obviously all there only to further their careers and make money, there's probably some rule about not being able to kick people out without approval from the company since all they really want to do is make a TV show people watch, Gordon doesn't actually have any power here.
Like the talent shows, as if they just leave it up to 3 people to decide what happens when there's millions to be made

That's because losing weight isn't really the hard part, it's keeping the weight off. I say this as someone who has had weight problems my whole life. I've always been maybe 20-50 pounds overweight, and a few years back I shed a lot of it, just to get back into my shitty eating habits.
I'm working on it again, but I'll have to actually change my lifestyle instead of just a temporary diet like last time

Also dont do "le whacky" dish names like naming a steak with fries "the ranchers morning" or shit like that

season 1, 4, 7, 9, and 10 are the only good ones, everything else is either mediocre or unbearable.

1 was interesting, but I'm surprised Gordon actually let the psycho win. Especially when he did underhanded tactics while everyone else assumed you had to play it straight and honest

>When they lose and it comes time to nominate someone he nominates the stronger chef, even though he didn't actually cause their loss

>Later with the final two contestants he starts purposefully making crab risotto without any crab in hopes the other chef doesn't notice it, and it makes the other chef look bad
Granted the crab thing could have been prevented if the other guy paid attention, but it was still a sneaky way to play the game

i like one just because it's so subdued and Ralph gets along with everyone, the camaraderie is great. Same reason why season 9 (or is it 8?) is great, even with elise and carrie bitching it up those guys are fucking bros and it's wonderful. almost every other season has legitimately psychotic people on it who fuck one and other over, I think out of the what, 15 winners, maybe 3 or 4 have been decent people and the rest are shit. you can tell he feels the same way just by the fact that he only ever has the same 3 or 4 season winners come back.

The redpill is that if he gave all restaurant owners his secrets to how he runs his own businesses and various other industry secrets he'd just be fucking himself over and making a bunch of random plebs rich. Instead he uses them to make him money, as the truth is that the food industry is predatory and extremely competitive. Restaurants poach talent from one another, customers, ingredients, they work with finite resources.

>implying a good food and nice atmosphere isnt what keeps customers coming back to resteraunts

Because most of the people running the restaurants are mentally ill or just extremely ignorant and/or stupid. You can clean the room of a pig but it'll be a mess shortly after. Mindsets are the hardest to change. The people running these restaurants are often middle aged or older and if they have been stupid all this time it's unlikely one man is going to be able to change this.

I wonder how he feels giving shitty people fame and a career. Not much he can do about it since he can't exactly rig the competition in the end game at least

Food is the one area where there is such a thing as bad publicity. No matter the magic Gordon works people are going to have rotten food and uncleanly staff burned into their minds forever.

he flat out refused to let Hollie get the job at the Savoy, blamed it on her not having the right papers or whatever. think they settled out of court because he just refused to let her ruin his reputation with her shit talent/slutty demeanor. should have done the same to Nona.

The producers do editing tricks to make us like/hate people in the show.
>That time when they pulled footage from a few nights before to justify a elimination and got caught out because an already gone contestant was in the background.
People never understand what it means to "fake" Hells Kitchen. They think it means faking the RAW Scallops, no that is general shit cooking. What is fake is the background drama and decisions on who makes it past that night. Usually the best cooks get weeded out early, and it becomes more about who is more entertaining to look at and who will make the last 2.

no, but they're super depressing.

The race is long, but it has a finish line. In 6 months time you know why you started now, I recommend checking out /fat/ threads on /fit/ They helped me a lot.

It's just fucking food. There's nothing more cringe than these fucking gastro elitist retards. Get a real job you good for nothing wastes of space.

I'll check them out. I used to check out /fast/ but that just leads to losing weight and gaining almost all of it back when you finally start eating again because you overeat

Restaurants in general fail at insanely high rates so if it's actually 80% like you say then he's got them doing better than average.

It's hard to go a week without eating and then not pig out. Not impossible though, I'll give you that

t. hot pockets-connoisseur

Its formulaic because its edited that way. People are simpletons and they need the same structure in order to watch a show. They want to see a bad restaurant, ramsey yelling, reconciliation and the money shot of how happy everyone is.
All of the restaurants are real, they were there and filmed but in post production they make it the formulaic epiodes you knows.

>unusually formulaic
bro it's common knowledge that US kitchen nightmares is among the most scripted shit on TV
many accounts of the waitresses being hired purposely a few weeks prior to filming
the first reopening night is always unrealistically PACKED so they can fail on purpose
even the customers are extras scripted to bitch more about the food they're being served on those first nights
there's always one character who doesn't like the remodeling for about one scene, usually after the villain has changed for the better despite being the biggest asshole for the majority of the ep

only the UK version is of any value whatsoever, and sadly it's actually really good

The manlet was you wasnt it?

>the first reopening night is always unrealistically PACKED so they can fail on purpose
I've always thought that's just because they advertise super heavily that Gordon Ramsay is helping the place and will be there that night, so people come in droves.
Same thing for why people act like such food snobs with the cameras around, because they know they'll end up on the show.

But a ton of it is definitely scripted, like the formula for all the episodes

>Dismissing based 6
Bitch.

I think it's a combo of both advertising and hired extras, and I meant the first night when gordon is observing how they run things, but I wouldn't be surprised if reopening night is hugely boosted by production too

the customers are definitely encouraged to send food back during filming, whether they're real or extras

the show is about the fucked up people, not the business. if you dont know that by now then urtarded

There are plenty of restaurants that managed to pull through and are still in business years later with good reviews. Even a few where the owner is fucking stubborn.

Wasnt there one restaurant that failed after Ramsay tried helping and the female owner became an escort later on?

you forgot employ as few blacks and mexicans as possible

that wrist catch was pretty slick

that dude was 100% autistic

I just rewatched the old seasons and in almost every case the retarded restaurants disregard his advice and later fail.

The way he barely even recoils is fucking slick as shit. Sure he moves his head back, but he doesn't jump back, and immediately keeps his cool. Doesn't even fucking raise his voice at her

sign of a true leader, undistracted by things in the heat of the moment but 100% goal oriented

I've often felt Ramsay to be similar to the better NCOs I've had the pleasure of experiencing

he's like a black belt in judo or something right? he's at least got sparing experience, not to mention the rough shit he dealt with because of his father/brother

Most of the people in the show are walking disasters, that’s what makes the show interesting. So of course most of them can’t keep it up and end up going back to their fucked ways.

That's like saying why doesn't Warren Buffett tell us how to invest? Or why doesn't Brett Favre teach me how to throw? Most of the restauranteurs are pleb investors who thought it would be a good idea to open a restaurant because it was their dream/they like to cook/or they're taking over a family legacy.

>has time to throw not one but two shoes
It really was a different time

It's fucking staged idiots. Ramsey has like 10 bodyguards off camera in that room.

>B-BUT 70'% OF THE RESTAURANTS SHUT DOWN ANYWAY
Yeah and it'd be 100% if Gordon never came.

Ramsey is one of the best chefs-restaurateur in modern human history. What he says IS LAW.

>tasty

Besides, it’s also healthier than most vegetable oils. But yeah keep on choking on sugar and blaming on butter for your fat body.

>gets angry instead of comprehending the post

Stop being retarded he was saying why anyone wouldn't use butter

Has anyone actually been to ramseys restaurant? Its a fucking mess

These days he would get blacklisted even just for defending himself.

I don't think he cares since who the fuck cares about the winners of hells kitchen when choosing a chef

That's Mike. I worked with him years ago. He's a very cool guy, but ruthless.

this. Difference between the original UK series and US is night and day. He dumbed it down for burgers.

Anyone remember the best episode where the famous poker player's daughter restaurant owner became a homeless prostitute in France, but Ramsey managed to save a young hopeful chef who is now a famous head chef at some restaurant?

If people followed his fucking advice they wouldn't close down. Go look at the success stories from people who actually cared about their restaurant.

You must know a ton of people submit for his show just to bring attention to them and then revert right back when he leaves. Also the restaurant business is tough there is a ton of competition and location matters.

Sean Connery was right when he said sometimes you just need to slap a bitch to put her back in her place and let her know what's what.

Name a more cocksucked by the internet celebrity than Gordon Ramsay.

I think he's talented, but ultimately lucked out in life and found the golden spoon. There are many hard working talented chefs, but none of them are Gordon Ramsay status.

I used to think he's a tough but fair person, but since he's done his botox injection he's just another rich celebrity faggot with ugly faggot kids that gonna live off his name and fortune. Yaaaawn.

It’s so formulaic because it’s edited that way. Scenes aren’t chronological. Ramsay will cotton on pretty fast what the problems are.

he's so fucking full of himself - genuinely acts like a spoiled cunt (watch his hot wings interview)

Sounds like I'd make a killer chef with my engineering experience then.

Yeah, if you expect him to legit help you in a business like that you're hopeless.

It's pretty simple to run a successful restaurant but a lot of places seem to fail at it.

>dont have a large menu because that means your chefs need to memorize hundreds of other items to prep and ingredients to get for items that people might never order in the first place
>more time and preparation for the remaining items so it's delicious
>place has to be clean and look good

That's pretty much it. A lot of restaurant owners think that making the menu bigger would mean more customers when all it does is lowers quality and increases the cost of running the restaurant because you're buying multiple ingredients that barely gets used. Every successful restaurant uses the same ingredients in different configurations and keeps the menu reasonable sized without forcing their employees to work to death prepping them.

That's why you see asian restaurants having massive menus but the people work themselves to death just by running it or a small diner with a 4-5 page menu.

>saves about 1/4 despite how unbelievably shit they all are
not bad honestly, some of them ended up pretty successful

>fail on the most basic business type there is
>can't even capitalize on a push from a major celebrity, which some businesses pay loads for

Majority of those restaurants were balls deep in debt and no matter what would they do they were going to close. If he saved 20% of those he did better than expected.

Gordon visits kebal stall when?

He only visits failing businesses. Those fucks are making bank. Cheap ingredients sold at a premium on hotspots.

he drastically changes the menu to a few simple items and gives the management a kick up the arse which helps massively also the decorating and redesign of the restaurant won’t come cheap half the people on the show are pond scum that don’t deserve help having the cheek to charge people for shite microwaved food should be a crime

Any verdict on hotel hell? I've only seen clips on youtube but it looks like it has some real train wrecks of places that Gordon visits.

absolutely based, also gives us a nice gratuitous ass shot in every episode

she was slapping his finger out of her face you dolt

Some of the places he visited actually went bankrupt because of his help.

They already had an established niche of customers who actually like their trashy style and don't want it any other way. So when Ramsey steps in and uproots everything he makes the restaurant act like something it's not and as a result the business loses its indentity.

>saves your business
>you're too retarded to do the simple things he told you to do

Why is Gordon (and other food critics) obsessed with "simple, rustic" food anyway?
If I go to a restaurant I want to eat something fancy enough that I couldn't make myself at home. I don't want a plain burger made with fresh ingredients because I can do that myself and don't need to pay out of my nose for it.

Food so simple and cheap even these restaurants could cook it in quantity. Then they proceed to fuck it up, it's hilarious.
What you describe is pretty much why a lot of these places fail and no one visits them. They offer nothing except a high price.

because the chefs at bottom tier restaurants are shit and need simple recipes which are carried by quality of ingredients
some of the absolute retard chefs on this show holy shit

This is the most kino Hell's Kitchen intro.

>also gives us a nice gratuitous ass shot in every episode
Gordon's I hope.

As seen in 24 Hours to Hell and Back, Gordon Ramsay can cure years of alcoholism in a single day.

envy, what else?

lost

because they would need to hire a chef and not some microwave wanker plus their regulars wouldn't be able to afford it

>Name a more cocksucked by the internet celebrity than Gordon Ramsay.
Keanu, Tom Hanks, Robin Williams, Bill Murray

He puts way too much emphasis on the food. I wouldn't eat food from a 5-star chef in the dumps he eats at, most of which are renovated houses with not enough windows and with tables squeezed too close together.

This is how a restaurant makes its success:
>good positioning so it's easy to get to for the regulars, and easy to find for new customers
Then
>nice interior that you want to stay in
Then
>nice service
Then
>decent food (not that Americans and brits can tell what decent food is)

Gordon comes in, screams at the chefs for not bringing in customers, then leaves.

the one time where he truly gave up was with Amy's Baking Company. other times he "gives up" and then comes back the next day and the owners promise to change and all that shit.

Identity = roaches everywhere, rotting food in the walkin, and microwaved frozen shit served to customers?

Hypothetically Gordon has some magic secrets
How would helping out a restaurant in bum fuck nowhere with these secrets ever threaten him?

that's not really relevant to the anecdote

Were they shit restaurants before he showed up or were they just comfy "old people" restaurants that were too cheap and weren't hip enough for Ramsay?

he and his wife could MASS GENOCIDE with their BARE HANDS

I've worked in restaurants before and a lot of them fail because managers or HRs are very petty. They're family runned businesses, or runned by a group of friends who can't separate their personal lives from businesses.

Waiters get treated like shit, and chefs are working long hours without breaks.

Michelin Star restaurants are pretty snooty and the clients tend to act like spoil manchildren.

It's not scripted though. Restaurants are stressful as fuck and runned by sociopaths.

Nah, women in catering are bitches. They like to act like they own the place.

Word gets around that Gordon Ramsey is in town filming a Kitchen Nightmares show and people pack into the place just to witness how shitty it is or be on tv. Why would they bother hiring extras when people do that shit for free?

Maintaining a restaurant is difficult at the best of times. Even Gordon has had to close a few of his. It's one of the most difficult businesses to run. No surprise that the restaurants that go on that show in the first place still end up closing. Mostly due to irreversible financial difficulties that no amount of customers can fix.

Why can't Gordon just make a kino show like the UK kitchen nightmares again?

UK kitchen nightmares was on channel 4

You fucks still aren't providing a source on her being an escort. How much did she charge?

Are you really that stupid? The American version of KN 100% scripted; they have the same stupid camera angles and music ques, its max cringe. The European version is not and is actually good though (but Gordon realized he couldn't make as much money).

My mistake. All seems the same to me lad.

Restaurants don't fail because they "aren't hip enough for Ramsay." They fail because they're unpopular with people in general. There's money in the till or there isn't.

Called Hot Ones.
Granted I'm sure those wings were as spicy as the devil's anus, but I've never seen someone douse the flames as aggressively as he did.
Is it because he needs his tastebuds or because he came from Bland-as-hell England?

>camera angles and music ques
That's not what scripted means user.

That french guy was competent unlike the us chefs. He ended up with a Michelin star restaurant a few years later

I've worked at restaurants and I can safely say that's how chefs, cooks, waiters, and management act like in a lot of these restaurants. Gordon Ramsey turns these businesses around because he's a better manager than cook.

The producers loved the idea of him sneaking deliberately bad food past the chefs that they literally made it into a reoccurring challenge in the show.

If that's not the sign of reality show kino, I don't know what is

Why does reddit love him?
He's poisonous masculinity personified.

Do they get temporary stockholm syndrome when they watch him.

pathetic

This.

Nothing else matters in a restaurant if the food isn't consistently good.

Yeah but I've gotten the feeling sometimes that some (not all) of the restaurant he goes to are places I would probably like personally for being cheap and decent. Ramsay has a way of turning all the restaurants into the types of yuppie "wine aunt" type joins that I despise. I realize that is what makes money though.
Fine, I agree. I'm not the original user you were talking to so I don't really feel like I need to defend his stupid argument. The American show is not "scripted" but it is so obviously staged that it makes the show painful to watch. Just look at the European version for juxtaposition: it actually has unique people and problems and you can actually learn something by watching that version.
Oh I realize that. But like I said above, the American show is obviously staged.

episode?

>but it is so obviously staged
Yeah, we can agree there, but camera angles and music cues have nothing to do with that so I have no idea why you would bring that up.

Because them using the same camera angles and music cues is a good example of the way the American version always ends up in the same stupid situations and every single episode feels the exact same.

>Ramsay shows up to restaurant
>eats food
>its shit (music cue, "its hideous"
>shows up and watches kitchen
>"there's zero fuckin commuication
>Gordon goes to check out fridge
>OMG theres old shit in here (music cue)
>Shut the restraunt down this is a health hazard
>Owner is stubborn to Ramsay
>eventually has emotional breakdown and cries on Ramsays lap
>Ramsay has his minons give the restraunt a makeover overnight
>everything is fine the next day because of Ramsays advice
Its fuckin laughable. Every. Single. Episode.

Why is he accusing someone of acting up for the camera though? That's his entire show.

/fast/ is meant to teach you self-control when it comes to eating, i.e. knowing what it feels like to be ACTUALLY hungry and not just eat out of boredom or stress.

Self-discipline is the single best skill a person can have and it's very hard to develop, but once you do you can pretty much do whatever you set your mind to do.

Try Snekman's 72-hour water fasts with 500 cal refeeds every 3 days if you feel like you need more structure.

>Because them using the same camera angles and music cues is a good example of the way the American version always ends up in the same stupid situations and every single episode feels the exact same.
That has nothing to do with whether something is staged or scripted. Staged/scripted means they actually have a script or people on camera are faking situations. And much of the camera placement is literally security camera style in positions overlooking the kitchen besides the one or two handhelds they have around the property. Music cues are added in editing and have nothing to do with how something was filmed.
>always ends up in the same stupid situations and every single episode feels the exact same.
He IS doing the same thing every episode. Locations and people change but not the core concept. I get what you're saying to a degree but you bring up completely unrelated shit to try and drive the point home.

Have you ever watched the European episode of KN and seen just how varied every episode is? Every restaurant he visits has its own unique problems and you learn a new side of the restaurant business every time. I refuse to believe that after visiting 3x the number of restaurants in the US Ramsay has had the same scenario every single fucking time. And the way I see it ending up in the same situation every episode with the cameras getting the same reaction shots and the editing team using the same music cues is absolutely a tip off that the show is staged.

>Have you ever watched the European episode of KN
Yeah, they're fucking great. You still don't understand what staged or scripted means so I think there's not much point in continuing this.

oh fuck you lmao

Why has Gordon never done a "fine-dining" Chinese restaurant on KN?

HES NOT A SUBHUMAN WHO EATS DOGS

>believing contrived TV
Are you all fucking stupid?

Brilliant m8

Good question. I've wondered the same. I believe it's for two reasons:
>that cuisine is outside of his wheelhouse
>he has contempt for it
The latter is an idea I got from the documentary Boiling Point. After hours, he and the boys would go out for cheap Chinese since it's all that was open. He talks about it in a flippant way, which suggested to me that he doesn't take it seriously as a culinary form and considers it something of a last resort when you're hungry and everything else is unavailable. It hurts him when he sees bad European, American, or Indian food. When he sees bad Chinese, it's like who cares? That's how it is, naturally.

I mean yes, we are hard workers, but Mexicans are also hard workin', I don't know about spics in restaurants but construction-wise, they don't slack around
btw Polish kitchens, ironically enough, are a fucking gong show and a brothel on fire, shit's fun but I wouldn't call that grunt work. It's more like live-action mass suicide that fails constantly.
>t. Polish cook

But he just opened an asian restaurant in London last month.

He's slowly morphing into a 20th century American construction worker.
