how does he keep getting away with it?
>>
>>70689965

to be fair most of the restaurants go back to being complete shite because they were a mess to begin with

I mean, just the debt alone has most of the places Ramsay has visited at the precipice of destruction before he touches anything. I don't see how giving them a free remodeling/rebranding/menu fix could have hurt them. When he does the return to places they are almost always not following his plan or ended up doing some more stupid shite.
>>
>>70689965
30% seems like a pretty decent success rate, honestly. Poorly run businesses competing in the most difficult industry? Not bad tbqh senpai
>>
>>70690079
>almost always not following his plan
This, tbqhwy. Every single time that problematic owner who kept wanting to sell burnt smegma cheese sandwiches went right back to doing what they want after the uptick in their service and drives away all the good business Ramsay brought.
>>
He's helping the restaurant for like what, a week? At most they have like 2 nights where things go well, once Gordon goes they don't have him hanging around fixing the mess. It's just far too little time to fix places that have like 500k debt.
>>
>>70689965
>okay guys we need you to pretend you're actually listening and doing what gordon says so the episode ends on a positive note
>after that we don't give a fuck, do what you want

there's a lot of instances where they rely on a commercial break and careful editing to mask a sudden change in attitude someone has. TV isn't real, even if they stick the word reality into the genre

This. 60% of new restaurants fail and, given that the places on Kitchen Nightmares are absolutely abysmal, a 30% success rate isn't too low.

Have you seen some of the people on the show?

I know, I know, they edit to make them look more extreme personality wise and conflict wise.

But for fucks sake. A lot of them go like this:

OWNER: "Oh yeah, We're 800k in debt, I already lost my house, I'm losing 8000 a week, ill have to shut down in a month"

GORDON:"Your menu has 26 pages and it's RAWWWWW!"

RESTAURANT'S CHEF: "fuck you and fuck the customers, imma culinary prodigy"

Gordon: "You should improve the food, clean the restaurant, and have better customer service"

Owner: "I don't want to change anything"

Gordon: .....

Seriously, there is nothing going to save most of these places.
>>
>>70689965
Isn't that better than average? IIRC something like 85% of new restaurants close within five years.
>>
>>70692358
Hell, those were all failing restaurants in crippling debt, so even then, that's still pretty good
>>
>>70692358
I've heard it's more like 90% in the first 2 years.
>>
i hate the dingy kitchens makes me want to never eat out again
>>
To be fair he has a show where he outs restaurant owners as unskilled
Unhygienic pigs, that's some pretty bad publicity even after they see the error of their ways, also that's a pretty good figure to give a failing restaurant a fighting chance
>>
Didn't one of the first few restaurant owners write out against him that it was his fault their failing business failed after their episode because he revealed how shit they were?
It was the UK series too so no excessive theatrics either
These people are out of their minds
>>
The real question is, why does anyone ever open a restaurant
>>
>>70692616
>that's some pretty bad publicity even after they see the error of their ways
this, most people wouldn't go eat at those restaurants after they saw all the disgusting shit going on there.
>>
>>70692940

If I've learned anything from the show, because it's fun, requires no food or business expertise, it's easy money, brings families together, and you can hang out and drink at the bar no problem.

Seriously, a good chunk of them believe this.
>>
>>70692777
Pretty sure that was the first episode, Bonapartes

>Sue became homeless, jobless and was left with with £400,000 debt after avoiding bankruptcy. Sue was later caught drink driving .

Oh, I didn't about the homeless thing, that's unfortunate

>>70692940
Going from what I remember from the show, they really underestimate how hard it is to run a restaurant

>>70692957
You say that, but for the ones that turned around they really turned some heads. I remember in the UK version, one of them had a gravy campaign that went amazingly well and basically saved their business.

In addition to the usual financial hole they are neck deep in when he goes there, they usually have less then zero idea of how to run a restaurant.

Owning and running a restaurant is already going to be hard enough without the completely obvious mistakes they are usually making.

Even beyond the lack of cheesy sound effects and drama stuff on the US version, the UK version is better because usually its more centered on improving the food and cooking in general from a master chef.

You don't need Gordon Ramsay to tell you your dining room is disgusting, or your menu is ridiculously large, or your service is poor. Pretty much any sod off the street could point that out.

So yeah 30 percent still open is way more than it could be.

Is it hard to make an "organic" fast food place akin to McDonald's or burger King?
>>
>>70695052
Fast food is all about speed and low cost, and organic stuff is inherently more expensive and must be prepared differently than mass produced ingredients. The two concepts are nearly incompatible, I think. Chipotle is probably as close as we can get.

>>
>>70695118
It just sounds like you can still make the same In-N-Out style burgers but with organic. As long as it's in places with health conscious people like so Cal then you can charge more and people will buy it
>>
>>70695052
No, and I refuse to believe otherwise. McDonalds has some of the finest chefs this world has ever seen. ANYONE who eats it cannot deny how good it tastes.
>>
>>70695233

There's a shit load of 'healthy organic' food trucks around here, which is pretty much fast food. They don't have the extra costs from having a brick and mortar so the food prices stay equivalent.
>>
>>70695052
Define organic. I worked at a Five Guys for a couple years and everything there was fresh and the meat some kind of grass grazed whatever.
>>
>>70695289
True but then having a niche like In-N-Out helps. Limited ingredients so no worries and everything is fresh. Plus lines go on for miles and people don't care

>these people are out of their minds

Welcome to the restaurant business. I've worked in a restaurant that surpasses anything seen on Kitchen Nightmares. A restaurant so bad that all we could do was joke about all of the rat shit in peoples food (the owner refused to hire exterminators, he considers himself a "culinary genius" and his restaurant "world renowned"). If you want to see dysfunction, denial, and delusion stop in.

What are your favourite changes that Ramsay consistently makes?

I think by far and away the most important thing he does for these retards is cutting down the menu.

You've got to learn to walk before you can run. Smaller menu = less challenge for chefs. Smaller menu = less inventory. Smaller menu = less time gather resources during the day. Smaller menu = less choice for the customers = easier for them to make choices, less time sitting there feeling confused.

He does it almost every time and it always helps instantly.

I just watched that episode and it's kind of depressing. That poor kid didn't want to get roped into a restaurant, but even so he probably could have actually turned it into a successful place.

They're closed now, and it's 100% the parents fault.

Seems high, good on him.
>>
>>70689965
The longer the show goes on, the worse the percentage is going to get anyway simply because even good restaurants will close after so many years.

It's also likely that way less than 30% of them would be open without his help. The people on that show are genuine idiots who, even with perfect help, would fail at running anything.

This. Its how it goes. My family ran a bunch of really busy restaurants but once it gets busy and you get tired of that shit, time to unload it on someone else who may or may not fuck it all up. Or they may just close it down And do something else with the space.

>>70706041
It could have been put towards a brand new home instead of that shitty apartment he was living in.
>>
I compiled a list of my favourites and a greentext summary to go with each episode.

Dillon's
>Indian restaurant, filthy kitchen, one of the owners being used, general manager a donkey

Seascape
>One of the more un-professional chefs in the series. Gordon almost chokes to the owner's mom's cookie.

Sebastian's
>Crazy owner with big dreams, the most complex menu "concept" in the series.

Lela's
>swagpriest thuglord "executive" chef, with a line cook that steals leftover food from the kitchen.

The Secret Garden
>Pompous french head chef. "YOU FRENCH PIG!"

Handlebar
>really sub-par food, owner is at the end of the rope.

Black Pearl
>One of the owners is a real sleazeball, kinda like a politician.

J Willy's
>Totally clueless general manager, the two owners miserable, heartfelt episode imo.

Fiesta Sunrise
>Mashed beans in a 20 gallon barrel. Everything on the menu is made "yesterday".

Casa Roma
>Totally clueless headchef, who takes two hours to complete one table. Powdered sugar sprinkled on top of a sandwich with fries.

Spanish Pavillion
>Head chef / owner totally depressed. A dead lobster in the lobstertank.

Kingston Cafe
>Jamaican restaurant that does jerkchicken and then bags it up in these little medical style baggies. The owner works also as a doctor, so of course everyone in the restaurant has to call her "Dr."

Oceana
>One of my favourites. Gordon totally owns the head chefs ass.

Blackberry's
>Chaotic system in the kitchen, dead mouse by the front door, good shit.
>>
>>70707420
Continued:

Leone's
>Theres like a 300 items on the menu, every single one of them is garbage. The owner / manager spends 3 hours in the restaurant per day.

Burger Kitchen part 1 & 2
>Guess all of you know about this by now. Nonstop drama the both episodes.

El greco
>The owner / manager plays video games all day, comes really late to the restaurant. Everything is made with the microwave in the restaurant.

Spin-A-Yarn
>Trophy wife who acts really bizarre, I can't really put my finger on it. Calls his husband "dude" unironically.

Ms Jean's Southern Cuisine.
>The staff takes their job for granted. Horrible food, and a really odd looking restaurant overall.

Olde Hitching Post
>The most hideous looking smile I ever saw on a waitress. Totally bonkers owner who thinks that the clams smell and taste fresher after being frozen.

Mill Street Bistro part 1 & 2
>Gordon and the baboon owner go head to head almost the whole runtime.
>Elk quesadillas.

Prohibition Grille
>50 year old owner who acts, talks and dresses like a teenager. Leaves Gordon scratching his head on how dumb some people can be.

Amy's Baking Company

Mangia Mangia part 1 & 2
>Drug addict head chef fights all the time with the owner. Horrible, horrible italian food.

>>
The british version is so much better
>>
>>70689965
there is something i learnt from this and it was the difference between US and UK audiences.

the UK version goes into great detail on how gordon bonds with the chefs and goes step by step on how to fix said problems. He seems like a real nice guy who just doesnt tolerate shit and the owners arent batshit insane.

Then you have the US version.
admitidally I enjoy it more when im brain dead watching something or just playing something for noise while i do some shit ass grinding in a game, but its completely fake.

its like eating hot dogs, I know its shit and i know its not real but i still like eating them.

Peter's

The mixing bowl

Finn McCool's

Campania
>Forgot to put this to my first posts. Apparently the head chef/owner committed suicide a few years after the airing.

Giuseppi's
>Your average italian restaurant episode. One of the ones you can skip.

Trobiano's
>Owner who has lost his spark, delusional at first but then comes around.

Hannah & Mason's

Jack's Waterfront
>Three bodybuilders own a seafood restaurant, with one of the owners father doing devil's work unknowingly in the background.

Sante La Brea

Bazzini
>Owner's brother was addicted to drugs for a long time and it has left a scar in the family.

Lido Di manhattan
>Young owner who is way out of her league. Cries, cries, cries.

Le Bistro
>Pompous owner/head chef who thinks he is higher class than the community.

Mama Rita's

Anna Vincenzo's
>Ever seen a crazy overweight italian woman. Well the owner is just like that stereotype.

Fleming
>"Danish" styled restaurant with a cuban or something head chef. One you can skip

Sushi-Ko
>Sushi Pizza
>Owner / head chef has lost his spark, heartfelt episode. Solid finisher for the season.
>>
Trying the remember the episode where it was a restaurant run by black people, they had a great setup with smokers to smoke ribs and BBQ but bizarrely instead of serving fresh smoked stuff would put it in the cold room then reheat it the next day in the microwave or something. All Ramsay had to do was tell them to knock that shit off and serve it fresh, he didn't really change their recipes too much either,

Down City

Tavolini

La Frite
>Brother & Sister owners practically hate eachother by now. More on the family drama side of the series.

Capri
>Forgot all about this episode. One of my favourites. Twinbrother owners who like to sit more in the sun than work in the restaurant, and boy it shows. They are like the tweedledee and tumblefuck from the Alice in wonderland.

Charlie's
>Italian restaurant with a stubborn retard chef who doesn't know how to cook a meatball, even though he is italian.

Chiarella's
>Italian restaurant. Crazy owner who works out in the basement of the restaurant and hits the walls frequently. "The food is not so baaaaad" sure man sure.

Zocalo
>Overworked owner / headchef. Skippable episode.

Pretty much this. Gordon Ramsey will replace your furniture but he's not going to fish out $30,000 to get you out of your personal debt. For all he knows you could be in debt for other reasons besides the restaurant.

...

Bacteria killing is a function of time and temperature. If you keep something at a relatively low temperature (140f), for a long time, you'll kill the bacteria.

The standard FDA temperature guides are based on a short reheat, during which high temperatures are necessary to ensure bacteria killing.

Boiling water is sufficiently hot to kill bacteria in meat.

There are a lot of benefits to low temperature cooling. You can kill the bacteria without denaturing the proteins that give meat flavor. In otherwords, sous vide cooking allows you to have a steak that tastes rare (good) with all the safety of a well done steak.
