Chef Gordon Ramsay pays a visit to the Handlebar Restaurant and Lounge in Mt. Sinai, NY, with hopes of fulfilling a couple’s dream to serve good food to good company. In what seems to be a flashback from the 1980s, owners Bill and Carolyn LeRoy are in denial of the restaurant’s outdated dcor and head chef’s lack of passion. Will Gordon get through to hot-headed Bill and be able to turn this restaurant around? Find out on KITCHEN NIGHTMARES airing Thursday, Sept. 11 (9:00-10:00 PM ET/PT) on FOX.

From Fox:
Head Chef Gordon Ramsay revisits the kitchens of six restaurants that were once on the verge of disaster. A year ago, these failing businesses were about to close their doors due to rough financial times and uncertainty about the future. They required the expertise of Ramsay, who stepped in to make some immediate changes. With a dramatic facelift that altered the menu, dcor and mission of each establishment, owners and staff members were finally able to taste success. But have these newly-positive reputations proven to be permanent? Can these restaurants pull themselves out of their former nightmares and into money-making dreams? Or is it time to turn off the grill and hang up the aprons? Find out on the special 2-hour “Revisited: Gordon Returns” episode of KITCHEN NIGHTMARES airing Thursday, Sept. 4 (8:00-10:00 ET/PT) on FOX.

Ramsay’s Kitchen Nightmares is a big hit Down Under, but Sen. Cory Benardi took offense to his bad language. The inquiry viewed an episode where Ramsay used a particular swear word 80 times in one episode. I’m thinking that word was the f-word. He seems to love that word.
Ramsay is the star of the U.S. produced Hell’s Kitchen and Kitchen Nightmares, both on FOX. He is also the star of similar reality shows produced in the U.K.
