J Willy’s Bar & Grille Challenges Chef Ramsay on Kitchen Nightmares

From Fox:

The owners of J Willy’s Bar & Grille in South Bend, IN, are in $1.2 million in debt and have called in Chef Gordon Ramsay in hopes that he can help give them a fresh start. With no one running the kitchen, most of the fare is straight from the freezer or out of a can. To start fresh, Gordon challenges the staff to spend the night cleaning out the kitchen and throwing away all the rotten food lurking in the coolers. The next morning, Gordon brings in fresh ingredients and teaches the cooks how to make various dishes that will be featured at that night’s dinner service. However, when the inexperienced cooks get flustered, the kitchen spirals out of control and brings one customer to tears. Find out if Gordon will be able to bring the restaurant up to his standards or if J Willy’s will be forced to close their doors forever on KITCHEN NIGHTMARES airing Thursday, Oct. 30 (9:00-10:00 PM ET/PT) on FOX.

Gordon Ramsay Is Launching a Production Company So F*** Off

Five star chef and reality television star Gordon Ramsay is launching his own television production company, called One Potato Two Potato.

Having a production company means that not only will he be able to produce new shows, but he will have control of the rights to his shows, Hell’s Kitchen and Kitchen Nightmares. Word is that his first project is a cooking show set to air in the U.K.

Australian Lawmakers Can’t Put a Lid on Ramsay’s Potty Mouth

It looks like Australia has to deal with chef Gordon Ramsay’s foul-mouthed tirades, whether they want to or not.

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.
