Do you think kitchen Nightmare failures are all on the owners?
A website documents everything done by Kitchen Nightmares and the exact aftermath including reviews, and other insights from customers who often visit the place after and owners also post regarding shutdown. I can say without a shadow of a doubt, that 90 percent of owners are at fault for what happens after Kitchen Nightmares either due to former issues like money, or current issues like reverting back to whatever they had previously.
Yes.
Yes.
I love this. TY. What's the name of the site?@@Mitchelled
@@30RULE Not previous commenter but I think they're talking of Kitchen Nightmares Updates? It meets the definition provided.
To be fair, many of these resturants had so much debt it would have required a divine intervention to dig them out of the hole they in.
Yes, that's very true too.
True, that doesn't mean he doesn't still claim he can change them. If someone promises they can save a sinking ship, doesn't mean they get a pass for claiming they can do something that really isn't humanly possible.
@@lunova6165 Now that's a very good point, but you're not going to convince a Ramsay fan of that lol they are rabid
This seems fake, and very broad, and doesn't mention anything specific and seems like a way for someone to get attention.
What was broad? What did you want specifically mentioned?
The place this happen too? The year? Why wasn't this talked about previously? Why did other places Gordon has visited and redone succeed? Most places that do fail from Kitchen Nightmares is because they revert to what they use to do or had more financial issues then they could handle? @@30RULE
People literally document the restaurant after it's been visited by Gordon and did for years. The owners either mention why it never worked, or customers figure it out from going there and seeing that "oh they went back" yet you somehow fail to mention which place this happen too, why it happen and what went wrong on the Kitchen Nightmare side etc.@@30RULE
Tell us what place it was.@@30RULE
what place was it@@30RULE
So the other owner decided he wanted to try ideas from the show. Meaning gordon never came to the restaurant or did anything with the show there and you decide its gordons fault? I believe its the other owners fault🤷🏼♀️
Yes, you're correct :) This has always been an interesting story to me, and I thought I'd share it. I just didn't think the title would generate interest if it said my business partner ruined our restuarant.
@@30RULE: So you basically lie / post CLICKBAIT, and then you're supposed to be credible? Give me a break.
I've seen a LOT of Gordon's shows, and he's not perfect, but he DOES have INTEGRITY, from every single thing I've seen him in.
@rogergeyer9851 If you think making a video interesting by including an honest relatable storytelling element is click bait then 95% of youtube vids are clickbait. Also, why are you bringing up Ramsay's INTEGRITY?
@@30RULE Because the title calls his integrity into question - you're content (what little bit I could stand listening to) is critical. No like or subscribe.
@@ColleenLytle-sq8txabsolutely nothing in the title questions his integrity. Appreciate your honesty in that you didn’t watch the video in its entirety yet judged it anyway.
Trying to gain clout hating on a celebrity chef, huh? Good luck with that one, chief.
I said he's a titan of the culinary world, that his shows are extremely entertaining, his ideas are good and food is amazing. AND that the problems starts when he leaves the restaurant. Are you sure you understand what the word hate means?
Then don't try to throw the blame on Gordon. That's all this looks like lmao. you worded the entire video terribly. @@30RULE
you literally blamed kitchen nightmares for why the guy who had a successful business because of you then going to kitchen nightmares, coming back, crying basically because it went to shit after kitchen nightmares.. no that's not what happen.. he got absolutely blasted by gordon for what he was doing, then he changed, then changed everything back and got fucked because of it. @@30RULE
I point out that Kitchen Nightmares is a TV show not a restaurant turnaround business. It fronts as one but is created for the sole purpose of entertainment. I point out the reasons thats true. @@Mitchelled
Bro trying to make money by trashing world most successful chef. What a shame.😮
"he's a titan of the culinary world" - "I watch all of his shows" - "They're extremely entertaining" - "his ideas are great" - "he modernizes menus"
I trashed him good. Can't wait for the money to roll in 😉
How was he trashing him? All he did was point out how Kitchen Nightmares is a reality tv-show that aims to entertain, but does not actually go beyond a set plot playing out during the show, which is very different from actually saving restaurants.
Exactly🙏🙏🙏@@funkstiu
Sounds like Lil bro saw the title and didn't watch the video and assumed
@dynomite463 my man 🤜🤛
Don't put that on him. He just showing you what to do. If you can't keep it up. You shouldn't be a restaurant owner
I'm not putting anything on him and I agree a lot of these people shouldn't be owners in the first place.
title is a sham, said they walked away from their share in a failing restaurant. not even enough of a share to not refer to their so-called partner as an owner. guess he forgot all the kitchen nightmare advice of growing a pair and standing up for what's right.
Are you someone who lives by Kitchen Nightmare advice?
@@30RULE negative, though I learned similar lessons in life by the time kitchen nightmares aired.
edit to note, that's the whole draw of the show. a lot of it is just pointing out what's obvious from an outside perspective. something we all can do when we set our ego aside for a bit.
Cheers to that 🍻@@bmxerkrantz
People are first to criticize, kinda a shame. no ones going to talk about your experience first but let's talk about your premise, your premise is that Gordon Ramsey's kitchen nightmare is detrimental for these businesses. Which I believe cant be argued and here's why:
Gordon's Kitchen Nightmare was originally meant to showcase those in the "30% rule." or in other words already failing businesses. These businesses are disgusting, facilities are oftentimes comparable to your local hood's McDonalds. Their food is either tasteless to disgusting. All to say: there are reasons why they are failing.
Now that we take that into consideration, It is not Gordon's fault these restaurants are failing. Agreed? Good. Now we should also consider that the show is intended to save these restaurants. Using Analogical Philosophy, would someone who saved 5 out of 28 people in a sinking ship be a hero or a bad person. You wouldn't argue: "Why couldn't he save more?"
You have used the numbers like 5/28(British) and 13/77(American). (Starting at 3:52) You research however doesn't tell us if the owners themselves decided to sell. Which is highly probable since going off the fame of Kitchen Nightmare could increase the value of the restaurant. I argue could because I have not and will not do the digging myself. How about the condition of the restaurants who are open? Are they at Ramsey's standards or just like before? There are too many factors that aren't expressed in this video. This only shows us your video isn't informative enough. I will not say it isn't.
You also applied the 30-70 to the 30 for some reason? Again going to point two about saving a sinking ship. If it was a constant unending loop of 30-70. then the restaurants failing would infinitely approach zero percent. Like I don't get the point of reapplying it there. You have to tell us how you got to where you are mentally.
All this to say, you thought you struck gold, but you struck a landmine. I suggest you take down this video before it causes more damage towards your image if you value the face/reputation you put online.
What you need to improve on:
- Deeper research
- step by step of your thought process.
- A third party researcher and script writer.
there are more I can type about, but you don't want to see a 7 page essay on your video and ways to improve do you. I will be adding edits where necessary. And PS when a good point is made.
I really appreciate the deep dive here! Very informative and I took note. And yes, on technical stand point it could have been more informative and I'd love to hire a script writer and data puller but it's just me. I gave it my all and hopefully further down the road I will have those people at my disposal. Thanks again, for all that you put in here.
7 page essay!

Your comment was very well written and appreciated 👏👏👏
How to say you’re a failure by not say you’re a failure.
An insult from 2021. That cuts deep.
Don't trust this guy. Gordon Ramsay will help your restaurant in more ways than 1, if you stick to his plans and work hard. If you fail, then it's completely your own fault. This is video is full of delusion, and it's an excuse for not owning up to your own responsibilities.
If your not a business owner then you won't understand. You can't teach someone a different way of doing business in a few days of training. You need systems with instructions that people can follow. If you've ever trained someone then you know exactly what I'm talking about.
I am a business owner and I have seen people from Gordon's show succeed using what he taught them like Le bistro and other restaurants that after 10 years are still going today. Yes, you can and you just have to listen to him and take him seriously and if you continue his practices afterward, you'll do very very well. @@30RULE
You're talking out of pure biasm here m8. You don't NEED to be anything to understand how a type of business works. How do you think folks get to a certain position or job title they desire and remain successful? Training and education. Knowledge is the key to everything, and it seems you misunderstood exactly how Gordons operations even work. Obviously not every Owner that appeared on the show ran successful. That is 100% their own fault, because they're either too far in debt to catch up, or were too ignorant to accept the much needed changes. I do know however, that not every owner in the show, were trained or knowledged to work in their position. Those that were successful after the aired episodes, were not all as trained as Gordon was or most other business owners at that. Which brings us to what you said in your reply. You absolutely CAN teach someone new tricks and business practices in a few days. Hell if the individual was clear headed, intelligent and well disciplined. They can pick up and learn just about anything, so long as they put in the work and effort. I'm sorry man, you might be talking out of personal experience and I get that. However, what you said about that "teaching" thing, it's just not true.@@30RULE
I love the deep dive here, and you bring up some good points. Your not wrong, but no, you can't teach THESE methods in a few days. Yes, there will be outliers who can take a teachings and run, but as a turnaround business model people need structure, direction, and consistency.
Again, these failures are not Ramsays fault, and you can argue all day that the owners didn't do enough, but simply put, the KN turnaround business model is created for ratings not longevity. @@wingsailor
If you want to believe so badly that it's impossible, then that's 100% your right to do so. I understand where you're coming from, but I won't sit here and try to change your mind on that. Just remember, like I said before. Anything is possible with some hard work and effort. You can achieve A LOT in such little time if you believe it.@@30RULE
Click bait title. An owner decided he could pull his own turnaround by watching a TV show that has huge crew of outside people to support. He failed and somehow it's Gordons fault.
he tried to do his own ramsey experiment? ok
Boy this backfired on you big time. You should hope none of your business contacts see this. One of the worst ratios I’ve ever seen on UA-cam
I sent this out to all my business contacts. They've all heard this story many times. We all enjoy reading the comments. I also put this in my newsletter with my favorite angry comments. I've been able to make a lot of content reading the negative reviews and sharing my perspective with a lot of positive feedback.
@@30RULE LOL, you are a fraud and a con artist.
You sound like you’re desperate too insult me, but you don’t have anything viable or intelligent. It seems like you’re just coming up with insulting words. Not a good look.
First, you told me this video back fired on me and my business contacts shouldn’t see this, but I’ve gotten the most subscribes from this video, and I’ve invite all business contacts to see all my videos since I absolutely stand by what I say.
Then, you say I’m a con artist and fraud which is clearly you trying to insult me since you’re bothered by the fact that your first attack comment “backfired” on you… but I could be wrong…
Please explain how I’m a fraud and a con artist as you claimed…
Some advice, make sure everything you say has merit and is accurate. It will look better on you.
Don’t worry, you got this.
I am some dude from the Internet, listen to me. That BILLIONAIRE Gordon Ramsay is a HACK. YEAH, I will get right on that. LOL
I said he was a hack? timestamp please
A misleading thumbnail and defensive comment replies aren't a good look. That's all I'm going to say.
I'm just asking follow up questions and replying. That's all I'm going to say.
This is not Ramsay's responsibility. Ramsay demonstrated to the owners how to succeed. It was their choice to fail or learn. Either own up to your mistakes or close your damn doors.
I'm not putting it on Ramsay, but you can't teach people new methods with a couple of days of training. That's training employees in any industry is SO expensive.
@@30RULE What training doo you think ivolves with keeping the decor Ramsay installed?
Did you think I insinuated there should be training to keep the decor Ramsay installed?
The 'success' rate quoted here is more complex than the simple evaluation you are giving here. I am a project manager, and know that coaches and facilitators can only do so much, there are so many variables, it is up to the individuals applying the training, to find success for themselves. Some people are leaders, some are followers.
I completely agree on all fronts. That's why systems are necessary. You can't train someone in your ways over 2 days and expect it to (a) stick and (b) stay consistent over time. Consistency is one of the hardest things to instill. And don't get me wrong, systems don't guarantee a win because, to your point, it's up to the ownership to use the systems properly. But I can say that training an entire staff for 2 days without management even going through the training themselves, with no systems in place, is almost a guarantee for failure, or at the very least, they'll revert to their old ways because they can't properly grasp the new methods.
This guy claims that Gordon is responsible for these restaurants forever. He gives them everything they need to be successful. It's up to them to keep it up.
That's not what I implied at all. I do restaurant turn around for a living. The show is made for entertainment and doesn't set them up for success. It's a great opportunity for the restaurants, but like I said, it's temporary.
Those restaurants that close are too in debt by the time Gordon comes in or they do not stick to the new changes 🤣
Maybe the show picks those places deliberately. The worse the restaurant is doing the more spectacular the show can be. Let's not forget the goal of the show is NOT to save restaurants (that's a means to an end), the real goal is the show itself. That's fine with me btw. I like drama on tv as much as the next viewer. I love Kitchen Nightmares. I also think it's much more scripted/manipulated than many think.
Which restaurant was this?
Most of these restaurants aren’t even his fault, for example, sebastian’s, amy’s baking company, chappy, these restaurants failed because of the owner itself, they were too stubborn, egoistic, to accept gordon’s criticism , they most likely called ramsay to think that he would agree with them on everything
I agree with you. I'm def not saying it's Ramsays fault.
Dude, most of those restaurants were so far gone they were beyond saving. A lot of those places went back to their old systems instantly. Where do you park your Ferrari? Oh you don’t have one. Michelin Stars?
For what I'm saying to be true I have a Ferrari?? 😂
Sounds like you think ramsey should stay running the restaurants forever?
Not at all. Just emphasizing the importance of systems to ensure consistency and accountability.
Hahahahaha 😂 the only route to elevate your so called business skills and expertise is through trashing Ramsay? What a shame! Grow up and face the facts you won't reach Ramsay status anytime soon.
So you think I have chance of reaching his status?
when does the restaurant owners and managers take responsibility? seems like your looking to put the blame on Gordon instead of taking your own responsibility.
That's exactly what I said in the video. It was the majority owners mistake.
BS
Truth
This is somewhat slanted, as it doesn't account for a ton of things in the statistics, and the conclusions drawn are simply faulty. It isn't wrong that the failure rate of restaurants on that show is very high, however. Ramsey isn't selling a golden ticket to a successful business. He sells advertisement, a potential path forward, and basic training. That's his job, and he tends to complete it. In return, he gets to profit off the restaurant's over-dramatized stories.
He's no saint, nor a miracle worker, but the fault always lies with the owners of the restaurant. That's why they're the owners--they have responsibility for it. If your ex-partner decided to take the advice of a tv show over a real life partner, that's on them, not the tv show.
I agree 💯 on almost everything you said here but… advertising isn’t enough. If that were the case every restaurant would have a full time Facebook ads person. Ads and marketing gets people in the door, but if you don’t have SYSTEMS to ensure I high customer retention rates, then you will fail. It’s simply a sugar rush.
They failed because just like your boss, they pushed the blame on someone else. Either take responsibility for your restaurant or stop whining and close your doors.
Yes, they failed for many reasons.
I love the kitchen nightmares shows as entertainment these owners were simply terrible and to me had no common sense on operating a restaurant thus why they were in disarray
I loved the show too.
Survive rate would be 0 if Ramsey have'nt helped.
You might not be wrong
Gordon's doing a new series UA-cam Nightmares, this is gonna be the first ep.
🤣🤣😅
That's very interesting. So if the restaurants he saved hired a full time consultant to oversee the changes, maybe more could have survived?
Hypothetically transitional not full time. Someone who can take all the teachings that just received put them into easy to understand/ learn systems and training manuals. Then teach management/ staff how to use and implement.
THEN the owners/ staff truly have ALL the tools to survive. It’s completely up to them at that point.
This situation is obviously an anomaly. Normally one team would see this entire process out RESUCE + SYSTEMS DEVELOPMENT
If you want to look for someone to blame for your business failures, look in the mirror: it's not Ramsay's, or anyone else's (other than yours) responsibility to make sure that you have the knowledge that you need to run a business, before you start it, and that you stay on top of it---Ramsay can help these guys, he can guide them, but he can't do it for them. Again, the mirror.
I didn't blame Ramsey. I'm confused by your comment.
Why doesn't he have a chain of restaurants if he knows more then Ramsey.
Please explain how I insinuated I know more than Ramsay. Kitchen Nightmares is made for entertainment. Not setting up the restaurant for maximum success. It does it's job and it does it well.
its literally given people successful businesses.. what happen after was the fault of the owners. @@30RULE
@@30RULE This video is just an entire hitpiece on gordon ramsay.
I said he's a titan of the culinary world and that I've watched all his shows.
1:52 Not surprising, you just said it didn’t work because it didn’t mesh with YOU, and that you the head chef left. I’m not surprised at all that they couldn’t find or hold onto a new chef those 2 months for a restaurant in trouble. At that point it’s like asking people to jump into a sinking ship. Talk about an uphill battle.
I wasn't the head chef. I was there to help turn around the restaurant.
You don't say what the restaurant is I'm sure for a reason. EVERY restaurant he went to says they have good food and they are run properly just like you have. Also, The National Restaurant Association estimates a 20% success rate for all restaurants. About 60% of restaurants fail in their first year of operation, and 80% fail within 5 years of opening. He does add systems. The problem is the owners don't follow through and go back to their own ways. Also, most of these restaurants are in dire straights financially so their success rate is going to be even lower. Most owners don't change. Some even go back to the way things were. Then when they fail they say Ramsey did it. No restaurants; your food isn't good; and there is no such thing as fresh frozen. Give me fresh, good food and I'll be back.
Please explain... how does add systems?
How about restaurant impossible?
I'm actually going to check that out!
He helped them out, not his fault what happens after
I agree with that.
That is BS. ALL THOSE restaurants were gonna close. Ive went and looked at them and he was very central to them still being open today
You went and looked at all of them?? That’s impressive. You must have gotten some insane frequent flyer Miles.
_"Systems"_
47 times?
I've helped 52 restaurants go from in the red to in the green using "systems" so I do say that word a lot but wow, didn't think I said it 47 times 🫠
Bar recuse another one...
EXACTLY, but damn it they're so entertaining!
The after should be up to the owners! Ramsay sets them on the right track, remodelling and training, a new menu and kitchen in some instances. Even leaving them with a chef to kick start things. He cant be there forever for every restaurant to make sure they succeed. Him and countless others didnt have that when they decided to open restaurants. People who have no business doing so should not get in to the restaurant business
He doesn’t need to be there any longer. I’m saying he should provide them with systems for the processes he implemented. If you own a successful business or manage one… you know how important systems are.
@@30RULEwhich is why the owners and managers should implement those systems and keep their workers on track. It’s not on Ramsay that the owners and GMs can’t keep up and they then deserve to fail.
Ramsay created the protocols thus he needs to create the systems otherwise there will be a huge disconnect. @@JEREMY_IN_MN
@@JEREMY_IN_MN You make good points. Your absolutely right and it's def not Ramsays FAULT. But to ask owners to put in systems on procedures they didn't create or are far beyond their skillset is a tall order and again, setting someone up far very difficult time.
@@30RULE how many were beyond skill set vs just lazy and stubborn owners? Most were set up with very easy dishes to make after having LARGE menus to work with that they weren’t skilled enough to keep up with. If anything, he more often than not streamlined the way they should work and made it so the team that they had could handle it. I would also say of these places, some seemed to just want a free makeover for their restaurant so they could sell it and try to get out of some of their debt.
Did you want him to buy the freaking places?how bout them getting off their asses and just do it?
“Getting off tour ass and just doing it” is how you execute a task not a business plan. Unfortunately, it’s much more complex than that.
Well if I dont do it nobody else is.@@30RULE
Well if I dont do it nobody else is.@@30RULE
My point is kitchen nightmares owed them nothing to begin with so nothing negetive can be placed on kitchen nightmares only the positive help given to the owners. @@30RULE
I agree, and I'm not placing anything negative on KN. I said in the video he does a great job revamping the place and his ideas are gold for them, but you need to have systems and procedures in place for the success to continue. He's providing them with a lot of high concept ideas which is great, but they need AT LEAST a guide that anyone could open, read, understand, and execute. In the real world at least.
A lot of people have been saying "the owners got the information. now it's on them", and sure, you can look at it that way, but the reality is most people can't just take a couple of days of training and RUN. If that were the case then running successful businesses would be easy and a lot more people would do it. People need systems to fall back on. More importantly you should set people up for success by providing systems they can fall back on.
It's not Ramsays or KN fault these restaurants failed. I'm just pointing out, at the end of the day, he's only giving them the first half of the piece of the solution puzzle.
You specifically said “his formula wasn’t going to mesh with mine.” That statement in itself speaks louder than what you’re yapping for the rest of the video. Stop projecting, and take responsibility that you have failed as an owner for refusing to change your work ethics.
Where do my work ethics come it play?
It is not Gordons job to train people who are hired after 🤡
Correct. That's not what I said 🤡
I agree with most of what this guy says But looking at the shows numbers I don't think they're as bad as they're made out to be. This show started filming in 2007. As someone who also used to turn around small bulike restaurants I can honestly say that It's hard to find a restaurant even a successful one that remains open under the same ownership after 16 years. Many of these restaurants qualified for the show because they were failing due to bad management mostly mostly as well as owners they didn't know what the hell they were doing. Some basic and very easy to fix issues are things like not keeping a proper inventory list and overbuying of product. The incidences where the owners can stand in front of a packed refrigerator unit full of rancid and rotting food while still Wondering what they're doing wrong Can be solved by implementing a system For ordering. And as for cleani have noticed it he doesn't really spend a lot of time explaining to these people how to properly clean and create create a detailed system for keeping the kitchen and restaurant clean. To me it seems like those shows where they shovel outhe houses of horders only to return a year Lato a similar mess That required clean up assistance in the first place. Baby things are different here in Miami but I've never been in a kitchen that looked like any of these filthy kitchens that appear on the show. I can't believe that some of these restaurants have gone years and maybe decades without ever being visited by a health inspector. At least in Florida all food workers need to pass the Serve Safe certifications. Every food worker from the dishwasher to the manager Mike must and I an official Serve safe certification.
Good points here, and you're not wrong. My point simply is that (and I'm sure with your background we're on the same page) you can't go into a restaurant that's poorly ran, give them instructions once over, and expect results in longevity. Also, great point on HOW BAD these restaurants were. Till this day I have yet to work with a restaurant that's even close to that level of horrificness. Usually restaurants that bad refuse to pay for help.
Give man a fish and you keep him fed for a day, teach man to fish you get him fed until Gordon leaves, INTRODUCE SYSTEMS AND YOU WILL KEEP MAN FED FOR LIFE. TL;DR man's talking out of his ass and youtube pushing it because angry british chef was named.
Why am I talking out of my ass? Are you saying successful restaurants don't need systems? Are you saying EVERY successful restaurant isn't laced with system on systems?
Nah
yeah no. everyone loves gordon ramsey. you gonna get flames for this and i’m all for it lol

one last thing, clearly you aren't great at marketing considering you're going to get heavy backlash for hating on one of the worlds most renowned chefs, and his show.. lmao also don't say you didn't hate when you literally said kitchen nightmares is why the guy returned to you.. no he didn't, and that's why hes no longer your client.. you won't even provide the name. you're using this as clout for a business that's going to fail because only patrick star would fall for this.
I said "the kitchen nightmare experiment failed". I showered Ramsay with praise in the video. Spoiler alert: Kitchen Nightmare is a TV show made for one purpose, to get ratings through entertainment.
kitchen nightmares was a show and yes that was part of it but no one would sign up for a show that purely focuses on that. clearly they're a lot of things that go into it, we dont see. no one would put a business on a TV show without setting clear guidelines.@@30RULE
No, I will not invest in a system that is based on pointing the finger at other failures.. A very poor and vindictive advertising campaign , tells a lot about a so called business opportunity..
You got a view, that's it !.
I’m pointing fingers at flaws. If you own a successful restaurant… you know exactly what I’m talking about.
Wow! He expects Gordon there for a few months to continue trading the staff. How about the Cooks continue to learn? The owners actually Implement more training? If actually? If actually do real follow-up, the Owners decide to go back to their old ways. That is why failed. Stop watching after you started blaming him from almost the start. Seem pretty arrogant
lol "I stopped watching from the start" "and here's my criticism of the video" I believe by definition, that's arrogant.

not sure why there are so many negative comments. the math on the closure rate is a little funky (where did that number 15 come from? are covid shutdowns being taken into consideration?), but overall it's true that a tv show that makes aesthetic changes and then leaves the business to it is the bandaid over a gunshot wound. when walk-ins are overflowing with poorly ordered or low quality ingredients, we don't see gordon instituting an ordering schedule with baldor, for example. there's no financial counseling, when finances are the biggest part of the battle in keeping any small business open. and yeah-where are the SOPs? the problem, of course, is that SOPs, ordering schedules, and budgeting are not exciting on TV.
You 're spot on, and you're well versed in the business side of restaurants (and business in general). The weird negative comments is because YT (rightfully) pushed this out to Ramsay fans who were automatically offended by the title. Worse, most of them didn't watch the full video, that's why their comments don't connect. A lot of them refer to me as a chef 😂
Thanks for your great insight. I nerd with these things so you speak my language!
Just take this video down, you still have time to save your channel.
Oh c'mon now.
no hes right.. you should probably take it down.. you'll ruin the algorithm for your channel @@30RULE
Let me blame a show we were never on and a man I never met.
So you complain about him but he never came there.....And he never claimed to save a percentage. Sounds like you and your partner had no idea what you were doing. So how did he personally mess up your restaurant? Oh yea you and your partner messed it up and blamed a dude who never even came to the restaurant?
You are delusional
How did I blame Ramsay? Please explain.
So the restaurant had nothing to do with Ramsay or Kitchen Nighmares at all. This video is just
clickbait.
How is it click bait?
Get a grip brother. He's real and a great psychologist for people. You're deluded
He’s a great psychologist?
Lol, you ain't winning this one, terrible video. Goodluck. 🤣 coming from a former cook/chef from 15 years.
If you were a cook/chef for 15 years and this video doesn't make sense to you then you never handled the business or training side of things.
@30RULE the fact you need to call out everyone because you don't agree with them means you weren't a real chef. See, I can make arguments without making sense too big boy.
You proved that with your first "argument"@@chefbrett2269
@30RULE cool, have fun winning this battle again bud. You're gonna lose.
What battle am I trying to win?@@chefbrett2269
Why are you blaming Gordon? This dude is delusional.
How did I blame Gordon?
...what? LOL
He's entertaining with some interesting slang words and expressions I wouldn't have thought of, but other than that I'm not all that impressed. All I need for from him is his face turning purple while he calls someone a donkey.
I do enjoy that too 😂
Wow! This video is really well made. Great analysis 👍
Appreciate the kind words! 🤜🤛
click bait
very interesting indeed...very nice video :)
Thanks for the kind words 🤜🤛 Appreciate that
Useless rant packed with stock images, and naked numbers. Painted facts. Not even single fact is backed by a legal evidence, official statistics, nothing... hype-hunting rant.
This is an impressive word salad. Words in no particular order either which I have to respect.
Shut up lol
This is just ridiculous ranting.
clickbait and gay
How is it clickbait?
Pathetic...
Informative...
@@30RULE if you want some feedback I really suggest you change your editing style. It's genuinely painful to watch.
That's not informative. It's just a criticism. That doesn't help me.@@incidentlyaniguana2193
@@30RULE Criticism can be informative. Specifically though, the constant cuts to barely relevant stock clips and over use of animated text are just headache inducing distractions.
You have a good quality setup but the bland corporate style you have gone with makes your video and thereby message unpalatable, even though you are right. Its just feels like lowhanging fruit. I clicked off the video in the first minute and a half when I first watched it, even though I agree with the points you make.
The modernist influencer style you are emulating is obnoxious and I would really suggest switching up your approach. I'm not sure how much of a market you have with the whole restaurant entrepreneurial guru thing you have going on, but I really suggest reevaluating the approach you take to your image if you want to connect with people. Especially because those of us in the industry who may be interested in the content are generally down to earth people who would be nauseous after seeing 2 minutes of this video.
That's good feedback and I appreciate it. Not going for a guru approach just providing knowledge I've acquired over 20 years of being in the industry. I'm sorry to hear this had such a physical impact on you as that was not my intention. Again, appreciate your insight on this.@@incidentlyaniguana2193
Its so hard to even slightly criticize Ramsay (look at the comments), or his shows. His audience are probably some of the most obnoxious people on the internet. If you even mention his history of being racist, fatphobic, misogynistic, homophobic, transphobic, lawsuits filed against him because he has physically attacked people on the job, etc. You get a bunch of people saying you're chasing clout and are jealous. You didn't even mention any of this stuff, though, and complimented him, and people still have a problem with it lol.
Besides all of that it does not matter if Gordon did a good job, or not because once you show some disgusting restaurant on live TV for the world to see people simply won't want to come back even after its changed. For example, if you got sick at a restaurant would you go back even after they said it was changed, and fixed? Probably not. Now imagine rats, bugs, etc. Other restaurants have the luxury of it not being shown to the world before they fix their issues.
Also if you look at Yelp reviews and other reviews for these restaurants when the shows air, they get tons of fake reviews from Karens who never went to the restaurants saying its bad usually saying things they saw on the show.
I would also like to mention that the workers who are generally not the problem who are getting underpaid, overworked, and on top of that have to be in the TV show for free do not get paid. The restaurant owners get free publicity, a huge makeover, free equipment, pro chefs to train their cooks, etc. Meanwhile, the worker who got treated like garbage by the owner usually has to watch them get all this free stuff where the money ill not trickle down back to them.
Both Gordon Ramsay and the producers are rich. Why can they not pay the workers for the free acting they do on the show? There is no legitimate reason, not one. Pay the damn waitresses, waiters, bus boys, chefs, etc. who provide us with free entertainment as well. This is a huge problem for reality TV in general.
Overall it is not necessarily Gordon, or the Ownerse fault entirely when restaurants don't come back. Society has a very, "Never again," treatment when it comes to their food. It still doesn't change that Gordon is trying to fix things and make promises he know just won't happen. He's not stupid. Its entertainment at tis heart.
