"Ramsay's Kitchen Nightmares"

by Danielle

If the team from Extreme Makeover: Home Edition started remodeling restaurants and it was hosted by the British lovechild of Supernanny and Dr. Phil who so happened to swear like a sailor, you´d have the new Fox reality show, Kitchen Nightmares. Gordon Ramsay, the British chef whose blunt colorful loud ways of speaking his mind were first introduced to America on `Hell´s Kitchen,´
hosts this new series. Each episode features a restaurant down on their luck hoping that Ramsay can fix what needs to be done to get them back on top. The first thing after meeting the `family´ of restaurant owners and staff that Ramsay does is partake of a meal served by the wait staff so he can experience what it´s like to be a patron. The only difference being that Ramsay is more like an obnoxious food critic than your average patron. A tour of the kitchen shows facilities in bad need of replacing and reorganization of priorities. Bestowing a brand new kitchen and advice on how to set themselves apart from the other similar restaurants in the area creates moral and a renewed sense of prosperity. The show features plenty of heated exchanges and drama that is common fare these days on reality shows but also ties things up at the end when
everything seems to magically work out.
