Epic facebook meltdown from Gordon Ramsey's Kitchen Nightmares

How do so many of these restaurants think they can pull off such huge menus? A really big menu is harder to price, confuses customers with too many choices, wastes money by having to stock so many ingredients, and dilutes quality and consistency by having dishes the cook seldom prepares.

One of the most common changes Ramsay makes is to trim down the menu, and focus on the restaurant’s specialty.

In her Reddit AMA, she said she was 17 at the time, 18 now.

Because they think they’ll draw more customers if they can be everything to everybody, which is basically impossible, unless they’re an all-you-can-eat-buffet, and don’t even get me started on them.

Deadpan sarcasm often doesn’t work in plain text. Especially when it’s entirely possible that someone might make such a statement. It’s a corollary of Poe's law - Wikipedia

Which god? Kali?

No dog but yeah, I bought it too.

Sorry guys. But I did post earlier in the thread that I felt there was absolutely no way that someone as incompetent at making savory dishes as Amy was could have possibly made those awesome desserts.

Cthulu.

According to the linked page:

That could be fodder for a whole new TV show.

Given that I think under it all Ms. Stewart is a mean assed bitch and she recently got some shive training that probably isn’t a good thing.

I’m sure she’s had chive training. Maybe shiv training when she was in prison.

But shive training? Dunno.

He might’ve meant shrive training, but I don’t remember reading about her going into seminary.

Their restaurant’s decor looks like Alice in Wonderland, perhaps Amy’s crazy is her take on The Mad Hatter.

Okay,

That was funny :slight_smile:

Give me a break guys. Sue me, I ain’t all edumacated on prison lingo/spelling.

And yeah, Martha doesn’t give that calm nunnery/monastery vibe that’s for sure.

I was thinking Minnesota Shrike. Shameless Hannibal reference.

There’s an awesome column about this in yesterday’s Washington Post, complete with venn diagram.

That’s awesome!

I’m surprised that they haven’t taken the obvious next step of suing the show for damages. It would be futile, of course, but seems in line with how clueless they’ve been so far.

I’m torn between cautioning you against giving them ideas, and begging you to contact them to suggest this very thing.

If they sue, I hope it’s on Judge Judy. I tried to watch the episode and I actually couldn’t. They were so over the top horrible.
