You get to be the home chef representative on Hell’s Kitchen and you get 46 minutes to make a signature dish. What is it? Mine would be a sirloin steak with homemade Montreal seasoning seared in a pan and finished in the oven. Pan deglazed with red wine and beef stock and reduced to a jus with roasted mushrooms. Roasted garlic mashed potatoes (red with skin still on). Tons of butter and just a splash of cream. Roasted asparagus with just olive oil, salt, and pepper. ---

I’d spread the rumor that the asshole club threw him out because he was giving them a bad name. ---

I’d spend a couple of weeks beforehand mastering beef wellington, risotto and scallops and make that my signature dish. ---

Some French toast and a shot of tequila… bwahahahaha! No, how about a pork tenderloin in a creamy mustard sauce and horseradish mashed potatoes? ---

Broiled salmon steak & asparagus spears under hollandaise sauce, probably. I am very proud of my shiitake-enoki risotto, but would be terrified to submit it to Gordon Ramsay’s criticism. ---

Whatever I could come up, he would rip it apart, most assuredly. Today I made risotto for the first time. It turned out great and was actually fairly easy to make. Though he’d likely think it too safe and unpersonal of a signature dish. So perhaps some kind of soup. ---

After eating one peice of my prime rib, he’d offer to fellate me for a second. It’s that good. ---
