It’s been a year since Chef Gordon Ramsey traveled cross country trying to save restaurants on the verge of collapse I’m going to be best off it’s well done Sam but not only did Gordon have to get rid of disgusting food he had to repair families who were at the breaking point
I’ve been [ __ ] doing that [ __ ] since I was [ __ ] 13 nice to you you don’t see me I took them out I’m not putting them back don’t argue about everything now Gordon is back to ask the questions we’ve been waiting a year to get the answers to take me from the top what
Happened after I left business from this time a year ago where are we is there anything you wanted you to say to me now that you didn’t get a chance to say last year tonight you will see emotional reunions as Gordon finds out what happened to the
Restaurants and the families he tried to save there’s jees in Detroit why don’t we ever add thousand this L right there I won’t even wipe my ass with it Joe at war with his son Sam mom CAU the crossfire all how many times you looked at me and said hey holy [ __ ] [ __ ]

Their kitchens back into nightmares I’m ready to rock and roll Last year Gordon tried to turn around restaurants across the country in a moment you’ll see how they’re doing today but first a look back at what Sant LaBrea was like just a year ago located in the heart of Hollywood Sant LaBrea felt like a good old-fashioned situation comedy there was the wacky owner
Dean his two sons Sammy and Arthur who think Dad has completely lost it I took them out I’m not putting him back [ __ ] even if I’m [ __ ] wrong do it there’s Mark the general manager with an embarrassing problem I don’t like wearing theod what can I tell
You and lastly there’s the grumpy Chef a real yo I can do whatever I want here so stupid what a [ __ ] but Sans laa was no laughing matter as this restaurant was failing miserably what’s the problem with the restaurant straight off what is it everyone takes advantage of me I’m
Not really making money I actually was spending money for last year when it came time for a healthy Santi laa lunch Gordon was horrified this restaurant Prides herself on being healthy that does not look healthy and they are disgusting therey you go buddy uh this here is a mobu and then came the
Dish which Gordon would forever identify with Sant LaBrea this is a joke didn’t know maduu means [ __ ] in Chinese that’s for sure how was it just in terms of the presentation it looked like a dog’s dinner then you get to taste it m it’s hideous so oh God
Jesus not that bad show me where the salmon is it was smelling fishy Dean was clearly in denial but the one thing he couldn’t deny was what Gordon found on an inspection of his kitchen it’s rotten your food is about as healthy as these vegetables when I smell [ __ ] hey I
Go straight for the [ __ ] juggler there’s nothing for me to say the biggest problem in this restaurant is you congratulations it’s a [ __ ] disgrace clearly Santa LaBrea had many problems but the one thing Dean had going for him was his two devoted Sons I see the tears

Back as for the customers they weren’t very happy with what Aurelia was doing either no we’re not very happy with this no minutes later Chef Ramsey unveiled another shocking Discovery what is that it’s fake duck fake duck after the last unhappy customers left there was one important matter that Chef
Ramsey had to deal with right away if I health inspector had witnessed what I witnessed just in one of the fridges bang Game Over clean this [ __ ] pig thigh this place does not deserve an A and the only thing you’re getting from me tonight is that an
F there is staying on now move your asses the staff clearly got the message and pulled an all nighter cleaning s LaBrea inch by Inch satisfied that Sant laa was now clean Gordon turned his attention to the food two specials on the menu s yes first dish is a halibut we’re going to cook it in the marinade second dish salad of shrimp local shrimp it’s really nice to see Chef Ramsey be able to take

Hollywood hit look at it it’s beautiful and I really like the sauce and the vegetables to Dean was thrilled thank you very much thank you and so was Chef Ramsey because this restaurant was one of the toughest turn rounds ever now it’s time to see how Santi laa
Is doing today I’m here at the scene of Hollywood’s biggest flop last year Sant laa now this place gave me a headache an even bigger stomach ache so I’m back to see if this Hollywood Story has a happy ending when Chef Ramsey goes to work on
Any of the restaurants he always does a thorough kitchen inspection and while some are absolutely fine others are a disgusting mess go here are the three worst inspections in Kitchen Nightmares history number three Fiesta Sunrise a Mexican restaurant in West nyak New York what’s that the burritos what’s that one
The chicken enchiladas what’s that that was the ground beef ground beef half of it [ __ ] fat you idiot it’s fatter than you what’s that the bean oh how it’s like a cement mixer ladies and gentlemen I’m so sorry but we’re stopping service number two Seascape in a family
Restaurant in iip New York God when was the last time this place was cleaned oh [ __ ] oh my God what is that so that’s the pesto I had for lunch this is 10,000 times worse than I thought it would be how dare you cook me a lunch out of this kitchen wall
You dirty Pig this is disgusting I’m closing it down and number one Dylan an Indian restaurant in New York City it’s beyond disgusting kill somebody what is that is that for rats or mice for to catch a that so we have got rats here rat is all over the place
Oh my god look I got one in my [ __ ] hair it’s cockroaches boxes full of them oh my god look there they are there oh [ __ ] hell oh my God look at that there you go now back to Santi laaa whose kitchen was no treat for Chef Ramsey either it’s
Rotten but another huge problem with this restaurant was the owner Dean you took a [ __ ] order don’t [ __ ] do it godamn it he lashed outed everyone including his two sons Arthur and Sammy don’t [ __ ] even if I’m [ __ ] wrong do it and then there was Mark the sweaty manager who really didn’t know
What to do damp it down or dry or absorb I don’t know it’s all leaking over oh my God [ __ ] it was a difficult turn around but Chef Ramsey left Santi labre in good shape for the future it’s a year later time to see if this Hollywood eery is still in the
Spotlight ah s Dela last year they gave me salmon that made me sick the ran manager had bo and I had to bribe the chef not to quit let’s see if these guys have finally got their act Together good morning good morning Gordon welcome back man good to see you man you’re looking good you’re looking fresh Al how are you good to see you Budd you well too um how’s things things are good things have been improved since last year and uh you know where is that
My father retired passed it on to us overseas he’s in Syria basically he’s overseas I’m shocked if there’s one thing that was a concern for me when I was here is just the level of anxiety and I suppose stress definitely over stress Dare I ask where is
He Mark ah where he’s in the back Mark no he’s not in the back no no Mark Mark has uh has we put him out the pasture Big Time M’s gone as well I do not miss Mark at all not for a second not for an
Ounce of my being nothing ao’s gone all the cancer the the chef’s gone as well oh yeah the guy was one of the many cancers that we had infecting this whole place I’m pleased to see you both standing strong more importantly the fact that the business you know is
Surviving we’re doing very well we have a quick look round before do that quickly go to the bathroom thank you all now they may never want to see Mark again but I certainly do we went to bloody Helen Back him and I hello hi Mark is Gordon Gordon how are you I’m
Very thank how are you listen I’m slightly shocked the fact that I just returned you’re not here can I um meet you in five or 10 minutes I know you live locally yeah that would be a problem okay good now just to keep it under wraps will you call me when you’re
2 minutes away so I can come out and meet you d i d please remember here oh of course the chicken comes in fresh I guess this is extra why are you lying first thing that hits me with the labels labels and dates look at the floor the floor’s clean enough to bloody
Eat off it no fear at all Gordon walking into the fridge I wanted to show him how organic and how clean everything is well done huh oh two seconds I just quickly get this hello hi okay okay two seconds one minute um so nice to talk to
You what a surprise what a surprise H first of all was good to see you why did you leave there was a little dissension between all of us um I didn’t never have the respect back after that um I was the butt of the joke do you miss working
There I missed the people it was nice I would have liked to have taken your menu and ran with it you’re still sweating look we’re not even working he’s still sweating so what are you doing apart from sweating besides sweating I’m working for a company right now that
Does raw food cuz I am into raw food H is there anything you wanted to say to me now that you didn’t get a chance to say last year give me a job say that again give me a job I thought that when you came along I thought maybe God delivered you yeah
Yeah yeah hold on hold on hold on hold on do something about your sweating first and I may think about it it’s like niiger falls on your arm it’s not n thank you good to see you look after yourself will you do the same all right Chef Ramsey’s revisit to Santi laa has
Been full of surprises shocked goner Mark the sweaty manager and aelo the belligerent chef but the biggest surprise was Dean who moved to the Middle East and left the restaurant to his sons when I first met your father I felt that he was on the verge of a
Nervous breakdown don’t eat Don’t drink don’t do anything here this is not good okay whenever I see that I’m going to be best off I don’t think we could we could really be committed 100% while he was still around because even if we did try
To make decisions and if we even if we did try to implement our own ideas he would just go over our heads and change things can we call in yeah middle of the night but I’m sure he’ll get up to talk to you there you go you’re dead there we go
Thank you thank you and Dean it’s Gordon how are you I’m fine thanks Gordon good listen I’m so sorry you’re not here but more importantly how have you been I’m I’m fine very well I I you know I appreciate you coming over again this year I think the boys are doing a great
Job and I’m sure you’re going to be incredibly proud of them when you come back and see what they’ve done they are good boys I appreciate your advice to me I’ve done exactly like you asked me to I need to take a break I think Dad’s very
Proud of us absolutely I mean the fact that he can actually leave and go overseas and chill with his family for a bit and leave the place with us I think he’s very very proud very happy and one more thing I want to say before we go magu thank you for byebye
Now so business month on month in from this time a year ago where are we I could say about 10% better so you’re up 10% even considering the recession so who replaced Mark Don yeah got my girlfriend in there she is you lucky man right see nothing I’m good I
Hope Salmon’s cooked beautifully nice and pink my God I told my chef make this one [ __ ] good that is delicious really good this is a asparagus dish Ginger and like a a vegan tofu cream sauce I’ve never been a big fan of tofu but you managed to make
It delicious it’s soy protein soy protein unen unchicken exactly I can’t believe you bastard made me eat that you stin that anyway I telling me you want to eat more would you not only that I’ve just said it’s delicious which it is delicious I stand by I wanted to wait
Till you took a couple bites you’re happy with that one aren’t you yes we fooled the uh we fooled the master honestly I’m very proud and more importantly fact that dad’s out of it and you know less stressful he can come back here one day and enjoy the fruits
Of his labor yeah and your talents keep it going absolutely if it wasn’t for Boron we’d probably be out of business I can easily say that well done good to see you guys take care yes take care well done Sammy and Arthur are well on their way they have a great location great
Healthy food and more importantly a manager that doesn’t sweat all over the menus a Hollywood Story with a happy Ending now it’s time for a quick update on Finn mul’s my young Chef Ramsey first visited them a few years ago buddy and his two sons were going bankrupt there was no significant Improvement how long could you afford to stay open for we’re in trouble right now the food was a
Disaster oh always the sign of a very insecure Chef when he mulates everything in bwh he go they had no customers why don’t more locals you come maybe they’ve come here and had a bad experience and didn’t want to come back Jason had no hope I’m worrying every night going to
Bed are you going to be able to pay this mortgage I Can’t Describe to you how stressful that is and Brian had given up in the kitchen I’m done working here in one week Chef Ramsey not only changed the restaurant but the family’s attitude as well last year when Chef Ramsey returned we
Found out that buddy maintained all the changes and business boomed business how’s it been the last 12 months we are up average across the board 35% great buddy was finally making money and Brian was a changed man you sound so confident Brian you know that we’re having fun it’s great unfortunately buddy suffered
A heart attack but is now doing fine this year another new development for the Mao family a buyer made buddy an offer he couldn’t refuse he turned a significant profit and he gives all the credit to Chef Ramsey we did everything he said and he was spot on buddy is now
Doing work as a private investigator as for his two sons they both remained at Finn mol’s I love my brother to death Jason is still Charming customers at the bar and Brian is still the chef and impressing everyone with his food perfect now it’s time to update on
Jeppis but first let’s take a look back at what this restaurant was like a year ago located about 30 minutes from Detroit this Italian restaurant was not only failing badly it was also tearing a family apart I how many times you looked at me and said hey good job not once they just
W tell me about that Joe the old school dad and his 28-year-old son Sam were at each other’s throats why can’t you show me the same set of balls that I had and just go up there and try it to make something out of it I feel that
Sometimes you hate me and wife and mother Kathy was caught in the middle I’m tired of playing referee I don’t want to be everyone’s mom on top of that Joe’s Health was failing and he was too stubborn to slow down when Gordon first arrived he had a sample of the menu
Jesus Christ it’s like a mouthful of Hubba Bubba and it soon became clear why this restaurant was being shunned by the locals can’t really identify any flavors because it’s just absolutely piping up almost like it’s being nuked in the microwave for 3 minutes that eggplant Bland milky spongy
Chef we got probably 3,000 respond that we did this question here and we didn’t get one negative thing about the food so where the [ __ ] are they then I don’t know all you’re doing is find me [ __ ] excuses don’t [ __ ] me and I won’t [ __ ] you do you understand
Yes that night Chef Ramsey was back to observe dinner service how are you today Goode how are you hi how are you my name is kol do that come off looks like a [ __ ] to in the kitchen Chef Ramsey was horrified that the microwave was cooking
More than the chefs how can they be rais potatoes in the microwave that’s the program here so just Happ he wants has he lost his [ __ ] marbles just minutes after customers ordered food you ready honey oh yeah I would like to ex me subpar food was flying out of the
Kitchen food comes out quick is that normal really quick too quick I think unfortunately as fast as the food went out that’s how fast it came back reorder the sauce is warm but the inside it needs to be warmed up this is supposed to be blackened it wasn’t blackened and that’s all
Fat the restaurant’s engine room the kitchen was a dysfunctional mess why don’t we ever add towels in this line there’s a towel right there I won’t even wipe my ass with that there’s towels right there there’s towel down here Joe did not like what that help how’s that
Steak on that redo you want me to cook it it doesn’t come out of my ass okay all right I hope it doesn’t come out of your ass don’t touch your steak what the hell Sam get your ass out of There with emotions between Father and Son still raw Chef Ramsey tried to mend the relationship is Sam a good Chef he’s he he likes to cook you don’t put enough time here to get involved where’s your fire in your belly I mean what can’t you show me the
Same set of balls that I had and just go up there and try to make something out of it I’ve been [ __ ] doing that [ __ ] since I was [ __ ] 13 nice to you you don’t see me you don’t see me see what Sam RIT scrubbing floor is nice to you
I’ve been wanting you to [ __ ] notice me for how long I don’t how many times you looked at me and said hey holy [ __ ] [ __ ] good job not once they don’t tell me about thatll the next night to bring order to this kitchen and avoid more fighting Gordon made sure everyone had specific
Rules you’re going to be Expediting in and out and you’re on the line yeah good good man but Joe couldn’t confine himself to just Expediting over cook his Sam it’s just boom boom done just moments later Joe was back at the stove doing what Sam was supposed to be doing
Joe are you Expediting no not really I can’t read with almond glasses your glass is around your neck [ __ ] I don’t like the I don’t like it it’s done Tam it looks like [ __ ] with Gordon’s encouragement Sam finally worked up the courage to stand up to his
Dad Sam yeah kick him off there I’m sorry Dad but your [ __ ] Sugar’s up you got to get off thank you late that night Gordon’s Crew worked around the clock to turn this restaurant into a modern Italian eery come through woohoo look at this oh my isn’t it
Beautiful it was claustrophobic now it’s a modern contemporary Italian restaurant oh my God he’s holding Sammy he was just born when I saw my father look at the pictures of me and him when I was a little boy you know when I saw a tear
Come to his eyes I almost lost it is it lovely it’s beautiful now that the restaurant had a contemporary look Chef Ramsey designed a menu to match it’s fresher it’s quicker it’s smaller and more importantly it’s 10 times more exciting the soups pastori Minon soup that’s the heartbeat of the
Restaurant if this restaurant’s got chance of survival we got to communicate and stick together tonight right now I’m so excited I feel like I’m 18 years old again 1 2 on relaunch night hello welcome to the new jeppi tra everyone was feeling optimistic I’m ready to rock and roll
But within an hour Sam was buckling under the pressure what’s wrong it’s raw oh [ __ ] he and suf Brian were falling behind and their standards started to drop we waited an hour for our food now I’m sitting here 20 minutes waiting for raw fish making matters even worse Ryan
Was not taking the relaunch seriously if I was rich sure the hell wouldn’t be here Chef Ramsey was having none of that and try to get the kitchen back on track s just quit the [ __ ] around you’ll see a difference the standard come on guys I know we can do better [ __ ] it

House back oh I will I’ll cry a day and life goes on yeah the only uh source of income that we have in Detroit area is the automobile in the street so that goes down everybody around the area goes down so it yeah it’s really really bad

The worst moment when when you were here last time is when my father got frustrated cuz the orders were coming back and he told me to you know get off my station don’t touch his thing what the hell Sam get your ass out of There the best no when when you asked him if he was Expediting and he said no not really I can’t read without my glasses your glass is around your Neck and best moment probably the letters cuz it was genuine and it was from the heart much needed Dear Dad I really truly only want you to be proud out of me I really am sorry if I disappointed you and even more sorry if I hurt
You I love you Dad you know we got together as a family you know that was the best thing now little surprise um ladies and gentlemen can I just have your attention for 30 seconds I’m going to welcome now two very important gentleman please yes from the Italian
American Chamber of Commerce to present to the family at jeppis a plaque please recognition of your commitment to honor the Italian Heritage we’re pleased to present this plaque to you thank you for authentic American Cuisine I felt you know like uh somebody got a golden G you know no speech wow I’m I’m
In shock first you come in you told me you like my food it’s an honor thank you I’ll treasure this for the rest of my life it was nice for me to see him beam and shine and be proud my the single most important thing that
Gordon did was to get my son and my husband on the same page respecting each other loving each other that he gave them a relationship they were lacking Gordon taught me you know that the family is the is everything so even if we don’t have the house or maybe someday
We don’t have the restaurant we got the family we have the strength only a month after Gordon’s visit the bouras decided to close down jeppis the bad Economic Times especially in Michigan made it difficult to keep the restaurant afloat the boures plan on looking for new opportunities once the
Economy improves in Michigan and although jeppis is no longer in business they will always be grateful to Chef Ramsey for it’s because of him this family’s Bond and love for each other is stronger than ever
