young immature owner spent more time running to the bathroom than running her restaurant breaks me down like no one else has me for and will check in on Anna venzo in boa ratan Florida can I get some [ __ ] servers back here run by a hotard owner who is completely resistant to change oh you’re going to get your [ __ ] ass kick finally we’ll get updated on liistro in Lighthouse Point Florida he wants to me R go [ __ ] himself Andy the owner not only lashed out at his customers you you’re looking for naked women dancing on the table he went after Chef Ramsey as well you don’t intimidate me what tonight you will see it all I can’t keep doing it I’m done whose restaurants are cooking and who turned their kitchen back into a nightmare can I hit him now when I arrived in Manhattan Beach wow this is a California Dream I wanted to move there this little town was amazing just half an hour outside La beautiful beaches beautiful people but one of its local restaurants Leo was an ugly mess biggest problem Lisa an owner completely clueless on how to run a business I don’t want to hear complaints I don’t want to hear [ __ ] I just want to hang out hi she had a couple of diplomas big deal the problem was that Lisa treated Leo less like a business and more like a sociiety party Damian is bar manager and someone that I have been kind of dating in the last 6 months thank you hello Hi how are you very well thank you how are you good I’m Lisa henet Lisa nice to see you how old are you if you don’t mind me ask 28 28 so you got it when you were 23 what was that a graduation present no so I’m going to have a quick bite to eat okay thank you that’s just gross huh this was definitely going to be a big challenge oh I’ll by pass thank you crazy the chefs were a pair of brothers ororo and lisis that night’s dinner service I realized Lisa wasn’t holding them to any standard in the kitchen whatso ever when was the last time you looked in this fridge uh I never really examined it how long ago do you think that was slice I don’t know roughly couple of days couple of days that is Gary the old food was disgusting but what I found next was an absolute disgrace stop you everybody stop Lisa come here when was the last time this place was cleaned they should be cleaning every day but look everywhere disgusting look at it this is above food I mean come on Louise I am not serving food like this okay that is disgusting I don’t think it really has affected or gone in the food like how do you know Lisa just wasn’t getting it so I had no option but to do something really drastic all these tables here can I borrow for 2 seconds please follow me I just stopped serving food in here because of the [ __ ] and the Dust are you interested in being served dinner without filth that’s your customers you need me to tell you that laugh I’m not laughing I think you’re a jerk excuse me Lista just over it you come out make us look like [ __ ] in front of like friends and customers Lisa you’re totally oblivious to what’s happening in your business you may have bought the r at 23 my darling but you’re not [ __ ] running it grow up Lisa will you things were getting surreal while the staff were cleaning the kitchen he’s right it’s [ __ ] filthy the customers were getting impatient we’ve been waiting too long and Lisa was hiding in the toilet she’s in the restroom and the restroom is in the [ __ ] Lisa let’s go breaks me down like no one else has me for I can’t go out there [Music] that’s clean yeah yeah it’s the cleanest I’ve ever seen it Lou okay we start firing up again now yeah everybody was pitching to save the dinner service Lisa disappeared to the L in fact she stayed in there all freaking night until that last customer left how embarrassing is [Music] that is that the kind of trick that they teach you in an honor degree to disappear in a toilet that’s not the way to face problems what was I supposed to do like do you want me to go back in dust like I don’t get what you’re trying to say so no one’s ever told you the truth but more importantly I think you’re in denial why am I here because we need help and I’m missing a key ingredient obviously tomorrow new start up until that point Lisa hadn’t given me one reason for me to believe in her but the next day she honestly surprised me things that I would like to change about Leo today M be proud of the food we’re serving keep a clean and sanitary environment learn how the kitchen operates tonight you yeah here we are are on the line that’s right yeah are you Ser I’m very serious it became so obvious so quickly that Lisa had never spent time in a kitchen before how ridiculous is that Lisa get comfortable with it yeah yeah get comfortable why is this not turning on this is hot I don’t know what to do with it keep it here whoa why is it flaming okay Lisa may never be a chef got it but at least she started showing interest in the food why isn’t it going there I think it’s a very valid point why is it going in the microwave why can’t it Go the oven’s on yeah yeah it’s on you see what I’m trying to say just really important for you to see this dinner service did have its ups and downs but I did like what I’ve seen coming out of Lisa and that night we transform leader come in come in come in come in oh my God it’s beautiful that horrendous wall that was dividing your restaurant has gone now the whole thing just feels open and one thing you’ve got every chance of succeeding in is becoming M hands yeah local cool Wine Bar serving great food great Wines By the glasses more importantly a very cool place to hang out everybody was so excited with the new menu the homemade chicken sausage grilled baby AR chokes one of my favorites flatbreads they are fantastic and the energy levels for relaunch night was an alltime high 1 2 3 Le do it welcome to the new Leo thank you enjoy some wine today yeah it didn’t take long for all hell to break loose I’m begging just to talk to each other Artur will you please tell her to make some food I’m trying right now I’m doing my stuff too and then the unthinkable happen you know we’re out of here we we’re out of this [ __ ] the entire kitchen team disappeared oh no no oh my God hello we’re giving up by too we’re giving up Sir yeah I know you’re giving up why is this what they do Lou Lou never seen that ever before in my entire cooking

do I seriously believe in you thank you I can’t wait to come back I can’t wait to have you back I’ll be your honor student good night well then my darling thank you so much good luck spend time with that kitchen [Music] I’m back at Leo in Manhattan Beach now last time I was here the owner spent more time in the bathroom than she did in the kitchen has she grown up and turned her business around we’re about to find out Leos was run by a young laidback californ I don’t want to hear complaints I don’t want to hear [ __ ] I just want to hang out Lisa was not only friends with her employees do you have his phone number she was hooking up with the bartender it’s probably a bad idea but I’m going to do it anyways and when Chef Ramsey wanted Lisa to face the cold hard truth grow up Lisa will you she fell apart and went into hiding where is Lisa is she G upstairs in the restroom yet she in the restaurant Chef Ramsey transformed the restaurant and finally got Lisa to act like a responsible owner and less like a party girl now one year later is Leo’s on the path to success or on the road to failure last time was at Leo the owner Lisa didn’t have a clue how to run a business the food was rotten the kitchen was filthy dirty and she couldn’t understand to why customers weren’t showing up I’m dying to see how a business is doing now Embrace myself hello how are you my daddy good to see

businesswoman and if she can turn her business around and increase sales by 20% in the midst of recession then trust me sky’s the limit for Leos beautiful boa ratan Florida to most people a wealthy Beach town just 1 hour north of Miami but when I think of boka I only think of one thing CeCe here’s your F tell everybody to [ __ ] go home I’m shutting the place down she was a real piece of work

Angelo he lent his daughter 300,000 bucks to get her started now he’s working for her I stay up at night just thinking how am I going to give him his money Michael yes and her husband Michael the head server he was too scared to say a word to her here’s your salmon deino salad that is until I arrived and tasted her bloody cooking that has to be Florida’s worst dish ever if he complains about this I’m really going to [ __ ] kick his ass this one looks like a uh dog’s dinner so he is a bigger [ __ ] than I thought just taste that for me would you that’s the Snapper Anna soy should be baked a little longer it’s [ __ ] disgusting yes [ __ ] him [ __ ] him Chef Ry surprised nobody break his legs here after my disgusting lunch I headed into the kitchen to confront CC you didn’t taste the Snapper am I going to eat something off of your plate where Michael what difference does it make with [ __ ] Michael is he’s got nothing to do with it he tasted it and what did he say he said it was mush are you [ __ ] kidding me where is he you said the [ __ ] fish was mush no it was tender the way everybody else enjoyed yeah it was tender Michael are you honestly trying to tell me that you’re now saying that was perfectly cooked what a joke a bunch of yes men telling Madam exactly what she wants to hear come on so you want me to be your [ __ ] pupp because you’re pissing me the [ __ ] off

lot of people said you were a jerk I think I believe it that night I thought I was coming to observe dinner service instead I got a front row seat to witness a complete emotional breakdown can I get some [ __ ] servers back here the has no flavor at all they just say it’s no flavor but they’re willing to let you try to put some flavor in it like garlic I I just don’t want to put nothing in it CeCe was the Queen the queen of bland Frozen Cuisine it was no surprise food was coming back time and time again I need this uh reduce down a little more and add Michael you know what I’m ready to tell everybody just to leave just don’t even want to hear it right now we can’t just F like a precious princess yeah I I look like a [ __ ] princess right sry I thought this was your restaurant I think Princess Diana didn’t hang out in the [ __ ] kitchen she’s from your neck of the woods isn’t she wow I’m done what’ you mean you’re done everything’s [ __ ] coming back what are I stand here [ __ ] keep cooking for nothing I’ve had chefs quit on me before but not when they’ve owned the damn restaurant are you going to be right or you going to P out I can’t get my breath Michael and I got behind the line to finish off service afterwards I decided it was time for Cece and I to have a serious heart tohe [Music] heart is not a joke for me I care if I care would [ __ ] be here so stop saying I don’t care just stop please I haven’t said that yes you did it’s not a sign of weakness to admit your failings I’ve closed three restaurants but I also have a number of successful ones 1,650

doesn’t matter that shop looks burned from here it’s done like that just send it out just send it out service it’s [ __ ] guys I’m going to flip my lid and none of you have seen me go [ __ ] crazy yet you know what I don’t [ __ ] give a [ __ ] if CCE had sent that burnt pork chop out as far as I was concerned she was history and the restaurant was going to go under I was really hoping she was going

success okay for out start this table eggplant Parmesan B marcala spaghetti bowling is no more fuckups we don’t have time thank you that’s what I need to hear we’re going to handle it that looks

course you can come here you well [Music] done back back in batan Florida to visit anav chenzo when you think anav chenzo you think CeCe my goodness me what a girl full of tantrums and tears we made a lot of changes and I can’t wait to see how they’re doing more importantly what kind of mood is CeCe in Anna venzo an Italian restaurant in boa ratan Florida was run by one of the most volatile chefs Gordon has ever met can I get some [ __ ] service back here CeCe was either losing her temper well we can’t just th like a precious princess yeah I I look like a [ __ ] princess right or her composure it took a lot of tears but Chef Ramsey gave CeCe the tools to succeed but now one year later Anna venzo gone Chef Ramsey returns to find out that Anna venzo has gone out of business damn looking for some answers Chef Ramsey turns to the one person who would give him the honest truth former server Ashton good to see you good to see you too now what happened first off did she slip back to her old ways yeah oh no like right when you left no she’s like well the prices are way too cheap so she made the prices more but then she also lowered the portion size oh my God so it’s like she’s doubling price and making everything half the size that’s stupid determined to get CC side of the story Chef Ramsey paid a visit to her home [Music] what a beautiful place okay than oh my goodness me look at you hello holy crap what happened uh I lost a half the secret to weight loss is stress I mean that’s like the quickest the quickest remedy cannot believe and venzo yeah it’s gone yeah we said goodbye what happened I sold I’m finding that hard to understand why when it meant so much to you at the time it’s just too much of my personal things got in the way and it was just more important my kids are the most important thing once you have your children your life changes completely Anna Venza was my first baby I had to make a choice I couldn’t do both my family’s always come first I was rest busy yeah and we were doing good but uh the opportunity came up and I want to be with my kids and how’s Angela how’s Dad he’s good [ __ ] him [ __ ] him Chef Ry surprised nobody break his legs you and what about his feelings of saying goodbye to the rest he has the same mixed feelings like oh jeez am I ever going to make a pizza again or did you pay the money back whatever I’m getting from the sale is going to him good and um Michael how is he we’ve uh separated damn I’m sorry and what happened because you two seem to be getting on just fine I don’t know everyday life pressure of the business and

for nothing I was I was under a lot of stress okay so you’re at home with the children on a daily basis do you have a job you know you can give me a job I can work in one of your kitchens I can give you a job I’d be great work for you well you can’t just F like a precious princess yeah I I look like a [ __ ] princess right yeah but I’m not [ __ ] that crazy I was like oh my God okay no wait I’m a different woman now I’m going to stay calm go back 12 months the worst moments I think the worst worst was when you told me that I didn’t care I care if I didn’t care would [ __ ] be here so stop saying I don’t care just stop please I’m happy you’ve made that decision to commit to the family and you know more than anyone what’s right for you and you follow your instincts I was just sad in the fact that I returned and then venzo wasn’t run by CC but I’m happy to see you’re in a good State thank you I think Gordon and I are very similar in the sense that on the outside it’s a tough shell and then on the inside it’s you know soft take care of yourself you do the same yeah he’s not that bad of a guy not that bad look at that [Music] when you move to Lighthouse Point Florida you know you’ve made it minutes from boar ratan this little town is filled with mansions and millionaires but the locals who dared step into the Beast stro were treated like crap he wants to me R time go [ __ ] himself you Andy the owner was so bloody arrogant his motto was the customers always wrong steak is Grizzly what the [ __ ] out of here that’s beautiful beef tanine they’re a local C I don’t give a [ __ ] Andy was an angry man and no one knew it better than his sta hey what’s that [ __ ] over there get off the shelf his poor wife Ellen ran the front of house be happy don’t be aastro it’s fine it’s upy it was bleeding money and I was determined to find out why as usual I started with the food okay oh here’s the riette m b py thank you one bite nearly sent me straight to the dentist chair one little bite I me I just ch my tooth didn’t like Duck cartilage Christ show him the bone as well Jesus I just bust my tooth here man he found the bones on Duck doesn’t go away I give Andy another shot with his famous lamb Curry roll sounds very French right very rubbery something was very wrong you hear it Andy had studied in top missioning restaurant just like me but I promise you I’ve never ever cooked crap like that the briet I don’t know if anyone give you feedback but it was on the verge of breaking my tooth I’m the chef you don’t like it that’s fine it’s your opinion [ __ ] we no good I’m lousy whatever [ __ ] me do you have issues as if bad food and a defensive owner weren’t bad enough that night I discovered another problem the service slow is Alex the only Tak orders in there yes one person takes the orders and it slows down things for Andy amazing Andy wouldn’t allow any other waiter to take orders not only that so do you actually cook as well or not I can but Andy does not let me cook we wouldn’t let his suf do anything but stand around this is definitely his little kingdom here isn’t it his little oneman band hey hey hey we don’t have time for talking I don’t care if it’s him or the queen Jesus when food finally arrived it was quickly sent back to the kitchen Andy she wants it well but not charred they ask to meet him well have to meet him well she wants it more whatever I’d stop right there I you and go away treat your wife like a [ __ ] dog don’t BR my wife into it I’m going to do it you know why don’t bring my [ __ ] wife into it don’t you [ __ ] go there don’t point that [ __ ] [ __ ] I like well just calm down [ __ ] man you’ve never ever ever understood the value of your customers let alone your staff because you don’t give a [ __ ] about them I’m a loser everybody I’m the worst God obviously Andy was far too proud and stubborn to hear the truth from me so I had a little trick up my sleeve the next morning I invited him and Ellen out for a little boat ride how cool is this terrific got a little surprise for you Sam you been ni sandwich [ __ ] now stop thinking about your tummy in this room are your previous customers and they’ve got some very important information to tell you it just in general did not live up to our expectations you know you walk through the door it’s kind of dark loomy there’s no one in there at all you know it’s very uncomfortable honestly deep down are you looking for naked women dancing on the table what are you looking fory relax what are you looking for relax relax relax they don’t want to see naked dancers on the table come on Andy these are customers at that night’s dinner service Andy was up to his old tricks I need all the Entre now Alan don’t make matters worse it’s bad enough having him on my ass I’m just saying six has been there forever to prove a point I went to the restaurant next door and ordered dinner would you mind if I order to go no sir not at all say tuna okay how long about 10 minutes sure enough 10 minutes later I was enjoying a great meal that is absolutely delicious while impatient customers sat inside I pulled outside for a wake up call they are full I’m just trying to show you what’s happening on your doorstep we’re going to have to have a serious talk after the last angry customer left the moment I’ve been waiting for and he finally let his guard down you’re about to blow it completely we at that point you you’ve brought it to light you’ve came and you’ve told us and you’ve showed us and you’ve brought it to light encouraged my team and I spent the night completely renovating liistro have a look at your new sign oh that’s fabulous modern legible does it look nice I love it ready to go inside have a look this is great G of the booths oh thank God take a seat I also reworked Andy’s menu the gaspacho perfect for a hot summer evening oysters local oysters extraordinary steam muscles I would order that perfect for Rel night I invited a bunch of local VIPs we’re anxious to try oh I’m so anxious I’m glad you’re here you are thank you and the night got off a great start but soon enough Andy reverted to his bad old ways come here two seconds please CH what the [ __ ] is going on there this one’s more cooked than Chef I couldn’t believe it Andy was about to send out undercooked food and completely ruined his relaunch night I quickly pulled him outside and gave him a big gut check where’s the standard you right I admit that you coming in big eye opener I was so pleased the arrogance and the defensiveness were gone and he marched back into the kitchen and saved the biggest night of his career you know what you could do would be nice if you put the spinach on for me snap is delicious they did a really good job thank you very much I finally saw the man I’ve been dying to see you C brilliantly well you’re a different Man without you it wasn’t possible we appreciate it take care of that stubborn mule yes thank you well done good [Music] job I’m back in Lighthouse Point Florida to visit liistro if you came here last year you would have been treated to slow service mediocre food and a very arrogant owner we got to it made a lot of changes I’m back to find out with all that work has paid off Chef Ramsey has dealt with a lot of stubborn owners but Andy at liistro was in a league of his own don’t you [ __ ] go there it wasn’t easy but Chef Ramsey got through to Andy and helped turn the business around now one year later is liistro still thriving or has Andy gone back to his old ways last time was at the beastro the food was awful the service was slow and the business was falling apart worse than that Andy wouldn’t change a thing more importantly he just wanted to fight with me we managed to turn him and the business around I’m just hoping he stayed on that right path please look at this place how are you welcome back good to see great to see you you look great you look fantastic thank you we’re great we’re great everything is great um in general business business has been great 10% up 5% up where are we uh maybe 20 20% up M that’s great news big question I’ve been dying to ask is he still stubn he wants to Mee him R time go [ __ ] himself well certain things won’t change but he’s actually become a lot more lighthearted he was a tough nut to crank I know that where is he he’s back there in the kitchen yes d i oh please oh jeez here we go good luck thank you hey hey how you doing very well how are you see I can see how clear this place is now the big fridge gone can you communicate a lot easier now with the waiters why you can see now the big question for me have you started the delegate yes definitely you’re changing you didn’t like the customers last time round steak is Grizzly get the [ __ ] out of here that’s beautiful beef tanine they’re a local customer I don’t give a [ __ ] oh you know I think you just get used to people I think more yeah of course I think the biggest thing that I got after Gordon Ramsey being here was change is good and we did a lot of changes so we did a lot of good okay I’m hungry what’s on the menu um surprise me yeah good good good way he looks relaxed in there oh yeah he is I’m almost uh almost like a changed man he’s different but I mean Karma he’s more comfortable with what he’s doing with being here at leish show so has he become less of a snob and more of a local yes he has I believe that Gordon helped Andy out of the mindset that he’s working in a three star Michelin restaurant in Paris or London thank you amazing thank you I uh I’ve heard you turn into a bit of a uh a sort of light-hearted uh talented serious comedian stroke Chef now H please take a seat even though I felt confident that Gordon would love the food there must have been a little tension for Andy based upon what happened the last time delicious really good so tender it made me feel good to see the reaction on his face cuz he generally seemed to like the food so a leopard can change his spots for you the worst moment probably the boat the boat cuz that hurt you know you walk through the door it’s kind of dark gloomy there’s no one in there at all it’s very uncomfortable honestly deep down are you looking for naked women dancing on the table what are you looking for hey relax what are you looking for relax relax and I know you did that to make a strong point very valid point yeah
