I just rewatched the episode of ‘Kitchen Nightmares’ where Gordon Ramsay tried to help the Black Pearl restaurant (a lobster restaurant in downtown NYC). One of the three owners, David, has to be the biggest asshat I’ve ever seen on ‘Kitchen Nightmares.’ I find, in general, the American version of the show is edited to show more drama than the UK version, but I don’t think it was clever editing in this case. It was hilarious to watch David on-camera talk about how much he hates the new food, then tell Ramsay he thinks it’s great. I was glad to hear they went out of business shortly after the show aired.
But the drama didn’t end there. Check out what is posted on the official website of the (now closed) Black Pearl Restaurant:
NEWS!
As it turns out, Gordon Ramsay is allegedly a philandering hypocrite. Maybe he’ll rot in hell, where he belongs!
…
Thank you to our friends and family for your support during the past four years, and thank you, God, for exposing this asswipe!
Even if you dislike Gordon Ramsay, what kind of thing is that to post on your official company website?! I hope Ramsay is laughing at them from his mountain of money somewhere, with his beautiful family, eating a fine lobster meal.
