Hell's Kitchen [Jen @ Demure Thoughts]

Just watched a hilarious new reality show on Fox called Hell's Kitchen with this Brit chef who's name escapes me but who seems to be of great notoriety holding a contest for the last chef standing to win his own restaurant. Knowing Fox it is probably an air conditioned Taco Stand somewhere in East L.A., but that is for another day.

This guy, whose name I will stop right now and look up...Gordon Ramsey... is a total jackass and I really like him. The show is typical of Fox Reality Shows and obviously scripted to a great degree, but who cares. This guy gives hard-ass slave-driving executive chef new meaning. His accent is thick and his tongue is sharp. Love him!

This guy served him steak with an oxtail reduction and grilled white pairs. He asks, "Why put white pairs with beef?" The idiot "Andrew" stumbles around and instead of saying "It wasn't my idea, it was Ralph's" he says, "It looks pretty..." with his mouth open and a bit of spittle collecting in the corner. Gordon says, "Ok, let's see if it works." He stacks his fork with a bit of beef, some green something, and a piece of pair. He chews it and swallows. "That doesn't work..." he says flatly. "Of course, Chef." Andrew the mouth breather says. "Take this away..." handing him the platter, "...this is fucking disgusting."

The entire show is like this. He is a total bastard. Did I mention I love him. Every time someone whines he just looks at them like they are idiot children and slaps them down. "Button it!"

This show is worth it just to hear him rant. He is like Simon from American Idol, only less gay.
