Gordon Ramsay might be able to add a new title to his already jam-packed roster of credentials. Michelin starred chef, restaurant owner, television personality and…therapist? Yup, you read that right.
Each week on Kitchen Nightmares, Gordon tries to rescue restaurants on the verge of collapse, and this often means dishing out a little of his signature tough love to the families and employees who run them. No one likes criticism, especially the restaurant owners who are already emotionally spent before Gordon even sets foot through the door. It’s no big surprise that emotions run high and egos get bruised in the process. Gordon told us how he can’t help but feel a bit like Dr. Phil as he attempts to get the restaurant owners and their staffs back on their feet. (Click on audio player to hear Gordon Ramsay)

When you order up an episode of Gordon Ramsay’s KITCHEN NIGHTMARES, there’s one thing you can always count on… You’re going to get a hefty helping of train-wreck with a tasty side of feel good TV. It’s both hard to watch, and difficult to turn away from. Filthy walk-ins? Check. Rancid meats and shellfish? Check. Burnt out owners, strained family members, passionless employees, and gaudy interior? Check, check, check, and check! But what makes this show so entertaining and fun to watch is what happens when Ramsay is able to press the reset button for these restaurant owners and help them find their long lost passion and mojo for their business (and perhaps your next dinning experience).
The season premiere finds Ramsay in Harrison, NJ at the Spanish Pavillion – another family owned restaurant that is sinking quick while tearing two brothers apart. With this episode in mind, we caught up with Ramsay and asked him if family owned restaurants have a harder time succeeding in the business. Click below to hear Gordon’s answer.
