This Week on BBC America/Ramsay Kitchen Nightmares
Episode six - The Granary
The Granary in rural Hampshire is an upscale restaurant which, at 200 seats, is the biggest Gordon's ever taken on. Originally opened four years ago by entrepreneur Nigel Nieddu, the restaurant was relaunched after a four million dollar refit, but it's still losing $8,000 a week. It promises classy modern British cuisine, but in reality, the fussy menu features food sourced from all over the globe. The locals, intimidated by its exclusive reputation, are staying far away. While the head chef plays parole officer to his unruly teenage charges in the kitchen, Nigel stubbornly struggles to contain the front-of-house chaos he's created. Gordon's got to carry out radical surgery to prevent disaster. The kitchen needs a massive injection of discipline to stop the lippy apprentices, and it's time to get some passion back on the menu. But there's a meltdown on the horizon. Can Gordon persuade the headstrong boss to see the grim reality, or will the Granary bite the dust?
