Hell’s Kitchen Recap: Ineptitude Abounds

March 27, 2014 by tamaratattles 22 Comments

Gordon Ramsey

I don’t usually blog this show but I thought I would throw one up and see if y’all are interested. So far this season I have been less than impressed with the chefs this season. They seem dumber than usual and I don’t have any favorites so far.

As usual, on every reality show, the women are bickering and the men are inept. Neither team has managed to complete a service, and much swearing from Gordon Ramsey has occurred in both kitchens.

The women win the challenge (making potato side dishes) and go on a fabulous sailboat to watch the dolphins.

The women have someone who appears to be certifiably crazy on their team, Simone. Simone appears to be hallucinating. Another team member is physically quite ill. One of the guys cut his finger pretty bad on the mandolin. They are all going in at less than 100%

Joy and Anton are strong competitors. Both doing risotto. Both get high marks from Ramsey. Simone’s lobster tails are raw. She doesn’t seem to even know she is in a kitchen at all. Seriously, she is waaaay out there. She is working the fish station with Jessica and getting Jessica’s ass chewed too. Why are scallops so hard for them to cook? The fish station is a problem for Chris and Mike in the blue kitchen as well.

Ramsey throws Jessica and Simone out of the red kitchen. Then he threw the entire blue team out. Then the remainder of the red team is thrown out for undercooked meat.  Ramsey is pissed. Three services in a row that were not completed.  He says he is cutting a lot of people and he wants three nominations instead of two from each team.

The girls quickly agree on Simone, who they have continued to try to get out. And Rochelle, the sick one, and one of their better chefs, Sandra, “because of her attitude.” Hell anyone one would have an attitude working in that hot mess of a kitchen.

The guys put up, Mike (they think he is their weakest link) Demarco (finger chopping guy) and Chris (bad fish station).

Demarco, Mike and Simone are called down and stripped of their jackets. He gives them all ten seconds to plead their case. Crazyass Simone goes first and talks in a tiny baby voice. Mike can barely get a straight sentence out because he is dumb. Demarco makes a reasonable attempt. Ramsey says MY DECISION IS… and the little baby voice interrupts and says, “It’s okay Chef, I can go!” And everyone looks at her like she is crazy because, well, her lunch pail is missing the sandwich. So he tosses her. Then he gives Mike and Demarco their jackets back.

Next week: The women do much better without Simone. The men get very jealous of the women. One guy’s anger may cause his to get physical with a female chef or two.

    You would think chefs would practice their risotto , scallops and Beef Wellington before competition ?

      I know, right? And Hallibut. It’s the same ten dishes every season. And have some sort of a special recipe or six that you make really well and try to work them into a challenge? These people are awful.

      I like Joy and I think his name is Anton, the one that did a potato soufflé.

        TT, seriously, I was watching this show just hoping you would recap it! My son and I have been watching this forever. He’s a teenager and been known to wave his arms around in front of the tv like a maniac yelling: “you came here and you can’t cook scallops? You can’t cook risotto? What did you sign up for??” I get the drama aspect, but these people are supposed to ultimately win a head chef spot at a legit restaurant. I wouldn’t let most of these people near a microwave.

        The guy that did the potato soufflé and the first guy who put his dish up did great. Most of the dishes looked burnt. Just bc that one fella used too much rosemary doesn’t mean the whole team should have lost to the the chick that brought up that frozen perogi looking thing.

    None of them are chefs by any stretch. They are linecooks. And not even good ones. It’s a freakshow, not a cooking show. I watch, but it’s not like Top Chef. It’s like the National Enquirer to the Wall Street Journal. Bring it to Dance Moms. A garden burger to a hamburger.

    Who casts these people? Simone is obviously a mental case. She didn’t even pretend to know how to cook.

    This by far the worst set of cooks I have seen. I have never seen them not complete so many services. Im surprised he hasn’t sent all of their asses packing. I totally agree with you when you say they need to practice.

        MasterChef Junior! Those kids were mind boggling and I’m looking forward to the 2nd season with relish 🙂 This motley crew on Hell’s Kitchen isn’t even in the same league, but if Gordon Ramsey is on, I’m watching. Love me some Gordon Ramsey.

    Great recap TT and I agree with most of the comments. Simone was a head case but these really are not chefs. Plus this group looks dirty with a couple of exceptions. I would not want to eat their food. Did any of you see that one guy blow on a fry pan of food that started to flare up? Ugh!

      I noticed. I was just hoping the heat killed all the nasty germs he spewed all over the place.

        @ Gingersnap: Ditto. I love me some Gordon Ramsey, too. I love Kitchen Nightmares. Have you noticed how on the BBCA version they always have him taking his shirt off every episode? Lol! The Master Chef Jr. show was wonderful. My son and I watched this show, and he does this great impression where he jumps up and down and shrieks: “Whip it!! Whip it like a man, Gavin!!!!” Hilarious!

    I love this show…watch it every season…I watch these microns on amazement…I wouldn’t hire them to flip burgers at McDonald’s let alone put them on a line in a kitchen…I am no professional chef but my dad was and my brothers as well..this shit they cook…sooo simple and they still screw it up…makes me question their experience Lol I tune in to watch Gordon lose his shit every week…highly entertaining and I think it would be great if you blogged it!

    I have watched this show from the very beginning and I am really curious to find out if any of the past winners actually still have their jobs at any of Gordon Ramsey’s restaurants. The crew this year are a bunch of idiots. They couldn’t cook a decent meal at home let alone a restaurant. I love that you are blogging about the show TT!

    I love this show. I watch it every season but this season is the worst! None of these people can cook! They can’t even get through one dinner service. Not sure if I will watch it any longer.

    Can you keep blogging this show – I need someone to rant and rave with…
    This comment right here: “They seem dumber than usual and I don’t have any favorites so far”..I co-sign. I don’t like or trust any of them. And why did Ramsey even let the clown who used canned food as his signature dish on the show? All of them are annoying, except for that girl who knew how to make the risotto..
