I watched Kitchen Nightmares last night the first hour episode was about Trobiano’s an Italian restaurant in NY. The restaurant is owned by Anthony a twenty five year old chef and his girlfriend’s parents. This was a recipe for trouble because Anthony’s girlfriend and her parents all worked at the restaurant and it was causing a huge strain on their restaurant. The restaurant was $500,000 in debt. The kitchen was dirty and even had mouse droppings bear the meat cutting station. The menu needed to be revamped and the décor was very drab. The restaurant had started an early bird special to help keep the place afloat but the portions were too big so Gordon Ramsay canned the early bird dinner specials entirely. Gordon also made Anthony help him clean the restaurant and even took the owners to a farm to milk cows and learn how to make fresh mozzarella.

The evening of the re-launch which showed off the restaurant’s new décor and menu had some bumps along the way. The biggest success of the evening was when they impressed a food critic and her guests. In the end, Gordon Ramsay gave Anthony an engagement ring to give to his girlfriend and he proposed. This episode was a very good episode. It had drama and romance at the same time.
