Hell's Kitchen

[2005, TV Show]

Despite a couple of bumps, the chefs were still able to complete their second consecutive dinner service with minimal outbursts from Gordon. But of course, it wouldn't be Hell's Kitchen without a few tongue lashings from Chef Ramsay, and tonight's recipients were definitely deserving.The episode kicked with each of the team's bad-mouthing their perceived weak (or at... read full recap

I am probably in the minority, but I like Jen. She has a little attitude, but so does Chef Ramsey if she was smart she would reign it in during the competition, but I am sure its hard... read more

Episode Recap: Sweet 16 Party | Hell's Kitchen Show Blog | 5/7/2008
Despite a couple of bumps, the chefs were still able to complete their second consecutive dinner service with minimal outbursts from Gordon. But of course, it wouldn't be Hell's Kitchen without a few tongue lashings from Chef Ramsay, and tonight's recipients were definitely deserving.The episode kicked with each of the team's bad-mouthing their perceived weak (or at least most disliked) links: Christina from the red team and Matt from the blue. Ben admitted that he and Bobby have formed a bit of an alliance, while Matt maintains that Ben is simply hiding behind Bobby. Meanwhile, Christina and Corey continue their verbal catfight, which ultimately ends in Christina accepting the fact that she is the outcast who will probably continue to be nominated for the chopping block. For the first challenge, the teams visit the farmer's market to buy food and prepare the menu for their real challenge — cooking for HK's first-ever Sweet 16 party. Although both teams went a bit too gourmet... read more
Episode Recap: Gourmet Pizza | Hell's Kitchen Show Blog | 4/30/2008
So the chefs finally completed a full service for the first time on this season of Hell's Kitchen. But that didn’t mean there weren't plenty of embarrassments along the way and plenty of angry Gordon Ramsay.Tonight's episode began with the gang learning how serious Vanessa's burn really was. Bobby seem dumbfounded (or is that just natural?) when she said she would have to have plastic surgery. The cast on her hand was obviously a concern going into the next day's challenge, and it showed immediately. No one was more vocal about the problem than Vanessa herself, who was angry at her own uselessness, but vowed to still wow Chef Ramsay in the first challenge.Tonight's task was to create a gourmet pizza, along the lines of the $200 white truffle pizza Gordon serves in his restaurant in London. I loved the montage of the ingredients, especially Bobby's contribution (What the heck is a Sea Murchin, there four-star general Bobby?) Each team must submit one pizza to be judged by... read more
Episode Recap: Family Night | Hell's Kitchen Show Blog | 4/23/2008
Sorry for the delayed posting. I had one of those nights last night. Hope you guys forgive me!Well tonight was another colossal failure for the men's team. Though both teams finally completed a dinner service, the men had plenty of undercooked food and even more communication problems, which again cost them a team member. (Though I'd say at this point, losing dead weight is of benefit for them!)The show kicked off with Ramsay calling Ben a punk as he exited the previous eviction ceremony. Bobby (genius that he is) cornered Ben and said, "He's serious, huh? He mean's business." You think? I mean he's only giving away a quarter million dollar contract! Instead of heading off to bed, the chefs are sent back into the kitchen to clean up after their last disaster. Despite some grumbling, most of the chefs team together and get the job done. But Corie's early exit from the kitchen angers some of her teammates — a move that comes back to bite her when she volunteers herself as the... read more
Episode Recap: Family-Style Chicken | Hell's Kitchen Show Blog | 4/16/2008
Hi, guys! I'm Adam Bryant, and I will be posting weekly recaps of Hell's Kitchen for the remainder of the season. Sorry for missing the first two episodes, but there was a changing of the guard so to speak. (Believe me, I could have written pages on Chef Ramsay's terrible prosthetics and the vomit-inducing signature dishes!) But now we're cooking with gas, and I look forward to sharing my thoughts each week as well as reading your comments. So let's get to it. The episode kicked off with the girls' team still reeling from Corey's "vindictive and hateful" nominations. Although Chef Ramsay overruled Corey's nominations, a new tone was already set in the girls' side of the house, as both Christina and Jen became very defensive and even vowed revenge. I don't blame Corey for looking out for herself (it is a competition, after all), but perhaps she should have waited a couple more dinner services before getting personal. In truth, she's really only placed a bigger target on her own... read more
Hell's Kitchen Season 1 — Review | DVD News and Reviews | 4/16/2008
In case the new wannabe chefs of Hell's Kitchen's current season haven't won you over just yet, this 3-disc Season 1 release will provide you with a few familiar faces to enjoy as you watch Gordon Ramsay torture them through culinary boot camp all over again. If you're anything like me, you'd buy this set just because you love watching Ramsay go nuts on his underlings (an experience now enhanced with the uncensored audio track!) But if you need a little more, the DVD also includes a one-on-one interview with Ramsay, interviews with the show's producers and a behind-the-scenes tour of the Hell's Kitchen restaurant. On the downside, that previously mentioned uncensored audio track is the only one on the disc, so if you're hoping for family-friendly viewing, you're just out of luck. Otherwise, sharpen your knives and enjoy the Hell out of this one! — Adam Bryant Buy Hell's Kitchen Season 1 at Amazon.com read more
