Apologies for the lack of uploads on this channel lately! Been away on holiday for the first time in 6 years so just had a bit of time to relax and that. Back to doing what I love now. Hope you enjoy this one❤ Longest solo vid yet x
The restaurant closed in december 2011 after dealing with a declining local economy and negative reviews. Abby worked as a personal trainer until 2021 and is now in the painting industry. Rico still works in finances to this day.
Kudos to Cam for worrying about Abby. I admit she wasn't the one I was worried about. Rico let himself be carried along on the roller coaster to disaster. 19:21 Glad Rico is OK, but there's no such thing as a "sleeping partner" when the business is tanking. He should have stood up to Abby, or at least have encouraged his workers to come to him with grievances, customer complaints and suggestions. I hope all the serving staff and kitchen staff found other jobs with better employers.
I'm so impressed by how generous and understanding you are here about Abby, giving her the benefit of the doubt and showing her empathy. This is an AMAZING quality of yours that I admire, because I usually can't muster it the way you so easily do.
Most chefs have a reliance on energy drinks, smoking/vaping and an unethical amount of alcohol after the shift to relax yourself (from past experience, it helps you chill after stressful shifts)
23:00 I'm currently in college of hospitality. I’ve worked in restaurants to gain experience with how food gets tampered with all the time. I worked in a 5-star hotel once, and there was a horrible guest who would abuse the staff relentlessly. She was going on a road trip, and the staff put laxatives in her food. Great video. Keep up the good work!
I don't know what it is but any time something super stressful happens, I wind up binging Kitchen Nightmares. And now my favourite TV show blogger is on the case? Chef's kiss
"My restaurant is failing, I'm going bankrupted, the customers hate my food, the staff hate me, I had to resort to hiring one of the best 5-star chef's in the world to save my restaurant. But how would I rate my business from 1 to 10? 10, obviously!" X0
19:54 it truly is difficult to admit that not only have you failed, but that *_you're_* the reason why you failed, it's a hard, but necessary lesson to learn in life. It's necessary for our happiness
I genuinely think that the producers or someone swaps the food around in the refrigerator downstairs because she was like “it wasn’t like that before you came”
"I just finished watching this episode of Kitchen Nightmares, and I have to say, it was one of the most intense and eye-opening episodes I've seen. The sheer amount of tension in the kitchen, along with the owner's blatant refusal to acknowledge the problems, was both heartbreaking and infuriating to watch. It’s difficult to fathom how someone can be so disconnected from the reality of their business, especially when you see the passion that Gordon Ramsay brings to help them. What struck me the most was how the lack of communication between the staff and the owner created such a toxic environment. It’s a reminder that a successful restaurant is not just about the food; it’s about the team dynamics and leadership. The way Ramsay tried to mediate and teach them about the importance of teamwork was inspiring, but it was painful to see them struggle to accept criticism. It also made me reflect on the impact of negative attitudes in any workplace. The chef’s frustration was palpable, and it’s a stark reminder of how critical positive reinforcement and constructive feedback can be in fostering a healthy work culture. It’s so crucial for restaurant owners and chefs to be receptive to change and to be willing to learn. I hope other struggling restaurant owners watch this and take note of the consequences of stubbornness and pride. Overall, this episode left me with a mix of emotions. It's a testament to Ramsay’s dedication to helping others, and a wake-up call for those who don't realize that sometimes you need to swallow your pride to save what you love. Kudos to the crew for their hard work, and I truly hope they find a way to turn things around moving forward. This episode was a harsh but necessary reminder of the realities of the restaurant industry."
Okay how is this worst than Amy, the crazy cat lady? Not only did Gordon walk out on them, but in the followup episodes when they come back to see what happened a year or so after the episode went out, Gordon made a whole episode on that looney, but he didn't go back himself.
Kitchen Nightmares is my favourite show of all time! Abby is truly one of the most iconic subjects of the series of all time. I'd love to see you do a vid on the new seasons Cullinary Gangster! What an episode!
Abi is delusional. She seems to think everything is everyone else’s fault, all she needs to do is accept the food is crap. I wanted him to put Abi in the kitchen to see how tough it is, like he did in the episode at Peter’s.
I hardly ever subscribe on YT because I hate watching the fall off of my favourite content creators. This is probably my 1000th Cam vid and you've never left me in anything other than a fit of giggles. You now have a subscriber in me ❤ keep up the brilliant work and I hope this comment makes you smile 😊
"not even the green giant has that much" 💀💀 Abby rates her food a 10.. like hun, if it was a 10, worr Gordo wouldn't be there, lol. The second dish of the customers that we see... Is that supposed to be pizza? Because it looks like I could stick it to a door and use it as a doorknocker. There's something about Abby that I like.. I just don't know what 😅
I think she probably fired the head chef because he or she didn’t agree with what Abby was doing. Or how she was running the kitchen so Abby just sacked them
Finally, a youtuber that actually interacts iwth their community without it needing to be for a video. GORDON RAMSAY YELLS WAY TOO MUCH, HE IS NOT A GOOD IDOL, but he is very kind to his family, so don't worry, they are safe.
i once saw something about food bloggers, and it was that if you go into a restaurant and get out a little notebook (or clipboard if you're feeling fancy) and take notes and photos of the food, they will see that you are a blogger or reviewer and hopefully get your food out faster... i have never tried it but i really want to after watching this
@@Jordan-db2oghahaha yes my dad says the same !! he used to work in hotels in london as a chef and he literally said exactly that 😭 fair enough tbh id be doing that
Me, I'm certified to be a chef. However, I purposely never worked as one a day in my life (beyond during my classes). I hated every second I had to serve anyone for anything beyond the rare moments I wanna cook for friends. It's just not worth the stress, so now I work very happily in security.
To be fair, most people would trust a tv show blogger over a RUclipsr. The people who refuse to accept that RUclips is a proper career, just tell them your a tv show blogger
Cam your teeth are lovely, its quite cute having one in front. Youre a good looking man and dont let anyone tell you different ❤ also love the accent, im from Belfast N.I so British too but Geordie accents are gorg to me

Don't apologise for having a break you deserve it 😌 love this channel
You are my favourite tv show blogger ❤
When are you going on @TheUselessHotline please please please
no worries
Have you seen the episode where the owner of a restaurant takes take waiters tips
“She doesn’t need Hello Fresh, she needs BetterHelp!” Good one Cam 😭💀
Thanks 😭
14:46
It's not like betterHelp can help...like at all
@@scarlet5122 From what I heard, betterhelp isn't even secure, apparently they sell your data and shit
@@CamKirkhamI don’t think anything can help her to be honest

Wow. It didn’t even make the whole 2010s decade 😂😂😂 Geez

Rico is the only thing I cared about. I’m so glad he’s okay lol
Cam: She doesn't need Gordan Ramsey, she needs a therapist.
Gordon: You need a therapist.
Also Cam: Gordon's going over the top 😂😂
I'm so impressed by how generous and understanding you are here about Abby, giving her the benefit of the doubt and showing her empathy. This is an AMAZING quality of yours that I admire, because I usually can't muster it the way you so easily do.
"Award winning meatloaf" it looks like the chef took a poo on the plate
It looks like a 1950s TV dinner
🤣🤣🤣🤣
DAMN LMAO THAT COLD /pos
Cam said "Hello, you beautiful PEOPLE" instead of DONUT. And now I'm having an existential crisis
Most chefs have a reliance on energy drinks, smoking/vaping and an unethical amount of alcohol after the shift to relax yourself (from past experience, it helps you chill after stressful shifts)
Yeah I'm a chef ATM, luckily I'd use exercise and nutrition but it happens all the time 😞
Haha yep, I'd be downing 6+ 500mls energy drinks a day. Most of my coworkers did harder Dr+gs.
Cam the reason I love your videos is you can roast someone but you’re also really compassionate about mental health ❤ Non-toxic king right here 👑
kitchen nightmares + cam kirkhams has to be the best combo 😂
I’ll take that

😂😂😂😂😂
Well deserved 😂😂
We need more kitchen nightmares, not sure if you've ever reacted to Amy's bakery episode but she's 8 kind of insane and so is her husband
I haven’t seen that one, could it as a video?
@@CamKirkham 100% it could be a video it one of the most iconic episodes.
@@CamKirkham yes trust, banger video idea!!
@@CamKirkhamAmy’s bakery is the only one Gordon gave up on
If cam does the video now I want a shout-out 😂😂😂
I’m not going to lie, I genuinely think Cam is my fav TV show blogger 🙌🏼
Haha love it
Yeh he's mine too
Please do the episode with Amy's baking company. That one is absolute gold.
Corker!!!
The one time he gave up.
Haha that's so funny I'm here after watching the Amy's baking Co. video 😅
12:32 "This man would literally show up to the last dinner and tell Jesus his bread was stale"
There IS three P’s in “Pepper” but they had 4
I don't know what it is but any time something super stressful happens, I wind up binging Kitchen Nightmares. And now my favourite TV show blogger is on the case? Chef's kiss
9:45 Always baffled me, like did you, the OWNER not agree to have him co0me and help :S he's there for a reason lmao
"My restaurant is failing, I'm going bankrupted, the customers hate my food, the staff hate me, I had to resort to hiring one of the best 5-star chef's in the world to save my restaurant. But how would I rate my business from 1 to 10? 10, obviously!" X0
This show got me through lockdown thank you for the trip down memory lane cam ❤️
Hope you enjoy 🙌🏻❤️
The owners saying their food is perfect is like the hotel owners on The Hotel Inspectors who can't see issues with their failing hotels.
OMG I FORGOT ABOUT THAT SHOW
It would be awesome to see Cam react to The Hotel Inspector.
“I fire my customers” that’s a new one lmao wtf
19:54 it truly is difficult to admit that not only have you failed, but that *_you're_* the reason why you failed, it's a hard, but necessary lesson to learn in life. It's necessary for our happiness
kitchen nightmares is elite reality tv
So good
apparently the restaurant is closed now! still, according to google, abby is doing well and actually works as a personal trainer!
A personal trainer makes so much more sense for her 😭
I genuinely think that the producers or someone swaps the food around in the refrigerator downstairs because she was like “it wasn’t like that before you came”
I’ve read they don’t as Gordon is completely against producer influence. He refuses to let them get involved in Hell’s Kitchen too.

A year on and Cam is still my favourite TV show blogger 💜
Cam you are not only my fav tv blogger but also my fav RUclipsr
I love Kitchen Nightmares! I was thinking of rewatching and I think this is a sign!

Cam is absolutely my favourite TV show blogger! His live blogging and tweets are a staple in my life 🙏🏻
Only discovered your channel today. Love your humour and energy. You are now one subscriber closer to that 300K. Good luck!
Abi is delusional. She seems to think everything is everyone else’s fault, all she needs to do is accept the food is crap. I wanted him to put Abi in the kitchen to see how tough it is, like he did in the episode at Peter’s.
This episode, and the one you did on Amy's Baking Company really holds a mirror up to therapy issues. 😂 it actually helps a lot.
the peppper thing got me🤣🤣🤣🤣
Cam's little rant about a head chef had me like "no clue, my dad dropped out of culinary school and still became a head chef at one point."
I just have to say... you are are absolutely hilarious and insightful!!!! Keep it up!!!
8:27 was so wholesome for no reason

A handstand game!!! Just when I thought I couldn’t love you more. That’s so cute 😂
I love how gordon turns into a sweetheart when with his loved ones ❤ yet is off it on tv 😂
"not even the green giant has that much" 💀💀
Abby rates her food a 10.. like hun, if it was a 10, worr Gordo wouldn't be there, lol.
The second dish of the customers that we see... Is that supposed to be pizza? Because it looks like I could stick it to a door and use it as a doorknocker.
There's something about Abby that I like.. I just don't know what 😅
Love ur reviews just found ya! New sub keep up the great work 🎉
"10, what, out of 100, maybe" Damn the sun went away with all that shade being thrown
I think she probably fired the head chef because he or she didn’t agree with what Abby was doing. Or how she was running the kitchen so Abby just sacked them
