What’s that? You’re suffering Gordon Ramsay withdrawals? How can that be, when we’ve barely had a week away from the cantankerous culinary maestro.
We went straight from ‘Hell’s Kitchen’ to ‘MasterChef’ to...’Hell’s Kitchen,’ which starts up again Wednesday night on Fox with 16 new victims -- er, contestants -- vying for a $250,000-a-year paycheck as a head chef at L.A. Market at the JW Marriott Hotel Los Angeles at L.A. Live.
As always, the show kicks off with a signature challenge -- the contestants make their signature dish -- and it takes a humiliating turn for one contestant. Keep the remote handy and watch for Ramsay actually throwing up -- not just spitting out -- what may rank as the worst dish in the show’s history.
Before it’s over, the ax will fall for two contestants, there will be sirens, a near wardrobe malfunction, Ramsay catches someone yawning, and one chef gets caught aping Ramsay.
Big mistake.
And we meet a new maitre’d. But of course, there is no replacing J.P.
In the meantime, if you really, truly are suffering a Ramsay withdrawal, check out this behind-the-scenes video of Ramsay horsing around with photographer Brian Bowen Smith.
