6 Times Gordon Ramsay Actually Liked The Food On ‘Kitchen Nightmares’

To say Gordon Ramsay is a pretty critical guy when it comes to food, is an understatement of epic proportions. You don’t become a world-renowned chef with Michelin stars coming out of your butt without a palate for what tastes good.

In his show Kitchen Nightmares, chef Ramsay visits various failing restaurants to try and salvage the business with his expertise and knowhow. More often than not, Ramsay can’t stomach the dishes served to him.

However, there have been some rare occurrences where Ramsay actually enjoyed the meals of the restaurants he visits on the show.

Check out all the times Chef Ramsay surprised his hosts by cleaning out the plates put in front of him. The best part is seeing all these chefs and restaurant owners’ genuine feelings of joy on how well-received their signature dishes were by the man himself.

Now, excuse us while we binge Kitchen Nightmares for the millionth time now.
