Kitchen Nightmares

I'm watching too much T.V. ...

I'm addicted to Gordon Ramsey's Kitchen Nightmares...

To summarize, a restaurant is going out of business, and Gordon goes in and tries to turn it around.

It kills me every time.... The thing that is running the business into the ground is usually the thing that has to go....

Some eccentric piece of shit idea... which the owner thinks makes the business special, is usually what is driving business away..

I think what they don't understand is that eating is Utilitarian... You want good food for a good price.... Not a Prize Moose head above the bar.

But.... the failing business always tend to be to beholden to the..... Apricot Potato's... and the moose head over the bar..... if they could face the reality, they wouldn't need help.
