The Restaurant 2009

The best was to finish the series would have been for RB and the other two to declare that there is no winner. By declaring a winner RB has flushed his credibility down the toilet.
 
:confused: Surely this is "running a restaurant 101" and should have been covered in Episode 1?

Ah. but that might have made for a more polished performance and in the producers warped minRAB, a less car crash series.

Utter bol**ks. :mad:
 
Not watched for weeks cause I got so disenchanted by how ludicrous it was. I tune back in to find those stupid blondies and that aggravating woman still it????!!! Wow it actually gets worse lol
 
Did not take long for the first use of the 'j-word'. Why do those idiots think opening a packet of smoked salmon constitutes a signature dish. And if they want to buy 'gravadddlax' go to Waitrose or a specialist shop, not ASDA. Good to see a failed chocolate fondant on the horizon.
 
Its difficult to understand why the programme-makers would take such an obviously winning programme as The Restaurant was last year (surely the best of the 'reality' shows?) and wilfully destroy it as they have this year.

What a disappointment. And after showing such promise, previously.

Raymond Blanc would be well-advised to run a mile if offered another series.

Unless he has a 'jumped shark' recipe he wants to share with us? ...

JJ and James own a covent garden cocktail bar in west end of London
- Producer? Presenters? someone from programme drink there and think - what a great place - have a chat whilst peed to JJ and James - yeah I can let you be in our little programme......
or was it a lost bet?

Something V V V FISHHHHHHHHHHHYYYYYY IS GOING ON
as Queenie in Blackadder 2 might say
 
The narrator is one "Eva Pope", whom I've never heard of but a Significant Other tells me she's from Coronation Street and Waterloo Road. Well :rolleyes: she's no better than she should be: Delia, I can forgive for marmelising balsamic, but this professional actress also calls it "bass-all-mick", and Alresford (the Hampshire watercress region) becomes "ARLS-ford" :eek:

I know it's nothing to do with cooking, but it's yet another aspect of the BBC's lackadaisicalness (lackadaisicality?) and equal opportunities policy :mad: :mad: :mad:

Mouthwatering programme though :p
