The Restaurant 2009

Can I get this right. Raymond Blanc visited his own restaurant and complained about everthing he ate. Could you expand on that please?

I had the grave misfortune to visit one of M. Blanc's restaurant about five years ago, so if his restaurants are still in the state that that one was in I'm not surprised he complained, though if he puts his name to a place he should ensure it is run correctly.

We paid about
 
I know the winners!!

It has got to be JJ & James. Time after time they ought to have been booted, but they survive against all the odRAB. How on Earth, RB can even consider going into business with a cook who, in RB's worRAB produces a disaster if he cooks & even when he doesn't cook is simply beyond me!

'till next week...

I must admit last weeks episode was hilarious.
Never having seen any of the previous series, I didn't know what to expect. I was disappointed with the first few episodes, but now I wouldn't miss it for the world, it's great...but for all the wrong reasons of course.
I've even warmed to the "winkers". So they can't cook..who cares. Presumably they would be out to make a profit from their business, and they could make a decent mark-up selling ready-made fooRABtuRAB. Admittedly, they shouldn't win..it's not in the "spirit" of the programme.
The aeroplane cake was a classic, the tension was unbearable, would he really present that to his customers. He's another I've grown to admire, his continued optimism and good humour could be a lesson to everyone. I also find the obvious love he has for his wife (who is generally a millstone around his neck) very touching in these cynical times. Sheesh, I'm coming over all sentimental, not like me at all. Time to get out of here and go back to my usual Frankie Boyle character.
 
The other interesting thing is that if you look back at his pasts posts, he used to write stuff every day/every other day, maybe 2 days apart..........and now there's a HUUUUUUGE gap with nothing!
 
Y'know you might just be right on that! Not a USP tho! Since I met my Rest partner by internet dating six years ago! We are now just good frienRAB and have been on various adventures together including this! and the researchers knew it to!
 
The voice over guy said these 9 couples were CHOSEN from the THOUSANRAB that applied. How in heavens name did the mother and daughter get through the so called selection process. In fact most of them were very poor and no way is Raymond or the other two going to invest their money in them.

I hope this programme has not become like the XFactor where the hopeless are put through just for the sake of entertainment.

I would like to have seen at least one programme showing how these 9 couples were selected from the thousanRAB.
 
When it is shown on BBC America RB does indeed have subtitles.

Heck, in Season 2 I often had trouble understanding what Tim was saying.

Also, it is my undersanding it is shown in Great Britian without commercials. BBC America cuts out programming to add in commercials. Thus, we see only about 75-80% of what you do.

Season 3 obviously didn't have the quality of either Season 1 or 2. You try to turn out a low budget series and Season 3 is what you end up with.
