      it wasn't what Brian said, it was HOW he said it. a comment made by lewtable explains it. You don't go up to your boss in the middle of service and speak to them in a demeaning manner, yes people side with the wait staff but even so disrespect like that doesn't fly and shouldn't fly to any owner, hell it's lucky the owner didn't just sack him like some would have for how Brian acted.

      I know he was frustrated and if I am a server, I would too if I can't do my job, but maybe just maybe if he worded it out a bit more passive (since we all know most old people tends to get stubborn and defensive) he would've gotten terry to listen for a bit.

      i liked Terry up until that point. but after that i just saw him as insecure and wanted his business to fail. because that’s what he deserves. failure. he won’t take anyone’s but gordon’s advice. and when terry told him what literally everyone watching this was thinking. that he needs to be fired. he went off on him. so Terry’s business should fail. for being an uptight insecure piece of shit that seems himself better than his “waiters” u can hear in his voice that he views himself as superior. disgusting man.

      While I do understand your point I do think Brian stepped out of line there, you don't just go to your boss and tell him he is "hiding" and then telling him to fire the chef right infront of the chef. I do understand Brian and I can relate to his frustration, but still he should've approached it in a diffrent manner and not telling his boss what to do. I'm sure none of you would accept your worker telling you what to do in that manner.
      I think Brian should've gone to Gordon with that because Gordon is the one Terry would listen to and that's what happened.

    The owners were clearly the problem here. They were lazy and unambitious. Terry, instead of firing Pinto(who should have already been fired) chose to disrespect his waiter. He did nothing at all. The restaurant desperately needed a general manager to get things organised and fast forwarded, but the owners were clearly dumb. Them being a good couple and sweet lovely grandparents has nothing to do with business. Business is ruthless and they need to learn that. No wonder the restaurant has closed.

    Pinto was clearly a bad chef, but the owners treatment of the server when he tried to warn him is unforgivable. Kudos to the Server who had the brains to see what the problem was, shame on the owner who treated him so terribly. I see the restaurant has closed, what goes around comes around. Learn to treat your staff with dignity.

    • @Lewtable
      @Lewtable 3 ปีที่แล้ว +265

      Approaching your boss in the middle of service in front of customers and other staff to criticize him and tell him what to do is rude af. I get that the waiter is the underdog in the industry so people naturally stand on their side of the argument but literally any person in a leadership role that intend to succeed would have and should act the same. He didn't dismiss the waiters opinion because he was "just a waiter" but because the way he went about it was de facto questioning his superior's right to lead. Right in the middle of a hectic service no less. As Gordon said himself, the owner had to be more assertive. And cowering to your staff when they act like that in front of other staff is conveying that you're a pushover.
      The waiter may have been right in his opinion, but that doesn't mean that he is right in the way he went about it. And in this case the waiter handled it extremely poorly. That owner didn't deserve to have his restaurant closed over something petty like that. Stop acting like it was vindication. Bit of a rant but people need to understand that no matter how friendly or kind your boss is; while you're on duty or at work, he is your boss first and friend second. If you disrespect him, he is not going to have any choice but to bare his fangs to you and make you understand your place. And there's nothing wrong with that because that is what it means to be a leader. Assertive and being the one to make the decisions. Had the owner tried to parley with the waiter at that point the chain of command would have been broken.
      Had the waiter approached him *after* service and he was still incredibly dismissive or devaluing the waiter's opinion due to his occupation, that would've been shitty. Not this though.

    • @tajmisquitta3536
      @tajmisquitta3536 3 ปีที่แล้ว +79

      @@Lewtable I completely agree. The way the waiter asserted himself wheather before or after service was still wrong. Saying it in a more factual way such as "sir we need you and you need to be available, and working with chef Pinto is proving difficult because I can't show my face to my customers/feel disgraceful facing my customers" would have been more appropriate. Though undoubtedly the waiter made a very valid point but called it as it is. The owner was also in the wrong because at the end of the day those words were very demeaning to a person (in his defense though he reacted on the same level). Making a person feel that their role in your business is insignificant to you is very bad for employee morale as it also simultaneously insulting the rest of the employees with the same role. The owner should have said instead "That is not a respectful way to talk to me and also this is my business and I'll fire whoever I please for my own reasons". Telling someone to "know their place" is just another way of telling someone "you are beneath me", and saying that is not ok with me.

    • @iamrandomsauce
      @iamrandomsauce 3 ปีที่แล้ว +45

      I agree that the server had the problem spot on. But the way he approached it, undermining the authority of his boss, was unacceptable, which is why the owner had to stand his ground, especially in the presence of another employee. The right approach was to seek this conversation in a 1-on-1 isolated situation, because otherwise he shows disrespect, and that would allow another employee like Pinto to completely dismiss the authority of the owner as well.

      An idea would have been to tell the boss what his problem is and that is that he felt like he had to start lying to the customers because he had nothing else since he couldn't do his job. He could have told him about his frustration and that he wanted to do a good job but he wasn't able because of the cirumstances. Instead he acted as if he was in Gordon's position and he even seemed to have copied his tone of voice. Not a smart move but understandable out of his frustration and the hope that something could have changed.

    What became of Cafe 36? During the filming of the episode, the Gilmers actually became friends with Ramsay, and they had a very successful beginning to 2009 because of the changes made based on his recommendations. They updated their decor, developed a more contemporary menu and added some local artwork. After the episode aired, chef Pinto was fired and replaced by Barney, who eventually left also to finish his studies. Pinto moved on to work for a family restaurant in the area. Cafe 36 closed in April of 2009. The Gilmers blamed the weak economy and Chef Ramsay’s interference, however, reviews still confirmed the truth behind the claims of poor food and service. Whether a victim of a poor economy or of Chef Ramsay’s tough love, Cafe 36 is now nothing but an abandoned, forsaken dream.

    honest opinion: it's a good thing that KN was discontinued. Albeit how Gordon Ramsay helped many restraunts most of them end up closed shortly after

    What Happened Next at Cafe 36?
    At the end of the show, we are told that Pinto was fired and Barney was offered the Head Chef job but he left to finish his culinary degree.
    He was replaced by Jorge Flores and Pinto was said to be working as a chef for a family in the area.
    Yelp reviews after filming were mixed, with some complaints about the food.
    Cafe 36 closed on 18 April 2009, blaming the economy and Gordon's changes to the restaurant.
    On a forum, "Barney" reported that Terry was previously an Executive Chef at a country club for more than 20 years but was made to look like he had little to no industry knowledge during the episode.
    He also revealed the personal reasons behind his fractured relationship with Pinto, comments Pinto had made about his wife and calling him as a "diner cook".

I don't know, I don't think I'd like for my staff to be so hostile towards each other. Truth be told, the way Terry responded was also impolite. He could've scorned him about his tone, but also said that his complaints have been noted.

    They may be a nice couple, but the owner was not a nice person. That one scene where he talks down to the earnest waiter is highly indicative of an insecure, small person. He is far more concerned about appearances, statuses, and titles. That he kept Pintos around and even defended him, despite so much criticism from the rest of the staff, just shows how much he doesn't respect his waiters, and I'm assuming it's because Pintos has a better paper pedigree. "You're a waiter; remember that." Seriously power-tripping.

    "Cafe 36 closed on 18 April 2009, blaming the economy and Gordon's changes to the restaurant. On a forum, "Barney" reported that Terry was previously an Executive Chef at a country club for more than 20 years but was made to look like he had little to no industry knowledge during the episode."

      I chuckle when I hear places that closed down blame Gordo

      It looked moreso like he just didn't have the spine to run a restaurant and was happy to let below-average performance persist. Able to talk back to a waiter but not his awful head chef.

      Shame that even he tried to pin it on Gordon. Place already had both feet in the grave before he got there. He did his best.

    The moment I heard that he wouldn't use "Fresh frozen" items if it was his restaurant, I would've fired Pinto there and then.

    The way he spoke to his waiter is inexcusable. The waiter was absolutely correct. "You're a waiter". Eff you dude. Being a waiter in a restaurant run by idiots is a damn hard job.

    Why many restaurants don't do well:
    1. Food
    2. Food
    3. Service
    4. Food
    If you can't get the most basic thing of a restaurant then you better close, it's the very purpose why people come there.
