This reminds me of the episode of SpongeBob where this guy took over the krusty krab and started serving sludge out of machines that looked like the krabby patty on the outside but once you took a bite it was all grey. But no one noticed and thought they were eating regular krabby patty’s until someone pointed it out.
Martin was living the good life. Getting a nice paycheck, hiring good looking vulnerable young women and using them for his pleasure. Eating and drinking for free and really living the great life. Gordon really saved this restaurant but will they follow through with his advise and training?
Gordon once again showing that he isn't afraid to get his hands dirty. Literally sticking his hands in the dirtiest crevices with roaches inches from his hands.

@@FDJUwe Not what occurred here. Hate to do Indian and Middle Eastern people here like this but many of them would rather bring their cousin who know zero English to work a register,restaurant,hotel counter etc. Because A they are cheaper and B they'd much rather pay someone they know instead of some random American. I work for a guy from Yemen. And he flat out told us if it weren't for the city we lived in being so old school (I grew up in the south so i don't think I really need to explain) that he'd have just hired his brother to work the place 16 hours a day. But my boss love making stuffy white people happy so he hired me and a buddy of mine because we quote "look like someone the local people can trust". Don't get me wrong the guy got thrown in the deep end by his boss for sure. But in his bosses case he also didn't ask the guy to not learn English or anything about America once he moved here.
The chefs also looked like poorly coded NPCs, especially the clueless one in the working hour (probably forgot to be coded in the first place) like... do these people have certificate, or even license to cook with that poor kitchen condition and the vile ingredients. Did they know what had they been doing the whole time and what mistakes they kept repeating, have they ever stood up for themselves with the worst manager ever like Martin?
I agree and the girl that was speaking out for him is letting her personal feelings get in the way; that's the problem with running a business, Gordon called out Martin for being a weird (c'mon that hair thing from Nasreen was completely inappropriate at the work place) and incompetent "manager". They worked and fed people food from a kitchen that was full of cockroaches, rats, and god knows what else. I'm surprised any customer didn't sue the hell out of them. They should feel like crap for what they are serving people.
@@ca2082 I was surprised when the other girl jumped up to defend that useless Martin.... then saw them dancing together on the bus, he was most definitely having a thing going on with her lol
This dude was given a pair of scissors and told to do brain surgery. When the operations manager is also one of the cooks, you’ve really fucked up the restaurant.
Which was one was the operations manager exactly? . . PS it's a joke. It was the bald guy.. Martin was the GM, Khan the floor manager and Andrew was the cook/Operations manager.. the one who also ensured that there was toilet paper to wipe butts.
Even the owner and the other manager seemed like they were trying to pitch in. They may not have known how to do that properly, but it's more than a lot of people featured on this show do.
@@anthonymendez1997 I mean it depends on the restraunt but yea. I just say that cause some restraunts are super small so the kitchen lead also does alot of other things
In all the years that I've repaired equipment in kitchens, I've only seen one place as clean as Gordon's. The guy put wheels on everything and twice a day they roll everything out the back door to be cleaned. The whole kitchen is tiled and has floor drains so it can be washed down. The only kitchen I was ever able to lay down on the floor when working on the equipment. Immaculate
@@fhuber7507 Doing floors twice a day would be impossible for a lot of places, and disassembling a restaurant twice a day is impossible for places that don't close between lunch and dinner.
@@andrewg254 I am a baker with over 20 experience in the trade, the floors should be swept constantly, mopped twice a day if busy, everything that can be moved should be moved and cleaned under. All handles should and frequently touched surfaces wiped down as often as possible. All open food in fridges or in containers should be dated, all stock should be constantly rotated (removed from the fridge and the new stuff put behind the old), if you can't keep these standards then you should not be open end of story. I have told business owners to their faces that they have no right to be operating a food establishment because their standards are too low, just because you can cook at home does not mean you know what it takes to serve food to the public. I have honestly gone to the health inspector to complain about my own place of employment and then told my bosses I have done so.
rule number one of ANY business owner is to WALK YOUR ENTIRE property before opening and after closing. It amazes me how many owners do not do that, you don't have to be a Chef to know what rotten food and dirty is.
@@AwesomestGreatestMostestFunny what are you even talking about. I think you watched too much kitchen nightmares, now u think u got the same knowledge as gordon ramsay lol. Worked in many restaurants, owner or manager doesn't have to walk the entire building every open and close.
I did work in one restaurant where the _building complex_ had a roach infestation and it didn't matter how clean we kept the place there would always be bugs. Didn't work there very long.
Martin is an opportunistic predator. He preys on the low self esteem of the waitresses and the lack of restauranteur experience of the owner (that he realized he could easily make his own personal benefactor). He desperately wants to be in a position of power and have the clout that comes with it, but expects to be able to swindle his way to the top. Anyone with their wits about them, is Martin's worst nightmare. They will be seen by him as a direct threat to his charade/hustle. What a slimy little weasel. I hope he is Wildly unsuccessful.
Do you think these types of people consciously act like that or they’re just wired that way? I can’t comprehend how someone can be such an asshole and not feel bad
The restaurant closed in 2009, apparently mixed reviews on the decor, and food being either average or overpriced. It's now a bar and comedy club. Martin tried to sue Gordon for $3 million, claiming the episode ruined him and also asked for the episode to not be broadcasted. Since it did however, you can guess he lost the lawsuit. Everyone is doing different things these days; Vikas now is working at the Junoon Restaurant and has made 30 cookbooks, Andrew is now a blogger, Huff Post Writer and writes cook books with Vikas. Martin was said to be managing a car service company after the show.
Vikash Khanna is a chef with quite the celebrity status here in India. In fact he's one of the judges in Masterchef India. Kinda glad Andrew got in league with him. He (Andrew) seemed like a cool guy.
The place closed down in 2009 (2 years after the episode was filmed). Martin was said to be managing a car service company and tried to sue Gordon over $ 3 Million because he ruined his carreer lol
Not gonna lie im glad its closed, I cant trust the owners or people who work there to still keep standards after Gordon left.....That kitchen was the most disgusting ive ever seen. I've worked in mid town Manhattan as well I know some rats and roaches are inevitable but they were infested and had no problem looking people in the face and charging them for that rotten shit food I could never trust the owners after that.
@@Princess-nt9tk the owner didint know what was going on, and the other good manager had to much going on. He was either cooking, helping the chefs, or fixing everything.
that assisting chef (Vikas) is the sweetest: "I'm not going to say anything negative about this restuarant, but I don't understand this restaurant". What a sweet man
He is one of the most down to earth chefs I have seen, he honours his humble beginnings every way he can. He has written 40 books, both fiction and non fiction, does a lot of charity, and has directed a lot of features as well with some of the best actors in the country. We, here in India are so proud and happy for him. And he judges Masterchef India, so he at this point is a household name.
The thing I really loved about this episode was that Gordon actually helped a restaurant that is just a couple of minutes away from his own.. like people no matter how rich and famous they are, usually would not help their neighbors grow so they wouldn't be a threat or a competition to their business.
Tbh I doubt it will be real competition for Gordon. Not sure what the restaurant was he had nearby but all I'm seeing is a Fish and Chips shop, so no competition there
I did work in one restaurant where the _building complex_ had a roach infestation and it didn't matter how clean we kept the place there would always be bugs. Didn't work there very long.
For the people who don't know who Vikas Khanna is, he is one of the finest Michelin-starred chefs based in India and has even judged Masterchef India and Australia. The episode is very old and he has progressed a lot.
@@zanesmith666 my man I don't think you have watched the whole episode and you jumped directly to comments for some bites. Stop being delusional I'm not taking about the chef with glasses on, vikas is the one who was called by gordon to change the whole menu and prepare new dishes. @23:39 for the refrence
Regardless of Martin his incompetence, Gordon was out of line and only demoralized Martin just before the new opening and the woman actually did good by sticking up for him. Imagine being so far up Gordon his crack to defend such behavior.
Andrew Blackmore (the operations manager in this episode) went on to become a frequent business partner with Vikas Khanna, probably because of this episode. If that isn't the definition of a success story, I don't know what is.
There is always one normal person in these situations and episodes and it makes me so happy to know that they farewell in life and find the job that they truly deserve and are worthy of❤
Love him or hate him. Chef Gordon Ramsay knows his shit, and he was able to get Martin to leave. Khan has what it takes to be GM, and he showed that to Gordon. Gordon found the weak link, snapped it, and replaced with anew. Mad props
Exactly. Sometimes I'll say to myself "these people don't deserve gordons help" because its clear they'll go back to their ways once he leaves. 60% of the restraunts featured on Kitchen Nightmares have since been closed down and around 30% was within the same year the episode aired
Id be that person who reports my own workplace to the health authorities and if that didn't work I'd right reviews about the food tasting weird and getting sick. Like ... Of they won't listen then your business is going down
IS PURNIMA STILL OPEN? Purnima closed in 2009, two years after the Purnima Kitchen Nightmares episode aired. The Yelp reviews were mixed after the makeover and there were complainants about overpriced food and a noisy environment. The old Purnima New York City location is now occupied by a place called Dillon’s Comedy Club. So it appears that the Dillons name will live on, even though the restaurant is gone. I’m not sure why Purnima closed. Mohammad was having issues with a neighboring tenant allegedly causing damage to the Purnima property, but I’m not sure whether or not that played any role in the closure. It could’ve been just do to business/money. After Gordon’s help and the rebranding from Dillons to Purnima, the restaurant seemed to be doing well. Gordon visited the restaurant one year later, and everything was running smoothly. Vikas is still there, and customers are even invited back into the kitchen to see how clean it is. The Purnima Gordon Ramsay revisit happened in Season 2 Episode 1.
You know Gordon went back to his place and made sure it had a deep clean just to be sure the cooties from this place 2 blocks away didn't get in. Martin bluffed his way into this job. He thinks a GM is supposed to just walk around, talk to customers and look busy.
Well we all know that kitchen nightmares is a double edged sword. If you succeed it is brilliant marketing but otherwise it's a scarlet letter on your reputation
@@monkev1199 well if your restaurant is doomed once its on the show it substantially raises its value for sale immediately afterwards, so you have a chance to bail
@@gregscrabshack2307 He tried to sue for defamation. But in order for defamation suit to continue, it must have the element of falsehood. Most likely it wasn't even allowed as a suit as it didn't have merit
Gordon nailed it when he said that Martin was taking the owner for a ride. He clearly didn't belong in that industry on any level; let alone as a general manager. He was just coasting and cashing the checks.
27:54 - I have NEVER seen Gordon go tête-à-tête with ANY member of the wait staff; so when Jenna tried to defend an obviously deplorable grifter, not fulfilling his role as staff (let alone General Manager), just wow... Usually it's the wait staff that can see Gordon's vision since they're the life-blood for customer relation, and Gordon knows this. Just, I'm speechless.
I remember seeing this episode years ago thinking how dare they have attitudes when they are caught malingering, serving out of a dirty, roach-rat infested kitchen. And watching it again I’m STILL shocked at the audacity
Legit. I feel like the only people I understand are the chefs and I don't even know their language. Imagine how beat down you'd be working for these maniacs. I, too, would have given up centuries ago Imagine needing help cleaning up, having to find a translator to ask for help, and then going out and finding your manager getting sleazy with waitresses and then trying to ask him for help pot washing, only to have him tell you he's too good for it. Already three steps only to get the brush off. Over and over and over and over How many times could you do that before you just throw in the towel. I've had a few jobs like that where no one listened and after a while it gets to be like... Just showing up is the hardest part. Anything you can't control you just wall off and pretend it's not happening. Because you literally have no voice
It's actually really crazy how often in my life I've watched one poisonous person destroy whole networks of people around them. In a similar manner, it's wild how often I've watched one person who was hustling hard to be fair and balanced hold literal threads of nothing together and make them functional. I guess the spirit of the people show up in the world they live in. Rotten people become rotten food. Taking a time out to hear someone when they need hearing becomes places and spaces. Kindness is smaller and simpler and seems to do less tbh. Which is rough. But idk. Maybe it does more than you can see
I honestly felt bad for the owner of this one. The guy had no idea how to run a restraunt and it was his dream. Hired people to make that happen and everyone took advantage of the poor guy.
Martin was having the time of his life. Sleeping all day...sleeping with waitresses...eating free meals. Edit: They did not have to do the guy eating the tomato like that lmao
Imagine defending Martin as a GM. "You're hard on him and it's making me mad". Yeah, well he should do SOMETHING that qualifies him in any way as a manager. Instead he prances around with his huge ego intimidating customers, getting his head rubbed while he lays down at a table, and texts on his cellphone sometimes not even inside the place. So glad Gordon told her to sit tf down.
I’m sitting here @12:30pm, eating my homemade pasta (which Gordon wouldn’t be pleased with)… just chilling. I don’t lose my appetite easily, but I sat my bowl down and shook my head at the deep freezer-roach family scene. I’ll be damned. 🤦🏾♀️🙃
Holy shit...that wasn't just a roach or two....that was a full on infestation with babies and everything. That was absolutely disgusting I'm literally itching all over from just watching that...barf
To the commenters scared about eating out due to shows like this, just look at your food before you eat it. Gordon does a great job of pointing out what looks terrible, and he does it in his cooking shows too like Hell's Kitchen. Just watch what he says about how food should look. You don't need to put it in your mouth if the tomato is grey and covered in flies, but that is a really obvious one. Raw meat is a pretty common one he points out too, so you can pick that up from his shows. Just saying, information is the best weapon.
@@milkyshakes While this is true, the same can happen from cooking at home. Also in most cases, these 3 things will not kill you. The most deadly is bacteria, but if it has been cooked, the worst of it has been killed. If it hasn't been cooked, well back to my original comment. Will you still get food poisoning every now and then? Sure. People are dirty. But this happens at home too, unless you obsessively clean. I don't think fear of a slight stomach ache and an hour on the toilet should turn you into a hermit that never leaves their home. There are far more dangerous things in the world, and we risk them every day.
I always check my food. Always. Even if its a cheeseburger I pull it apart and go through the layers. I usually go with sauce packets as well cause they can use sauce to cover up nastiness. I'll put my own sauce on tyvm.
Rather was a villain to give up his job there, Gordon is a much experienced idealistic, patience & angry combination of creator for restaurants perhaps 😬
Gordon might be rough but he doesn't play when it comes to cleanliness and food preparation. I had never seen his kitchen before but I knew it had to be immaculate.
This is definitely a contender for saddest excuse for a restaurant Gordon has ever visited. There were so many shocking things that stuff which would get focused on for several minutes in other episodes only got a few seconds here. The confused menu, the funeral home decor, the complete lack of customers, the meat in a vegetarian dish, the wrong meat in the meat dish, the week-old potatoes, the guy who cooked the salmon saying "not with pleasure" in front of Gordon when told to eat it, the old lamb mistake, the cooking on the floor, the food coming back during dinner service, the mystery sauce which the chef couldnt identify, the bucket of moldy chicken, the shitton of rat droppings, AND THE WORST FUCKING COCKROACH INFESTATION EVER!! I want to feel bad for the owner cause he wasnt in denial and was ready to accept any changes Gordon proposed, but at the same time I cant give him enough leeway for being clueless to excuse him letting things get so bad.
I'd like to think that the owner had another business to keep his restaurant running. that's why he hired three managers to run the restaurant but unfortunately, one of them was a parasite
@@HolyRamanRajya In the bigger cities, health inspectors are spread pretty thin. So if it's a place that barely gets customers, they might intentionally overlook it, because there's nobody to get sick anyway. Also, they're clearly too broke to pay the inevitable fines.
19:35 the fact that he’s yelling so loud in the background while the man is doing the walk of shame to the customers has me so weak that my stomach hurts 😂😂😂😂
"from green burgers.. to f'ing furry cucumber to f'ing rancid potatoes!!".. had me in stitches it was like a comedy sketch show going on in the background 😂😂
It was great. Those two girls were laughing about it then that manager comes out saying Ramsay shut their kitchen down and they're like "Oh no..." Haha! As if they're surprised
This is the only owner of a restaurant who didn't fought back or giving excuses to Ramsey. He accept his own flaws and his mistakes. Because of his soft nature Martin took advantage of him and I'm glad to see that Gordon kicked the GM out.
That Brit has no business being a GM in any business. I was a GM for over 20 yrs overseeing a 23 man crew in a production collision shop. I was hired to oversee every aspect of the business, hire, fire, train, fill in where needed etc. A GM should know how much dust is in the corner. This GM was definitely riding the owner for an easy paycheck.
It’s also why the workers like him, because he lets them do whatever they want and be lazy. I’m a business owner, someone like him wouldn’t last a week in any of my establishments.
@@blackicex1622 You hit the nail on the head of why he is loved. He didnt care, so nobody else had to Easy pay check. Everybody wanted to insult the women for defending him, talking like they have no agency, but everybody was allowed to walk all over that owner. Andrew was the only one in the whole staff who seemed to care halfway (though surely demotivated because nobody else cared) I was honestly sad he was beat on so much by Ramsey when it was clear he was the only one trying to make things work and putting in the extra effort.
33:12 ... You can hear the hurt in his voice. The love he has for his craft, and the reverberation of a failed mission where he gave it everything he had.... And the odds were stacked. He hadn't faced a challenge that brought him to tears in years.
There are Martins in every industry. I work with one that has an AVP title, makes $150k and doesn't know how to attach a file to an email. Every time I look at him, I think of the analysts I could hire for his salary and silently curse his existence
I can’t believe they (the managers, employees) would allow anyone to eat here after seeing all those roaches , rat droppings, flies and whatever else . I wouldn’t be able with a clear conscience let people eat there if I seen any of that stuff.
These people are unbelievable that's an absolute. But how the hell did this kitchen ever pass a health inspection? The inspectors are just as much to blame. They should most definitely be fired.
“Maybe Gordons’s standards are higher compared to mine.” *looks at flies, cockroaches, rats and rotten food in the background* No man, your general manager is just shit
I can't stand it when people call Gordon a jerk, a**hole, or mean person. He is highly passionate about what he does and doesn't tolerate people cooking bs and calling it food & using things that could get people sick. I respect him
Honestly considering what Gordon saw in that kitchen I'd say more then anything he kept his cool because if I was in his shoes and saw all that I would of just started swinging, like how dare you serve food like that
At the restaurant I managed for several years, we just always expected the health department to pop in at any time,therefore we always prepped for it. I never saw a bug or mice in 17 years there. Unbelievable that this place hasn’t been shut down. This isn’t just a month of no cleaning, it’s at least several months. The health department here is pure shite. They’re supposed to come at least every two to three months. It makes me wonder how many people got sick from this place. Appalling.
Imagine sitting at a table about to eat food, knowing Gordon Ramsey has been around yelling, then camera crew come up to you and intently film you eating it as if it's a scoop. I'd stop eating so fast...
I’m just trying to figure out how the health department hasn’t shut that restaurant down before Gordon even got there. I can’t imagine that kind of filth happened overnight which begs the question, when was their last health inspection?

I wasn't sure about the attitude and quality of the chef until he BEAR HUGGED Gordon after being shown how to make better dishes. That made me smile!
Had him in there until he said “get him the fuck off now” 😂 that was both wholesome and hilarious hahahaha
Absolutely. They hire these poor immigrants because they are cheap, but sometimes unqualified. Then people blame them for not doing the job well.
Such a great moment
@@FDJUwe Not what occurred here. Hate to do Indian and Middle Eastern people here like this but many of them would rather bring their cousin who know zero English to work a register,restaurant,hotel counter etc. Because A they are cheaper and B they'd much rather pay someone they know instead of some random American. I work for a guy from Yemen. And he flat out told us if it weren't for the city we lived in being so old school (I grew up in the south so i don't think I really need to explain) that he'd have just hired his brother to work the place 16 hours a day. But my boss love making stuffy white people happy so he hired me and a buddy of mine because we quote "look like someone the local people can trust". Don't get me wrong the guy got thrown in the deep end by his boss for sure. But in his bosses case he also didn't ask the guy to not learn English or anything about America once he moved here.

But the more pressing matter - are you defending Martin?
*Martin was HANDS DOWN one of the most incompetent human beings I’ve ever witnessed. Literally a real life NPC.*
The chefs also looked like poorly coded NPCs, especially the clueless one in the working hour (probably forgot to be coded in the first place) like... do these people have certificate, or even license to cook with that poor kitchen condition and the vile ingredients. Did they know what had they been doing the whole time and what mistakes they kept repeating, have they ever stood up for themselves with the worst manager ever like Martin?
I agree and the girl that was speaking out for him is letting her personal feelings get in the way; that's the problem with running a business, Gordon called out Martin for being a weird (c'mon that hair thing from Nasreen was completely inappropriate at the work place) and incompetent "manager". They worked and fed people food from a kitchen that was full of cockroaches, rats, and god knows what else. I'm surprised any customer didn't sue the hell out of them. They should feel like crap for what they are serving people.
@@ca2082 I was surprised when the other girl jumped up to defend that useless Martin.... then saw them dancing together on the bus, he was most definitely having a thing going on with her lol
true
@@noyoucantnoicantnowecantsostop lol I had the same thought.
I’m almost 100% certain that Martin and that waitress were fooling around because why tf else would you defend that pathetic man

He’s sketchy af regardless
Yeah has to right? And I'm like how is that even happening? The guy is such a f-ing loser.
how close they were always to each other too.
deffo something going on between them!
As someone who’s worked in nyc restaurants, she’s absolutely sleeping with him
I love how Gordon so easily spots the narcissists. You can't ask them for accountability though, they'll never take it
Gordon himself is a big narcissist also. These are all shows scripted according to producer's vision, not Gordon's.
I feel bad for the Operations Manager, at least he was honest and was giving it a good try. He knew what was wrong but it fell upon deaf ears.
This dude was given a pair of scissors and told to do brain surgery. When the operations manager is also one of the cooks, you’ve really fucked up the restaurant.
Which was one was the operations manager exactly?
.
.
PS it's a joke. It was the bald guy.. Martin was the GM, Khan the floor manager and Andrew was the cook/Operations manager.. the one who also ensured that there was toilet paper to wipe butts.
Even the owner and the other manager seemed like they were trying to pitch in. They may not have known how to do that properly, but it's more than a lot of people featured on this show do.
@@anthonymendez1997 I mean it depends on the restraunt but yea. I just say that cause some restraunts are super small so the kitchen lead also does alot of other things
@@anthonymendez1997 it’s bad when you have a restaurant with more managers than chefs
In all the years that I've repaired equipment in kitchens, I've only seen one place as clean as Gordon's. The guy put wheels on everything and twice a day they roll everything out the back door to be cleaned. The whole kitchen is tiled and has floor drains so it can be washed down. The only kitchen I was ever able to lay down on the floor when working on the equipment. Immaculate
That should be the minimum standard for restaurant cleanliness.
And Gordon would agree.
@@fhuber7507 Doing floors twice a day would be impossible for a lot of places, and disassembling a restaurant twice a day is impossible for places that don't close between lunch and dinner.
@@andrewg254 I am a baker with over 20 experience in the trade, the floors should be swept constantly, mopped twice a day if busy, everything that can be moved should be moved and cleaned under. All handles should and frequently touched surfaces wiped down as often as possible. All open food in fridges or in containers should be dated, all stock should be constantly rotated (removed from the fridge and the new stuff put behind the old), if you can't keep these standards then you should not be open end of story.
I have told business owners to their faces that they have no right to be operating a food establishment because their standards are too low, just because you can cook at home does not mean you know what it takes to serve food to the public. I have honestly gone to the health inspector to complain about my own place of employment and then told my bosses I have done so.
@@nigelrhodes4330 Very cool, thank you for sharing👍
That's an awesome idea
I'm not sure if I'm gonna be more impressed by Gordon's ability as a chef or his ability to stick his finger to about anything
He's the best Gordon Ramsay 💪💪💪 he is STRAIGHT up bby
I know right? I would never be able to do that, I also suck at cooking lol
Flies, cockroaches, rat droppings and Ramsay dressed like a "ghostbuster"......this episodes got it all.
rule number one of ANY business owner is to WALK YOUR ENTIRE property before opening and after closing. It amazes me how many owners do not do that, you don't have to be a Chef to know what rotten food and dirty is.
I think if you catch a Rat, ask them to cook it, it’s fresher then anything else they have.. FFs
@OB1 omg man ur so funny ur so edgy holy crap i wanna be like u one day SHUT UP MAN, NOBODY BLOODY ASKED
@@AwesomestGreatestMostestFunny what are you even talking about. I think you watched too much kitchen nightmares, now u think u got the same knowledge as gordon ramsay lol. Worked in many restaurants, owner or manager doesn't have to walk the entire building every open and close.
I did work in one restaurant where the _building complex_ had a roach infestation and it didn't matter how clean we kept the place there would always be bugs. Didn't work there very long.
Martin is an opportunistic predator. He preys on the low self esteem of the waitresses and the lack of restauranteur experience of the owner (that he realized he could easily make his own personal benefactor).
He desperately wants to be in a position of power and have the clout that comes with it, but expects to be able to swindle his way to the top.
Anyone with their wits about them, is Martin's worst nightmare. They will be seen by him as a direct threat to his charade/hustle.
What a slimy little weasel. I hope he is Wildly unsuccessful.
He’s unsuccessful, he lost a lawsuit and the restaurant closed in 2009 because of him
Yea I'm glad Gordon called him out on it he doesnt deserve that position
Well said!!!
Do you think these types of people consciously act like that or they’re just wired that way?
I can’t comprehend how someone can be such an asshole and not feel bad
I think everybody in the restaurant industry has worked with or encountered at least one Martin
The restaurant closed in 2009, apparently mixed reviews on the decor, and food being either average or overpriced. It's now a bar and comedy club. Martin tried to sue Gordon for $3 million, claiming the episode ruined him and also asked for the episode to not be broadcasted. Since it did however, you can guess he lost the lawsuit. Everyone is doing different things these days; Vikas now is working at the Junoon Restaurant and has made 30 cookbooks, Andrew is now a blogger, Huff Post Writer and writes cook books with Vikas. Martin was said to be managing a car service company after the show.
im surprised martin is still being allowed to manage something
Vikash Khanna is a chef with quite the celebrity status here in India. In fact he's one of the judges in Masterchef India. Kinda glad Andrew got in league with him. He (Andrew) seemed like a cool guy.
Vikas khanna is such a legend now in the Indian culinary scene and actually junoon belongs to him
Omg that's honestly super sweet that Andrew works with Vikas sometimes?????
@@Ninkira yeah they became friends afaik
The place closed down in 2009 (2 years after the episode was filmed). Martin was said to be managing a car service company and tried to sue Gordon over $ 3 Million because he ruined his carreer lol
Not gonna lie im glad its closed, I cant trust the owners or people who work there to still keep standards after Gordon left.....That kitchen was the most disgusting ive ever seen. I've worked in mid town Manhattan as well I know some rats and roaches are inevitable but they were infested and had no problem looking people in the face and charging them for that rotten shit food I could never trust the owners after that.
Thanks mate
Martin ruined his own career. Unless Ramsay ruined is bludger hair caressing career.
@@Princess-nt9tk the owner didint know what was going on, and the other good manager had to much going on. He was either cooking, helping the chefs, or fixing everything.
😆 his business was already bad 😆
36:15 lmao I love how Gordon says the manager manipulates the owner and then immediately the manager comes to do just that.
Whilst also claiming he doesn’t
So ironic it's unintentionally peak comedy
Grabbed on like a wicked witch! You see those finger and that grip😱
I loved it when Gordon whispered in his ear “you’re guilty”. He’s such an asshole and I love him for it. 😂
Just like any manipulator will do
it truly is a miracle Gordon hasn't died from filming these episodes lol
Imagine watching the episode and realize you were the guy that was served that gnarly ass tomato 😫😫🤢
that assisting chef (Vikas) is the sweetest: "I'm not going to say anything negative about this restuarant, but I don't understand this restaurant". What a sweet man
Dude is cooking the orders, his cooking gets cold before it's served. Ofc he can't understand that lol.
He grew even more and has judged several MasterChef india seasons
He is one of the most down to earth chefs I have seen, he honours his humble beginnings every way he can. He has written 40 books, both fiction and non fiction, does a lot of charity, and has directed a lot of features as well with some of the best actors in the country. We, here in India are so proud and happy for him. And he judges Masterchef India, so he at this point is a household name.
The thing I really loved about this episode was that Gordon actually helped a restaurant that is just a couple of minutes away from his own.. like people no matter how rich and famous they are, usually would not help their neighbors grow so they wouldn't be a threat or a competition to their business.
Tbh I doubt it will be real competition for Gordon. Not sure what the restaurant was he had nearby but all I'm seeing is a Fish and Chips shop, so no competition there
They are not competing in the same market
True.. but still it's something to be respected
New York is such a huge market that it literally has no impact. The fast food restaurants in New York probably carry a huge weight of sales anyway
He must’ve invested a lot of money into it so he could at least be a stakeholder
“The kitchen’s not clean.”
Understatement of the century...
I don’t feel sorry for any of these people that open restaurants and have zero clue about the business. They deserve the mess they created
I did work in one restaurant where the _building complex_ had a roach infestation and it didn't matter how clean we kept the place there would always be bugs. Didn't work there very long.
More like….”The kitchen is so dirty makes the Wuhan wet markets look immaculate.”

@@dominus6224 okay Martin
the bravery of gordon to touch all that stuff with his bare hands
Martin is the worst manager I've ever seen in hospitality.
He is like an entitled little child with no clue what's going on.
Andrew Blackmore (the operations manager in this episode) went on to become a frequent business partner with Vikas Khanna, probably because of this episode. If that isn't the definition of a success story, I don't know what is.
I thought he was a pilot or sum
Good. Because he was the only one who seemed to have even a hint of competence
I just read about that and came to the comments to see if anyone mentioned it! Good for both of them!
There is always one normal person in these situations and episodes and it makes me so happy to know that they farewell in life and find the job that they truly deserve and are worthy of❤
He was good and had a brain
Love him or hate him. Chef Gordon Ramsay knows his shit, and he was able to get Martin to leave. Khan has what it takes to be GM, and he showed that to Gordon. Gordon found the weak link, snapped it, and replaced with anew. Mad props
Imagine owning a restaurant, working there every day, and not thinking "man, I should solve literally any of these problems" lmao
Exactly. Sometimes I'll say to myself "these people don't deserve gordons help" because its clear they'll go back to their ways once he leaves. 60% of the restraunts featured on Kitchen Nightmares have since been closed down and around 30% was within the same year the episode aired
Id be that person who reports my own workplace to the health authorities and if that didn't work I'd right reviews about the food tasting weird and getting sick. Like ... Of they won't listen then your business is going down
It's so obvious the waitress and Martin had an intimate relationship
It’s always the 4 lore and on the 10 hen. So sad
I'm not sure if its a romantic one though. It could very much be that he is her boss and using that power over her.
even the bangladeshi waitress. who tf comforts their bosses like that.
Stroking his???? Hair?
He must be packing
IS PURNIMA STILL OPEN?
Purnima closed in 2009, two years after the Purnima Kitchen Nightmares episode aired.
The Yelp reviews were mixed after the makeover and there were complainants about overpriced food and a noisy environment.
The old Purnima New York City location is now occupied by a place called Dillon’s Comedy Club. So it appears that the Dillons name will live on, even though the restaurant is gone.
I’m not sure why Purnima closed.
Mohammad was having issues with a neighboring tenant allegedly causing damage to the Purnima property, but I’m not sure whether or not that played any role in the closure.
It could’ve been just do to business/money.
After Gordon’s help and the rebranding from Dillons to Purnima, the restaurant seemed to be doing well. Gordon visited the restaurant one year later, and everything was running smoothly. Vikas is still there, and customers are even invited back into the kitchen to see how clean it is. The Purnima Gordon Ramsay revisit happened in Season 2 Episode 1.
You know Gordon went back to his place and made sure it had a deep clean just to be sure the cooties from this place 2 blocks away didn't get in. Martin bluffed his way into this job. He thinks a GM is supposed to just walk around, talk to customers and look busy.
"I made a mistake and served you old lamb"... My first question is: Why the F is there even old lamb around?!? If it's old, get rid of it!!!

My fav part of the episode.
I just realized where I picked up the expression f me! 🤣🤣🤣

Nrml bangladeshi 😂
Gordon nailed it when he said that Martin was taking the owner for a ride. He clearly didn't belong in that industry on any level; let alone as a general manager. He was just coasting and cashing the checks.
27:54 - I have NEVER seen Gordon go tête-à-tête with ANY member of the wait staff; so when Jenna tried to defend an obviously deplorable grifter, not fulfilling his role as staff (let alone General Manager), just wow... Usually it's the wait staff that can see Gordon's vision since they're the life-blood for customer relation, and Gordon knows this. Just, I'm speechless.
It’s what happens with victims of grooming and abuse
Some of the waitresses seemed to have a bad case of Stockholm syndrome. Martin was General manager, so they probably relied on him for their jobs.
She probably was sleeping with him
@@erichall090909 the waitress was literally grooming Martin's hair
what language is that does it mean face to face
I remember seeing this episode years ago thinking how dare they have attitudes when they are caught malingering, serving out of a dirty, roach-rat infested kitchen. And watching it again I’m STILL shocked at the audacity
Legit. I feel like the only people I understand are the chefs and I don't even know their language. Imagine how beat down you'd be working for these maniacs. I, too, would have given up centuries ago
Imagine needing help cleaning up, having to find a translator to ask for help, and then going out and finding your manager getting sleazy with waitresses and then trying to ask him for help pot washing, only to have him tell you he's too good for it. Already three steps only to get the brush off. Over and over and over and over
How many times could you do that before you just throw in the towel.
I've had a few jobs like that where no one listened and after a while it gets to be like... Just showing up is the hardest part. Anything you can't control you just wall off and pretend it's not happening. Because you literally have no voice
It's actually really crazy how often in my life I've watched one poisonous person destroy whole networks of people around them. In a similar manner, it's wild how often I've watched one person who was hustling hard to be fair and balanced hold literal threads of nothing together and make them functional. I guess the spirit of the people show up in the world they live in. Rotten people become rotten food. Taking a time out to hear someone when they need hearing becomes places and spaces.
Kindness is smaller and simpler and seems to do less tbh. Which is rough. But idk. Maybe it does more than you can see
It's absolutely disgusting I couldn't beleive it
I honestly felt bad for the owner of this one. The guy had no idea how to run a restraunt and it was his dream. Hired people to make that happen and everyone took advantage of the poor guy.
What happened to Mr. Mohammed btw?
Martin was having the time of his life. Sleeping all day...sleeping with waitresses...eating free meals.
Edit: They did not have to do the guy eating the tomato like that lmao

Instead he prances around with his huge ego intimidating customers, getting his head rubbed while he lays down at a table, and texts on his cellphone sometimes not even inside the place.

“Tell him in a really nice way, your food is shit.” Gordon can be unintentionally funny 😂
I’m sitting here @12:30pm, eating my homemade pasta (which Gordon wouldn’t be pleased with)… just chilling. I don’t lose my appetite easily, but I sat my bowl down and shook my head at the deep freezer-roach family scene. I’ll be damned. 🤦🏾♀️🙃
Holy shit...that wasn't just a roach or two....that was a full on infestation with babies and everything. That was absolutely disgusting I'm literally itching all over from just watching that...barf
Where you see one, there are a hundred more nearby. This is new York so where you see one, there's really a thousand.
Absolutely foul. Roaches and flies are a sign of FILTH. And any surface the touch becomes more bacteria ridden. Disgusting
Bruh I’m Bangladeshi and I’m high key embarrassed by these clowns 😂🤣
To the commenters scared about eating out due to shows like this, just look at your food before you eat it. Gordon does a great job of pointing out what looks terrible, and he does it in his cooking shows too like Hell's Kitchen. Just watch what he says about how food should look. You don't need to put it in your mouth if the tomato is grey and covered in flies, but that is a really obvious one. Raw meat is a pretty common one he points out too, so you can pick that up from his shows. Just saying, information is the best weapon.
Im really glad someone said this
Spot on man, my “standards” are much higher nowadays thanks to Gordon
Um so, even if you look at the food, bacteria and droppings and debris can be cooked in without you noticing
@@milkyshakes While this is true, the same can happen from cooking at home. Also in most cases, these 3 things will not kill you. The most deadly is bacteria, but if it has been cooked, the worst of it has been killed. If it hasn't been cooked, well back to my original comment.
Will you still get food poisoning every now and then? Sure. People are dirty. But this happens at home too, unless you obsessively clean. I don't think fear of a slight stomach ache and an hour on the toilet should turn you into a hermit that never leaves their home. There are far more dangerous things in the world, and we risk them every day.
I always check my food. Always. Even if its a cheeseburger I pull it apart and go through the layers. I usually go with sauce packets as well cause they can use sauce to cover up nastiness. I'll put my own sauce on tyvm.
The way Gordon went hand on with the roaches was bad ass! He’s not scared of anything!
Pulling his hand tru molding food makes me more puke then him touching the roaches.

Gordon might be rough but he doesn't play when it comes to cleanliness and food preparation. I had never seen his kitchen before but I knew it had to be immaculate.
The fact you never see a “LOOK HOW GORDAN RAMSEYS OWN KITCHEN LOOKS *NIGHTMARE*” video means you know his restaurants are clean.

‘’Thank god I got the littler f**ker to eat instead’ I was dying. Ramsay gotta be the funniest man alive. He’s very real
This is definitely a contender for saddest excuse for a restaurant Gordon has ever visited. There were so many shocking things that stuff which would get focused on for several minutes in other episodes only got a few seconds here. The confused menu, the funeral home decor, the complete lack of customers, the meat in a vegetarian dish, the wrong meat in the meat dish, the week-old potatoes, the guy who cooked the salmon saying "not with pleasure" in front of Gordon when told to eat it, the old lamb mistake, the cooking on the floor, the food coming back during dinner service, the mystery sauce which the chef couldnt identify, the bucket of moldy chicken, the shitton of rat droppings, AND THE WORST FUCKING COCKROACH INFESTATION EVER!!
I want to feel bad for the owner cause he wasnt in denial and was ready to accept any changes Gordon proposed, but at the same time I cant give him enough leeway for being clueless to excuse him letting things get so bad.
I'd like to think that the owner had another business to keep his restaurant running. that's why he hired three managers to run the restaurant but unfortunately, one of them was a parasite

"tell him.. in a really nice way.. YOUR FOOD IS SHIT!!!" Vintage Ramsay right there
That Brit has no business being a GM in any business. I was a GM for over 20 yrs overseeing a 23 man crew in a production collision shop. I was hired to oversee every aspect of the business, hire, fire, train, fill in where needed etc. A GM should know how much dust is in the corner. This GM was definitely riding the owner for an easy paycheck.
It’s also why the workers like him, because he lets them do whatever they want and be lazy. I’m a business owner, someone like him wouldn’t last a week in any of my establishments.
@@blackicex1622 You hit the nail on the head of why he is loved. He didnt care, so nobody else had to Easy pay check. Everybody wanted to insult the women for defending him, talking like they have no agency, but everybody was allowed to walk all over that owner. Andrew was the only one in the whole staff who seemed to care halfway (though surely demotivated because nobody else cared)
I was honestly sad he was beat on so much by Ramsey when it was clear he was the only one trying to make things work and putting in the extra effort.
Lol I miss this show. That one waitress standing up for Martin bs and not thinking Gordon would shut her shit down lol. Classic.
33:12 ... You can hear the hurt in his voice. The love he has for his craft, and the reverberation of a failed mission where he gave it everything he had.... And the odds were stacked. He hadn't faced a challenge that brought him to tears in years.

He cried inside I’m sure he did. He’s such a humble and wildly successful chef but he sounded dead defeated. Poor thing!!!
I think Gordon eats before he looks at the kitchen just so he can yell “I’ve eaten here” later 😂😂
Imagine driving/walking down the street and you see Gordon dressed like a ghost buster walking down the street 🤣 I would die laughing
The Bengali chef bear hugging Gordon at 23:18 never fails to crack me up no matter how many times I have seen this episode
and then Gordon says "tell him it's just scallops, we haven't lost our children" 😂😂😂
Yeah very true
I’ve worked for many Martins in the restaurant business. It was infuriating that those type of people became managers
There are Martins in every industry. I work with one that has an AVP title, makes $150k and doesn't know how to attach a file to an email. Every time I look at him, I think of the analysts I could hire for his salary and silently curse his existence
@@a697ag lol...can't attach a file to an email wowwww. It's always the worst ones that get paid and there's always someone at the top defending them.
I've never heard such a a true statement about someones attitude; "taking advantage of a weak rich man".
This could be the funniest kitchen nightmares I've ever watched, pure comedy 😂
For me it's Sebastian's, hands down.
Personally this is the most disgusting I’ve seen
It’s really not funny because somebody could’ve died eating the shit they served at that restaurant.
@@maryland1807 For me it's La Galleria 33. Oh and obviously Amy's Baking Company.
The hug killed me mate
I've watched a lot of these, I don't scare easily. This one genuinely had me queasy. How he didn't walk out after going downstairs I do not know.
I can’t believe they (the managers, employees) would allow anyone to eat here after seeing all those roaches , rat droppings, flies and whatever else . I wouldn’t be able with a clear conscience let people eat there if I seen any of that stuff.
It amazes me how many owners do not walk their entire business, you don't have to be a Chef to know what rotten food and filthy dirty is.
Not everyone has a heart in this world
Ask a kitchen equipment repairman what most kitchen's look like you'll be surprised.
These people are unbelievable that's an absolute. But how the hell did this kitchen ever pass a health inspection? The inspectors are just as much to blame. They should most definitely be fired.
There aren’t enough inspectors to inspect every single restaurant in nyc. That department is als it criminally underfunded and understaffed.
"my experience with chief garden was wonderful" 39:40
“Maybe Gordons’s standards are higher compared to mine.”
*looks at flies, cockroaches, rats and rotten food in the background*
No man, your general manager is just shit
I don’t care what changes they made I’d never eat in a place that allowed such disgusting conditions in their kitchen.
Did I hear Gordon say go with the script @37:28
🤣
I can't stand it when people call Gordon a jerk, a**hole, or mean person. He is highly passionate about what he does and doesn't tolerate people cooking bs and calling it food & using things that could get people sick. I respect him
I agree with you 💯...
Honestly considering what Gordon saw in that kitchen I'd say more then anything he kept his cool because if I was in his shoes and saw all that I would of just started swinging, like how dare you serve food like that
I agree, you can get someone very sick serving that trash.
33:25 whackis? Viiiikassss lmao
Wtf....where's the health department food restaurant inspections......seriously. wtf. It's a bio hazard.
this might be a dumb question, but are food departments regularly active in such a big city as new york?
At the restaurant I managed for several years, we just always expected the health department to pop in at any time,therefore we always prepped for it. I never saw a bug or mice in 17 years there. Unbelievable that this place hasn’t been shut down. This isn’t just a month of no cleaning, it’s at least several months. The health department here is pure shite. They’re supposed to come at least every two to three months. It makes me wonder how many people got sick from this place. Appalling.
@@mariobros4448 That’s a good question. I’d be interested to know.
18:10 "IT's ROTTTEEEEEN"
Gordon is a born leader and so passiinate abiut people and food. Love this guy
Imagine sitting at a table about to eat food, knowing Gordon Ramsey has been around yelling, then camera crew come up to you and intently film you eating it as if it's a scoop.
I'd stop eating so fast...
If I saw Gordon at the restaurant with the camera crew I’d instantly leave because chances are he’s not there because the restaurant is doing great.
I’m just trying to figure out how the health department hasn’t shut that restaurant down before Gordon even got there. I can’t imagine that kind of filth happened overnight which begs the question, when was their last health inspection?
Some money probably changed hands.
Its racist to say an indian place is dirty.
