Classy channel 4, have a video on jamie oliver crying over closing down his cooking business but, glady advertise cooking videos on the comments section.
@@Stretch7op while spending MILLIONS of other people's money.
He took a 5.2 million pound dividend from the chain weeks before its collapsed and then tried to blame it on brexit, guy is a fat self righteous wanker, hope the cunt actually does end up penniless, eating turkey twizzlers pot noodles.
He's a bad business man. His restaurant chains were criticised from the offset. But he continued. He believed the hype surrounding him.
They just weren’t good enough
Gordon Ramsey should do a kitchen nightmares episode where he shouts at Jamie Oliver and turns it round in 1 hour
Nah Ramsay has had ups and downs in his restaurants.
Daniel O'Connor LOL. Ramsay should just shout at Jamie Oliver until he cries and that’s the end 😎😂😜
good idea
Gordon has bankrupted wwwaaahyyyy more restaurants
@@Jppppppppppppppaapi86 you know when your reading comments and your laughing then boom! I read yours. You must be a right laugh in real life...
I feel sorry for him, but I brought my partner to one of his restauraunts and they charged 35 bucks for 3 thinly shaved pieces of beef on a layer of salad and called it a main meal. When the waiter asked if everything was alright, I was still hungry and the waiter asked if we'd like to order more. We'd already spent 80+ bucks. We both went elsewhere and got $10 Sushi that was more filling and satisfying. Jamie forgot portions and value for money over his brand name.
Bet the sushi tasted better than that shit lol
Yeah cuz jamie hate rice hhahaaha JK.
@@amanwhocareaboutfeels2591 it's true tho
@@som-hy2tb Yep, it was. Delicious and filling.
I didn't realise Jamie's Italian had restaurants in the US
I feel sorry for him but when a friend mine said “now he knows how I feel when they took Turkey Twizzlers away from school” I couldn’t hold it in 🤣
why are there so many bleeding hearts for him? thousands of people literally dying of starvation and dehydration in the 30 seconds it took my to write this comment and poor ol' Jamie is gonna have to figure out his next move with an estimated HALF A BILLION dollars in the bank. His legacy took a hit, nothing more. People becoming deeply, emotionally invested in the 0.1% is bizarre, He makes more in a 2 months than you, me or anyone else would make working every day for the next 30 years.
@@justmedee did you think about the people who work in those restaurants
His books were so good that people just cooked it at home 😂
Dear Jamie, keep it small. Maybe do one major restaurant and get it working well. Focus on that one and change from doing Italian because someone commented people can now make Italian at home largely due to your teaching how easy is it so they don’t go out for it and it became old style. Also we like you so people will support you next new venture but don’t get too spread out and dissipate your energy. I cooked you bake well tart from TH-cam this week and the family I shared it with said oh my Lord how good is that! Can I have the recipe. I said it’s given away free on YT and sent her the link. It’s not that you didn’t give anything away free. It’s not that you were greedy for money-you were greedy for expansion but you can’t get too big because it’s too hard to manage it.
Do you ordinary man can see what might’ve gone wrong or we can get it from all the comments people make.
I was blown away by how good that recipe was for the Bakewell tart and how quickly united -you are an extremely gifted chef. You’re like a chemist.
Just those touches of lemon rind in the fridge Japan and the pastry but lots of other things made it absolutely delicious and I was really trying to copy my mum who is English but she made hers just with coconut egg German pastry I don’t know where she got the recipe from - maybe more time?!
But with yours I put pecans and walnuts and might have left them in the mincer a bit too long because the friend Japan was quite a fine mixture and another time I would leave the nuts in bigger pieces maybe so the top looks nubbley. Anyway it was to die for and it was your ideas and skill!
I went to 15 in Melbourne before the fire and I really enjoyed my evening but I couldn’t see my food because that corner of the restaurant was dark- lol. Therefore it means that you need feedback avenues in your restaurant from customers places where they can make substantial comments that you can see each week. To help you stay anchored to changing demand and trend.
That doesn’t mean you are not good with trends andyou are excellent with trends-it’s one of your strong points.
I found two of your Jamie Oliver mugs in the opportunity shop the other day and bought them.
When they were available in woollies supermarket I bought 12.
I loved the design on them -waves.
I only had one left because a couple fell on the floor and I gave some away and there might be a few in a box somewhere.
I really liked them so when I saw to in the secondhand shop I bought them. So those mugs benefited the charity shop.
I don’t think it’s necessary to brand up and diversify into cooking pots unless you only do a few for your brand - don’t get too big just don’t get too big.
The bigger your palace the more reliable footmen and maintenance, budget, etc you need.
Keep it all in one area near where you live just in the towns around you and keep a very close eye on the busy-ness of it.
It doesn’t run itself- no.
Somebody else commented that you make woke more realistic comments. Now there is a new generation coming up and they comprise two different characters - the 25-year-olds obsessed with technology and want all their cooking to be perfect with no waste and hate doing dishes, and go out to eat a lot. But the next lot coming up are warriors... Thumberg types... watching other people’s ethics and vegan shoes... so I’m saying they are a mixed bunch of consumers.
Do you have to be ready for anything!!!!
Then Covid.
We know you care about the community and that is a huge selling point but your marketing people need to get it right...And make sure that the good things you do are closely linked with your main restaurant, your brand, your name, your locality, and our finite - not draining on the business. Managing things and keeping it finite, limited, smaller because you STILL have a rock solid viable current GEM of a brand. Take it seriously, think about your responsibility to keep it to a smaller size, don’t diversify wildly, follow your own gut instinct, only do what you know. You will ride again. And all the best brother. 🙋🏻♀️👩🏻🌾🧑🏻🍳🤗
@@rc1952 ain't nobody reading all that
@@rc1952 This is not essay test, kid. I think you've got in the wrong online class website.
@@rc1952 Dear Jamie? You think he'll see this?
Dear jamie, this is for the twizzlers
It's a shame but the food was very overpriced and very underwhelming
@Hms really? I didn't know that, if it's true thats really wrong, how do you know this?
CUSTOMER "Does Jamie ever come here himself".
WAITER "Yes, he's here today, do you want to meet him".
CUSTOMER "Er, yes, ok".
Out comes Jamie, spends 5 mins chatting to the customer who said yes. End of evening, additional £40 added to the bill.
That's a story I was told by my godfather, of an experience that happened to a friend of his. I don't know if it really happened as I wasnt there myself, but after I heard that story I made a vow never to enter one of Jamie Oliver's places, and I stuck to it.
@@pablohanc I think it's safe to say that never happened.
@@mubblemann why is it safe to say that? For that to be the case either my godfather, my godfathers friend, or myself must have made up the story. Why have you assumed that to be the case.
For the record, I'd have kicked off it 40 pound had been added to my bill, but apparently the bloke in question paid it.
@Hms you're labelling a lot of people as stupid if you mean all the British public. He has come up in conversation at work and the majority i know don't like him very much.
2 of my sons worked at his restaurant in grand central in Birmingham and they both lost jobs luckily they bounced back they loved working for him
Wow, glad to hear and for them thanks. I was expecting another gloom story seeing some of these toxic comments but nope, good!
good for them, glad for you
Ah man, this sucks. I know people have had their issues with him, but he's obviously such a good guy. Always been a fan. Hope he bounces back. Best of luck to him and his team.
How is he obviously such a good guy? From this staged video?
Kieran Garland This guy fucked Irn bru,I'm not happy about that still.
How it is obvious? By having his first venture be a training restaurant for kids in need. By trying to improve food quality in schools. By putting out vast amounts of free recipes and cooking techniques. By putting in 13 million Pounds of his own money into the failing corporation last year in an attempt to save it. People's characters are generally pretty obvious by their actions and their attitudes - just as yours is by your comment here. Good luck to you "BT" - you obviously need it.
Anyone using the word ''retard", is totally irrelevant! Your comment is worthless...
Rich T why you crying for you whiney little bitch? 😂
The rise of fast casual restaurants buried his restaurants, they were over priced and for the price of it value was not there one could.go simply somewhere else and get the same or better for 30% less
Agreed
This is tough. I’m crying because I can’t spend £20 for 1 small pot plant of skinny chips 🍟
Haiyaaaa...that is so sad... 😔😔😔
In retrospect, his restaurant chain collapsed in the perfect timing.
He's had a bit of luck there!
0h yea
Agreed!!! I don't think he would enjoy having food delivery services do the delivery of his food
Fr though. Gods Plan 😂
Feel sorry for the guy and his employees. Always seemed to me to be genuine and down to earth
He took 5 million few days before from the account
@@angrybrit7331 Lol yeah wouldn't feel that sorry when he took 5.2 million whilst he fucked over his own workers haha
Feel sorry for a guy who over prices himself like a fuckin snob then pays the price
He was let down by his own greed
Fuck Him!
Goddamned chili jam did him in
Haiyaaa
😂😂😂😂
The food was not up to snuff and it was overpriced - sold on the name. There was a restaurant in Singapore I went to and what I heard is people went once and not again.
@Agent J Sorry mate. That's flown way over my head.
@Agent J Learn how to make coherent points. If you want to talk to yourself there are plenty of mirrors around, if you want to converse then make an effort.
@Agent J You're a fucking idiot aren't you?
Agent J why are you
Trying to be smart to get a reaction ? You don’t sound intelligent you sound weird and quite frankly your posts are embarrassing
Agent J Yessss finally a bit of honesty instead of waffling absolute bollox. You come on here sounding like a right prat.
This is bollocks. Restaurants closed down, and he still walked away with hundreds of millions in the bank. He has a net worth of 3 hundred million.
Legacy, your passion and impact means much much more than any bank balance will ever give you
Say that to all the staff that lost there jobs in his restaurants
@@lukepwc1724haha bet it means much when you don't pay your employees severance
I have no clue about what happened. But to witness someone's life work and dedication end up being like this is really heartbreaking.
It wasn't very good work.
Maybe he should call Gordon Ramsey to come save his restaurants.
Not many restaurants that Gordon ‘saved’ on kitchen nightmares are still open.
Adam Quirke That’s because the owners were idiots
Matt G he chose to have his ego stoked by them
Adam Quirke All the owners came to him as a final resort, if they hadn’t they would’ve closed up anyway. The few that he saved is more than enough to call the show a success
Matt G how do you work that out? There must have been over a hundred restaurants we helped. How many are still open with the original owners now?
I'm glad to see the positive messages but so many toxic ones. I'll never understand people's joy at someone else's failure. His judgement is sometimes misplaced but this man has a good heart. He's not upset about the money. He obviously upset about the staff out of work and his avoidable errors. We're all human. Show a little compassion. I very much doubt he'll read these comments, but if you do, good luck to you and the family Jamie. You will bounce back and you will do more good in the world. Much love to you.
Well said 👏👏🎩
Yes that's true
Very true 👏
Perfectly put.
I would love your comment a hundred times if I could. Made me tear up a little
Menu was weird, food was crap and expensive and the service was appalling. Jamie, you're a lovely bloke and I wish you the best with your next venture.
Proof or you're waffling lemons
@@netweed09 proof lol tard
@@jayb6002 Just because you insist on being that turnip who believes everything in a comments box?
Whatever floats your boat, simpleton!
@netweed09 jamie can't cook, especially asian food
Broke down in tears but took a multi million pound payment for himself out the business weeks before its collapse.. my only sympathy is for his workers who barely got wages owed to them
.
Were they not the ones with jobs which they obviously worked into the ground. Got only themselves to blame from my point of view. Managed badly.
I wouldn't sympathise with the poorly paid plebs that sweated away making him rich...
It was their choice to join the modern slave trade...
And our choice to pay over the odds for tomorrows turd...
@@gpethst24 coming from you that never worked in his whole life. Stfu dude
This is what happens when you become too big, my advice. If you have one restaurant, run it well, and run it like it’s your own flesh and blood child. Over expanding quickly is usually a recipe(no pun intended) for disaster. Quality always takes a hit immediately when turning into a franchise, you lose control, and unless your putting out top quality while handling competition, people will simply go elsewhere.
I’d rather have one restaurant, and nothing else, I’d make it the best restaurant I could make it. I’d have to have control over everything to make sure what’s being put out and done is to the standard I hold it to, anything less than that isn’t worth it.
What restaurant is it you own?
sobbyhasselhoff
Why are you being deliberately provocative?
Go out and get yourself laid ffs.
He talks too much too... even while hes cooking... can't stand sometimes... tq
Well said, couldn't agree more!
This is very very good advise.
Have seen alot of small restaurants do very well for many years through good and bad economic times.
People plan trips to visit good restaurants and they even become the area's tourist attraction, helping other local biz.
I had food in Jamie’s Italian in Cardiff it was the first and last time I was in there
I met him at a school about seven years ago when he was trying to sort out the dire state of some school food. Seemed such a genuine person. I feel sorry for him and his staff. It's always a bloody shame when a business goes under, but I really think he tried. I do think he should have consolidated the successful restaurant chains long ago and tried to bring in other investment while it was still a going concern. IMHO, he tried to keep it going to help his staff across the other restaurants when perhaps he shouldn't. Unlike a lot of business owners I could name - at least he tried.
He's a Tory nonce
a genuine person? as opposed to what a phucking alien wearing a silicone mask? SHUT UP!
He will bounce back.
Jamie doesn't give a fuck about anyone but himself, the whole school initiative was to sell his name and get more of his cook books sold. He couldn't give a fuck if kids died. His business goes under and he empties the accounts the day before, again doesn't give a fuck.
@@Harihar_Patel looking at you vocabulary you don't care about your own impressions in others and I'd you're a sanctimonious and pompous in real life.
Jamie - if you read this - I got on your train when I began a garden - "Jamie at Home" and it inspired me. I own five of your cookbooks. Your optimism was the only inspiration I had. Now, take a year off this, travel a bit abroad and focus on your family. Take care and thank you.
wow. bankrupt chef should go traveling for a year, what a pity :-) it disgust me, really.
Jamie always been my favourite childhood chef. Watching his live shows get me excited
I went to Jamie's Italian in Sydney Australia
It was a nice experience but expensive, if he cooked it himself I'd pay it for the xfactor of having a celebrity chef cooking for me but he wasn't so in my opinion it was expensive and I have worked in hospitality for 16years.
I've been watching the Jamie's Kitchen series on repeat this weekend because I really enjoy it, and after googling to see where things are at and just finding this out now, ....man it's heartbreaking. I hope he is able to bounce back and get something positive going again.
Yeah, let's hope the richest chef the uk has ever produced who has never himself won a Star can recover.....Oh and the kids he was paying minimum wage who all got laid off but seriously please let's say a prayer for Saint Oliver of the too much lemon!!!
I went to the one in Westfield Stratford a few years ago. Food was horrible I couldn’t even finish it and it was something I had saved up for 😬 .
Wasn’t heaven on a plate, eh?
Went to one in guildford 10 years ago pile of shite
Gordon Ramsey had his restaurants close too at one point. It's human to fail.
But he never opened a generic chain restaurant where their only selling point is the owner’s name
I don't know who this Gordon Ramsey* is.
“Small portions for too much dough” is all I ever heard. Did we really need another Bella Pasta or Frankie And Benny’s? Shame, hate seeing anybody upset and mentally broken, I know the feeling. He’s got talent, he’ll bounce back
I like the way Davina McCall tryed to have a head shot on camera with a smile with Jamie who said there was a head plack for two students that had died!
The declining sales didn't happen over night, someone needs a better accountant.
Agree... if writing on the wall... accountants/auditors & managers per site reported to who? Even when closing down... why leave them in a disgusting state - this Jamie didn't do!
In this day best to consolidate & keep cosy & have right staff & chef..who don't let u down with no choice which then leaves the emphasis on the price.
Jamie a good guy who dreamt a big dream. Dreams if realised become responsibilities which need one's 100% attention all the time... one can never rely on the manager/ess... cos in the end YOU are the one held accountable.....
If he still has the energy after the dust settles..try & keep original site & make it matter. The Brits (all those people living in the UK - no exclusions nationality wise) should back you with your good old heart warmimg dishes using home grown veggies etc.,
GOOD LUCK REGARDLESS .... a great guy who inspired a British palate!!
Accountants do scream, shout and jump up and down but most of the time the owners of these companies don't listen. They know best. Then the accountant says I told you so.
They did really try. I was part of a focus group for the brand less than a year before it’s closure. They tried changing the feel and look of things and bringing more of the authentic jamie back. I was a student and still found it to be an affordable choice for a date night
most don't realize the world economy was in free fall before Covid in late 2019, the virus was the hoax used to cover up what was likely to happen, total economic collapse, so they had to lock everyone down so they could retool and try to re emerge, but it won't likely work, too much government and printed money cannot continue
@@andrefecteau I heard they're going to turn to cryptocurrency instead of paper.
I went to Jamies Italian in Liverpool a few years ago and was really disappointed. The food was very ordinary compared to many Italian restaurants I've eaten in and was overpriced.
Why it shut down then.
Food was absolute shit and I witnessed a bar man and waiting staff arguing in front of customers
Same story in Kent, I don’t think big chain places really fit anymore people expect more
Because jamie destroys Italian food and tries to reinvent
@@93hothead as an Italian I agree. I find the Japanese the only people to replicate Italian cuisine extremely well, all the rest of the world except Italians, have no clue.
Ive always liked Jamie Oliver, decent bloke with a passion for cooking and who inspires others. Hes like an everyman kinda guy
Have-a- Cigar the fact you replied probably means you’re a little sad man at home x
Mate he is a scumbag, everything he has done has been to line his own pockets.
He destroyed school dinners and now jumping on the bandwagon with making meals with the choronavirus!! Next it will be three minute meals whilst having a shite.
For those that do not fully understand, when you lose a company that you built up from the start, and to see if crumble, fall and then sadly dissolve..... it hurts! Hurts alot!
It ought to hurt in this case because it wasn't very good.
Jamie was the first chef I started to literally "eat" in my time. He was and still is an amazing hardworking and kind person. His approach and the love with which he cooks and what he has already done for gastronomy, how he inspired and what he has created still impresses and amazes me, I admire him very much, and even after all these years I love him very much…Definitely one that Britain can be proud of. ❤️ His family is proof of that.
Just run 1 in London and make it better
There is life outside London you know ! Not every damn thing revolves around that shithole.
@@oddities-whatnot unfortunately that's where you would get the most publicity
@@oddities-whatnot 😂👌
Feel sorry for him, he’s a good guy. Went to his restaurant in Liverpool and it was awful and so pricy
😂😂😂
he can fuck himself
He's not a good guy
I’ve been to his restaurant ONCE! I would never go again. Food was overpriced and very average and when you sat down there was no atmosphere or appeal.
No atmosphere? Create one.
Adam Quirke the restaurant was to big with not enough patrons
traveller4life123 and? If you need a restaurant to be full to have the effect of atmosphere then you’d do best to sticking to going to them around christmas.
Lol Why who pushed in your porridge? Making a carpet bombing of the comments section? Yeah people want different things, so why comment at all on here claiming his restaurants were ‘rubbish’?
Yeah, food isnt great for the price.
But the atmosphere was spot on i feel. Sad either way.
I just came to see him cry.
people saw through the shit they have been serving and stopped getting scammed.
Oh, I had no idea this was happening. Too bad and feel sorry for Jamie. He’s seems like such a good person.
Any failed business pains my heart.
So Many impacted.
The waitstaff, kitchen staff.
My
Compassion and respect.
Does he?
Did they just run out in the middle of service dirty pans and fryers wild
They probably knew it was their last shift so didnt see the point in cleaning more likely
Mate. Every time a celebrity dies are does something fucked etc. the world must know and feel sorry for them. Plenty of people around the world are doing tough and none of them put their hardship on TV. No tears from me.
should of done a meal deal.. chips, turkey twizzlers and a can of coke.😂😂
I went to one of his a few years ago thought it was overpriced and mediocre
A genuine guy who doesn't deserve the hate.
Good luck Jamie in what ever you turn your hands to, you have alot of kids a chance to make something of themselves when many wouldn't. That is admirable and something that many will remember.
I look forwards to watching you bounce back. Stay strong Tiger!!
I ate at his restaurant 10 years ago, I remember the food being awful, the bolognaise was peppery to the point that you couldn’t taste anything else. it’s a shame because i’ve always had a lot of respect for the guy
Been to one of his restraints a few years back. They served me raw pasta and has the audacity to say that’s how Italians like it lol
Leather restraint, kinky!
Uncle Roger brought me here 😂
I had to rewatch this due the tears in my eyes when the 2 student plaque scene brought emotions all of us can connect to. I have been off the grid for 3 years & had no idea of one of my fav Chefs career downfall. Of all "Fifteen" the hardest for me to see go cause of my 15 years I've watched Jamie grow. From California, Jamie I love you & screw the news. Cheers & God Bless to you & every single one of your students.
3:30 everybody's dancing in the moonlight
Needs to take Gordon Ramsey’s approach. He has had failed restaurant but always bounced back
It’s cause it was over priced with tiny portions 😂😂 lamb chops with 2 tiny lamb chops for 25£
That makes sense.
But did you get a huge side of scalloped potatoes?
Those are acceptable prices in London but he didn't have the quality or image/clientele to attract people willing to oay those and he way over extended himself the death of most chains. If you want charge huge prices for OK food you need to create a sense fo exclusivity
um t , but the majority of his restaurants were not in London. That’s not an acceptable price in Leeds. The portions were pathetically meagre, £4:50 for a side of 11 chips served in a tiny waste basket. The whole chain was a complete rip off.
other way round mate. the pound symbol goes in front of the number. 🤦🏽♀️ like this: £25
Restaurant business is so tough doing it over 33yrs it was good in the 80s and 90s but when the recession and financial crash came things went downhill the costs are too high to keep going
I eagerly went to the Italian that Jamie had opened in Taipei. After years of watching him on TV, but not having a chance to eat at his restaurant as I live in Taiwan, I was so pleased. However, the food was...pretty crap. The manager came over to us after the meal and asked how the food was. I politely told her it was very disappointing. She immediately said that wasn’t what other customers had said. I shrugged and left knowing that place wouldn’t last six months. I was wrong by a month...it closed in five. I still like Jamie, but he spread himself, or at least his reputation, too thin. Was that greed, over-confidence or just bad business? Probably a bit of all three.
Perhaps a bit of the 3, as he might have been made to believe things were going well. He said hes good at running a restaurant, not such a businessman. This reminds me of Cesar Milan who made millions, but lost most of it because he wasn't good with the business side of things. Ppl leeching off his rights which he was deliberately made unaware of, naughty lawyers and accountants..
Such a lovely, caring man. And what a shame. I can only imagine how heartbreaking it is to see your very first project disappear. So many memories for him.
The problem was that he spread his restaurants way too thin and not think about the rise of the take away mobile app businesses in recent year, yet along people's different tastes and budgets. Even with a volatile market for the restaurant business, Jamie should've think small for his restaurant business, but at least he might learn from other celebrities who failed as restaurateurs.
Jamie Murphy he also taught us how to make Italian at home...there was no need to go to his restaurants. I think if he had focused on more ethnic and esoteric cuisine without his branded name, and also a takeaway and catering only, then that could've overcome many changing and fickle tastes of the public. He could've also capitalised on the food truck revolution which would've significantly cut overhead costs
he had enough money to save the restaurants but instead made a whole workforce unemployed! thanks Jamie!
He also didn't give appropriate notice for staff and they had to sue him through their union to get their entitled pay.
Sorry but the crocodile tears don't work for me. He is worth a fortune and wouldn't pay his staff.
For any person to loose their dream is so sad. Bless Jamie.
Hez a fighter..fighting since he was young..he will survive this..let us pray for his speedy success
At least he still has his millions in the bank and his big house(s)! It's the staff you feel sorry for as they haven't been paid for months, he will no doubt be opening more restaurants soon though, might struggle to get good loyal staff though
When you turn your life into a brand there's always a bigger risk. Should have stuck to a few quality restaurants imo, but I'm no chef nor bussiness owner.
It's hard to make millions with few restaurants.
*POW* PunkOnWhiskey
He will be alright. Don't worry bout Jamie.
Over priced, tiny portions, not particularly good food. Was waiting for this from day 1.
He cares of the people working with him not only his business. God bless you Mr Oliver and family and your companions
I once got gnocchi from an airport branch for like 10 pound and it had a raised floor to hide the fact it had only 4 gnocchi in it. he would of approved this and that's disgraceful
"As of 2021, Jamie Oliver's net worth is roughly ." - Yeah, how sad for his poor staff huh.
For sure, but who put the money on the table at the beginning? Who take the risk? The staff or the boss?
@@FriendsAtParty not really that much of a risk when it was already on tv
Rip to those two students Amen ❤️✝️🙏
Should have had Turkey Twizzlers on the menu
I seriously don't understand why people dislike him seems like such a genuine nice fellow
My son wrote a essay recently on failure and how to overcome failure in life I wished I can send that to Jamie this is the time he needs to rise with might n mettle find his true character and shine like a true leader we want you back big way
(He thought he could flip it quick) I went to Jamie olivers restaurant it was a very poor experience. Waited over 50 minutes to be served. Food was cold, rude waiters.
He truly didn’t deserve this. It’s really heart breaking to watch.
A guy like Jamie will always bounce back. The money never mattered his energy and passion always shon through.
His wealth is over 100million. Jamie Italian was a corporate company that only defaulted staff and suppliers and landlords while going down. His fortune was left untouched and it was proven that accounts were cleared of dividents towards directors before administration took over. You are blinded by the public image. The closure of Jamie Italian was the most disgusting and selfish you could possibly imagine and he failed to follow any policies that he was supposedly promoting till he was forced to by law.
@@JS-bh3pz is this against him or for him?
When he was opening in Leeds he had a bunch of italians ready to work for him...but they didn't even start as Jamie Italian was offering the minimum wage! Also, after inconsistency between restaurants he had some sauces prepared in batches and delivered to the restaurant! ....no surprised he didn't last!
If he had opened a low budget one, it would have worked. The problem is many of these celebrity chefs believe their restaurants needs to be high end. Look at Greggs, it's working isn't it?
Just squeeze a gallon of lemon over, it'll be right.
MONTY just a touch of extra virgin olive oil to finish
Ser Davos Seaworth and parmesan never forget the Parmesan
And lots of Parsley too
I know this is mean but... its hard to feel sorry for him.
Always best to stick with one or two places where you can keep your hand in and make sure it's still your concept being delivered. Letting strangers trade on your name and reputation to sell mediocre meals to punters was always bound to blow up in your face. They even made a storyline of the old Lenny Henry sitcom "Chef!" about that very thing.
People always want more...
I opened one of the locations in Toronto. Management was terrible and the poorly run. It's a sad case but it is what it is
boy, that's tough to watch. Jamie had a restaurant in my country, near Kuta Beach. And i remembered travelling there, thinking that the price was too expensive, nearly 20 times higher than regular local meals in Bali. but you're a smart guy, jamie! i know you can through this👍.
You took our turkey twislers away from us, so we took your restaurants from you 😂
He still has his millions, it's the staff I care about. His business dissolved which means hes not.out of pocket. Not his personal debt
He is still rich...
Remember, he can still sell the restaurant brand and properties. He still worth at least $100 Million and has a lucrative TV show deal so yeah i agree. He should be the least person you should feel sorry for.
@@Commievn feel sorry for his staff, maybe he felt sorry for them too
Then he should have bailed the workers out with his money then considering he has a high net worth. Not the taxpayer. I don't think crocodile tears have much ethical value.
Should’ve been a fish and chip restaurant they never go out of business
Fish and chips shops work better as independent shops not chains.
It opened here in Australia. It was so over expensive so not worth the price.
I remember jamies italian. Tried perth and singapore branch. Both food are so-so, prices are quite high and the employees are relatively impolite for a restaurant this serious..
When you need a microphone to fire people, you're big
That’s how we felt when you banned chips and sugar from schools
@Robin Truby fantastic glad he’s lost everything if he’s on Instagram am bout to make him cry more
@@uknownm5994 good lad
I love Jamie Oliver. I feel he is a genuine person who I wanted to see succeed. It's a shame really. I feel for him.
Gordon Ramsay : Your restaurant needs nuggets ....
Always a fan of your Jamie🙌🏽
0:45 someone explain why there’s a stormtrooper in the background lmao
lmao
Brother sadly, and I’ll be the first to apologise for taking the mick about your restaurants in other videos, but listen mate u need to hear this. This was a wake up call on high end luxury dining. Not everyone is gonna eat there and most will be a one experience wonder. You need a change up to your audience that can keep a business profitable.
Very good advice👍
Very good advice 👍👍
If the food was as overpriced and boring as so many people are saying it was, then I'm sorry but this was inevitable. So many other places to get better and cheaper Italian food. Still, you can tell Jamie is a genuine caring guy and seeing someone like this really does hurt.
Much love and respect from Calgary Alberta Canada Jamie I’m so sorry bud
All them emotions you felt Jamie sad & upset..... that’s how you made me feel changing Turkey twizzerlers and school meals! Now we’re even 👍🏻
Jamie will have to sell one of his range rovers.
Payback for banning Turkey twizzlers mate.
That's what happens when you pretend to have fine dining restaurants that sell pre-packed salads and cold meats and charge £30...
there's a reason he never earned any stars
@@keroro2611 indeed
I ate once at his restaurant and I wouldn’t go back. Served tea in a latte glass lol
