know how to do that after 28 years i'm still trying now i'm really seriously starting to understand what it's like behind the scenes in the kitchen you've got brian there and sam cooking fine but too far so they're doing good all of a sudden joe walks in marks his orders and then disappears but when he walks in they all send her attention and he talks them like dirt unfortunately that dirt's his son sad right that was tough we've got ourselves in a real horrible rut cooking in that kitchen because it's just slamming food i've never seen so much food go in a microwave in all my life it's like no one's striving to be better you tell me how you feel about the frozen food i hate it i'm embarrassed to say it's my food why don't you tell dad that you want to cook fresh dad i want to cook fresh

anything without him saying it's not done right it hurts i mean still to this day i'm almost 30 years old and that stupid hurts we've got our cards out on the table now i want to see the passion i want to see that little bit of flame relit the light's back on in the morning gordon wants to focus his attention on joe before the customer's coming let's have two minutes together not his battles with his son but his battle with a crippling disease how does it affect you that level of diabetes diabetes is the worst disease you can have i got pain in my legs every day and you have a uh proper medical insurance no i don't oh come on i don't okay we can't afford i had to cut it off you know i've been without insurance for you know since we opened this restaurant god's sake you know rest is the first thing you need you can't be here seven days a week i built this restaurant i've been putting in 70 hours a week i would like my son to run this restaurant that me kick back but sam doesn't

posted on how you're feeling yeah okay thank you chad thank you before gordon can turn around giuseppe's i want to turn up a notch he needs to test sam's abilities i want to cook off and reignite joe's passion both of you cook something unique anything you want the front of house staff i'm gonna taste they won't know who's cooked what but what they will know is which dish is the best because that dish tonight is going on as a special ready let's go chef ramsay said that we were going to have the cook-off i kind of just wanted to do something simple but bold and hopefully impress chef ramsay and impress my father on top of it everything hand bought freshly made pasta fresh lasagna fresh salmon asparagus double pork chops garlic basil blow me away okay i saw the salmon just caught out of the water maybe two hours ago i had to go for the salmon i love it i use taste santa cut pork chop and i sear some scallops with some pancetta with some italian sausage and provolone cheese okay let's go okay right two dishes first one's a broiled salmon with asparagus coated an egg finished with problem cheese and the salmon has been char broiled next to that we've got a pork chop stuffed served on cyber grilled potatoes and gratinated with provolone cheese take a taste and then pass it down yeah i was confident in my dish because i always cook with a little flavor a little flavor to it okay we're gonna start with uh mum out of both dishes which one would you choose as a special i would take the pork chop put it with the potatoes not the pasta with the asparagus so bitter both that's a fair answer diplomat okay brian out of both dishes which one would you choose the uh pork chop pork chop yes right darling which one would you choose definitely the pork chop and the mushrooms okay feed it with the pork chop tony out of both dishes which one would you choose um i would have to say there's salmon salmon okay dawn if i was just looking at the menu and hadn't tasted them i'd probably go with the salmon but after tasting it i'd go with a pork chop right well done well thank you yeah really well done sure i was a little disappointed i'm not gonna lie but at the same time i want him to be better than me because i need someone to look up to i need a mentor in my life my choice out of both those dishes they're both good enough to go on this menu tonight yes

individually to write a letter and before i go i want you to read the letter kathy to joe and sam i see that our lives and the way we exist and treat each other is not acceptable any longer we need real change before it's too late joe i don't want to be a widow please try to trust in sam you need to teach and support him you need to let him make mistakes you need to pull back sam my beautiful

all i want is to take this restaurant over and let you relax we is all we have and without each other we are nothing love your son sam amazing and now the man the reason why we're all here take your time to sam hi sam i am writing this few words to let you know that this last couple days you made me realize how important you are to me and i came to realize that you are ready i want you to take charge finally i am really proud to have a son like you p.s i never stop loving you and i'll be there for you no matter what happens love your dad you're an amazing family you've just forgotten it this is the closest i felt to my husband and my son in a really long time my father saying that he loves me and he's proud of me and he wants me to take over it's everything i always wanted it's my dream come true chef ramsay brought back the love that we had that we almost lost and i'll never forget that you are the american dream good night good night you30 miles north of detroit lies the township of macomb county home to giuseppe's its owners joe borgia and his wife kathy have owned several successful italian restaurants in the span of 25 years after retiring they decided to open giuseppe's with the dream of passing it down to their son sam i opened it with the expectations that we would put sam on his feet and joe and i could just go to florida or wherever but it just hasn't worked out that way sam basically said dad i'm going to step up to the plate i want to work day and night you and mom can come a little bit at a time but when they started working 20 hours a week to me it was like another empty promise you want to go get your son because every time we i try to explain he's got to walk away sam did you walk off the line no it's a nightmare for two reasons the lack of customers and the hell that goes out in the kitchen you're serving frozen salmon i mean no matter what you do you can boil it in grease no it's still gonna be talking about that's probably wrong you prove me wrong then i'm not supposed to have no input i'm not supposed to be able to change anything usually people roast them on the bar no that's the way you do it i'm just supposed to basically be a shadow and somebody that he can just say it's your fault okay dan whatever you say i'm brian i'm a truck driver but i chef here part time right here joe i've known joe for forever he's getting up there a little bit in years and he's just he's getting tired and i don't think that his son is stepping up to the plate you don't have to be back there i'm not i just kept pushing me too many hours they're not pushing you you're pushing you i'm a diabetic some days i don't feel like coming in some days i can't even roll out of bed but i have to be here that's my responsibility my sugar is low i'm up here okay i cooked that i got it my dad's house is not good by any standards and it's the most heartbreaking thing to see i just want my family to be healthy and happy everything else doesn't matter if anybody can help our family it would probably be chef for him i'm here to work with a family in a restaurant that's in crisis the kitchen's run by father in the sun and they're constantly at each other's throat and the mother's torn between them both she's actually here to pick me up wow we just kind of smile let's good that's a good sign i was excited and nervous but i knew once he was here everything was going to be fine nice to see my daddy and thank you so much for coming to put me up now the question's run by joe your husband my husband joe just happy and joe is the head chef and sansa sous chef exactly is sam taking over from joe or well that was the plan but it's not happening and i'm sure sam's a little disappointed he's 28 he must be ready for it now surely he's about the maturity of about a 23 year old right he's not ready and the russian's only going for two years yeah and i'm in debt big time i got my house in foreclosure i owe about a hundred fifty thousand dollars outside of that outside am i losing the house if i can sleep anywhere but the business that's everything i have and at my age i can't start over again how does um joe feel about this he's miserable inside damn if this place fails i don't even know if we'll be together anymore this is it this is it this is my little play hope you brought your magic wand excellent thank you you're welcome i think chef ramsay may be overwhelmed this time it's not just as simple as a menu change or firing somebody i think it's a little more complex and i think this is where you'll be okay great that palomino sauce sam i know you don't want to listen to me yeah i do exactly how you say it put way too much white wine on it and that's why you're getting the bearings you told me to put the white wine with joe overseeing the kitchen sam will be cooking a menu designed by his father for chef ramsay i think chef ramsay's gonna come in here order a few things and he's gonna say they're horrible welcome to the giuseppe's tutorial please allow my family and i to introduce you to the essence of italy the old world family recipes and cozy atmosphere this place has only been open for two years it looks like something from the 1970s hello hi hi john nice to meet you and you're one of the servers obviously i am one of the servers what would you recommend my dunny i would recommend the eggplant rollantini that's our house specialty okay great and um i'll start off with the potato skins and the optional salad okay and i'll keep hold of the menu because i'm uh i'm going to read on okay thank you so much you're welcome essence obviously my ass what do we get we need octopus salad yeah potato skins okay that's first and i'll guide you through when i saw chef ramsey ordered octopus salad every part of me wanted to say we're out of it can you please take the salad out of the window please but how would that look um octopus salad that was quick thank you my dog enjoy thank you jesus got the octopus like rubber excuse me jesus christ like a mouthful of hubble it should be done in a frying pan very slowly yeah i gotta dance let me get this potato skin is that normally that chewy that octopus i think it is i've heard people say that before would you be my guest just sometimes be your guest please very tough but i tasted it i'm like oh my gosh we serve this i mean basically that's what it was that's what it tasted like horrible octopus is chewy horrible and how are the potato skins the cheese is um hideous not good yeah would you like to try one no i don't i've had enough how are we doing guys octopuses that is chewy these are hideous too cheese is disgusting oh boy i always brag about how good my food is and i'm good my restaurant is and if they don't step up to the plate i am going to cook every individual dinner in this restaurant pretty much a little bit big clint rollantini thanks honey you're welcome thank you i i think it's too much wine i mean that's my personal thing is so much wine i you know i make a new one can't really identify any flavors because it's just absolutely piping hot almost like it's being nuked in the microwave for three minutes i can cook every dish that he had and i guarantee he's going to love every one of them one that's got only man and why aren't you back here why because maybe they should try you all see you know what's going on honestly sounds like there's a war going on it's incredible this many complaints in two years relax my ass two ears coming up family is one thing we're in the business family tensions boil over i want to be the best chef but i want you to be my father too joe deals with his deteriorating health you can't do it anymore man what's this sugar is low i'm fine diabetes is the worst disease you can have and i've been with that insurance since we opened this restaurant can gordon bring this family together is sam a good chef he's he he likes to cook or is this restaurant don't overcook it it's well done tam it looks like and family why can't you show me the set of balls beyond repair i've been doing that since i was 13 nice to you you don't see me see what you don't see me after sensing gordon's disappointment with lunch the family regroups in the kitchen we got to stop being the mother the husband the son family is one thing we are in the business yeah you know you think that it's that responsibility be the chef you better be the goddamn best chef on the side of mississippi i want to be the best chef on this side it's we're in michigan but i want you to be my father too you know i just want to grab my dad and give him a hug and say look it's gonna be all right you just gotta trust in me a little bit now it's time for joe sam and sous chef brian to hear the cold hard truth from chef ramsay hello sir how are you nice to meet you you said on the back of the menu step into giuseppe's and i'm going to take you through a romantic authentic restaurant in italy i like the passion but the palettes that eggplant bland milky spongy and then piping hot in the middle like it had been blasted in the microwave it was it was yeah so you don't bake them fresh no chef we got probably 3 000 respond that we did this question here and we didn't get one negative thing about the food so where the are they guys i don't know you don't need questionnaires they don't ring you up say by the way i'm not coming back they just don't come back they vote with their feet why are we serving potato skins do i want to come to an authentic italian restaurant with potato skins absolutely not a lot of people come here with their kids and their kids don't want to die i've lived in italy i've seen the italian families the way they eat together they don't serve children in italy potato skins with plastic cheese i'm going to show you there's no reason to have potato skins on an italian menu joe i'm not asking for excuses i'm here to help yeah but everything i'm saying all you're doing is finding me excuses don't me and i won't you do you understand yeah i got told in the car are the pressures facing this place but i can see why we're in the the food's crap guys i thought i had a job to do but now it's just become ten times bigger that's true i'll see you later on this afternoon get some rest thank you sir just that he may have been born in italy but he's certainly not delivering italian authentic cuisine here in michigan he may say on the back of the menu but he's not delivering flavor that's for sure before gordon can formulate his plan to turn around the restaurant he wants to see a dinner service and the staff in action how are you today good how are you hi how are you my name is carol zack come off at me looks like a cook or two hi how are you three yeah not a problem hi how are you is everything okay here so far good are you ready honey i am i would like to add plant meat sauce meat sauce thank you dude thank you byron hold baby and here we go what's up everyone's gonna be uh order roast potato how can we raise protectors in the microwave that's the program here so it just happy once has he lost his marbles my dad feels like he just needs to push the food out real fast you know he wants to melt cheese in the microwave but you can't take shortcuts like that it's horrible you know food comes out quick is that normal really quick too quick i think then what would you like i'll have the uh ravioli florentine thank you sometimes sailors or soups and then their main entree comes all at once you guys want to do the wings as well enjoy okay i always call it fast food italian basket yeah you're not wrong there the sauce is warm but the inside it needs to be warmed up okay honey hey brian can you please warm this for me yep more crap don't want it don't want a redo that was a ravioli with alfredo the pillows are hard well we have so much problem with that i i don't get it brian does the inside's a little bit on the cool side okay can i put it in the microwave unbelievable two things i can definitely confirm the first thing is they're fast unfortunately too faster than good the second thing is when they're fast they're sloppy over 12 dishes have come back and this place is about to explode unbelievable is everything okay tonight um i don't know if i like this too much you want something else it's a little bit too lemony i'll be right there excuse me i'm gonna have a reorder here a little too lemony maybe we should take the one goddamn recipe maybe we should put your ingredients on a little bit olive oil what just straight olive oil you want like a caramelity mix you put your salt pepper and garlic in here yes coming through i got it i was trying to ask you what you wanted hey if i said calamari mix you should know what i mean i didn't hear calamari mix that's what i said to see my father not trust me was just getting down right frustrating i don't know what else to show my environment this is supposed to be black and it wasn't blackened and that's all fat you need a new steak would they say i need a no did you want another steak yes okay medium rare blackened sam you know what blackened means dad i put it on a flat top i put the cajun seasoning on i put it on there and i cook both sides medium wear black and is that what blackened is i do need another steak medium rare blackened okay very black and very spicy whatever where's the kitchen spice i got it over here sam is like a new puppy that you have to constantly pay attention to him this is a joke he's now ready to run their business why don't we ever add thousands of slime there's a towel right there i won't even wipe my ass with that there's towels right there it's hollow down here joe did not like what the hell how's that steak on that redo you want me to cook it doesn't come out of my ass okay all right i hope it doesn't come out of your ass don't touch your stick what the hell sam get dressed out of there let's try to make him happy joe did not like after multiple dishes are returned joe kicks sam out of the kitchen okay sam get you us out of there and takes matters into his own hands you want to make somebody happy and that somebody happens to be your father you want to make him proud of you you want to make him believe in you but i don't know how to do that after 28 years i'm still trying now i'm really seriously starting to understand what it's like behind the scenes in the kitchen you've got brian there and sam cooking fine but too far so they're doing good all of a sudden joe walks in marks his orders and then disappears but when he walks in they all send her attention and he talks them like dirt unfortunately that dirt's his son sad right that was tough we've got ourselves in a real horrible rut cooking in that kitchen because it's just slamming food i've never seen so much food go in a microwave in all my life it's like no one's striving to be better you tell me how you feel about the frozen food i hate it i'm embarrassed to say it's my food why don't you tell dad that you want to cook fresh dad i want to cook fresh i want to cook fresh hey sam a good chair he he likes to cook i don't want my children insulted whether it's true or not it cuts me and only a mother would understand that and what's his weaknesses you're not committed you put 25 hours a week i used to work that with my when i had my first restaurant one day why haven't you been committed my father doesn't really talk to me that much and you know i i feel that you sometimes you hate me no i don't want to be i don't talk to you because you don't put enough time here to get involved where's your fire in your belly i mean what can you show me the same set of balls that i had and just go up there and try to make something out of it i've been doing that since i was 13 nice to you you don't see me you don't see me see what sam previous scrubbing floor is nice here i've been wanting you to notice me for a while i don't know how many times you looked at me and said hey holy good job not once this won't tell me about that every year you're not here long enough to do that sam i'm not long enough for you to say good job one time come on i don't know what else to say no matter what there's always a complaint i have not served him anything without him saying it's not done right it hurts i mean still to this day i'm almost 30 years old and that stupid hurts we've got our cards out on the table now i want to see the passion i want to see that little bit of flame relit the light's back on in the morning gordon wants to focus his attention on joe before the customer's coming let's have two minutes together not his battles with his son but his battle with a crippling disease how does it affect you that level of diabetes diabetes is the worst disease you can have i got pain in my legs every day and you have a uh proper medical insurance no i don't oh come on i don't okay we can't afford i had to cut it off you know i've been without insurance for you know since we opened this restaurant god's sake you know rest is the first thing you need you can't be here seven days a week i built this restaurant i've been putting in 70 hours a week i would like my son to run this restaurant that me kick back but sam doesn't follow through and now i'm stuck with this thing on my shoulder and i'm keep on digging until i dig myself out you can't be a master why not hey you've got to look after yourself you know you keep me posted on how you're feeling yeah okay thank you chad thank you before gordon can turn around giuseppe's i want to turn up a notch he needs to test sam's abilities i want to cook off and reignite joe's passion both of you cook something unique anything you want the front of house staff i'm gonna taste they won't know who's cooked what but what they will know is which dish is the best because that dish tonight is going on as a special ready let's go chef ramsay said that we were going to have the cook-off i kind of just wanted to do something simple but bold and hopefully impress chef ramsay and impress my father on top of it everything hand bought freshly made pasta fresh lasagna fresh salmon asparagus double pork chops garlic basil blow me away okay i saw the salmon just caught out of the water maybe two hours ago i had to go for the salmon i love it i use taste santa cut pork chop and i sear some scallops with some pancetta with some italian sausage and provolone cheese okay let's go okay right two dishes first one's a broiled salmon with asparagus coated an egg finished with problem cheese and the salmon has been char broiled next to that we've got a pork chop stuffed served on cyber grilled potatoes and gratinated with provolone cheese take a taste and then pass it down yeah i was confident in my dish because i always cook with a little flavor a little flavor to it okay we're gonna start with uh mum out of both dishes which one would you choose as a special i would take the pork chop put it with the potatoes not the pasta with the asparagus so bitter both that's a fair answer diplomat okay brian out of both dishes which one would you choose the uh pork chop pork chop yes right darling which one would you choose definitely the pork chop and the mushrooms okay feed it with the pork chop tony out of both dishes which one would you choose um i would have to say there's salmon salmon okay dawn if i was just looking at the menu and hadn't tasted them i'd probably go with the salmon but after tasting it i'd go with a pork chop right well done well thank you yeah really well done sure i was a little disappointed i'm not gonna lie but at the same time i want him to be better than me because i need someone to look up to i need a mentor in my life my choice out of both those dishes they're both good enough to go on this menu tonight yes that's what's going to happen two specials congratulations good dish i wish he would have wanted to tell you the truth you know which is this looked really good tonight you're gonna be cooking your father's special make sure you know the dish inside out you got it i'm real fired up not only because we're putting a new item out there that everybody's gonna taste but me and my father are gonna work together on each other's dishes and i know they're gonna be excellent with everyone feeling good about tonight's specials gordon begins to work on another problem of this restaurant the lack of communication between joe sam and kathy i'm here to help but it's you know it's every hour it's changing because i've never ever quite come across such a difficult restaurant situation in all my life because the restaurant's one thing but the biggest problem is the family and what i want you to do so i want you to write a letter and say in that letter what you really want to say to them both write that letter for me please don't show any of them yet my objective tonight is to push the specials you've got one made by the father and one from the up and coming son want to make sure that you sell them with joe momentarily out of the kitchen gordon sees a chance to speak with sam i will just give you two minutes to drew yeah tonight when you get out of here you get home i want you to tell me in a letter to your father yeah what you really feel about him what kind of figure that guy is in your life yeah i want you to put it on paper for me discreetly and i mean discreetly hi how are you good thank you first customers are here yeah here we go yeah booth over here okay we're gonna put the pork okay and the scallop untied um i am going to try the salmon right choose something special that'd be special as well thank you okay here we go you're going to be expediting in and out and you're on the line yeah yeah yeah good good man so it's going to be two pork giuseppe okay two pork chisepies all right let's show them what we're made of olive oil very nice what a breath of fresh air every dish like that yes yes sir salmon enjoy your meal two seven supports you got it i really like the pork chop don't overcook this ham it's just done once again joe can't give up control of the kitchen it's well done instead of expediting and making sure orders are filled quickly he's at the stove cooking sam's dishes it took 25 minutes for a calamari joe are you expediting no not really i can't read without my glasses your glasses around your neck this is his heart this is his place but he's got to learn that he can't always be in the middle of the action i can't do it anymore man what's going on brother he's going to kill himself my sugar is low i'm up joe expedite let sound cook jesus christ want to switch i'll i'll dress them up well i can see man i got things backing on him i got snow chef ramsay wanted joe to expedite but that's italian in him never let go never give up never surrender help me pull him off right because that's the only way i mean literally we gotta pull him on how'd you get off that stove he's magnetized that is that a steak it's well done i don't like that steak i don't like it it's well done tam it looks like tim yeah kick him off there i'm sorry dad but your sugar's up you gotta get off thank you with joe finally off the line if that kid we don't let him stand and fail a few times he's never gonna stand up sam and brian regain control of the kitchen that my friend there you go tommy and finish the service very good and while the staff was cleaning up two seconds gordon cornered joe is it your wish that one day sam takes over yeah i want you to go home and just write a short letter how you feel about him what he means to you and what you want him to be one day i want you to talk from the heart and you've got to keep it between you and i i will i will even though the specials were a big success this restaurant still has a long way to go before it's ready for relaunch tonight wasn't good enough for this restaurant if we're going to establish any form of longevity i know we can all do better tomorrow we are going to do better we're going to relaunch and market this place so you get yourself off to bed yeah so you're going to work for change i mean you want to such a rottweiler okay good night immediately after the family and staff left chef ramsay's team went into high gear working through the night to transform giuseppe's
