BuddyTV - USA - Hell's Kitchen is popularly known for featuring wannabe chefs as they go through a culinary boot camp under volatile British master chef
Gordon Ramsay. While all the flaring continues on the reality show,
Josh Emmet, chef de cuisine at
Gordon Ramsay at The London, dishes out what's it really like to be working for a boss with a notorious reputation.
Emmet, a New Zealand-born chef, has been working for
Gordon Ramsay for the last seven years. As the head of chef of
Gordon Ramsay at The London, Ramsay's first U.S. venture, he heads the daily operations and does everything in a meticulous way.
Naturally, many are curious to know if Ramsay runs his restaurants the same way he treats participants on the show Hell's Kitchen.
"It's daunting for any young cook to look inside our kitchen and try to imagine what it's like," Emmet revealed. "We don't run an aggressive kitchen. We run our kitchens in a very firm, but very fair, way. That's just the nature of the kitchen. If it was all rosy, it wouldn't seem right."
