The point was that the footage is a happy little accident, and not a result of Ramsey being noteworthy when this footage was shot. Yes, he overshadowed Marco. He's better known.

    I started out at 19 years old working as a commis chef at Zafferano, when Giorgio Locatelli was the head chef. This was after chef school in Italy. After two years of chef work at the Michelin Star restaurant I went back to college in London and eventually became an artist. Chef life was like being in the military. Far less creative than I had hoped it would be. Way too stressful, but some aspects were quite satisfying.

I am also turning to art after 2 failed attempts at pizzeria/restaurant and bakery business. I'm too soft-spoken and slow for the fast-paced, harsh, tough culinary business. I barely earned anything today, but my life is peaceful and happier than ever. 😅 I respect and admire people like Gordon Ramsay, but I could never be like him...just hope that someday I can afford his craft even just once before I die. I want to know what the food made with such passion tastes like. ❤

Only one chef was and he was honest when he tried my stuff. He was a head chef at the Whitehouse for a previous president (either nixon or regan) and i loved that despite all his experiences and expertise he wanted to learn and collaborate and expand alongside his students so we all grew

I can tell you this - even this being 'fun', having to perfectly bash flat a whackload of chickens was freaking exhausting / stressful. You work in the space of a phone booth, cramped, under pressure and my back was killing me within 10 minutes of the awkward 'lean over'.

It's already a very stressful job so yelling at each other and calling each other names doesn't help at all really. A leader encourages someone, not tears them down and belittles them. It's a kitchen not the military. I'm sure a lot of the way he acts in the kitchen is more for show but swearing and getting mad at your employees is never professional, I don't care what country you're from. Here in America if you belittle someone in the job you might get your ass kicked whether you are the boss or not.

      @@guitarsandcars2586 Part of that is for the show, part of it is because most of the chefs on Hell's Kitchen are people that are supposedly top chef in their kitchens but are screwing up relatively basic things that they should have down pat. Many of them pride themselves as masters of the craft but continuously ruin dishes and can't work together at all.
      If you watch Gordon in Master Chef, Master Chef Jr, or Next Level Chef, you see a lot more of his encouragement come out because he's not dealing with people that are supposed to be professional chefs, they're people that are still learning and he's very supportive of them.

      @@guitarsandcars2586 Agree completely. Especially when it comes to Gordon Ramsey since he has experience being screamed at with such vitriol that it reduced him to a sobbing mess as he huddled in a corner. After experiencing that kind of pain and humiliation, why would you ever want to inflict that on someone else even if it is played up for a camera?
      By the way, the person who reduced Ramsey to that state? Marco Pierre White, the chef who's talking in this very video.

I love how he immediately starts cutting the pieces for the ravioli before Marco can even turn back around, but then as soon as Marco starts working with them he keeps his hands out of the way and quickly moves one of the pieces of ravioli out of the way of Marco’s hands/elbow. He also notices the moment that Marco moves over to the station he’s at, and moves to start working at another station so he’s not in the way.
