Kitchen Nightmares Season Premiere Key Art

Gordon Ramsay’s back in the kitchen, and this time, the heat is on at the Simmer Down Cafe. In the season finale of “Kitchen Nightmares,” Ramsay attempts to rescue a restaurant that, by all accounts, is operating more like a three-ring circus. Owner Chris is described as overworked and a micromanager, habits that have seemingly wreaked havoc on his business, his health, and even his marriage.

Ramsay’s task is to bring some order to the chaos, which means confronting Chris about his management style and implementing some fundamental systems. It’s a tall order, especially given the apparent dysfunction within the restaurant. But if anyone can turn a failing restaurant around, it’s Ramsay. Will he manage to instill some discipline and reignite the passion for cooking, or will the Simmer Down Cafe boil over completely?
