I went into one of his restaurants years ago with a mate, the prices were fucking extortionate and the food was mid at best.
His restaurant failed because it’s basic shit pretending to be good at a high price.
I had a steak at his place a while back. My ex wanted to go. They called it a sizzle steak or something. It was well prepared, I suppose, but it was small and was not a cut I would even call a steak. For what it cost, it should have been a hefty T-bone. I left hungry. Funnily enough, never went back.
Surprise surprise, advocating healthy eating and serving microwave meals doesn’t go down well.
‘James Italian’ was one of the worse Resturant experiences I can remember. We left before deserts arrived due to the astoundingly bad food, service and vastly overpriced. We had refused to pay the majority of the bill and settled at 50%.
He always seemed to be someone who would sell his ‘brand’ to anyone that wanted it. He had a range of lawn furniture at one point.
Cant really blame him since he seems to like being the talking head and he made a ton of money doing it.
He comes across really poorly. He doesnt explain anything in detail. His empire cost 1000 people their jobs but he’s obviously fine, because he has book and endorsement deals. Being “bad at maths” doesnt wash with me. He couldn’t employ some people who were good at maths? This just comes across as weak damage control.
His name and abilities should be used as a perfect example of the definition, “being at the right place at the right time”, In my opinion.
Conceptually thick is a euphemism for greedy cant now is it?
Any celebrity chef restaurant you go to is twice as expensive as the next best restaurant. That’s almost always the reason they go under
Product market for. He should have focused on homely food at a reasonable price. That matched who he was appealing too
He put £25m of his own money into a doomed business? I appreciate he wanted to keep the staff in a job, but christ – that must have been a significant part of his entire savings… he could have just opened another chain properly and re-hired the staff.
Also failed because it was fucking awful food. Genuinely one of the worst restaurant meals I’ve ever had.
Is it time to post this again?

For all his gaffes and blunders, I appreciate his sincerity in public reflection. I can not say the same of other celebrities, chef or otherwise
Aren’t most these celebrity chain restaurants normally run by mba’s and shit. I would assume he would have very little input into actual operations.
His one I went to bout 20byears ago was great… But then quality dipped as they expanded.
Shame… Could prob have just had 5 or so and done well
>“But and through my inability and it sounds like I’m being hard on myself, but I recognise it now through, you know, my inability to exercise the demons of like actually like maybe you’re not s**t at that and actually you can retrain that.”
This is a sidenote but this is absolutely an AI transcription that someone hasn’t even bothered to check properly.
