Big Chef Takes On Little Chef

I've been watching the first episode of this program on 4OD and one thought has struck me so far;

Fuck off, you up-yourself git.


The Little Chef boss guy is perfectly within his rights not to discuss the profits of his business on camera, particularly after you were a rude bastard to him about the menu. Just tell him it needs to go, don't string him along. And he didn't refuse to tell you, don't lie when we've all just watched that scene. He refused to tell you on camera.


Christ, I hate that fake drama thing channel 4 does sometimes. Back to the show now.

Edit 1:

Little Chef used to work because of its classic British food, which we don't get nearly enough of. That's started to fail, mostly because of the quality. The boss guy's tried to add exotic flavours and strange recipes, such as Hawaiian hamburgers and pasta to the menu, to make it more exciting. That isn't working.


Chef guy's trying to create traditional yet delicious and unusual British recipes, to take the brand back to what it used to be. Boss guy is muttering about Blue Sky thinking and how it's not original enough.


Fucks sake. The 'blue sky thinking' approach hasn't worked so far. Why don't we try thinking outside the box, letting the lemurs run free, and returning to traditional values in food?


(I've been watching that Will & Grace Episode where Grace is taught how to do that corporate speak).


Also, boss wanker dude, send the figures already. Losing sympathy fast. Chef guy is a successful businessman and is doing you the favour.
