Dubious digs Ramsay checks into Fox for season 2 of ‘Hotel Hell’
By Shona Dustan TV Media
Gordon Ramsay is a force to be reckoned with.
After taking his native Great Britain by storm, Ramsay has officially won over hearts — and television sets — on this side of the pond. His fourth series for the Fox network is now well into its second season, and with Ramsay’s candid and colorful personality as popular as ever, it shows no signs of slowing down. Catch a new episode of “Hotel Hell” airing Monday, Aug. 18, on Fox.
The sophomore season of Ramsay’s latest reality hit premiered in July and saw the world famous Scottish chef working his magic in Las Cruces, N.M., where Cali Szczawinski runs the Meson de Mesilla Hotel, a Tuscan-style accommodation in the middle of the New Mexico desert. Unfortunately — as with all of Ramsay’s “Hotel Hell” subjects — her business model leaves much to be desired. Watching Ramsay swoop in with his characteristic brash bluntness is always a delight, and he really didn’t pull any punches for this season opener.
After being besieged with images of how the plain, dirty, unprofessional hotel was being run, fans got to revel in the carnage as Ramsay tore Cali’s business acumen to shreds. A general manager was fired, cooks were given the third degree and, most importantly, Cali was banned from ever singing karaoke in her hotel again. One guest even told the woman, “I would pay you $100 not to sing,” but Ramsay managed to make it happen without shelling out cash. By the end of the season premiere, it’s clear that the great Gordon Ramsay still has that special something that has made him a fixture of both British and American TV — that plus an impressive physique, as a quick dip in the Meson de Mesilla Hotel’s contaminated pool reveals. This season of “Hotel Hell” promises even more drama than the last, and it seems Ramsay is in his element once again.
Oddly, though, Gordon Ramsay began his professional life in a job
far from the hospitality industry. Once upon a time, he was a footballer (or soccer player, if that suits you better), though his short competitive career was marred by setbacks and injuries. When it came time for him to move into the big leagues, Ramsay had the distinct honor of training with his beloved Glasgow Rangers, but fell
the world’s best chefs, Ramsay spent the late ‘80s and early ‘90s making a name for himself in the restaurant world. Despite a few scandals (an affair with the wife of a restaurateur he worked for definitely created a bump in the road to success), Ramsay’s work spoke for itself. By 1998, he had opened his own restaurant, and
skills — as well as his unpredictable personality — had already earned him some television time in the U.K. with the kitchen documentaries “Boiling Point” (1999) and “Beyond Boiling Point” (2000), as well as a BAFTA-winning episode of “Faking It” in 2001. But it wasn’t until 2004 that Ramsay’s television career really
no time getting on the Gordon Ramsay bandwagon, and by 2005, the network was producing a U.S. version of “Hell’s Kitchen,” focusing on the drama that’s so often whipped up by Ramsay’s short temper, focus and perfectionism. The series is still going strong, its 13th season set to premiere this September.
network. In 2010, he signed on as both producer and judge on Fox’s U.S. version of “MasterChef,” a show that’s seen five seasons and is still going strong. Add that to a handful of British series Ramsay has developed and starred in on the side, and you’ve got one uberbusy chef.
The latest collaboration be-
diences love the dynamic of Ramhanded approach to helping
chef travels the country, mark — and hopefully nesses — in his wake.

WhenI was a kid, I liked to play outside. The last thing I wanted to do was be stuck in the kitchen — unless, of course, there were warm cookies fresh out of the oven!
Well, apparently that’s not for every kid. Last year, we saw two fantastic kid-oriented spins on hit shows. Fox brought us “MasterChef Junior,” a real treat that showed off Gordon Ramsay’s warm and fuzzy side, while the Food Network had “Rachael vs. Guy: Kids Cook-Off,” a surprisingly charming take on a show that typically features celebrities who are all thumbs in the kitchen.
Well, a new batch of kiddies is heading into the kitchen with Rachael Ray and Guy Fieri as a second season of “Rachael vs. Guy: Kids Cook-Off” kicks off Sunday, Aug. 17, on the Food Network.
Unlike the celebrities who compete in “Rachael vs. Guy: Celebrity Cook-Off,” these eight adorable kids have some serious skills in the kitchen. Like the celebrities, the kids will be divided into two teams that will be guided and mentored by either Ray or Fieri, who are in it to prove that they have what it
takes to turn these youthful home cooks into culinary pros.
The challenges these kids will be put through are enough to make grownups shake in their boots. As the competition progresses, they’ll have to identify ingredients while blindfolded, compete in a “Chopped”-style challenge with a basket of mystery ingredients, make a sandwich for the “Sandwich King” himself, Jeff Mauro, and even cook a dish using their most hated ingredients.
As if Ray, Fieri and Mauro weren’t enough to make any young
cook feel star-struck, a bevy of other celebrity chefs will be popping by throughout the show’s run. Cat Cora, Ted Allen, Alex Guarnaschelli, G. Garvin, Robert Irvine, Curtis Stone and Wolfgang Puck will all be showing up to judge dishes, to announce challenges and just to inspire these aspiring young cooks.
The stakes are pretty high for these kids, too — they’re not just competing for a gold star or a pat on the head. The winner of the competition will get their very own web series on the Food Network’s website.
It’s a prize that could very well kick-start a lifelong career as a celebrity chef. Tune in for the season premiere of “Rachael vs. Guy: Kids Cook-Off” Sunday, Aug. 17, on the Food Network.
