Bourdain's chef skills are not even close. As a person. Bourdain is a fraud when representing himself in his media. Ramsey may be exaggerated, but at least on his non-Hell's Kitchen ( dramatic reality TV for Americans) shows, he is himself.

>> No.3892047

Ramsey's shows just seem so set up. He's strayed too much into the entertainment business now, it's all show with him.

Bourdain has his faults but he's more honest in his shows. And he can't cook for shit outside of his mastered dishes(French only). If I were to decide on who would cook my dinner I'd go with Ramsey but when it comes to their shows, Bourdain is miles ahead.

>> No.3892087

for those who haven't, you should watch Ramsay's Great Escape, it's the GOAT tier Ramsay Show
season 1 he tours India, season 2 he tours SE Asia
he basically goes around each region and learns the ways of traditional foods there, while interacting with the locals and being an all-around awesome dude
at the end of each episode he applies what he's learned and cooks a meal for some local VIPs
it's great because he's just being himself and not trying to act outrageous for ratings, it's alot like what Bourdain does on his shows

No, Bourdain is honest about what he does. He doesn't pretend to be a god of the kitchen like Ramsey does. In fact, Ramsey now is just an enterprise, it's no longer about cooking, especially with his new show about hotels(what the fuck does a chef know about hotels?). There was an article a couple of years ago that said something like 90% of the restaurants he helps on kitchen nightmares end up closed within a year. His shows are only there to make him and his restaurant empire look better in the eyes of the public. You gonna talk to me about either one of their integrity? At least Bourdain is willing to admit that he was a piece of shit coke head when he was younger, Ramsey is just milking his own tit.

>>3892087
This is pretty much the only good show he's ever made. It's just that Ramseys personality, he's built up this image of being a complete cunt of a person that's making it very hard to like him even in a good show.

>> No.3892440

>>3892437
The fact that the restaurants fail on Kitchen Nightmares isn't necessarily his fault. The staff are usually incompetent, lazy, cheap, untrained, etc. If there isn't somebody there to directly supervise what's going on, things might just go back to old, bad habits.

>> No.3892453

>>3892440
I understand that but the way pretty much every single episode ends where Ramsey is seen like some sort of reincarnation of Jesus saving the restaurant is all a sham. Even the restaurants where he goes back and the owners say everything is amazing end up failing. He's supposed to be there to help them but the failure rate is incredibly high. It's all tv magic, the guy is good at it, his PR is amazing.

Any other Bourdain fans feel like he lost his touch when he started The Layover? I feel like it's all hipster pandering all the time in this new season of No Reservations, and I found the few episodes of The Layover I watched to veer into cringe-worthy territory very often.

I didn't like the Layover because it's not really made for your average viewer. A lot of the restaurants he goes to on that show are way too expensive for most people to just stop by when they're in town for a day.

But I have to disagree about his No Reservations episodes. The Penang episode was very well made, as was the one in Baja. KC episode was stupid but this happened earlier in the series as well.

Have you only watched hell's kitchen and kitchen nightmares on American TV? Do you not realize Bourdain fucking lies to people on his shows, proclaims good local cuisines, then goes back to his hotel and eats fois gras while talking shit on the locals? He's a total douche and cooking noob compared to Ramsay. Ramsay is actually a great guy, but knows that drama will rake the dough in for him via the American audience.

I haven't read the thread and I'm doing a quick reply, so apologies if this was mentioned.

Ramsay is almost certainly a conservative, correct? I know Bourdain is a liberal.

I like Bourdain's book and television show when it focuses on the food. When it tries to be political, I have to fast forward.

On the other hand, I hate Ramsay's books and shows even when it does focus on the food. It's too pretentious -- look up the definition of the word if you think I mean "elitism" or something. People actually think this man never makes a mistake in a kitchen. I'll admit the BBC stuff is slightly better.

But damn if Ramsay doesn't make me laugh. Hard. People are immoral, disgusting, lazy...you have to love the guy for reminding us of it all.
