although the cooking was very impressive, what was more impressive was not telling the American man to shut up mid rush 😂

[@sactownism]

I'm an American and Americans are the worst type of travelers in the world.

I love watching these, brings nice memories. When I was in University I went to work in a restaurant as a chef (Raymond Blanc's), it was really amazing, but I couldn't handle the heat of doing it full time I think, you chefs out there are hard as! major hats off to you all, working unsociable hours and long hours and in a fast paced environment. Very rewarding and extremely talented though. Once again, huge kudos to any chef reading this.

[@FallowLondon]

Thanks for sharing!

[@Bas_Lightyear]

That fist grab at 5:18 was pure universal awkwardness

[@kevink7968]

that grab is normal in the UK

[@Purgiful]

The attention to detail is amazing - would definitely try and secure a reservation if I were to make it back to London again.

[@robertlee4172]

16:13...Ticket gets a rinse. That little extra touch makes it so much better.

[@oseagjoni3098]

😂

[@jamesfraser2154]

the awkward nice shirt proceed to fist bump then she grabs his hand oh i could never

[@JohJakobsen]

Hey guys! Love your videos! Truly amazing content, inspiration for all of us! Could you guys make a video where you go through the garnish and the starters stations? Same consept as with all the sauces in the kitchen. Would be fantastic! Love from Norway!

[@user-tv5ht8ig6q]

Great teamwork; your guests are served delicious meals at amazing speed ! 😊

[@vdawg09]

This channel blew up quickly jeez lmao good for you guys! Keep it up!

[@abicooks]

I hope my future cooking Channel is going to blow up too 🥹

[@jomcc1987]

This deserves more views J love this and it makes me want to work like this and to have a better work experience!❤❤❤

[@automnthe8964]

hi i'm french and to be honest i did not really expect to see such a good place on youtube,i would really love to come and eat there one day and it keeps me happy to know that one day i might be as good as you. Hope you the best

[@ghoulishpugold2348]

I used to work at restaurant as a dishwasher. Every morning that I woke up, I was having anxiety of just going on there. Even though that morning dishwasher are not that too busy hahaha. If I ever return I would pick the morning dishwasher to just get back at day work instead of overnight work.

[@nikip9161]

The symphony that is the kitchen, be it manned by one, two, three, or 15..., all beautiful chaos. ❤❤❤❤❤😋👍🌻

[@user-lz3iq3kf3x]

I recommend watching the bear to people and if they say they liked it i always show em these POVs. They say they didnt know they needed these in there lives. Keep up the hardwork restaraunt and youtube sheeesh!! 🎉

[@Overworkt]

It's pretty much why I came here 😅

[@robertlee4172]

A very well-organized ticket system. Not a shout or a yell at service staff. Not even a berating of the line cooks. Possibly got it out of the way earlier during the shift. Although the dining room isn't so full. Could that be it?

[@CoolKillCams]

Would love to see a video about the gels, maybe a run down of the flavours and preparation. cheers lads.

[@ephremcortvrint2376]

I was wondering if it was possible to show the prep work? All that slick work needs prep and I'm quite curious about it.

[@eke8448]

14:13 yes chef

[@cablefellow5315]

Looks amazing!

[@ladislavbajo6882]

fist bump fail at 4:42 :(

[@conkwonthechef9569]

Omg didn't wash hand after

[@krommezuidvrucht6474]

5:17 , an even more awkward moment :D

[@jacoblandfield2526]

Read three comments on another video and subscribed before the reel started.

[@AllegroAssai]

nice video! more bartender action pleaseeeeeee

[@user-xi2wb1hq4q]

love this guys, would love to work here

[@CaptainKnightWing-kb6tx]

What’s the thing called the small water tap thing in the table where you put the used spoons and other utensils in to rinses to reuse?

[@KrisV385]

ice cream well...constant water flow to keep it sanitary.

[@Aimtofflan]

@@KrisV385 Is there soap in there too? Cuz just water wont sanitize on its own surely?

[@JapethSierra]

quat sanitizer solution and hot water does the trick

[@bajrocker5590]

can you film the set up of the kitchen right before you have customers come in.

[@Helloriri99]

Hi! Anytime I watch these videos. I always think of the waitstaff. Do the waitstaff in the UK or Europe in general get tipped? Here in the US we do.

[@Aimtofflan]

We dont tip, we pay normal wages :)

[@Helloriri99]

@@Aimtofflan thank you for answering!

[@Bobble86]

Yes it's in one of the busiest restaurants in London, the tips will be very good. But UK pays fairer wages for wait staff anyway.

[@broshmosh]

Tipping isn't required to form part of the server's wage in the UK. You can choose to tip. It depends on the place's tipping policy whether that goes straight to the server, or whether it's divvied out among all staff. Also depends on the precise mthod of tipping - I think cash given directly to a server doesn't have to go into the general tips pot, again depends on the place.

[@babek6662]

This place will likely have an option service charge of 15% added to the bill. I used to work at a restaurant in london with 12.5% which usually amounted to an extra £400 on top of my wage. It was really great

[@brynwest4495]

15:39 what is the size of that small sauce pot? is it a 1.5 quart?

[@matthewlapper5346]

I really 😢 want to meet them

[@ReFoxBlue]

Any tips on how to become a better chef? Im a new chef, less than a year from culinary school but aiming at higher things

[@OnlyFlans42]

You will always be limited by your environment & the attitude of those around you. Start by making sure you work in a restaurant that serves dishes you could only strive to achieve yourself!

[@JapethSierra]

be greedy, grab every small or big opportunity of to learn without hesitation. also in culinary school create good, strong relationships with all the good, skilled people, they will become indispensable when you need connections for certain things down the line. Learn the basics and foundations of cuisine to a degree of a master before even thinking of doing something "quirky" or "innovative"

[@dogcatdogable]

most interested in what happened/who got shouted at in between the cuts

[@vivekpluch]

😅

[@BeatdownGG]

Open place like that, probably not too much. That's a take you outside to have a smoke and chat situation at a later time.

[@dannyg88]

controlled chaos 😅

[@samuelsungu6196]

That knife hanging off the board into the sink, is genuinely giving me anxiety soo worrying😬🙃, pls move that just 4 inch to the right 😅

[@reallyyouthful]

Unusual to see charcuterie made up on the pass.

[@socallawrence]

Translate please 😁

[@juanlilg]

@@socallawrenceNO!

[@alec3945]

@@socallawrence charcuterie is a meat board. Usually made up in larder (cold) section. Not the pass (dockets and finishing touches)

[@socallawrence]

@@alec3945 thank you !

[@blackxpearl5348]

We miss Mr.Marcus the best bartender :)

[@lucianoromero777]

Watching this while I can’t afford food sucks 😢

[@Philllin]

looks easy on video but from experience, cooking is quite hard...

[@ryanjayi.villorente4642]

HOL UP✋LET THEM COOK!

[@rachelleposadas5766]

I want to work for you, but I live in Montreal.

[@jarrodezell4524]

Plating is horrendous. I'm sure the flavors are good but presentation is everything. You eat with your eyes first, not closed

[@AlternativeGeopolitics]

There is nothing about this that is top. slow and plates look avg. Go to a Michelin kitchen and this would be how NOT to do things.

[@Shabla7]

Pipe down dweeb

[@AM2K2]

🤓

[@ori-yorudan]

How would someone that never leaves their house know anything about how to run a kitchen?

[@FlamingBasketballClub]

These chefs cook real fast with 2x playback speed. 💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀

[@jonathancrompton9388]

Hi guys, love your videos but I have a question: Do FOH have dockets on other side of the pass? if not, how the heck they know which table when we dont tell them?

[@sean8563]

We need 4 hour videos everyday. Thanks. 😂🤌

[@LewackiOnanista]

cleaning and display 1st place then food, it aint cooking even

[@oseagjoni3098]

They are mainly controlling the quality, running the service and just putting the finishing touches, the rest of the chefs prepare the food mostly

[@Shifty319]

Plating chefs have done enough hard yards and know what the fuck they're looking it. This is partly their reward for all of the long years of getting knives thrown at them from other ego-tripping HC's who have the emotional maturity of soggy bread

[@FlamingBasketballClub]

Episodes 392, 393 and 394 of Wise Traditions podcast debunks the myth of having to be a vegan to support animal rights and planetary health.

[@justbobbeh]

happy for you

[@protopigeon]

congrats i'm sure

[@FlamingBasketballClub]

@@justbobbeh I'd highly recommend listening to those episodes.
