The wife is really something. I feel like the restaurant was not his idea. I feel he was pushed to do it and now he is stuck. Her hammering into him expectation after expectation made him disassociate from everything. The kids...gosh the financial relationship...I cant imagine the pressure.

This was such a shame. He was clearly a skilled and capable chef. Just struggled to find his place as an owner. Can criticize men for our egos, but a man that cant, or doesnt have pride in what hes doing, feels lost in purpose or worse, a failure, and is a broken man. Thats just the way it is. These men need comforting support and vote of confidence. Not constant criticism. Trust me they are their own critic and worse enemy.

I have to agree, a spouse should be supportive, only critical when it's actually necessary, but never forgets to tell their significant other what they do well and the areas where they succeed. You can't constantly rip on someone and expect that to help, very few people actually improve with that kind of treatment. Especially from their spouse...

Best thing he could do now is get a divorce and the place will be running great

never been so early by a video, just 2 minutes old!

The introductions are longer than the program.

You know it's footage like this and my lacking experience of sushi in general. Be it from well reviewed places or random offerings of a venue. Frozen or otherwise not fresh. A lot of people may not be aware, but frozen products in transit are allowed to be marked fresh. So when I'm not near a coast line within hours, fish anything is avoided. I think the critical mistake he made was moving from an area the restaurant was successful into another on the idea it will remain that way.

The samurai was nice though

sushi

I hope the restaurant does well. This was about the saddest KN Ive seen. That poor man was living a trial no one should have to. I think the wife thinks she knows what is going on, but doesn't really. She needs to get out of the way.

Gordon clearly doesn't know what freaky combos the Japanese are willing to try in their food. I'm pretty sure that sushi pizza would be a success in Tokyo. Especially as a seasonal 7/11 dish.
