Watch Restaurant: Impossible Season 5 Episode 5 Whiskey Creek Steakhouse Online free and Download Restaurant: Impossible Season 5 Episode 5 Whiskey Creek Steakhouse Episode show Turning around a failing restaurant is a daunting
challenge under the best of circumstances. Attempting to do it in just
two days with only $10,000 may be impossible, but that's exactly what
Chef Robert Irvine sets out to do in his new Food Network show, Restaurant
Impossible. Robert will use a little MacGyver and a lot of muscle to
rescue these desperate places from complete collapse. Can one man, in
two days, with $10,000, turn the tide of a failing restaurant and give
hope to the owners and their employees? Find out as Robert Irvine takes
on Restaurant: Impossible.
the program is highly scripted to the point of people waiting to deliver their lines, being moved to a better location for the camera, about as rehearsed as 'reality' can get; then there's the host, a failed restaurant owner who lied on his resume and was fired but somehow got back on the air; then there's the cooking; nope, it's yelling and screaming instead, but every once in a while a great revelation like the host's chicken tastes better because? ready? he put salt and pepper on it; geez, who knew; then there's the mythical 10k budget, except there seem to be dozens of volunteers and donators; try buying a full commercial kitchen, stainless, triple sink, double fryers, oven, broiler, warming oven and 2 fridges (plus full pots, pans and utensils) for $7k? so yes, ramsey's format except the guy here is thickheaded, says the same thing again and again, yells a lot, and doesn't cook; watched one full, tried another to see if that was just an embarrassing fluke; nope
Each week, a different failing restaurant is given a FAST makeover by Robert Irvine and his assistants. In many cases, you find the restaurant owners likable but clueless. In others, they just seem like annoying jerks who seem to fight Irvine's suggestions--and the audience WANTS to see them fail but Irvine, inexplicably, doesn't give up. Regardless, by the end of the show, the establishment is cleaner, brighter and more able to succeed. Despite being HIGHLY scripted, the show, overall, is very entertaining. My only complaints are that the followups online are very vague and I'd LOVE to see a followup show a year or two later when they revisit many of the old shows. Still, a simple idea that manages to work.
I know that there has been some controversy about the host, Robert Irvine's credentials. I tried to get to the truth of this by reading a lot of articles on the internet and really couldn't. It appears as if he might have exaggerated a bit instead of actually lying about his experiences. However, he IS a very good host of the show--mostly because he appears to care so much about the people (unlike in the British version of this show--where the host is very abusive).
