Working with Chef Gordon Ramsay

  After a week long battle with the infamous Chef Gordan Ramsey, he was a pleasure to work with in filming his hit TV show 'Kitchen Nightmares! 

      Michon's episode pulled in over 2.2 million viewers, making it the top rated show in the history of Kitchen Nightmares. 

      Michon's episode did not portray a "nightmare" as other episodes typically do.  It's main focus was on the owners passing the torch of the business to their daughter Natalie Michon.  ​

      When he walked in, he thoroughly enjoyed the atmosphere.  He shared several nuggets of valuable information.  He said "These wings are to die for...you have the Rolls Royce of Smokers"​
