destinations for shopping and dining on this same street as a landmark restaurant called the freight a bistro owned by French immigrants Andre Rieu million left feet opened in 1972 we had the only French restaurant on the boulevard right this way there was always busy even at 12 o clock at midnight to a packed after years of success Andres son Alex was eager to join his father at Laphroaig I was looking forward to my dad and myself making this restaurant work for the next 15 20 30 years but two years ago Andres daughter Celine decided she also wanted in on the family business do you care this going out like this the soupy you're the boss I know my brother's not happy that I'm here I know he wishes that he could just keep going the way he was going I think that this restaurant has so much more potential than it's already had and I really felt like it could really make a difference here food is mediocre at best you know I've been cooking a lot Fred for about 19 years I'm responsible under present for everything is in the kitchen I don't think the menu is is there is nothing wrong with it onion soup is bitter I'm useless [ __ ] martini has a Napoleon complex he's a little man with the big mouth I've watched the food just slowly kind of go down and down it down souffle is coming back to begging you I've made my comments I can't tell anybody anything just I either get argued with or I get told no oh Wow Alexei's a little wax at a sickle sometimes she resents Selena I'm not the manager tonight it feels slighted he feels shot my brother and I used to get along really really well and we were very close but the restaurants hurt our relationship pretty bad I don't hate Alex it's you I know he does it's really difficult for me because I'm the one who has to be the buffer for both of them and I wish sometimes they can understand each other it's so quiet in here the numbers just cut down to a third of what we were doing before now we are dead by nine o'clock hey we only did about 20 covers tonight it's going to be tough I need Chef Ramsay to come in because someone needs to say hey look this is what's affecting your business yeah it's slowing down but why do we need to change things when it has been working for such-and-such enough years we're losing money and it's time for my kids to take over and if they work together just have to close the door

back Alex didn't want sailing to come back because he saw do you own the place they never really work together and it's really difficult to to find a solution it's getting to a point where I can

take the look great salad to him chef Renzi we like their pools because all my food is good how much dressing would you like things you love a place about three quarters to start and inside the salad we've got the salad is the remain the the walnuts and you've got your blue cheese as well that's one portion it's massive salads are large and it's usually good as an entree injector Wow it's bland vinaigrette dressing is some the vinaigrette dressing is so strong just overpowering are you through the salad I am yeah yep I already know do you mention to the chef yeah no one listens to me you knew is wrong you told them but no one's listening to you sorry melons why is that Martine doesn't listen to me and we eat hasn't is she taking anything from a female is this chauvinistic stance yes some of it it's absurd disgusting I'll let him know thank you I am embarrassed by the favor I just think that it can all be improved immensely Martine your vinaigrette is to degree okay you know what is wrong with it because we've been running this food for many years Martine you heard me right I'm just letting you guys know what he's saying okay look this is gonna be the see if the craziness about in front of you here it looks like a pie basically if they take the dish they line it with the with the crepes they fill it with the items fold it back and then they bake it they're not like your typical French crepe but why would you call it a crepe if there's not really any cream I think when the secret crepe comes out it just looks like a Slurpee mess of watch have a word with your big brother does he pay or not he's unfortunate he will be here for dinner service tonight okay all right enjoy thank you [Music] as hideous hot and part like in the middle but the side s stone cold for me to take it does the other not working now the ovens work can't serve this show and expect us mr. flood through the door I understand how long's he been here Martine - Lonnie you know wrong there Martine lost his mojo around here many years ago if you got someone who doesn't care about the food they're putting out what do you have that it's hot the middle it's pulled on the side doesn't [ __ ] how long's that been under the grill because it looks like it's been overcooked it's piping hot is he microwaving that I don't know girl yeah well normally something's that piping hot like that it always tells you that it's been microwaved can you just check with a chef nothing I'll check listen thank you okay my kid the quiche is warmed in the oven yeah hasn't seen the microwave chef teach no microwave I asked him if he put it in he said now I'm convinced this has been microwaved look at it it's congealed it's just like a rubber puck sometimes if he gets a little backed up I I've seen him do it before backed up this is ridiculous I'm let's go and meet Martin please it's a food issue right now that starts from the kitchen if we had somebody in here who cared about the food we'd be so much better than we are now oktin I want you to meet chef Pham say around please you're the head chef and everything I ate for lunch you cooked yes sir lunch was a disaster the key terrain was rancid

with Alex's arrogance Astor Selene she is clearly feeling the resentment from her brother Watchers because I did this to cinema stop calling they ain't hurtin I can see the anger it's got to come out

can't be bothered to get his ass over here to look at the mess that he's left I'm out of here [Music] hi papa you need to see this right now a lot of foods coming back you know and just alex is really just kind of just nonchalant about the whole thing and its really kind of pissing bording off he the same attitude he always takes papa you know exactly you know okay okay [Music] Andre got two seconds unbelievable first of all I'm slightly concerned you early in here this is much much worse than I could ever imagine the worst thing of all is Alex attitude he has an attitude with you or what with me gets an attitude with himself why is he so arrogant it's a problem with him not accepting his sister and I suffer you know I love because of that yeah you know they can't work together it's a fire he hates her being anywhere near him in the restaurant whilst they're avoiding each other oh yeah I'm doing this 7:30 the kitchen is diving it's sinking quicker than the Titanic it's a solution you can't leave it all to me and I can't help you unless you start helping yourself I'll see in the morning one week after a long night of contemplating the frites main issue Kamali oh you're good Lonnie Chef Ramsay is focused on bringing this family back together I can't begin to fix this restaurant because there's so many personal problems here because nobody's opening up in front of each other I want to try something so I just want you to bear with me can we be two seconds okay please take a seat I want you to sit here watch and listen what's happening between Celine and Alex don't leave this space I'm gonna talk to the Celine how are you well yeah take your seats let's just catch up okay Oh suffer tough night last night's the treasure has been running for 38 years but the legacy is not going to continue with this kind of attitude the fragmented relationships between the families is incredible you and Alex are so disconnected how did it get to where he is today communication broke down but underneath all that deep down inside do you think Alex resents you I know how it sounds me tell me why I think that he feels like he's the older brother and he thought it this was his he thought that he was gonna be able to run it the way he wanted and his world came crashing down your relationship with your father is it different to relationship he has with Alex yeah I think that he thinks that my dad in the end loved me more for some reason we just talked about you oh yeah why are you just explaining to Alex what you just explained to me so we used to be very close then I think that you're bitter towards a lot of things you've got a lot of resentment I don't know if it's only towards me if it's towards other things I don't see you wanting to to come here you felt like he was gonna give you the restaurant I felt like you know I was losing not only the passion and the pride but the the whole aspect of the restaurant I still have that uneasy feeling like do I belong I put that wall up yes I did I can't do my doctor said if I can't do it alone me you know that you know that [Music] I'm not even hurt you anyway it was the first time that I got to look at you in the eyes and knowing that you're serious about the separation between my sister and I definitely wasn't working and she made me you know realize we need to get unionized and we need to get together with each other and work together I want to do you [Music] I love her and of course we're gonna work together excited but we thought you hated me probably you know hard you're a big brother for God's sake we gotta figure out a way to talk again we used to talk we used to that's practice this feels incredible it's most important thing for the restaurant that my brother and I to be family ever for us to get them all first love each other let me leave you guys for couple minutes on your own thank you okay I guess I'm fresh yeah the walls kind of came down which is exactly what needed to happen for this family she definitely showed me that we need to respect each other and that the respect for each other is what's gonna make the free succeed if we can continue the legacy and continue the heartbeat of love free you've got an amazing son and daughter there that are desperately at this place right ah yes that's one thing I really want is our three to communicate or talk to each other you know it was hurting me it's one step at a time yeah that's it oh I was what you don't [Music] every time we were meeting it was involved you are not talking to each other both of you are going off to work with each other and listen all three of us are in charge and we should sit down any time we have a decision we need to go one way where everybody who worked together we have seen a big step on the communication i just opened because my fingers and it's going to old [Music] after a breakthrough emotional meeting between Alex and Celine are longer and of course we're in or together Chef Ramsay is now ready to start implementing some changes gone is the 20 year old desert case that sat in the middle of the dining room cheese's and in its place a contemporary crepe station there you go

trying to get everything fired and three we're gonna crop myself while the kitchen struggles to push out food there you go thank you customers who ordered the crepes are thrilled with what they are receiving as for the old menu its disappointment after disappointment it's disheartening to see how much food was wasted time I literally feel like we're you know back to square one so organized it's all to see you played yeah you were the only voice of reason I could actually understand so they're gonna listen you understand it's really obvious guys in the kitchen chef Martine continues to ignore Celine flip that baby butt in the dining room Alex is a new man pretty darn good huh I'm getting my routine here he's energetic and working hard to satisfy customers any way he can including making delicious satisfying crepes let's be honest we all know where the problem is Celine the head chef is not acting as bad chef and watching the food come out properly for every crap dish they send out it's closing that door quicker I have seen what you have seen I have seen some stuff which I don't like they need a leader they need a better leader you would need that without that they can't respect us that's the angel room in there if that's not firing on all cylinders we're screwed understand what I've said tomorrow I want each every one of you to get ready for some major changes coming up

take yes okay tonight we are relaunching left reads new restaurant new menu more portly a United Family with a brand new attitude to put this restaurant on the map really this is one of the most important worries on my mind last night there was a glaring problem your kitchen was nowhere near strong enough to relaunch this restaurant so I made a few phone calls and I found a secret weapon
