I thought the TV show was a joke. What made a supposed chef think that mediocre Italian food served, at least some dishes, in paper boats would fly in NY? And Rocco had to be the single worst people manager I've ever seen. His staff was a bunch of whiney, incompotent, hysterical losers I've ever seen assembled in one place and the few times I watched it the resturant seemed incapable of delivering a single meal as ordered.
" I watched it the resturant seemed incapable of delivering a single meal as ordered."
The utter lack of professionalism, combined with the arrogance and self-assurance of these people, made me wonder where they scraped them up from - example: when the three chefs decided to "stick it to" Rocco and not show up, claiming that one of them was in the hospital. Well, that might have been a clever joke if it hadn't been on NATIONAL TELEVISION!! I doubt if any of them could get a job at Quiznos now.
