Gordon quotes from Hell's Kitchen

"Kyle is everything I want in a head chef and more. Along with incredible charisma, he brings his expertise, passion, and creativity every time he enters the kitchen. He's going to be a great asset at Hell's Kitchen Foxwoods Resort and Casino."

"New Yorkers may be tough, but properly cooked salmon shouldn't be. Maddy is gone because she wasn't able to figure that out."

"Here's the story of Elaina and Paul. They couldn't cook their proteins at all. They fell on the fish and meat and led their teams to defeat and now their jackets will hang on my wall."

"After another poor performance from the chef from the Bayou, the only thing left to say to Bradley is good-bye you."

"If silence were golden, Antonio would be a wealthy man. Unfortunately at Hell's Kitchen, it doesn't pay to be quiet."

"Jon may be from the Peach State, but there was nothing peachy about his performance tonight."

"Even as a vegan chef, Cara Marie could cook proteins beautifully. Ironically, tonight it was the vegetables that did her in."

"I never want to see the competition spirit turning into something negative, so I admire Alexandra for having a voice against bullying. I just wish her ability in the kitchen had been equally strong."

"As a culinary instructor, Chris brings out the best in others, but tonight's service didn't bring out the best in him. I hope he finds his footing in New Jersey and keeps inspiring others."

"Jayden was the first person in 24 seasons to drop a dish during a challenge. Then he dropped the ball during service, so I dropped him out of the competition."

"Delaware might be known as the first state, but unfortunately, after tonight's service, Anaiya will be known as fifth place."

"Lisa's cooking shined as bright as the Golden State. But to win the gold medal in this competition, you need to show true leadership skill, and not just culinary talent."

"Ellie's brilliant final dinner service tonight confirmed for me that she is the absolute right choice for my next head chef. She's decisive, confident, resilient, and she has proven that she can overcome obstacles. She is a natural-born leader. The state of Nevada should be very proud of their representative. Ellie is going to be invaluable as my next head chef here at Hell's Kitchen Foxwoods Resort and Casino."

I'm Gordon Ramsay. Welcome to Hell's Kitchen. [on Andrew's dish] Whose is this?

Andrew, Chef Ramsay.

Andrew, step forward. And what is it?

It's called Andrew's Absolute Penne.

Andrew's Absolute Penne.

Correct.

[takes a taste of the dish and spits it out] That... is absolute dog shit. Have a little taste.

[tastes the dish] Could use some salt.

You think you're smart, yeah?

I have my moments.

And how long have you been cooking?

About ten years.

What a waste of ten years. Get back in fucking line.

First name?

Blueberry?

Dewberry.

Oh, Dewberry. Bloody hell, I'm not sure which is worse.
