Hell’s Kitchen Season 10 Coverage: Coming Back for Seconds

Madam, would you care for a scallop shake, extra thick, with that episode of “Hell’s Kitchen?” Yup, scallops, temper tantrums and more abound in episode two of “Hell’s Kitchen.”

After being woken up by a rap group the chefs are taken outside where they are greeted by two mounds of ice. Ramsey informs them that due to all the scallops they threw out last night they need to look for all 125 scallops in each mound. Not even two seconds in and Royce has a scallop fly up to his nose and cut him. Maybe it’s divine judgment for all the bad scallops last night?

After that wet mess, the chefs must now go into pairs and shuck, clean and cook six perfect scallop dishes. This is one of the best ideas Ramsey has ever had because scallops are always on Hell’s Kitchen’s menu. It’s a total replay of last night where the Red Team is doing well and the Blue Team is doing everything wrong. It goes 5-0 Red when the Blue finally get two right. It’s all in vain because the Red get their sixth and a win.

The Red Team get a trip to Catalina Island on a yacht while the Blue Team has to clean up the mess outside and clean prawns. They are also treated to blended scallops, nice and thick. They seem to take it well enough.

While the Blue are “enjoying” their shakes, the Red are ziplining. Is it cruel to laugh at Rashi for getting stuck in the middle of the line and hearing her yell “oh my god”?

At dinner service every guy on the Blue Team has a bandana on. They looked ready to not repeat last night’s debacle and prove to Ramsey they can cook. Or not. Their dinner service starts off with Don burning a pizza on top and leaving it raw on the bottom. Now that’s impressive. Brian, who is doing table side service serving shrimp scampi, serves one raw and the other overcooked on the same table. Their inability to cook scallops continue when Chris is deciding whether to cook four portions of scallops in four pans or in two. Either way, he burns them, causing an irate Ramsey to force everyone on the team to eat all of them. The last Straw comes from an overcooked steak and they’re thrown out.

The Red don’t fare well either. It starts off with Brianna making her risottos three different colors. We also get to see this season’s Red Team whipping girl: Barbie. She destroys two portions of scallops and, due to her not cooperating everyone, causes an entire order consisting of bass and lamb to be overcooked and undercooked in that order. She’s no Elise, it’s just she does not talk to everyone. Barbie causes the Red to get thrown out too when she destroys another scallop dish.

Saying Tiffany is mad is an understatement. She looked like she wanted to kill Barbie.

Both teams had to choose two people for elimination. Red chose Barbie (of course) and Rashni due to nobody else being horrible that night. The Blue choose Royce and Chris. The reactions on the Red Team when Chris was eliminated were priceless.

The Blue Team can’t cook and the Red Teams hate Barbie. Just another season of “Hell’s Kitchen” and another reason people come back for seconds. At this point nobody is good enough to be executive chef for Ramsey. Hey, miracles can happen Hell’s Kitchen.
