If Gordon Ramsay came to Portland

While watching the quite entertaining Ramsay’s Kitchen Nightmares on BBC America last night the inevitable “What if?” came to mind. What if Gordon Ramsay, loudmouth ex- futboler, honoree of 12 Michelin stars and host of Fox’s aspiring chef bitchslap Hell’s Kitchen (I’m pulling for Petrozza), worked his magic on one of PDX’s dining establishments?

Which local eatery would you pick for a one week makeover by the UK’s turnaround master? Sorry, Mark Lindsay’s Rock & Roll Cafe and Venue don’t count.

Pho Green Papaya on SE MLK. Until a month ago, pretty damn good food. Now, new management, wretched.

I too am a Petrozza fan. I like that he’s not a total asshole.

Greek Cusina anyone?

Oh god Pho Green Papaya! WTF? Mona (other tinymeater) waited 45 minutes for lunch after the ownership change. That place used to be “spot on”. What a shame!

How about the PDC blaming Hannah Bea’s Poundcake on MLK? It’s certainly worth a turnaround. Here’s her WWeek rant from this week’s issue.
