"I have to say Thursday nights are becoming a little tough for me. Not only do I want to tune into Kitchen Nightmares, I&amp;#039;m also a fan of The Office, and Survivor, which air on different networks. Out of the five hours of Thursday night TV that I wanted to catch, I thought that (given the promo) Kitchen Nightmares would be the most dramatic ending ever! Yeah, right. This time Gordon returned to New York City (yet again) to visit the Black Pearl, a seafood shack serving lobster rolls and clam chowder year round. I ate at the Black Pearl about 5 years ago on a blind date. I took one look at the date and the Black Pearl and knew it was no match. I usually know every restaurant within a 10 minute walk from my apartment, but Black Pearl, I did not know. As a food writer that usually means: It cannot be good. Back then, the Black Pearl was a whole other incarnation. However, one thing it had in common with the present day (pre-Gordon) Black Pearl is bad food, and overpriced at that. If I were chef Ramsay, I would&amp;#039;ve walked out after one look at Black Pearl owner David. Making a grand entrance, David thought he looked super cool with his leopard scarf, jet-black hair, dark sunglasses, and long overcoat. Listen up! No one is cooler than chef Gordon Ramsay. The biggest mistake you can make is to try to out-cool Gordon! At least take some fashion cues from the king of cool.  Gordon is understated. He&amp;#039;s not about flash. Gordon wears designer jeans, but nothing with glaring name-brands. Gordon does wear black, but he&amp;#039;s not dressed for a funeral. Usually a simple sporty black jacket paired a v-neck sweater and white tee.  Gordon would never wear a leopard scarf! Not in million years.   Beyond bad fashion sense, owner David had a smart aleck response to everything Gordon asked including why his Maine lobsters were actually from Canada. Hey, if you don&amp;#039;t have fashion sense, at least have common sense. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
