Gordon Ramsay Gears Up to Serve More ‘Idiot Sandwiches’ in New ‘Kitchen Nightmares’ Sneak Peek [Exclusive]

After heading back on the road after Super Bowl LIX, Gordon Ramsay is returning to The Big Easy in this week’s episode of Kitchen Nightmares, and this time, he’s facing one of his most hopeless cases ever. The latest episode to be set in New Orleans as part of this special Super Bowl-inspired season takes Gordon to The Verdict, which is “a restaurant known for serving traditional New Orleans cuisine with a modern and trendy twist.” But the establishment is currently going through some internal struggles, as rising tensions between the kitchen and front-of-house staff, combined with family feuds and a rapidly increasing debt have left The Verdict in dire straits. Enter Chef Ramsay, who tries to offer his support, even if he meets just a bit of resistance.

Collider is delighted to present an exclusive sneak peek at the latest episode, and it’s a fiery one. In our first look at the episode, Gordon takes his life into his own hands by heading into the refrigerator of the restaurant and forces him to start praying for divine intervention by what he finds inside it. After finding some meat that might have been fresh pre-COVID, he tells the owner and her mother to take a sniff of it. Only for the mother to find nothing wrong with it! She banishes him from the kitchen and flips him off before leaving. There’s denial, and then there’s this. As is ever the case, Chef Ramsay isn’t just dealing with a restaurant that’s on its last legs, but a family on the brink of collapse, and when the chef of the restaurant won’t take responsibility for the mess they’re in, then it’s very big trouble ahead.

What Has ‘Kitchen Nightmares’ Been Up To This Season?

The entirety of the first half briefly retitled with the Road to Super Bowl LIX subtitle, was set in and around New Orleans, Louisiana, the home of this year’s match-up between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Philadelphia Eagles, which was also being shown on FOX — some nice, easy synergy there. Ramsay went around some of NOLA’s restaurants to make sure none of the fans went home with food poisoning, which we are sure everybody was immensely grateful for.

Kitchen Nightmares returns with Season 9, Episode 7 tonight on FOX. Episodes are available the day after on Hulu. Check out our exclusive sneak peek in the player above.
