Gordon Ramsay wasn’t impressed when he headed to one of Jersey Shore’s most iconic hotspot to critique it for Kitchen Nightmares.
The top chef headed to Max’s Bar and Grill in Long Branch, owned by Jennifer Maybaum. She still works with her ex-husband Jake and his girlfriend MK, taking over the business after the death of her father Bobby in 2013. But despite its 95-year history, Gordon immediately wasn’t impressed.
He went as far as spitting out his first bite of the bar’s famous hot dog, the Barney, branding it “gross” – and then did the same thing with the Chicago hot dog. The mac and cheese bites were slammed for “hardly having any mac and cheese [in] at all”, while Gordon fumed over the nachos for having “no seasoning with cheese that’s not even properly melted”.

Things went from bad to worse as Gordon confronted the tense atmosphere between the staff, telling the gathered employees that the business is “spiralling out of control” and fumed about the lack of “team spirit”. It all ended in Jennifer and MK at each other’s throats.

Thankfully, Gordon didn’t give up on the restaurant as a lost cause, and worked on fully rehashing the menu ready for a grand reopening. Alongside his old Hell’s Kitchen co-star Chef James Avery, Ramsay promised to return for the restaurant’s 100th anniversary if it continues its progress.
It comes just a month after Ramsay welcomed his sixth child with his wife Tana – confessing that he’s “done” now. The pair welcomed a son, who they named Jesse James.
In a sweet social media post, he penned: “What an amazing birthday present please welcome Jesse James Ramsay, 7lbs 10oz whopper!! One more bundle of love to the Ramsay brigade!! 3 boys, 3 girls…. Done.”

Tana gushed: “It’s been a nerve wracking 9 months but we’ve made it and we have been blessed with this little bundle. Ramsay family definitely complete. Jesse James Ramsay we love you so much.”
The star shares daughters Megan, 25, Holly, 23, and Tilly, 22, along with sons Jack, 23, Oscar, four and now Jesse with his wife.
Gordon, 57, has spoken about being an older parent after continuing to expand his brood, with Tana giving birth at 49. He admitted on the Dish podcast: “I’m going to be the oldest f****r at school. ‘Who’s your grandad?’ and what about sports day, and the egg and spoon race? What am I going to do?

“I’m going to be at school celebrating sports day with a f***ing walker! So I’m not sure how many knee hip replacements they’ll get by the time they get to 21, but I’m going to try.”
He joked to Entertainment Tonight that the experience was “really extraordinary, just blessed”, adding: “I’m also sure I’ll be the oldest dad at the drop-off at school, so I’ll keep my cap and glasses on.”
