I've got 60 sat already. I need to turn these tables over.

So we're looking at 120 covers tonight. So I need you and your lot

to pull your finger out and work hard. But not loud, because

last night, they were really noisy and you could hear them on

the other side of the restaurant.

Chef, it's your name above the door. Customers are coming

for your food, they want to talk to you and I can't find you. I couldn't

find you the other day.If I'm not in the kitchen, I'll be in the back.

It's busy, you should be there. I have to make the rotas out.

When it's busy, you should be in there and available.I'm always in

the kitchen.Someone complained about the food the other day.No-one

complains about the food, who's complained?It doesn't matter!

No-one complains about the food. You're talking shit!Chef?Yeah.

Do us a favour?Yeah.Can you keep an eye on that, please?

All right, lad. All right. How long?Two minutes.OK.

Thanks, boss.Right, where are we? What's happening?Where are we?

We're fucking smashing it, pal. Table 17 - two mackerel,

four mallard. Table four - one lamb, two mallard.

Table ten - two mallard. They're almost done. Table five -

one mallard, one lamb. Help us with the lamb, please, if you wouldn't

mind, kind sir!Of course.Thank you very much.No problem, lad.

Tell me, what's that bitch mouthing on about?Oh, it's bullshit.

It's nothing. She hasn't got a clue. She thinks she's Paris Hilton.

Well, she ain't. She might have a box like Paris Hilton, but that's

where it fucking ends.Moaning about a noise in the kitchen.

The noise in the kitchen?Yeah.Does she not know what we're creating?

Exactly.Fucking pieces of artwork here. Me and you, bossing it.

She wants us to keep turning the tables over.

Well, it's too fucking busy, then, isn't it?Exactly.

Stupid bitch!Chef?

Yep.Would you mind tasting that for me and seeing if it's OK?

Well, get me a spoon, then, eh?
