He also brings his sharp critique to his Twitter account, where his followers often ask for his expert opinion on the meals they’ve created themselves.
His prowess in the kitchen obvious, it seemed like he’d never feel what it’s like to be reprimanded for a sub-par dish himself; however, a short clip recently emerged online featuring the time when exactly that happened.
Originally broadcast back in 2009, the scene from Season 5 of his TV show “The F Word” is now making the rounds on social media.
