Chef Borghese, I come back with 4 restaurants and I trust in the second half

"I have 60 people in layoffs, but I can't afford to come down out of respect for their families. I am convinced that when you return to normal restaurants, you will need to book in advance, we will return to queue in some places, the more people's desire to have a dinner outside the home. I'm not worried about the level or starred ones who already have not close positions, but the trattorias, the family-run ones, the places where you went every evening to be in company, it will be more difficult observe the distancing ". In times of Coronavirus and of restaurants still closed (decisions for phase 2 are awaited), it may seem inappropriate to go on the air with a cooking program, but Alessandro Borghese chef loved by the public TV must be said is the exception to the rule, with his 4 Restaurants, with the sixth season the cooking show returns from Thursday 23 April 2020 on Sky Uno and NOW TV in the early evening (9.15 pm) after the preview with The Jackal, the popular youtubers who had fun with him at overturn roles. Borghese, over the years has been able to create an unfailing habit and to transform simple restaurateurs into fierce competitors of a challenge, with the indispensable report card to be drawn up at the end of the meal in search of the coveted "ten". "I always say this to the owners of the restaurants where we go, since you have been chosen you have won, then it is up to you to play it well with seriousness, otherwise luck does not knock twice, and whoever jokes with fire then burns ". It is no coincidence that there are people who make tours of the restaurants visited by Borghese when they travel. All those participating in the program are identifiable through a "stamp" exposed outside. In the first episode of the original Sky production made by Banijay Italia, the evocative theater of contention is Venice, "We abandoned our van, it was recorded a few days before the flood - he remembers - which hit Venice last November 12. This event we were so impressed that we decided to organize, with the Mayor of the city and Confindustria, a dinner to raise funds to support the municipality and local restaurateurs ". But how do you think Borghese can go back to dinner outside with masks gloves the distancing? "meanwhile I trust, for those who have the possibility, in the arrival of summer with outdoor tables. The distancing, I believe, will also be organized in the kitchens. The story of the masks frankly worries me, I myself who have my business are used to going to the tables to inform me several times if everything is fine, I don't have the magic sphere to look to the future ". She should have started filming the new season "we stopped waiting for them to inform us when we will be able to start again because we usually turn in these months. Then I wait for indications once unlocked what we can and cannot do, a little frightens me but we will stick ".
The mechanism of the challenge has been unchanged for years and it is what made Borghese's fortune thanks to a good dose of self-irony: four restaurateurs from the same area of ​​origin compete to establish who among them is the best in a given category. Each restaurateur invites the other three to dinner and, accompanied by the Chef, they comment and vote with a score from 0 to 10 location, menu, service and account of the restaurant that hosts them. Up for grabs for the winner of each episode, the title of best restaurant and an economic contribution to invest in your business. Each dinner is preceded by the scrupulous inspection of the chef Borghese of the restaurant kitchen. An inspection that during the course of the dinner will focus on the dining room staff, tested on reception, table service, description of the dish and the wine. It is only at the end that the judgment of chef Borghese is discovered who with his votes can confirm or overturn the entire ranking that rewards the best restaurant of the episode. In addition, Alessandro has a 5 point bonus. How do you live this quarantine at home? "As a privileged, surrounded by women, a wonderful wife, two adorable daughters, whom I see every day, there are almost never, always around, and a nice mother-in-law". What diet do you recommend? "It's been a week for a while, don't ask me I looked in the mirror and I was frightened the imprisonment makes bad jokes, but not sleeping and watching everything on TV until 3 am ... bad example, but are in sharp decline now, when I decide ... ".
