Marco Pierre White Restaurants

The worst
The worst. If Marco has been anywhere near these franchise budget hotel eateries, he should hang his head in shame. Better still, he should get his protege, Mr Ramsay, to go and give him an honest rundown on the lack of passion, or even basic hygiene and standards, being associated with his now-for-me-tarnished name / brand. The restaurant was a joke - a sad, tired breakfast room in a budget hotel, in which they serve cold microwaved drab food (the calamari), or, worse still, raw, uncooked burgers (the burger with the cold, purple centre), the like of which you don’t even get at a greasy spoon. I’d rather eat at a proper budget hotel or cafe, as it would be better than this total horrible garbage. The fact that it’s branded with a celebrity chef is either misrepresentation bordering on fraud, or, even worse, the death rattle of Marco Pierre White’s reputation. Or maybe both. It’s truly disgusting, but also really sad. What the hell happened to let this Marco association exist? Did he sell his name to a marketing company? Avoid at ALL cost. The only saving grace is that the staff (who are working in a failed system of a fallen marketing / franchise rip off) try their best in doomed circumstances. Thanks to them for at least waiving the bill for the £8 Camden Hells to wash down this awful experience
