Well then, one of the hoteliers has dared to tell her experience during recording via TikTok. Lourdes, owner and cook of Los Cinco Sentios (Coslada, Madrid), just eight months after the format was broadcast.
“Three months before, they call you every other day. They know your entire life. He is an editor, he knows how to ask you questions, and then you tell him a little about your whole life. They know where to bite you. There is no script as such, but it is true that behind every waiter there is an editor: ‘You go, do this, you do that…’”says on the profile channel Cenando con Pablo.
Tricks to destabilize
Lourdes, by her words, is also sure that the editors use tricks to destabilize the restaurant staff and not do their job well. “Us We operate through a PDA and, suddenly, they put a truck there and it no longer works. They put a frequency inhibitor on you and I am convinced. They left and it started to work,” she reveals.
A stick in the wheels that also suggests that they did with the commands. “Duplicate notes came to me. I told him: ‘I have already made this note’, and he told me: ‘It’s impossible.’ They took notes from me, I turned around and they put four or five on me”.
His son, Borja, also tells what the experience was like: “There was a moment when they told me to grab him by the chest and take him outside, they got annoying with you.” “They told Quique (Lourdes’ husband) to go outside, to leave, and to pretend to leave,” adds Lourdes.
The anecdote
Quique, precisely, He seems very angry when telling an anecdote. Apparently, part of the recording was not filmed correctly and both Chicote and the editors had to return to their restaurant to repeat the take. Since it was already renovated, they had to film outside, and, furthermore, the cook wanted to try the prawns, which were no longer on the menu. Quique then bought them only for that moment, “at 100 euros per kilo,” and the presenter emphasized while he tried them that they were not of quality.
