Quarantined Chef Makes Meal with Hotel Room Appliances!

Dec 07, 2020

We have a new internet sensation today and he is a young chef. He is trending as he made meals with some basic hotel room appliances while quarantining in Canada. Even celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay, of Hell’s Kitchen fame, reacted to his video and praised him for his resourcefulness.

Cornishman Jago Randles, has become a TikTok sensation for his videos in which he creates restaurant-level gourmet meals using just electrical appliances available in his room during his isolation.

His videos were viewed in millions and got many likes, one of them also attracted the attention of the hard-to-please chef Gordon Ramsay.

The multi-Michelin star chef, in a duet video which he dubbed as “DYI room service”, wrote: “This looks better than many dishes I’ve had in Hotels!”

As Randles cooked an egg and then some asparagus in a coffee percolator as well as a chicken breast on an iron, it got off to a rocky start with Hell Kitchen’s chef urging to add salt. However, as it progressed, Ramsay was heard in the video saying: “To be honest that looks like some decent food, certainly some of the best food I’ve seen in any hotel.”

His meals are not only egg on toast or cup noodles but gastronomic feasts including salmon with rice vermicelli and steamed bok choy and ‘sous vide’ bacon-wrapped chicken with a mushroom cream sauce! He even makes a crème brûlée using a tiny whisk.

He was quarantined for two weeks at the Gec Granville Suites Hotel in Vancouver after arriving in Canada to cook at a mountain resort in Whistler, British Columbia.

The hotel also shared many of Randles “creative meals” on their Instagram page and added: “We actually have kitchenette suites with stovetops, so you don‘t have to use the iron and coffee maker to cook your food”.

“I was in the hotel room and I thought, ‘What if I could try cooking bacon on the iron?’ because I wanted a bacon sandwich,” he told on how it all started. Randles added that he started the series because he was very bored quarantining alone.

“A lot of the time I would be either just wanting to eat or be thinking about what food I could cook next and what I could cook well on an iron, because I didn’t have an awful lot else to do other than watch TV. It kept me quite entertained, to be honest,
