  Alastair Skye : Yeah, I see you've added the red chicory, so that's different.

• Andy Jones : [about Alastair dining at Andy's restaurant]  No, well, we're not prepped properly. If I'd have known, I could've got everything ready. Do you know what I mean?

  Beth : You should have everything ready, Andy. You should have everything ready every night.

  Andy Jones : But you should've told me when you find these things out. You should let me know. That's what you're supposed to do.

  Beth : I don't have time to have this...

  Andy Jones : If we have people coming in, you should let me know.

  Beth : I've just told you then.

  Andy Jones : I used to work for the man. Do you know what I mean? So I need to be prepped and ready for him.

  Beth : Good, well then he's gonna like what you're gonna do, yeah. He's gonna like your food. It's fine. Don't worry about it.

• Sara Southworth : He's making out like it's his first time to see this, but he was pouring over the menu in the car on his phone.

  Alastair Skye : Mate, you don't go and see Chelsea without looking at the team sheet, do you? So you don't go to see your chef's restaurant without having a look at the menu.

  Andy Jones : Without picking the menu apart.

• Alastair Skye : This place is great, okay? But it isn't making a fucking penny because you don't have a business mind. I do. Youse do it. You do what you do in there and let me do what I do out here. We split it. Okay? 70-30.

  Andy Jones : I can't do that.

  Alastair Skye : Why?

  Andy Jones : I've got other partners.

  Alastair Skye : You've got 30 percent to split any way you fucking like. Alright? 30 percent of a lot is a lot. Okay? Agree to this and it won't just be Sarah giving you good reviews, you'll get good reviews from everyone in town. Please, I need this.
