Watch Gordon Ramsay Help Struggling CT Restaurant On TV Tonight

SEYMOUR, CT — Just weeks after an episode of celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay's reality show "24 Hours to Hell and Back" featuring a remodeled Waterbury restaurant aired, a new episode showcasing another Connecticut eatery is set to air tonight.

According to their Facebook page, the episode featuring Stone's Throw Restaurant in Seymour is set to air on FOX at 8 p.m. The restaurant will also host a viewing party for anyone who wants to watch the episode at the restaurant and see the changes made ahead of time.

While Ramsay is probably most well-know for his heated temper on the FOX reality cooking competition "Hell's Kitchen," he is also known for his work attempting to save struggling restaurants in front of the camera on his show "Kitchen Nightmares," which ran from 2007 to 2014.

In that show, Ramsay would spend a week with a restaurant while attempting to fix its shortcomings. "24 Hours to Hell and Back" features a similar premise with one major difference: as the name suggests, he only has 24 hours to turn things around.

Ramsay visited the restaurant in October, which is right around the same time he visited Vasi's Taverna in Waterbury. In order to dine undercover, Ramsay was disguised as an elderly woman before revealing himself and confronting the staff.

According to a press release, Ramsay's goal was to "revamp the family-owned fine dining restaurant located on the Housatonic River."

One of the changes Ramsay made was redecorating the restaurant's entrance and formal dining rooms to reflect more of a lakeside-lodge atmosphere. The menus were paired down to include some of Ramsay's specialties, as well as some original Stone's Throw recipes.

The show's hidden cameras revealed how management had let standards slide, but they also revealed that several Stone's Throw employees are cancer survivors. Seymour Pink, a local organization that unites the community in the fight against breast cancer, was a major player in the relaunch of the restaurant.

The menus currently listed on the Stone's Throw website feature both lunch and dinner options, as well as special menus for Burger & Brew Wednesdays and Sunday Jazz Brunch. The waterside eatery also offers a wide selection of craft beers, signature cocktails and wines.

Stone's Throw, located at 337 Roosevelt Drive in Seymour, is owned by Chef Peter Hamme, who has over 30 years of experience professionally satisfying palates, according to the website.

This wasn't Ramsay's first rescue mission in Connecticut. On "Kitchen Nightmares," he visited restaurants in both Stamford (season 2) and Bridgeport (season 4). Both places are now closed.

According to the show's website, "24 Hours to Hell and Back" is a series in which Ramsay tries to bring restaurants back from the brink of disaster within 24 hours through "spectacular renovations, fresh new menus and hope for the future."

The show is produced by Studio Ramsay, and was recently renewed for a second season. Ramsay, Tim Warren, Kenny Rosen, Elvia Van Es Oliva and Layla Smith serve as executive producers on the series.
