This baldy fat arse is certainly overrated. Forever trying so hard to imitate the negro by his st*p*d hand moves. Already he looked *gly and with the pussy hair by his chin, it makes him look worse! Lousy cooking! Lousy knife skills! Always self prasing! The Boss? my foot!

First time watching AFC’s next celeb chef. I was taken aback by this bald fat chef all agitated and swearing without any reason. Then came his show The Boss where he calls his underling “monkey”, to be fair that’s his nickname, but I don’t know, maybe because he’s so disrespectful that it just came off wrong, like the guy is his pet monkey. This person needs to be taken off the air.

Bruce is just so horrible to watch. This pinoy is so arrogant. I don’t know why he is picked as judge. This guy count as experience working in Jollibeen. And so many pinoy contestants 1/3 made the cut out of 16. I smell something fishy. We all want him out. His program Boss is pathetic. I couldn’t bear even 5 minutes of tthis stupid grinning ‘chef’ so proud that he’s made a burger. What self-respecting chef would be?

I am surprised that so many people share my sentiments about Bruce Lim. I just watched AFC’s Next Celeb Chef (Yes, a bit late, I know) but I was so shocked at Bruce Lim for throwing that plate like it’s a plate of crap! But even MORE shocking was the fact that he was chosen to be a judge on the show. AFC, have you ACTUALLY seen his cooking show, The Boss?? His fake arrogance and cockiness on the show can’t even mask his poor cooking skills. And I’m sorry, but his food recipes are just – for lack of a better word – blegh. Please replace him with a better chef who holds merit and has class. Not some clown who doesn’t walk the walk or talk the talk. It makes the show very unbearable to watch!

I was utterly astonished by Chef Bruce Lim’s ugly, offensive attitude on Master Chef. The way he tossed food around and talked down to contestants without providing any constructive feedback or advice is downright disrespectful. It’s one thing to be harsh and stern to instill discipline and positive values, but what Bruce Lim’s behaviour is something else altogether. The cherry on the cake is his show The Boss, which I stumbled on for the first time yesterday. The blatant arrogance he displays, calling upon his assistant “monkey” (to which his assistant consistently replies in a sullen tone “yes Boss”) to carry out meager tasks such as stirring flour into a cake mix is completely demeaning. I would like to know what sort of message the AFC is trying to promote in airing such productions on TV. I am really disgusted, to say the least.

Bruce lim is just pure bully. Chef wan is so much more experience than you and he still respect the contestants. Calling yourself “The Boss” like seriously?! You are embarrassing the whole Philippine community..oh and you actually name your poor assistant “Monkey”. Dude, seriously?

I feel pity for the contestants. I saw he throw the dishes on the floor in front of the contestants, I got really angry, he doesnt know how to respect the contestant. Now there is a new show, the boss. I hope this is the last show of him. I hate u Bruce, u asshole. I will throw ur dish when i see u.

Rather than inspire me to cook better, fatso..oops sorry, Bruce has created a mockery of chefs & the AFC channel. Can someone at AFC stand up & say that Bruce was encouraged to be an arse just for ratings. If not, please give Bruce a kick on his ample behind out of the show & any other programs. You will be thanked for it. Do what’s right.

I am sorry but I have to agree with the DISGUST these people are feeling, take this from a FILIPINO himself!

At first when I heard about Bruce Lim, I felt proud because at least, a FILIPINO chef is making his way internationally known. But I was DISGUSTED on how he acts in his shows NEXT CELEBRITY CHEF and THE BOSS…

Man, who are you to ACT like that?! Throwing PLATES all the time?? Even the great GORDON RAMSAY does not do that TOO OFTEN. I have been watching Hells Kitchen for years now, and I can only count the times he throws food, he breaks PLATES sometimes, but HELLS KITCHEN is HIS restaurant anyways! AND, given the CALIBER of Gordon Ramsay, he can act arrogant all he want because he already PROVED something.

I have no problem with people being arrogant as long as they have something to BRAG about, but I cannot stand people like YOU who acts so arrogant yet has nothing to BRAG about. Who are YOU to throw plates at aspiring chefs ALL THE time? Shame on you! Do that after you acquired 5 Michelin Star restaurants and we can SHUT UP.

You are the most arrogant FILIPINO chef I have ever known! I hope all FILIPINO chefs are like Boy Logro or Gene Gonzales, they have proven themselves yet doesn’t have the ARROGANCE you have.

In behalf of millions of Filipinos, SHAME ON YOU!

Lim is a pure and simple fat filipino bully. The guy is on a total power trip and its just embarassing to watch that AFC show anymore. How can the producers let him carry on with all the swearing, plate & table throwing?? Gordon Ramsey is the king of that and he can get away with it due to the fact that he can carry it off without degrading people. The guy is supposed to be helping the chefs learn not constantly knocking them down, is it any wonder that the 5 chefs left are all pretty average at best, i can never see any of them becoming a “celebrity chef” and maybe Lim is embarassed by the fact considering he is Asian too. He is an embarassment to Asian culture and if i was a chef on that programme i would have punched his lights out as soon as he opened his big fat mouth.

I have written to AFC and complained about Bruce Lim’s obviously fake behavior and pandering to the camera, desperately hoping to be taken seriously like his idol, Gordon Ramsay.

All of you should e-mail Asian Food Channel and complain about him as well. I want him removed from the channel.

bruce behaves like a bully that is VERY insecure with himself. I will not watch any show he is on. His behaviour is disrespectful to others and himself. The constant negativity and childish outbursts are boriing. I have NO respect for anything he says or does. I’m using my remote to vote. No thank you to bratty behaviour. CLICK! channel changed!

I have caught up with the reality series and I too hated the sight of Bruce lim. I personally think he can’t cook for nuts and fail to delivery the class of any celebrity chefs. Definitely won’t be trying any of his cooking!

Wow my goodness. Just watched last night’s episode of the challenge where they were supposed to do a cooking segment in front of the camera. My goodness shame on you Bruce! You act like a child and bring disgrace to the E&O show. 90% of the time you are negative and when you try to give criticisms, its never constructive…rather its personally meant to bring down the contestants. That is lousy leadership.

Honestly, grow up and you should be taken off any television. Just downright awful to watch you.

sigh

First of all i would like to say…PLS bruce, have some self respect and also pls respect the contestants. You are a lousy chef, you are arrogant and you have no merit. Your own show is crap, your food and cooking skill is so bad its a big joke. You are unpleasant to look at and pls lose some weight. Am sure you are a nicer person in real life but your insecurities sure show through the cracks. Ugh so ugly.

So you don’t deserve to put on a show and treat other ppl like how you were treated as a commis or whatever. No one respects you. In fact…you’re laughed at. Its embarrassing to see you on the AFC channel and for E&O…you guys have made a huge mistake taking him on as a judge. Awful. You bring down the image of all the other judges….. esp saxon….who is already weak.

Learn some respect and and gain some merit to be able to judge. For now…you just hit it lucky. And you bully your own philipino contestants. Its just down right ugly.

Please please someone, anyone replace Bruce Lim, he’s terrible. Have you seen the “Boss”? I couldn’t even get through one episode without wanting to throw something at the tv. What are his credentials anyway?

Quoted from Christian’s facebook page: “I am a firm believer that you cannot please everyone and if you are busy trying to you may lose your soul. I am all for negative comments and constructive criticism as it makes us stronger. I personally try to avoid the practice of criticism and steer towards constructive encouragement.

I don’t believe that bullying, yelling, swearing, throwing plates on the floor, complaining that sashimi is raw, complaining spring dishes are like summer dishes and trying to be Gordon Ramsay would make people better.

We work hard, put our heads down and put out our very best dishes under the circumstances and for that, I commend and applaud each and everyone of my fellow contestants. The circumstances were rough and for sure sometimes our dishes may not have translated but bare in mind, some dishes rocked this planet.

It was an honour to cook alongside you all.”

We are with you Christian! So happy that someone stood up that worthless excuse for a Chef!

The show should be renamed “E&O’s search for Bruce Lim’s next bitch”.

I believe this is a contest to find creativity and star personality among a group of hopeful contestants. And yet, this big bully of a ‘judge’ constantly dominates over them, turning this search for talent into no more than a bootcamp for contestants desperate enough to put up with his pissy antics. A little contrary no? Lose the ego “bro”.

PS, watch his show “The Boss” and notice how his assistant “monkey” looks so totally repressed and sullen. Probably got raped prison-style by The Boss one time too many.
