In 2007, he appeared in the third season of the Fox reality show Hell’s Kitchen.

Hell’s Kitchen is an American reality food competition show that debuted on Fox on May 30, 2005. Celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay, who originated and starred in the British series of the same name, hosts the show. During each season, two teams of chefs compete for the position of head chef in a restaurant while working in the kitchen of a restaurant put up in the television studio.
Over the course of each season, a progressive elimination method reduces a field of 20 to 12 contenders to a single winner.
