0:00:02 > 0:00:05It's great to be back. My name's Matilda.
0:00:05 > 0:00:06ALL: Tilly!
0:00:06 > 0:00:08But people call me Tilly!
0:00:09 > 0:00:13- Tilly, flat!- Tilly! - I'm crazy about cooking.
0:00:13 > 0:00:15Mm!
0:00:15 > 0:00:19- Deliciousness! Om Nom. - Mad to mess about...
0:00:21 > 0:00:24And I've got the most embarrassing family ever!
0:00:24 > 0:00:26ALL: Says who?
0:00:26 > 0:00:27Is it true you have a boyfriend?
0:00:27 > 0:00:29WHAT?
0:00:30 > 0:00:32"Says who?"
0:00:32 > 0:00:34You're so annoying! Dad's the chef.
0:00:34 > 0:00:36Matilda, where's the frying pan, please?
0:00:36 > 0:00:39- But I've taken over the kitchen in this house.- What are you doing?
0:00:39 > 0:00:42- I'm looking for a frying pan. Tilly?- Tilly rules, OK?
0:00:42 > 0:00:46- Your dad's a genius! - What?- Your dad's a genius!
0:00:46 > 0:00:47I came up with this...
0:00:49 > 0:00:50CAR BEEPS
0:00:52 > 0:00:57I'm in sunny Los Angeles, cooking my heart out.
0:00:57 > 0:00:59This looks amazing.
0:00:59 > 0:01:02And writing on my food blog.
0:01:02 > 0:01:05Today, the Ramsay bunch are on the move.
0:01:05 > 0:01:09We're heading out of California and into the Nevada Desert to
0:01:09 > 0:01:11experience something out of this world.
0:01:13 > 0:01:18Las Vegas is such an incredible city. It's big, bright and brash
0:01:18 > 0:01:21with shining lights and neon everywhere.
0:01:21 > 0:01:23It calls itself the entertainment capital of the world
0:01:23 > 0:01:26and we're going to train with one of the best shows here.
0:01:26 > 0:01:28I can't wait.
0:01:30 > 0:01:32You're going to roll backwards like a backflip.
0:01:35 > 0:01:38So the big question is, what's the hardest to pull off?
0:01:43 > 0:01:45And while I'm here in Las Vegas, I'm going
0:01:45 > 0:01:48to be cooking three delicious circus sliders.
0:01:50 > 0:01:54And I'll be learning how to make a classic American Mac and Cheese.
0:01:58 > 0:02:00But first, we're off to the circus.
0:02:01 > 0:02:04With nearly 70 performers from all over the world,
0:02:04 > 0:02:08Cirque du Soleil is one of the most extraordinary shows on the planet.
0:02:13 > 0:02:16Us Ramsays can't resist a challenge, so Jack, Meg
0:02:16 > 0:02:21and I have wangled our way backstage to learn an amazing bungee stunt.
0:02:21 > 0:02:27- Hello!- Hi, Jack. Nice to meet you. - All right guys.- Safety first.
0:02:27 > 0:02:28Harness fitting.
0:02:28 > 0:02:30We don't take any chances.
0:02:30 > 0:02:32We don't make any mistakes.
0:02:32 > 0:02:34Bungee artists fly and bounce up
0:02:34 > 0:02:37to 13 metres into the air.
0:02:37 > 0:02:40So, these harnesses have got to fit us perfectly.
0:02:43 > 0:02:45How does that feel?
0:02:45 > 0:02:47Feels...quite weird but comfy.
0:02:47 > 0:02:50- Feels just like sitting on the couch, right?- Yeah.
0:02:52 > 0:02:54- You guys all set to get going? - JACK: Can't wait.
0:02:54 > 0:02:57All right, let's get you set up into bungees.
0:03:01 > 0:03:03- Oh, Meg!- Meg!
0:03:05 > 0:03:08Bungee artists use trapezes to launch themselves from.
0:03:11 > 0:03:15And two giant rubber bands attached to their harnesses help them
0:03:15 > 0:03:18to do their incredible acrobatic stunts.
0:03:19 > 0:03:23Once these bungee cords are all set, we're going hoist them up into
0:03:23 > 0:03:27the air until you can bounce up and you can reach the trapeze up there.
0:03:29 > 0:03:30All the way up there?
0:03:31 > 0:03:34'That must be nearly ten metres high. Scary!'
0:03:36 > 0:03:39You're going to get a taste of what it's like to start
0:03:39 > 0:03:44training like a Cirque du Soleil performer. How to do the basics.
0:03:44 > 0:03:49The first challenge is to get used to bouncing on these bungees,
0:03:49 > 0:03:50then learn how to do a flip.
0:03:52 > 0:03:56All right, now start to pull your feet up towards you. There you go!
0:03:56 > 0:03:57You all right, Till?
0:04:00 > 0:04:01Woohoo!
0:04:06 > 0:04:07- Yay!- Nice, Tills!
0:04:08 > 0:04:11The second trick is to reach the trapeze
0:04:11 > 0:04:14and pull yourself up to sit on it. TRAINER CLAPS
0:04:14 > 0:04:18Nice, all right! Now I need you to put your feet through your legs.
0:04:18 > 0:04:21- 'This is much harder than it looks!' - OK, there you go!
0:04:21 > 0:04:23CREAK
0:04:23 > 0:04:27- Good! And... Look at you!- Nice, Tills!
0:04:27 > 0:04:28CLAPPING
0:04:28 > 0:04:30- How's that feel?- Good.
0:04:30 > 0:04:34'Now for the final stunt. Dad's here just in time.'
0:04:35 > 0:04:39You've learned all the basics now. So, here's what we're going to do.
0:04:39 > 0:04:41You're going to let go of those ropes
0:04:41 > 0:04:43and you're going to roll backwards like a backflip.
0:04:43 > 0:04:45'Is he serious?'
0:04:48 > 0:04:52- Ready?- Yeah...- All right, when you're ready, you go.- Relax, Tills.
0:04:53 > 0:04:55LOUD CLAPPING
0:04:59 > 0:05:01Do another flip, Till.
0:05:08 > 0:05:09Well done.
0:05:11 > 0:05:13Ahh!
0:05:17 > 0:05:20Whilst the rest of the Ramsay Bunch get up to more circus tricks,
0:05:20 > 0:05:26Dad's got another Vegas challenge for me. He's taking me to work.
0:05:26 > 0:05:29- Morning, guys!- Morning, Chef. - Let me introduce you to
0:05:29 > 0:05:31- my new sous-chef. Matilda, Scott. - Hello.
0:05:31 > 0:05:35Scott is a formidable chef. He runs Daddy's restaurant in Vegas.
0:05:35 > 0:05:38'Today, I want to create a dish that's good enough to
0:05:38 > 0:05:40'go on Scott's menu.'
0:05:40 > 0:05:42- Ready?- Get out.- Get out?
0:05:42 > 0:05:45Well, well wait a minute, how about "good luck"?
0:05:45 > 0:05:50- Scott, good luck, bro.- See you in a little while.- Bye, Dad.- OK, Matilda...
0:05:50 > 0:05:52'I've never worked in a professional kitchen before,
0:05:52 > 0:05:56'so Scott's going to show me the ropes.'
0:05:56 > 0:05:58You've got, like, loads of these pots and pans.
0:05:58 > 0:06:00Absolutely, and you know, by the end of the day
0:06:00 > 0:06:03every single one of these is going to get used.
0:06:03 > 0:06:05- Every single one?- Every single one.
0:06:07 > 0:06:10We serve over 1,500 people a day here. Can you believe that? 1,500.
0:06:10 > 0:06:13- That's a lot.- Can you imagine doing that from your kitchen at home?
0:06:13 > 0:06:18- Yeah?- 'To feed that many diners Scott's got a team of over 20 chefs,
0:06:19 > 0:06:23'and the biggest fridge I've ever seen in my life.'
0:06:23 > 0:06:25Wow, it's massive.
0:06:25 > 0:06:28'First, Scott's going to teach me how to make one of mine
0:06:28 > 0:06:31'and Jack's favourites, macaroni cheese.'
0:06:31 > 0:06:35Mac & Cheese is a really famous American dish.
0:06:35 > 0:06:39They love it, so it's great to find out how they do it here.
0:06:39 > 0:06:41'To make the sauce, you just whisk flour and butter.'
0:06:41 > 0:06:45- I've never worked in one of Dad's restaurants before.- Are you...
0:06:45 > 0:06:48Well, I'll tell you what, there's plenty to do, so come by any time.
0:06:48 > 0:06:49Aw, cool.
0:06:50 > 0:06:54- 'Then, add milk and cream.'- Now we get to the most important part.
0:06:54 > 0:06:57- We have to get all that nice cheese in there, right?- Yeah.
0:06:57 > 0:06:59'We're using two types of cheddar
0:06:59 > 0:07:02'and a softer Italian cheese called fontina.'
0:07:02 > 0:07:05Why don't we start and just put a couple of handfuls in there?
0:07:05 > 0:07:09Is it good? Does it meet the Tilly approval? All right, perfect.
0:07:10 > 0:07:12'To finish the sauce,
0:07:12 > 0:07:16'add mustard then pour it over macaroni that's already been cooked.'
0:07:16 > 0:07:19- Jack is going to love this. - Fantastic.
0:07:21 > 0:07:26'Pour into an over dish and sprinkle over herbs and breadcrumbs.'
0:07:26 > 0:07:27- Wow.- Gorgeous.
0:07:29 > 0:07:31- See that?- Yeah, that looks nice.
0:07:31 > 0:07:35- And then, and then we'll put this in the oven for a little bake, OK?- OK.
0:07:35 > 0:07:37In just about, like, you know,
0:07:37 > 0:07:385 to 10 minutes until that gets nice
0:07:38 > 0:07:41and bubbly and golden. It'll be delicious.
0:07:50 > 0:07:52Back at the circus, Mum and Holly
0:07:52 > 0:07:54have side-stepped the bungee
0:07:54 > 0:07:56training and headed straight for glamour.
0:07:57 > 0:08:00- We're going to tag team and do the make-up on you.- OK.
0:08:00 > 0:08:02- Holly, you're going to help me. - OK.- All right.
0:08:02 > 0:08:05Holly's giving Mum an extraordinary circus makeover.
0:08:07 > 0:08:10We're going to make kind of a circle around the eyes.
0:08:10 > 0:08:11Really make it stand out,
0:08:11 > 0:08:14so you want to make sure it's pure white, OK?
0:08:14 > 0:08:17This is right up Holly's street.
0:08:19 > 0:08:23Hold it upside down so we're just using the tip of the brush.
0:08:23 > 0:08:25Stalk in with me.
0:08:25 > 0:08:27- Looks good.- Like that?
0:08:28 > 0:08:29Yeah, girl.
0:08:31 > 0:08:35It's really interesting, learning how to do it all.
0:08:35 > 0:08:38And, Mum definitely looks completely different.
0:08:38 > 0:08:40Make-up fit for the stage.
0:08:41 > 0:08:43Definitely better with the lashes.
0:08:48 > 0:08:51In the training room, Meg's facing the scary backflip.
0:08:51 > 0:08:55- How does it feel? - Really weird, it's quite scary.
0:08:55 > 0:08:58- Do you feel like you're really high? - Really, really high.
0:08:58 > 0:09:00Three, two, one...
0:09:04 > 0:09:05- Oh-ho! Yes!- 'She's done it!'
0:09:05 > 0:09:07CHEERING
0:09:09 > 0:09:10'Jack's up next.'
0:09:11 > 0:09:13Off you go.
0:09:13 > 0:09:16- Yeah!- 'He's doing brilliantly!'
0:09:19 > 0:09:22- He's coming to take my job. - Let's see your front flip!
0:09:27 > 0:09:31I feel like I flew for about five minutes. It's awesome.
0:09:31 > 0:09:33Two, three, up! Yay!
0:09:35 > 0:09:37And...
0:09:39 > 0:09:42I love being in this professional kitchen.
0:09:42 > 0:09:44Now to see if I can persuade Dad
0:09:44 > 0:09:47and Scott to put one of my dishes on the menu.
0:09:47 > 0:09:49So, I'm making my three ring circus sliders,
0:09:49 > 0:09:51the best mini-burgers they'll
0:09:51 > 0:09:53ever taste...I hope.
0:09:58 > 0:10:04This is just a mushroom, and on top I'm going to put some pesto.
0:10:06 > 0:10:10'Sprinkle on breadcrumbs and herbs to give crunch.'
0:10:10 > 0:10:13- Scott, would you mind putting this in the oven, please?- Oh, absolutely.
0:10:13 > 0:10:16- It looks beautiful. - Thank you. Thank you.
0:10:16 > 0:10:18'Cook for five to ten minutes.'
0:10:18 > 0:10:20Now I'm going to do my salmon burger.
0:10:23 > 0:10:29'Season with salt and pepper, add chopped coriander and olive oil.'
0:10:29 > 0:10:32I'm putting a little bit underneath so it doesn't stick
0:10:32 > 0:10:34and then I'm just rubbing it all over.
0:10:34 > 0:10:36Scott, would you mind putting this in the oven too please?
0:10:36 > 0:10:40- Yes, you bet.- Thank you. 'Cook for five to ten minutes.'
0:10:43 > 0:10:45'My cheeseburger.' MOO
0:10:45 > 0:10:48'Mix minced beef, chopped parsley, salt and pepper
0:10:48 > 0:10:53'and make into mini-patties. I'm cooking it on the restaurant's
0:10:53 > 0:10:56'wood-fired grill to make it extra tasty.'
0:10:56 > 0:10:58This is a very big spatula.
0:11:01 > 0:11:04I'm definitely getting used to being in a pro kitchen like this.
0:11:04 > 0:11:08It's really hot, though. And you've got to be really careful.
0:11:08 > 0:11:10'Dad and Scott are going to be tough judges,
0:11:10 > 0:11:13'so I'm making these extra special.'
0:11:14 > 0:11:16'This is for my mushroom burger.
0:11:17 > 0:11:21'I'm going to add some lettuce, tomato and pesto
0:11:21 > 0:11:23'and finally the roasted mushroom.'
0:11:25 > 0:11:27This is looking really good.
0:11:27 > 0:11:30I put the stick in because it will hold the burger together
0:11:30 > 0:11:31until it's ready to eat.
0:11:33 > 0:11:37'To my salmon slider, I'm adding a tasty mix of mango and avocado.'
0:11:38 > 0:11:40My fruity sauce...
0:11:40 > 0:11:43'Lastly, my meat slider has got yummy melted cheese, lettuce,
0:11:43 > 0:11:48'tomato and ketchup.' This looks amazing!
0:11:48 > 0:11:53'But will Scott and Dad think my dish is good enough to go on the menu?'
0:11:55 > 0:12:00- OK, I'm staring to get nervous now. Hello.- OK, right, Matilda,
0:12:00 > 0:12:02let's have a look.
0:12:05 > 0:12:08Right, Scott what do you think?
0:12:08 > 0:12:11- Salmon done maybe just a touch thinner?- Mhm.
0:12:12 > 0:12:14- Pesto's nice.- Mhm.
0:12:17 > 0:12:19We don't have a vegetarian slider option on
0:12:19 > 0:12:22- our menu right now, you know. - No.
0:12:22 > 0:12:25- So that might be an option. We don't have a fish. No.- Wow.
0:12:25 > 0:12:26Will they go for it?
0:12:28 > 0:12:31Um...You know, we've got a big name to uphold here.
0:12:31 > 0:12:34But, I think they may hold up. I think they may hold up to us.
0:12:34 > 0:12:36Yeah, nice job!
0:12:36 > 0:12:38- Nice job!- Thank you. - So, you'll put them on the menu?
0:12:38 > 0:12:41- We're going to put them on the menu.- Wow. - CHEERING
0:12:41 > 0:12:43- Good job.- What do you think?- Thank you.- Good job.- Nice job.- Happy?
0:12:43 > 0:12:45- Thank you very much.- Yeah!
0:12:48 > 0:12:51But will the rest of the Ramsay Bunch give the newest
0:12:51 > 0:12:57- item on the menu the big thumbs up? - The three ring circus slider.
0:12:57 > 0:13:01- How cool is that?- So exciting! - Tilly's idea.- Was it Tilly's?- Wow.
0:13:04 > 0:13:06- Beautiful, you lead the way.- OK.
0:13:06 > 0:13:08RAMSAYS CHEER
0:13:10 > 0:13:14- OMG.- They look really good.- Eh, they look amazing.- Thank you so much.
0:13:14 > 0:13:17- Amazing, amazing, amazing. - Aw, Tills.- They smell delicious.
0:13:17 > 0:13:19- Wait until you taste.- Oh...
0:13:20 > 0:13:22- Let's go for vegetarian. - Do that last!
0:13:22 > 0:13:26- Absolutely delicious, that pesto! - Really good!- Really, really good.
0:13:26 > 0:13:29- It holds.- Yeah, the mushroom holds its own, doesn't it?- It does.
0:13:29 > 0:13:31My favourite's probably the salmon.
0:13:31 > 0:13:33It's so nice, I love that avocado on top.
0:13:33 > 0:13:35Wow, I love the mango on there as well.
0:13:35 > 0:13:36I've never heard Jack so quiet.
0:13:36 > 0:13:40I've been very impressed, Tills. They're very good.
0:13:40 > 0:13:43They're a big hit with the Ramsay Bunch!
0:13:43 > 0:13:44I'll go home to bed, tonight,
0:13:44 > 0:13:48knowing that I have severe competition on my menu.
0:13:49 > 0:13:50Cheers, Tilly, well done!
0:13:50 > 0:13:53ALL: Well done, Tilly.
0:13:53 > 0:13:55CHEERING
0:13:55 > 0:13:57You can check out my recipes
0:13:57 > 0:13:59and blog on the CBBC website.
0:14:01 > 0:14:05We've had a fantastic time in Vegas
0:14:05 > 0:14:07and pulled off some wild circus stunts.
0:14:08 > 0:14:12Now, I'm going to have high-rise foodie chat, Vegas style.
0:14:13 > 0:14:16What a crazy 24 hours.
0:14:16 > 0:14:19What was it like working in a full-on professional kitchen?
0:14:19 > 0:14:22It was quite scary at first because there was so much going on, but then
0:14:22 > 0:14:25you get used to it and you realise that everyone's just there to help.
0:14:25 > 0:14:29Did you think that Scott was going to say a big "yes" to those sliders?
0:14:29 > 0:14:32I didn't know, to be honest.
0:14:32 > 0:14:34Did you enjoy it?
0:14:34 > 0:14:37- A lot.- Good. And well done.
0:14:37 > 0:14:40And you now have a dish on the menu, where it's...That makes me
0:14:40 > 0:14:41incredibly proud.
0:14:41 > 0:14:45Let's do a selfie up here, quick!
0:14:45 > 0:14:47- One more!- Hang on! - Get the whole of Vegas in!
0:14:47 > 0:14:49Funny face!
0:14:49 > 0:14:51- You turned it off!- Oh, sugar.
