WANTED: Gordon Ramsay

Recipes Dh and I would like to try a few of them before we buy a whole book of them.

For a chuckle...we live so far in the middle of nowhere that our county library does not carry any of his books, nor even have that even mentions him.

Well worth it

Hi Lisa

Been to several of his restaurants and based from that you can safely invest in one of his books. The man is brilliant. Annoying but brilliant .
Here is something to look at in the meantime http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/lif...say/fast_food/

Most welcome

Considering how much help you give in here, it feels great to give just a little tiny back

One of my coming rewards will be dinner at Gordon Ramsay at the London.

He's an ass. But he can cook. I liked his autobiography "Humble Pie"? quite a bit as well.

I must be a totally sheltered idiot, but I have never heard on Gordon Ramsey, I take it he owns a restaurant?

Sorry to be out of it!

http://www.gordonramsay.com/corporate/theman/biography/

I am usually not a fan of wikipedia, but this information IS accurate:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gordon_Ramsay
"Gordon James Ramsay, OBE (born November 8, 1966 in Johnstone, Scotland) is a celebrity chef, television personality and entrepreneur. He has been awarded a total of twelve Michelin stars,[1] and is currently one of only three chefs in the UK whose restaurant is rated at three Michelin stars. He is famous in the UK for presenting TV programmes about competitive cookery and food such as Hell's Kitchen and The F-Word. He is best known in the United States as the host of FOX's Hell's Kitchen, which premiered in May 2005, and of Kitchen Nightmares, which premiered in September 2007, based on his successful British show Ramsay's Kitchen Nightmares."


This is a classic example of a scene from his Kitchen Nightmares (this one BBC-America). Definitely a person you either love or hate, but dh and I find his shows entertaining. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MB8dGQ77Zg0

I know we don't! Especially with the price of gasoline.
