hes cute

bump

He's a former field fairy that likes good food. It's just too bad he can't replicate the good food he likes. I'd rather eat at tgi friday's.

>>3393325

So his restaurants arent worth going to?

One of the best chefs in the world, the success and acclaim of his restaurants really can't be debated

>inb4 some troll posts that GR logistics article

He's an Amerifat television personality, rage-driven and goal-oriented. Over here, Ireland he isn't even worth noting

>>3393328

His talent is unparallelled. You couldn't possibly bag it and sell it, am I right?

I like what he said.

There are definitely celebrities (even outside of food) who have not earned their success.

Gordon Ramsay has passed the Rotten Tomatoes of food, if you will.

What that means is that a lot of people all over the world who critique food have generally agreed that his food and restaurants have merit.

He's not Paris Hilton or Sandra Lee, to be more precise.

>>3393332
Theres not a whole of restaurants in Ireland worth noting anyway...

>>3393342
Please see >>3393325, no he didn't earn anything.

>>3393359

Please prove he did not earn it.

I will return by providing dozens of articles from critics all around the world.

>>3393426
He clearly put his own name in all those Michelin guides...

He's a fucking manager and not a chef. He is also is mega debt.

Gordon came up under Marco Pierre White. There's no possible way he DOESN'T know his shit.

>>3393456
He didnt learn shit from Joel Robuchon either

>>3393462

Except how to have the most Michelin stars at one time of any chef. I'm sure he doesn't hold that title anymore, but that's irrelevant.

>>3393473

I could be wrong, but you're replying to sarcasm.

Doesn't change what you said, though!

>>3393332
He DOES have shows not in America. The UK version of Kitchen Nightmares is MUCH different. He also has a series where he goes to India, and again, he's very collected and respectful, not as hot-headed as the shit in the US he strs in.

>>3393498
That's his problem if he wants to act like a dumbass on Murrican teevee. Nobody is forcing him to be a monkey. He's obviously rich enough.

>>3393498

>he's very collected and respectful

You must not have seen Gordon's Great Escape. He was so awkward and impolite, it was painful to watch.

>>3393498
It's not really different though, it's just not censored as they like to do it in the land of the free.

fuck galore ahoy.

He was working under King Dick during his prime years and wooooo man Pierre was a dick.


He sold his soul for cubes while Ramnsey is now a billionaire.

>>3393534

CUUUUUUBES

This guy is much better. Too bad he doesn't have a hit show. I do read his books though, great read.

>>3393333
>Pre-bagged

Just about every restaurant that has high traffic does this. It is cheaper and easier.

>>3393553

actually, he's sort of a culinary nobody.

great writer, lousy chef. he's even admitted to it.

>>3393563
But the exact opposite of what he preaches on Kitchen Nightmares. I'm with that poster, he's a fucking hypocrite.

>>3393513
examples of how he was rude? other then swearing

>itt non-industry fags that haven't heard of a commissary kitchen

>>3393577
It's not that, it's just on the record he's said horrible shit about things like heated up meals and how appealed he was that any restaurant would do such a thing... Then he does a 360 and does the same shit that he said he would never do.

>>3393598
damn auto correct I meant appalled

>>3393598

>Does a 360
>Back where he started
>meant 180
>I'm a massive dick

His Christmas turkey gravy was revolting. The turkey itself was excellent, but fuck resting it for the same amount of time you cook it. The hot out of the oven parts tasted infinitely better.

Oh hai there, don't mind me just managing to be a decent chef and not being a dick at the same time.

>>3393682
This guy speaks oddly. It's like he's like he's speaking through the sides of his mouth or something. It's really annoying.

>>3393627
I guess you weren't on 4chan for the 360 launch.

>>3393686
Still preferable to Gordon's screaming

>>3393690
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dU_B3QNu_Ks

He doesn't seem to be screaming in this video. Infact, this video is nice to watch.

>>3393697
Those eggs look half cooked and disgusting.

>>3393699
You just prefer your eggs overcooked and disgusting.

>>3393697
It's nice to see him so relaxed for a change.

>>3393699
Dude, what? those eggs are perfect, in fact I get hungry just looking at them.

I was watching that shitty show master chef on a stream here once, and he actually said during a contest where they had "the most beautiful" filets that well done was the hardest to cook.

And then I remembered a shitty fucking american kitchen nightmares where someone ordered a steak well done on relaunch night and returned it since it was under, and he said something to the tune of "Oy come the fuck on now wots it, well done is the easiest to cook tut tut, just leave it on the heaty wheaty char and meaty" which I assume meant just leave the steak on the grill, I don't fucking know what he was saying.

And then I remembered my life as a grill cook for 5 or so years in steakhouses where well dones were a pain in the ass, until you marked them and threw them in the oven.

So what message am I supposed to get here?

Motherfucker sears fish all day, like you know what a grill is ramsay, like they have steakhouses in england.

sorry im drunk

Sigh, Gordon Ramsey is fucking overrated. Any serious chef would tell you, its much less the fucking chef and more the restaurant, the fucking team. Personally I liked him better, I doubt any of you fu/ck/s even know who he is.

>>3393733
I liked his book. Would love to eat his food.

>ITT: utter nobodies claim a Professional Chef is bad at cooking.

man, you guys are a fucking crack-up

Gordon isn't nearly half the douche his US tv shows portray him as. Watch his UK shit and see the better side of him.

Also from what I've heard from people in the industry who worked with him is that he's actually kind and educating. He's just a tad bit on the fanatical side of passionate from what I can tell.

>>3393762
I've heard he's an incredibly nice person in real life.

>>3393699

actually thats the perfect way to cook scrambled eggs.

Oh wait you probably like yours over cooked and rubbery. Europeans like their eggs moist while the French go as far to have it runny still.

>>3393697

Oh my god those eggs look perfect

>>3393553
Kill yoself.

>>3393627
Fucking uneducated newfags.

I tried to get my chef uncle to tell me what he thinks of most celebrity chefs when I last saw him. He's too nice to openly diss individuals, for the most part, but when I mentioned Gordon Ramsay he seemed very derisive.

>>3393996

your uncle probably knows shit.

>>3394004

Whoa, this discussion just turned CLASSY

>>3394004

He owns and runs a Michelin-starred restaurant.

>>3393598
The stuff prepped at his commissary was cooked the same day, and shipped to under-equipped kitchens. That's prepping, not frozen bagged meals.

>>3393727
>I was watching that shitty show master chef on a stream here once, and he actually said during a contest where they had "the most beautiful" filets that well done was the hardest to cook.

It is the hardest to cook WELL. It takes a bit of skill to cook well done meat so it is still moist and succulent.

>And then I remembered a shitty fucking american kitchen nightmares where someone ordered a steak well done on relaunch night and returned it since it was under, and he said something to the tune of "Oy come the fuck on now wots it, well done is the easiest to cook tut tut, just leave it on the heaty wheaty char and meaty" which I assume meant just leave the steak on the grill, I don't fucking know what he was saying.

That's his leading style. He makes you feel bad for sucking, regardless of how hard the task is. If you were juggling bowling pins while running a station he would tell you a 3 year old could do it.

But obviously you've never contradicted yourself ever.

>>3394010
And Ramsay has more Michelin stars than him. He's bitter because he knows he will never be as successful as him.

>>3394026
He also said well done is the most common order for steak.

>>3394038
Depends on your region and culture. I imagine many brits still like what they grew up with before the brit food renaissance. Everything in a pot boiled for 17 hours.

the yelling and swearing is all just for show. otherwise he seems like a decent cook.

>>3393780
>Oh wait you probably like yours over cooked and rubbery.
I do actually. Nothing over a nicely browned scrambled egg. That fake vomit looks horrible.

>>3394063
>browned scrambled egg

Why.jpg

Do you put ketchup on your steak too?

>>3393733
i worked for fergus a couple years back at the main st johns, learnt so much stuff you wouldnt learn in any other kitchen.
basic food but amazing pickling and preserving techniques served honestly with out fuss.

>>3394075

No you didn't.

>>3394077
pretty sure i did, unless i'm mistaking myself for someone else? but then you would know better.

Man had the most stars out of any chef and several successful restaurants.

He's good. Anyone saying otherwise is probably a faggot/troll.

The man came up through the Roux restaurants like Pierre White did, he is pretty damn good. Also he is a lot calmer in his UK shows, he puts on a character for the US.

>>3394083

I guarantee you didn't.

< This guy's show was pretty good. More like emulating restaurant cooking at home though.
