Biography

Early years

His father was, at various times, a swimming pool manager, welder, shopkeeper, and aspiring country and western singer, and his mother was a trained nurse.[2] Ramsay has described his early life as "hopelessly itinerant", as his family moved constantly due to the aspirations and failures of his father. In 1976, they finally settled in Stratford-upon-Avon. In past public interviews, Ramsay has declined to describe his father as an alcoholic; however, his autobiography, Humble Pie,[2] describes his early life as being marked by abuse and negligence from this "hard-drinking womanizer".[2][3] At the age of 16, Ramsay moved out of the family house to a council flat with his elder sister. Ramsay played football, was first chosen to play under-14 football at age 11, and was chosen to play for Warwickshire at age 12. His football career was marked by a number of injuries, causing him to remark later in life, "Perhaps I was doomed when it came to football".[2] In the summer of 1984, Ramsay was being actively scouted by Scottish club, Rangers, the club he supported as a boy,[4] when he seriously injured his knee, smashing the cartilage during training. [5] Ramsay continued to train and play on the injured knee, tearing a cruciate ligament during a squash game. He never fully recovered from the double injury and was told by Rangers that he would not be signed, suggesting that he could sign with a club in a lower division. By this time, Ramsay's interest in cooking had already begun, and he chose to take on this new challenge, rather than be known as "the football player with the gammy knee".[2] After weighing his options, without enough O levels to join either the Royal Navy or the police force, Ramsay enrolled at a local college, sponsored by the Rotarians to study Hotel Management. He describes his decision to enter catering college as "an accident, a complete accident".[2] (In September 2005, Ramsay expressed an interest in moving into football again as an owner with the proposed takeover of Greenock Morton football club.[6]) Welding is a fabrication process that joins materials, usually metals or thermoplastics, by causing coalescence. ...

After his professional football career came to an end at age 19, Ramsay paid more serious attention to his culinary education. In the late 1980s, he worked as a commis chef at the Roxbury House Hotel, then ran the kitchen and 60-seat dining room at the Wickham Arms, until his relationship with the owner's wife made the situation difficult.[2] Ramsay then moved to London, where he worked in a series of restaurants until being inspired to work for the temperamental Marco Pierre White at Harveys.[2] Cooks in training in Paris Chef is a term commonly used to refer to an individual who cooks professionally. ...

After working at Harveys for two years and ten months, Ramsay, tired of "the rages and the bullying and violence", decided that the way to further advance his career was to study French cuisine. White discouraged Ramsay from taking a job in Paris, instead encouraging him to work for Albert Roux at Le Gavroche in Mayfair. (While at Le Gavroche, he met Jean-Claude Breton, now his Maître d' at Royal Hospital Road.) After working at Le Gavroche for a year, Albert Roux invited Ramsay to work with him at Hotel Diva, a ski-resort in the French Alps, as his number two. From there, Ramsay moved to Paris to work with Guy Savoy and Joël Robuchon, both Michelin-starred chefs. He continued his training in France for 3 years, before giving in to the physical and mental stress of the kitchens and taking a year to work as a personal chef on the private yacht, Idlewild, based in Bermuda.[2] A pot of coq au vin, a well-known French dish French cuisine is a style of cooking derived from the nation of France. ...

Head chef

Upon his return to London in 1993, Ramsay was offered the position of head chef at La Tante Claire in Chelsea. Shortly thereafter, Marco White re-entered his life, offering to set him up with a head chef position and 10% share in the Rossmore, owned by White's business partners. The restaurant was renamed Aubergine and went on to win its first Michelin star fourteen months later. In 1997, Aubergine won its second Michelin star. Despite the restaurant's success, a dispute with Ramsay's business owners led to his leaving the partnership in 1997.[2] In 1998, Ramsay opened his own restaurant in Chelsea, Gordon Ramsay at Royal Hospital Road, with the help of his father-in-law, Chris Hutcheson. The restaurant gained its third Michelin star in 2001, making Ramsay the first Scot to achieve that feat.[7] Statue of Thomas More on Cheyne Walk. ...

From his first restaurant, Ramsay's empire has expanded rapidly, first opening Petrus, where six bankers famously spent over £44,000 on wine during a single meal in 2001,[8] then Argan cafe in Glasgow (which he was later forced to close) and later Gordon Ramsay at Claridge's. Restaurants at the Dubai Creek and Connaught Hotels followed, the latter branded with his protégée, Angela Hartnett's, name.

In May of 2005, the FOX network introduced Ramsay to American audiences in a U.S. version of Hell's Kitchen produced by Granada Entertainment and A. Smith & Co. The show follows a similar premise as the original British series, showcasing Ramsay's perfectionism and infamous short temper. The show proved to be popular enough with audiences in the United States that, in August of 2005, shortly following the Season 1 finale, Hell's Kitchen was picked up for a second season. The show is currently in its fourth season (2008) on FOX.

His most recent series is a food-based magazine programme titled The F-Word; it launched on Channel 4 on October 27, 2005. The show is organised around several key, recurring features, notably a brigade competition, a guest cook competition, a food related investigative report and a series-long project of raising animals to be served in the finale. The guest cook (usually a celebrity) prepares a dish of their own choosing and places it in competition against a similar dish submitted by Ramsay. The dishes are judged by diners who are unaware of who cooked which dish and, if the guest wins (as they have on numerous occasions), their dish is served at Ramsay's restaurant. Each series also features a series-long project of raising animals to be used as the main course in the series finale. In the first series of The F-Word, Ramsay mockingly named the turkeys he raised: Antony, Ainsley, Jamie, Delia, Gary and Nigella – all in reference to other famous celebrity chefs. During the second series, Ramsay named the two pigs that he was raising after Trinny Woodall and Susannah Constantine[18] who found the naming highly amusing.[19] In July 2006, Channel 4 announced that it had re-signed Ramsay to an exclusive four-year deal at the network, running until July 2011.[20] During the third series, Ramsay reared lambs that had been selected from a farm in North Wales and he named them after two Welsh celebrities, Charlotte Church and Gavin Henson.

Lawsuits

In June 2006, Ramsay won a High Court case against the London Evening Standard newspaper, which had alleged, after reports from previous owner Sue Ray, that scenes and the general condition of Bonaparte's had been faked for Ramsay's Kitchen Nightmares.

Ramsay's reputation is built upon his goal of culinary perfection.[30] Since the airing of Boiling Point which followed Ramsay's quest of earning three Michelin stars, the chef has also become infamous for his fiery temperament and use of expletives.[30] Ramsay famously ejected food critic A. A. Gill along with his dining companion, Joan Collins, because Gill had stated that "Ramsay is a wonderful chef, just a really second-rate human being".[7] Ramsay has also had confrontations with his kitchen staff, including one incident that resulted in the pastry chef calling the police.[31] Despite his fevered actions, Ramsay has a loyal staff and claims an 85% retention rate since 1993.[32] A. A. (Adrian Anthony) Gill (born June 28, 1954) is a British newspaper columnist and writer. ... Joan Henrietta Collins OBE (born 23 May 1933) is a Golden Globe Award winning British actress and bestselling author. ...


Ramsay attributes his pugnacious management style to the influence of previous mentors, notably chefs Marco Pierre White and Guy Savoy, father-in-law and business partner Chris Hutcheson, and Jock Wallace, his manager while a footballer at Rangers.[33] Ramsay's ferocious temper has contributed to his media appeal in both the United Kingdom and the United States, where his programmes are currently produced.[34][35] His fierce personality ensured that he was voted television's most terrifying celebrity in a Radio Times poll consisting of 3,000 people.[36] MSN Careers featured an article about television's worst bosses, which listed Ramsay as the only non-fictional boss. They cited his frequent loss of his temper and his harsh critiques of cooking and people; feeling that quality of life doesn't have to be sacrificed for quality of food.[37] Marco Pierre White (born 11 December 1961) is an English chef and restaurateur. ... Guy Savoy is a well known French chef, and is the Head Chef and owner of the eponymous Guy Savoy restaurant in Paris and sister restaurant in Las Vegas. ... Jock Wallace (1935 - 1996) was a professional football (soccer) player and manager. ... Current Radio Times logo Radio Times is the BBCs weekly television and radio programme listings magazine. ...

Although Ramsay often mocks the French, two of his maître d's, Jean-Baptiste Requien (who works for Ramsay at Gordon Ramsay at The London NYC and Gordon Ramsay's Maze at The London NYC) and Jean-Claude Breton (Royal Hospital Road), are French.[38][39] The maître d (short for maître dhôtel, literally master of the hall) in a suitably staffed restaurant is the person in charge of assigning customers to tables in the establishment, and dividing the dining area into areas of responsibility for the various servers on duty. ...


Having once claimed that women couldn't "cook to save their lives", in November 2007 Ramsay installed 29 year-old Clare Smyth as head chef at his three-Michelin-starred flagship restaurant on London’s Royal Hospital Road.[40] Smyth is the first and only female British chef to be in charge of a three-starred restaurant and the second high profile appointment of a female chef by Ramsay, after Angela Hartnett. Angela Hartnett (born 1969) is a British chef who is a common sight on British television. ...


Ramsay has been criticized for his frequent use of profanity on his programmes, first by fellow British celebrity chef Delia Smith,[41] then, in relation to Ramsay's Kitchen Nightmares, by a member of the Federal Parliament of Australia.[42] In cartoons, profanity is often depicted by substituting symbols for words, as a form of non-specific censorship. ...

Food views

On the second series of The F-Word Ramsay showed a softened stance after learning about intensive pig farming practices including castration and tail docking. On the programme, Ramsay commented, "It's enough to make anyone turn fucking vegetarian, for God's sake. And I've always sort of knocked vegetarians and vegans for missing out on the most amazing flavour you can get from meat. But you can see why so many people change instantly."[43] Intensively farmed pigs in batch pens Intensive piggeries (or hog lots) are a type of factory farm specialized for the raising of domestic pigs up to slaughter weight. ... Castration (also referred as: gelding, neutering, orchiectomy, orchidectomy, and oophorectomy) is any action, surgical, chemical, or otherwise, by which a male loses the functions of the testes or a female loses the functions of the ovaries. ...

Vegetarianism is the practice of a diet that excludes all animal flesh, including poultry, game, fish, shellfish or crustacea, and slaughter by-products[1] [2].

Some controversy arose during the third series of The F-Word when journalist Janet Street-Porter, contending that horse meat should be eaten more widely in Britain, attempted to serve horse steaks at Cheltenham horse races. She was prevented from doing so by police, who deemed the stunt 'highly provocative'. She subsequently served the meat from a private property, garnering the approval of most of the consumers shown in the programme. The conclusion of both Street-Porter and Ramsay was that horse meat merited a more prominent place in Britain's national diet. In the wake of the stunt, representatives of animal rights group PETA protested by dumping a tonne of horse manure outside Ramsay's restaurant at Claridge's in central London.[44] Janet Street-Potter née Bull[1] (born 27 December 1946) is a BAFTA Award-nominated British editor, journalist, media personality, television presenter and producer. ...

Ramsay is 188cm (6' 2"), with size-15 feet and his shoes are custom-made.[49] On his show Ramsay's Kitchen Nightmares, Ramsay has stated that he is afraid of dancing, especially in front of people. On a later episode, at La Gondola, he decided to "confront his demons" and is seen dancing.


Charity work

Ramsay has been involved in a series of charitable events and organisations. Ramsay has run the London Marathon in 2004, 2005, 2007 and 2008 to support Tommy's, the baby charity. Ramsay completed his third London Marathon on April 22, 2007, in 4 hrs 36 minutes 10 secs (3:46:10 in 2006).[50] In 2004, he and his wife, Tana, raised £14,000. Ramsay commented: "I'm proud to have run the Marathon for Tommy's, the baby charity - their cause is one very close to my heart, especially as my own twins were born three weeks prematurely in 1999".[1] He aims to complete ten marathons in consecutive years.
