Gordon Ramsay Biography 

A new biography of Gordon Ramsay-celebrated restaurateur, star of Fox TV's hit reality show Hell's Kitchen, and the only London chef with three Michelin stars.

He has cooked for prime ministers, ousted Hollywood actresses from his restaurants, set records for cursing on television, and changed the way Britain eats. As famous for his volatile persona as he is for his cooking, Gordon Ramsay remains London's most talked-about chef, an international sensation whose eponymous restaurant boasts three Michelin stars. And with his hit television show, Hell's Kitchen, Ramsay is now a household name in the U.S. At 18, Ramsay was a professional soccer player; at 30, he was a multi-millionaire. So how did he end up in the kitchen? In this, the first biography of the star chef, Neil Simpson offers a fresh perspective on one of the most driven and successful men in Britain.

By Shelly J. Button - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)
I couldn't put the book down! Reading about the real Gordon Ramsay, I was very much impressed. Mr. Ramsay is a very intelligent and wonderful person, and I have very much respect for him -- Shelly J. Button

The book was a good read, even with all the "F" words in it.
Was very interested in reading about the man and how he got where he is. Very good buy. -- David A. Gaumer "perfectionist" (iowa)

This is one of the best biographies I have ever read. It tells of his past amd present and touches every aspect of his life. It tells of his struggles and his accomplishments. I could not put it down, I was literally reading it during class. This is a must read book if you can handle bad language and if you like cooking. This book should win an award. -- lisa "Matheson"

Roasting in Hell's Kitchen - Gordon Ramsay 

Everyone thinks they know the real Gordon Ramsay: rude, loud, pathologically driven, stubborn as hell.

Now, for the first time, the world's most famous-and infamous-chef tells the inside story of his life: his difficult childhood, his father's alcoholism and violence, his brother's heroin addiction, his short-circuited soccer career, and his fanatical pursuit of gastronomic perfection-everything that helped mold him into the culinary talent and media powerhouse that he is today. He also dishes the dirt on the rich and famous, and takes you behind the scenes of some of the great restaurants.

Honest, outrageous, and intensely personal, Roasting in Hell's Kitchen will not only change your perception of Gordon Ramsay but that of the cutthroat world of haute cuisine as well.

Roasting in Hell's Kitchen: Temper Tantrums, F Words, and the Pursuit of Perfection

This is quite a pageturner. My wife and I rarely finish the same book within the same day. We live an era of ghost written celebrity biographies written with boring pedantic voices. I have no illusions that Ramsay wrote this book without assistance (whether an editor or overzealous assistant)but the book certainly captures his voice. The result is an honest unapologetic narrative of the life of a remarkable man. There are lessons to be learned, hard work as the solution for overcoming adversity. Readers of food porn may be dissapointed in that the book is less about the food than the man behind the food. Fans of Ramsay will be delighted because of the insight into the method behind his madness. -- Antonio P. Manahan "Tonico Manahan" (Makati, Philippines)

Passion for Flavour - Gordon Ramsay 

Look at the images, read the recipes, and just imagine their incredible, mouthwatering taste. These 100 dishes from hot chef Gordon Ramsay radiate an ethereal lightness and outstanding intensity of flavor. Using only the freshest ingredients, minimal butter, and the cleanest, deepest stocks as a base, he conjures up sublime food that never fails to excite the palate. Best of all, Ramsay has adapted many of his most renowned recipes for the domestic kitchen-including Cappuccino of Roasted Langoustine and Lentils, Tortellini of Ratatouille with Sauce Gazpacho, and Creme Brulee with Roasted Rhubarb. All the essential techniques are beautifully explained, and the on-the-page menu includes soups, starters, pastas and risottos, vegetables, fish and seafood, meat, game and poultry, desserts, and ice creams and sorbets.

Gordon Ramsay is the only chef in London to hold three Michelin stars. He is the owner of more than a dozen award-winning restaurants.

Passion for Flavour

Gordon Ransay's Passion for Flavours quickly became one of my favorite book. Not one of my favorite RECIPE books, but one of my favorite books I've ever read. All those mouthwatering recipes, in those bright, colorful pictures, makes me want to try them every weekend - it's when I have time to cook. A must be in every collection of those who love to cook for your beloved ones. This book made Gordon's passion becoming my own. -- M. MEDONCA "Dad's cooking now" (Sao Paulo, SP BRAZIL)
