Running started as a way of relaxing. It's the only time I have to myself. No phones or e-mails or faxes.

Cooking today is far greater than it ever was, and more importantly, a chef's role today has changed dramatically over the last decade.
Gordon Ramsay
Image
I hid myself in food.
Gordon Ramsay
Image
[Molecular gastronomy] was a great trend, because it experimented with food. The benchmark was [former elBulli head chef] Ferran Adrià, and now he is no longer there it is harder to gauge.

Someone sent me a picture of my name that was tattooed on their a***! The first thing I said was, the least you could have done was spell it properly!
Gordon Ramsay
Image
I act on impulse and I go with my instincts.

Find what's hot, find what's just opened and then look for the worst review of the week. There is so much to learn from watching a restaurant getting absolutely panned and having a bad experience. Go and see it for yourself.
Gordon Ramsay

I've had a lot of success I've had failures, so I learn from the failure.
Gordon Ramsay

Growing up in Britain, we didn't have much, worked for everything. To leave food on the plate, Mom classed it as being rude and so we ate because we were hungry, not ate because we had a choice in the fridge.

Stop taking things personally. Throughout the time with Kitchen Nightmares and Hotel Hell, when they work, you don't get any praise. When they fail, you get blamed. You're f - ed either way, but it doesn't stop me doing them, I think.

A lot of people think that I am only in town when I'm doing the publicity circuit, but I actually come [Bread Street] regularly. I just don't publicise it.

The kids now, on Junior, we educate the parents and it's quite a fascinating turnaround. You can just see the parents thinking, S - , 10 years ago I was eating so bad, and now I'm seeing it through the eyes of my kids at 9, 10 years of age. There is an upside to that side of reality TV. It's not all negative.

I suppose your security is your success and your key to success is your fine palate.

From 16 to 26, no one really knows what they want to do for the rest of their life at that age. Latin's not f - ing one of them.

You don't come into cooking to get rich.
Gordon Ramsay
Image
I want my kids to see me as Dad, for God's sake, not a television personality.
Gordon Ramsay
Image
I train my chefs completely different to anyone else. My young girls and guys, when they come to the kitchen, the first thing they get is a blindfold. They get blindfolded and they get sat down at the chef's table... Unless they can identify what they're tasting, they don't get to cook it.

Chefs don't do ponytails and we shouldn't do them because I guarantee that whenever there's a discovery of hair in the food, it's guaranteed it's from the chef's ponytail.

It's very hard when you eat out every day for a living, and a new restaurant comes along and you haven't got that same vigour that you had 10 years ago.
Gordon Ramsay
Image
The pressure on young chefs today is far greater than ever before in terms of social skills, marketing skills, cooking skills, personality and, more importantly, delivering on the plate. So you need to be strong. Physically fit. So my chefs get weighed every time they come into the kitchen.

Very few restaurants do five services a day - breakfast, lunch, afternoon tea, cocktail, theatre and dinner - and because of that we can offer something for everyone.
