More quotes by Gordon Ramsay
If you become a chef because you're obsessed by becoming a celebrity, getting my ass kicked and working my nuts off the way I did in France and getting pushed around those kitchens wasn't about becoming famous.
Gordon Ramsay
We launched it in the London branch - phenomenal sausages, incredible eggs, homemade baked beans, black pudding - and it's something I wanted to bring to Dubai.
Gordon Ramsay
I'm not trying to take New York by storm. I just want to sneak in there, keep my head down, batten down the hatches and cook.
Gordon Ramsay
Kitchens are hard environments and they form incredibly strong characters.
Gordon Ramsay
I suppose your security is your success and your key to success is your fine palate.
Gordon Ramsay
When you cook under pressure you trade perfection.
Gordon Ramsay
In order to create a little bit of confidence, start cooking with pasta. Pasta is phenomenal. Once you've cooked pasta properly for the first time it becomes second nature.
Gordon Ramsay
We are about creating a new wave of talent. We are the Manchester United of kitchens now. Am I playing full-time in the kitchen? I am a player-coach.
Gordon Ramsay
I am a chef who happens to appear on the telly, that's it.
Gordon Ramsay
I have to say, opening up in New York taught me a lot about that level of attention to detail. London's a tough market, Paris is a tough market, but New York, well, that's extraordinary.
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.
Gordon Ramsay
[My kids] don't need to cook to keep me happy. It's my job as dad to create opportunities so that they can find their passion. Forget about money, find what you really want to do with your life.
Gordon Ramsay
Given that level of responsibility with your 25-year old or 35-year-old chef, it's just quite nice to see how they handled that exposure. Not every chef deals with it properly they get slightly excited, a little bit overconfident and then they miss out on the most important part.
Gordon Ramsay
If you want to think about cooking, and it's a high-five, laid back motion, then flip burgers and dress Caesar salad, don't try to pitch in the premier league of restaurant. Build up to it, by all means.
Gordon Ramsay
[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.
Gordon Ramsay
I can't say, maybe it's something in the ingredients, but again, we have a couple of contestants from Long Island and a phenomenal array of chefs.
Gordon Ramsay
I think pressure's healthy, and very few can handle it.
Gordon Ramsay
I love eating out. I don't deny that. But I don't want 12 or 15 courses because the chef wants me to taste this or taste that. I just want to be able to decide.
Gordon Ramsay
I'm actually not really a breakfast person.
Gordon Ramsay
I'm Gordon Ramsay, for goodness sake: people know I'm volatile.
