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.

More quotes by Gordon Ramsay
There's nothing new. I think that's the weird thing for me. Over the last couple of months, the keep-fit shows, and then at the end of it you get to lose weight and one of you is going to win a million dollars - that's not real. In many ways, even 10 years ago that wouldn't have worked.
Gordon Ramsay
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
I suppose your security is your success and your key to success is your fine palate.
Gordon Ramsay
I think when we opened in 2001, it was holy ground. There was nothing here. Back then, being on the Dubai Creek was an amazing position, and I would come one or two times a year, max. Now it's so different. The travel dilemma has disappeared and it is so easy to get to Dubai. What is it, seven hours from London? It's pretty easy.
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
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
You see new shows coming out with the same format, slightly high end, a little bit more glossy. You think, S - . It's just the same s - but different day.
Gordon Ramsay
I suppose I might be a player-coach nowadays. I'm a great teacher, and I enjoy teaching. But I'm glad I got injured and ended up turning to cooking. It was an accident but the happiest one of my life.
Gordon Ramsay
I'm actually not really a breakfast person.
Gordon Ramsay
The essence of Reality TV is all about drama. So, I think bringing pressure is healthy whether it's a professional chef or a domestic chef. Because the only way ever to really identify the true purpose of how good they are is submerging them under pressure. So I say it's no different than a live football game because it's about the intensity.
Gordon Ramsay
Videoing, lifting it, prodding it, and five minutes later they might even eat it! That first approach to the naked eye is crucial, so when you see pictures coming through on your social media, it does push you to be a little more creative and raise the bar a little bit higher.
Gordon Ramsay
I act on impulse and I go with my instincts.
Gordon Ramsay
I hid myself in food.
Gordon Ramsay
I cook, I create, I'm incredibly excited by what I do, I've still got a lot to achieve.
Gordon Ramsay
My wife, a schoolteacher, very disciplined. If you think I'm tough, trust me, and wait till you see when the children are on the naughty step. It's hilarious. So we decided that I'm going to work like a donkey and provide amazing support for the family.
Gordon Ramsay
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.
Gordon Ramsay
To have 95% of the ingredients sourced, food and wine, within 100 miles radius, that's a dream come true for any chef.
Gordon Ramsay
The thing is, I can teach. I can teach bloody well. So few chefs have that level of generosity. I demand a lot, a f***ing hell of a lot, but I give a lot back.
Gordon Ramsay
You know how arrogant the French are - extraordinary.
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
