 A Chef for All Seasons : Reviews, Prices, Deals   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
Gordon Ramsay, like Marco Pierre White before him, is the current holder of the position of Top Temperamental Chef in London and the embodiment of that paradox of haute cuisine, under which the most exquisite food emerges from the most furious white-hot hell of the professional kitchen.
It is arranged by season, with Ramsay introducing each season by discussing his favourite foods, then showing his virtuosity in a set of recipes designed to show them at their best.
When you cook with the finest of ingredients and you are no slave to fashion, preferring instead to pick the best each season has to offer, you can cook a feast fit for a king........

 I Love Desserts
Ramsay has such a knack for demonstrating the basic building blocks and techniques of each of his masterpieces that any reader following his step-by-step methods can recreate his irresistible treats at home.
Ramsay imparts the knowledge, talent, and magic of the professional pastry kitchen into a marvelously easy-to-use guide for the home cook.
For Ramsay, "Roasting fruit correctly is as important as cooking the perfect turbot, or a canon of baby Pyrenean lamb." The happy result of this tireless commitment is a bounty of stunning recipes.

GORDON Ramsay was born, not in 1966, as you would expect of a 35-year-old but in 1985, the moment he first walked into Harvey’s restaurant in London and met his mentor.
Cook, a trilogy of cookery books, the quartet of restaurants and a mouth big enough to fit a critic’s fist, was first formed by Marco Pierre White.
Ramsay senior never met Gordon’s wife, and he died three weeks before he was supposed to dine at his son’s restaurant.

 eG Forums -> Gordon Ramsay@ Claridges: The Biggest Flop Since Ishtar
He is a great cook, as is Marcus Wareing, but I think he is throwing his employees to the lions in a bid to match the achievements of his idols.
Ramsay should think about what he wants to achieve for himself (apart from a very healthy bank balance of course and who could blame him), rather than compete with those who have already finished the race.
Mr Ramsay may be a fine cook and all but I,for one,will not hand over my money to anyone who thinks its all right to humiliate,abuse and deprive people of their livelihood whenever the mood so takes him.

Ramsay, 38, who has an award-winning female chef at one of his restaurants, is known for his fiery temper as much for his culinary skills.
She said they were based on a survey for a TV programme which claimed 75% of women asked admitted they could not cook.

Celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay has claimed that women "can't cook to save their lives" while more men are learning what to do in the kitchen.
Anybody can cook regardless of their sex, provided they are interested in food and have time to learn to cook.
Many women don't have the time to cook like they once did and if the man enjoys cooking and this is one chore he is prepared to do then why not let him especially if he's good at it.

 Side order of Ramsay with a large helping of ugliness - [Sunday Herald]   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
What he can’t bear is that Ramsay’s truly awful show represents the trivialisation of food that is only eaten in prohibitively expensive restaurants, by a minuscule minority of people who can afford to pay hundreds of pounds for bits of stuff tottering around on little towers of pastry and potato.
Joining Pierre White in this assumption that somehow Ramsay and his £15 ravioli matters and is having his divine talent undermined, is the media, which constantly sneers at the celebrities that Ramsay is abusing in the kitchen and serving in the pretend restaurant that’s been constructed for the show.
Both these men could doubtless beat Ramsay in the kitchen, if all they were after were additional Michelin stars and nothing more, but being decent, talented and mature individuals, their interests are considerably wider than the hollow vanity of Gordon Ramsay.

With the latter, you read, you drool, you start to cook before realising you're lacking the essential squab vinaigrette, balsamic truffle reduction, and the virgin-fed, hand-dived spider crabs for the Maryland Spider Crab Cakes with Squab Truffle Ouzo Reduction, which was the only recipe you thought sounded even remotely approachable.
Ramsay inside, no photos of co-authors at all (but no one really cares about them).

Ramsay then announces that the restaurant will open that night, and the hopefuls scurry off to learn the menu (which, curiously, has no prices).
Ramsay doesn’t seem to relish this part of the show as much as the producers do: Eliminated contestants have to remove their chef’s jackets in front of everyone, the snaps popping loudly like a self-administered firing squad.
Then, to make sure we get the point, the loser is interviewed in front of a Dumpster while Ramsay impales his or her jacket on a coat rack.

 Gordon Ramsay: Just desserts
But one thing should not be overlooked: Ramsay happens to be one the greatest chefs in the world.
His restaurant Gordon Ramsay has three Michelin stars, Gordon Ramsay at Claridges was named Tatler 2002 Best Restaurant and his Boxwood Café combines tradition and relaxed service at the chic Berkeley hotel.
Okay, so Ramsay famously kicked Joan Collins out of his restaurant, and said of Ainsley Harriott: 'He's not chef, he's a f***ing comedian.' But when you're as celebrated and talented as Gordon, you can get away with such things.

Other scores were the modified Ramsay (6%), Cook and Palma modified Glasgow Coma Scales (10%) and in 30% scoring system were created for each specific study.
As it was mentioned before, sedation was scored using Ramsay, Modified Ramsay Scores, Cook and Palma Glasgow Modified Scores or specific scores created for the studies.
Although it is still too early to draw conclusions, and as with every new technology there is need of more assays in different patient types and conditions, comparison of sedation regimens will continue to be problematic until such quantification techniques are validated and available.

Ramsay, author of Just Desserts, was in New York recently to join Kitchen Confidential author Anthony Bourdain for a book signing and cocktail party at the Campbell Apartment in Grand Central Terminal to benefit the Windows of Hope Family Relief Fund.

If there was a deliberate leak by Ramsay or affiliates (and that's a big "if", without any suggestions as to how the news initially got out), the publicity would have been at the expense of Ramsay's clients.
But then you have to give Ramsay credit, because the hotdog vendor was the one that all the judges assumed was the legitimate chef.
Ramsay, I suspect really does believe he is the next stage of culinary evolution.

 Nation, Ideas and Identities: Essays in Honour of Ramsay Cook. by Michael D. Behiels   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
In dividing this volume into categories intended to reflect the very wide range of Ramsay Cook's interests, its editors do a fine service in simply recalling how extended and diverse those interests are.
Michiel Horn's compact treatment of academic freedom in Canada speaks succintly to the first; Marcel Martel's examination of Quebec nationalism's disdain for French-speaking minorities outside Quebec skilfully counterpoints the second; and Phyllis M. Senese's treatment of civic nationalism effectively glosses the third; it is, she says, no different in essence from nationalism tout court.
With Patrick Dutil's sharply observed reprise of Cook's career during the 1960s, his most active phase as a public intellectual, readers get a memorable recounting of a time when solutions to problems seemed no less clear and exiguous than the difficulties they were meant to dispatch.

I had expected this TV genre to have run it's course by now but, although the flood of cooking programmes has abated slightly, there are still enough of them to bore us all rigid.
The most annoying part of it is that it has left a collection of mediocre cooks with the idea they are great artists who 'create' these 'wonderful' dishes, which always look to me like two bits of carrot under a coating of cat sick.
Sorry all but over the weekend I read somewhere (The Guardian, maybe?) that Ramsay had signed to do a new show that is to be a mix of cooking, chat, and comedy.

Ramsay has been “visiting ladies' houses up and down the country with our film crew and you would be amazed how little cooking the girls are doing”.
In contrast, the men he’s encountered are allegedly cooking up a storm.
The picture Ramsay paints really doesn’t reflect the world I see around me. I’d say, on the whole, that women remain the more proficient everyday cooks, although some men are taking more interest, especially in what I call 'showpiece cooking' - dishes to impress supper guests.
