I love Master Chef and have seen him be very nice to struggling competitors but he doesn't sugar coat his opinions.

Which show did he help prisoners?

I love Glasgow and I like Gordon Ramsay--then I found out he was from Glasgow. Of course! He is very much like Glaswegians in general.

His is very much the city's style: frank, vehement, honest and...it's one of the best run cities I have ever lived in. Very different from London. It's smaller, of course, and easier to run, but it's the largest city in Scotland and things work there for people who are residents, and the shopping is better than in Edinburgh--so is the dining. For simple food. I believe GR's first restaurant was a fine dining venue in Glasgow that failed after a few years of awards but not enough customers. On his shows, to this day, he will explain why the 'gastopub' is a better idea than the haute cusine venue. Simple, plain, very good food is almost everywhere in Glasgow.

The tourist sights are better in Edinburgh but Glasgow is a _much_ more comfortable place to live. It's the only place I know in Britain where people never queue, as Britons are supposed to delight in. I once saw an old lady cross against a light she had hastened up to, but just missed, and she attacked a cab edging up on her with her cane, yelling at him. Glaswegians are the New Yorkers of the UK, and I really love that city, as I love NY.

I felt H*ll's Kitchen was not his best show, although often watchable. I look forward to what he comes up with next.

I like Gordon, clearly on MasterChef he seems really invested in the contestants. I just returned a library copy of one of his cookbooks, great for inspiring new ideas in the kitchen.

He was great with Jimmy. Gordon wasn't impressed with Jimmy's egg cooking skills....Gordon tossed them on the floor. ${#emotions_dlg.laugh}$

It was all in good fun. BTW, I also enjoyed Bobcat G. on the show. I haven't seen him in a LONG time!

Ramsey Behind Bars - it was a BBC series.

If he's yelling like a lunatic, not so much. If he's reasonable, then yes.

Hiya Mick!

I like him too. I don't care for Heck's Kitchen anymore but I still like Gordon.

I think that, although he's from Scotland, he came up in England which would, of course, explain his English accent. I want to say London, but I'm not certain.
