Gordon Ramsay Is Not a Jerk; He Just Plays One on American TV

Funny you mention this... I love the British Ramsey, not so much the FOX version.

I was watching the Charlie Rose interview with Thomas Keller posted on SE recently and Rose asked Keller about Ramsey... his response included a comment about how it was too bad that Ramsey's legacy would be defined by his TV persona rather than his ability as a chef, which Keller lauded.

Gordon Ramsay Is Not a Jerk; He Just Plays One on American TV

I don't think people quite understand. I think it's reasonable to believe that Gordon is a an ass in HIS kitchens and is also a proper, decent human being outside of them. I don't think these are mutually exclusive. If you read Marco Pierre White's memoir, White states with certainty that the environment inside of top kitchens is not friendly or politically correct, and may be considered darwinian if nothing else.

How come the American talkshow hosts seem to enjoy being "funny" and talk all kind of nonsense and act stupid when they invite Ramsay over to their show? I just watched 2 different talkshows via SE and they were pretty unbearable - the hosts i mean. Gordon Ramsay was genuinely interested in the cooking and they weren't.

If I could - I would grow bell peppers, we go through them so quickly. But the deer around here would eat them all and if they didn't get to them, the rabbits, raccoons and other "critters" would!
