Gordon Ramsay Quotations

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.

MasterChef Junior for me was about working closely with these kids and getting them to reeducate their parents to understand that food is as important educationally as Math and English and it's important that we don't take it for granted.

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.

There are very few chefs both in Britain and the States that really identify the secret of being consistent. And combine consistency with flavor.

When you're cooking in the premier league of restaurants, when things go down, it has to be sorted immediately.

I like finding talent. That's what really turns me on, I suppose.

I'm a big lover of fish. Cooking fish is so much more difficult than cooking protein meats, because there are no temperatures in the medium, rare, well done cooking a stunning sea bass or a scallop.

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.

I spend more time in the kitchen than I have in the dining room, for obvious reasons, however, I just want to sit and indulge.

Chelsea has always been a foodie heaven and it will never change in that respect.
