About this listen

 Best known as the host of Fox's Hell's Kitchen and Kitchen Nightmares, Gordon Ramsay is one of the most driven, successful, and irate chefs around. He has thrown Hollywood actresses out of his restaurants and is notorious for his anger, but his food has been served to numerous heads of state, and he is one of only three chefs in England whose restaurant is rated at three Michelin stars. In this illuminating work, Ramsay discusses the violent, alcoholic, absent father who died just days after the pair had been reconciled as adults; the best friend and protégé whose bizarre suicide came hours after the two had shared a final meal; the decade-long battle to save his younger brother from heroin addiction and crime; and the real reason why he has not attended the birth of any of his four children. Sometimes hilarious and frequently heartbreaking, this is Gordon Ramsay’s full life, from tenements and poverty to top-notch restaurants and fame.©2009 Neil Simpson (P)2012 Bolinda Publishing Cooking Entertainment & Celebrities Food & Wine Funny Witty

This is a very enjoyable insight into the hard work that has made Gordon Ramsay the success that he is. But the narrator came close to making me give up! His general narrative was fine but when reading as GR he made him sons like a castrated Australian!

Is Gordon an Aussie?

To start with I wasn’t a fan of the narrator, though after about 30 minutes I was use to him. The story is funny & fucking brilliant!!

Yes chef

if you want to listen to the author toot his own horn then listen to this. I don't believe for an instant that he did cheat on his wife or shout at his kids. He is obnoxious and this story doesn't change your kind.

Not that interesting

A far from impartial ode to Gordon. Skirts many difficult topics and leans towards a publicity piece.

Average.
