When it comes to food, we can think of it falling into three categories. Firstly, we have the no frills heartwarming comfort food which can even be as simple as a warm bowl of porridge. Next is the food we enjoy and eat from day to day. Lastly, there is gourmet and fine dining where the dishes are bold, creative, and comes with a bigger price tag.

His Rise to Fame

Gordon Ramsay was born in the quaint town of Johnstone, Renfrewshire, Scotland. After moving constantly in his early childhood, the Ramsay family finally settled in Stratford-upon-Avon when he was nine. Here, he grew up with his two sisters and one brother.
His early days were not easy, in fact, he describes his father as a “hard-drinking womaniser” who inflicted abuse and neglect. The constant moving around was due to the aspirations and failures of his father.
Moving on, his interest in cooking first began when he was working as a pot washer in a local Indian restaurant where his sister was a waitress. Deciding not to be known as the footballer with the gammy knee, he enrolled at North Oxfordshire Technical College to study hotel management.

After that, Gordon Ramsay started to build his skills and experience at Harveys, Le Gavroche, and Hotel Diva which is a ski resort in the French Alps. Furthermore, he studied and continued training for three years in France. Then, he worked as a personal chef on a private yacht based in Bermuda.
In 1998, he decided to open his own restaurant, Restaurant Gordon Ramsay, in Chelsea. He did so with the help of his father-in-law and former colleagues. Within three years, the restaurant received its third Michelin star. This impressive feat made him the first Scot with this achievement.
Moreover, his culinary empire began to expand rapidly soon after. He now has restaurants in prominent locations including Tokyo, Dubai, and Ireland.
