I'm sorry, I think he's an arse. I was a chef for 3 years - and it is very stressful when you've got a packed restaurant, especially if you have a michelin starred reputation to uphold (Gordon Ramsey...not me :P ) But theres no need to speak to people the way he does, its condescending and arrogant. I guess he plays up to it quite alot now though, it seems to be making him alot of money.

How much of it is real anyway? It's a TV persona. I bet he's not that big of an ass in real life.

Oh yeah, Fox tells him to be a dickhead. All the customers are there for the show as opposed to the food. :lol:

We have recently started watching, the guy really reminds me of how it was to be in the army.

I was soooo going to start a thread on this! It's the best summer show (not that the competition is steep or anything).

Does anyone remember the teases/commercials for it last night. It showed that yucky thing on a plate and mentioned "someone leaves a present for the customer". I swear I thought it was a giant booger. Turns out it was only fish bones, but I really did think that Aaron was going to snot all over the plate!

I think he has some sort of chemical imbalance.

I certainly wouldn't want a man that was that sweaty and pale touching my fish. :lol:

Been watching this show since Day 1. He's a dick, true, but he also demands perfection and really does train the various cooks. That being said, his farewell of 'Now fuck off.' was hilarious.

Yeah, I have NO idea why he didn't get kicked off. I think Rock's move was strategy. Although, it seems a little early in the game for that. But maybe not.
I like Melissa.

Aaron has gotta go. Rock's move was complete bullshit, IMO. It was a power trip on his part.

You got that right. Aaron very muchly needs to go home, if for no other reason than he's gonna keel over and die of a thrombosis.

Not as big a one - but pretty arsey all the same :lol: I remember his first tv appearance in the UK. It was just a documentary and he was filmed working in his kitchen and to his own staff he really was that awful. He said in the interview part that he had a reputation to uphold and that was why he couldn't tolerate anything less than perfection from his staff.

He must be fun to work for.

I'm with Bonnie when she said Ramsey scares the pee out of her. I don't like it when my boss is just pmsing...can't imagine if I had someone screaming at me because I broke some eggs or made sticky pasta. But I love to watch other people getting bitched out!

Ya know, I happen to like peppery risotto, in fact it's hard to get TOO peppery on anything for me...so suck that chef Ramsey! LOL

Who else besides me is so happy that the Waffle House Queen, Julia, prevailed this week? Some of those women were really pissing me off, talking about how uneducated in food she is.
