Ya every clip i've seen of him interacting with staff and line cooks he's reasonably cordial. Just shit owners and "professional chefs" that he rips on.

He can still eat shit if he comes banging on my door making demands!

I was a professional chef.

No, I was an actual professional who worked at a high level.

The event where I worked with Ramsey was when a group of award winning chefs were asked to come in and cook a banquet for the senior officers at Sandhurst. We were both brought in just for that.

There's a reason why I said "supposedly professional" instead of just saying professional.

You likely keep a clean work station, you likely aren't cooking spoiled food, you're probably not making absolutely shit food and trying to sell it.

Remember, stuff like Hells Kitchen in the USA? It's a character, an act. That's apparently not what he's actually like. Apparently he's far more like he is in shows in the EU since excessive swearing and being angry 24/7 doesn't play as well on TV.

So

  1. Gordon Ramsay is a complete tool and should not be venerated as a person anymore
  2. I'd probably make something fullproof like braised ribs, given enough time. Picking something with few ingredients (like pasta or rice) is inviting too much to go wrong.

Gordon Ramsay is not actually as harsh as many think. He's actually quite encouraging to people who are not supposedly professionals.

However nice he is (not sure why that basic human quality is worthy of praise but w/e), he made his fortune by celebrating the toxic kitchen culture of being an inhuman drill sergeant. So him and Marco Pierre White are largely to thank for that weird spate in the 90s and 2000s where every chef thought acting like Hitler in the kitchen was "just how it's done".

No, you're way off. Go check out the tv show that made him famous - Boiling Point. This was back when he was trying to get his restaurant to 3 michelin stars.

https://www.instagram.com/p/CLjRR5ihnL3/?hl=en

He's nothing short of abusive, physically and verbally. Firing and berating teenagers for the most minor of infractions, shoving employees around, insulting them in the most horrible way. And this was a documentary, it wasn't for the camera or reality tv.

Kenji Lopez Alt sums up my thoughts:

https://www.mashed.com/340558/j-kenji-lopez-alt-just-called-out-gordon-ramsays-abusive-behavior/

In literally any profession other than perhaps the military, the idea that you can scream abuse at your staff to get the best out of them is completely absurd.

Romanticising the kitchen environment as this do-or-die battleground where you can treat your employees like dogshit just so that they burn themselves out making food for people is the most ridiculous thing, but people think that's cool...because Gordon Ramsay made it sexy.

Imagine your boss standing half a foot from your face and screaming insults about your weight and intelligence because you didn't format an excel report correctly. Imagine that flying in any office environment.

They absolutely do (or did, it seems to be getting a little better culturally). If you speak to people who work in kitchens, they sometimes talk about it like they're in a battalion on the front lines, and not just working 90 hours a week on near minimum wage serving food to people who will abuse them because the steak was slightly overdone.
