What's your opinion on Gordon Ramsay?

I personally think he's an amazing chef (Michelin 3 Stars), but a very douchy person (but I still admire him because he's just amazing).

What's your opinion OT?

I wouldn't call him douchy. All that yelling and stuff is just an act. He is actually really nice and occasionally you'll see glimpses of that on his shows. I would like to visit his restaurant in LA in the near future.

He swears a lot.

Do Americans not swear?

Well, to be honest, his swearing is pretty hilarious. :D

From what I've seen, I don't like him. I don't care how good your food taste, if you're a douch, I'm not going to buy from you.Lonelynight

You know he's a "douche" on a dramatised TV show. He doesnt act like that to customers.

Chefs in general are overrated. It must be because I'm very cheap, but I don't want to pay 40 dollars for a steak, and I don't care how much preparation went into it. I'd rather cook my own steak for under 20 dollars. lonewolf604

IRL he is incredibly kind and charitable. He started the British version of Kitchen Nightmares as a genuine way to help people, and in the British show he was not afraid to get his hands dirty and bust his tail to really help people. He's given people jobs, personally paid the tuition at culinary school for some, and personally paid for temporary staff to give people he believes in a chance.

He has gotten incredibly rich and the past few years his business managers have made some questionable decisions for him and in his name. He's still a good guy though and I'm a fan.

who?

wait, that chef guy?
I have not had or remember seeing his food, but it sounds like he is good at making it.
And can't remember seeing him not in that show, so I can't judge on if he is annoying,

But that show he is in is annoying to watch because of his random yelling.

hes no bobby flay

He's cool despite his ego.

The Hell's Kitchen act: Hilarious. Also he's making one of those people chef at one of his restaurants, he's a douche to them when they fail to demonstrate that they can do the job.

Real version: Lovely person, he's a sweetheart :P

I like him, but I prefer Chef Irvine.

I adore Kitchen Nightmares. It is simply amazing television.

His behavior on the show, as mentioned, is pumped up for drama and offscreen he seems like he'd be a really cool guy. I'd love to get a chance to go to one of his restaurants.

He's a cool guy and obviously a talented chef...

... but screw Hell's Kitchen. I'm still angry about Elese getting to the final 3.

I like his shows. Seems like a very passionate guy. I like seeing passion.

He is entertaining for sure.

Well, I like the guy. Not so much the drama shows such as Kitchen Nightmare and Hell's Kitchen, too much acting in those shows. Masterchef US is cool though, and his other nicer(english) shows such as the F-word.

I think hes hilarious on Hell's Kitchen.

He's a good chef and I enjoy his shows a lot.

He insulted kourabiedes (a greek christmas cookie). He must die. :|

I like his shows and think he's a funny guy and a great cook.

I love the Mitchell and Webb sketch on "Kitchen Nightmares":

I'm with the others on this, he's okay deep down but what you see on the tele is just an act. I'd love to eat som eof his dished, though.

I watched a reality show where Gordon was teaching some celebrities how to cook. I think viewers could vote them out of the kitchen, I can't remember. But I do recall Vic Reeves walking into the restaurant and asking for a fried egg. Gordon, who didn't recognise him, gave him an earful for ordering such a basic dish from a fancy place.
