I've been at home sick the past couple of days, allowing me the "luxury" of sitting and watching Ainsley Harriott perform culinary wonders. OK, OK, I'm being a little sarcastic there. I strongly dislike the man, find his elaborate use of salt shakers, sieves and all manner of other kitchen utensils intensely annoying and can't wait for his retirement from the daytime TV circuit.

Ricky Gervais with Gordon Ramsey in the F-Word Restaurant. His podcasts (available on iTunes) are rip-roaring funny. We don’t get to see him too much (or I don’t as we don’t have HBO to see Extras). Gervais video for Simon Cowell’s “This is Your Life” episode. 2 Minutes with Ricky Gervais (from a Canadian show “The Hour”).

David Beckham is not only a very talented footballer, style icon, and gorgeous father of three sons, apparently he can cook too. According to foul mouthed Michelin starred chef Gordon Ramsay David is good in the kitchen.

I had to turn Gordon Ramsey off. This wasn’t because the show was largely bollocks, it was because fucking Geri Halliwell was on it pushing ‘her book’ and Ramsey was actually flirting with the harridan, it was like watching the school bully trying to score with the school bike, and failing.

I have a real love/hate relationship with Gordon Ramsey. I can't stand his bullying, his relentless and unnecessary bad language and I really can't abide his underhand slating of other chefs ("there is more chance of Anthony Worrall Thompson winning a Michelin star than that rising" he declared last night).

I have the biggest hard-on for Anthony Bourdain and Gordon Ramsey and I can admit to it. I used to eat at Brasserie Les Halles on Park Ave. in NYC when I lived there between ‘98 and 2001 all the time. Once a week or so, I’d go there for lunch consisting of either steak au poivre or moules frites since it was down the street from the old Arena Blaze location.

A new restaurant opened in Islington this weekend, that will be selling a combination of Italian and Japanese food. In a move that would give Gordon “six-dishes-on-the-menu, local-produce-only” Ramsay a kitchen nightmare, Tokyo-Gino on Barnsbury Road has an array of dishes from both countries.
