Ramsay

When he walked out of Aubergine, everyone went with him, that tells you a lot in my opinion.

If you look at some of the staff he started out with him, Mark Sargeant, Marcus Wareing and Angela Harnett to name a few, they after training with him went on to run some of the finest restaurants in the world.

A lot of UK business would benefit from getting rid of deadwood, he does it ruthlessley and well done I say.
 
Aye I was watching some clips on YouTube from the 1990s and I checked his website - he still has the same staff (Mark Askew, Stuart Gillies, Mark Sargeant & Marcus Wareing oh and Angela).


Again, JP is still there (his restaurant manager)
 
it's not unusual for chefs to be rather angry in the kitchen though. james martin the favourite of grannies everywhere went a bit mental when he was running a student kitchen somewhere, as has rick stein.

working an apprenticeship under those kind of people is a passport to bigger and better things as has been said.
 
I ate at one of Ramsays restaraunts last week (Claridges), which is run by Mark Sargeant (who is a legend in his own right) and it was fantastic.

I used to be a chef, although obviously not nearly on the same scale that he is, even remotely. But having worked in 14 kitchens i've met a lot of people, and i certainly wasn't a *bad* chef (ie, not pubs). Given that i'd say that Ramsay does play a little bit up to the Cameras. All chefs get angry, it's part of the job. When it's your name on the front of the building and people are screwing it up, you lose your temper (i havent had my name on *** front of buildings before people ask, but i have made menus!). So yeah, i think he does play up to the cameras a little bit, but this doesn't take away the fact that he's an amazing chef, who coaches other brililant chefs, and is truly an industry leader. And certainly someone to be proud of nationally.
