About the author

Scottish by birth, Gordon Ramsay was brought up in Stratford-upon-Avon, England, and initially aspired to be a professional footballer. However, when an injury prematurely put an end to any hopes of a promising career on the pitch, Gordon went back to college to complete a course in hotel management. His dedication and natural talent led him to train with some of the world's leading chefs, including Albert Roux and Marco Pierre White in London, and Guy Savoy and Joël Robuchon in France. At the age of 35, Gordon branched out on his own to set up his first wholly-owned and namesake restaurant, Restaurant Gordon Ramsay. Restaurant Gordon Ramsay opened in 1998, and quickly received the most prestigious accolade in the culinary world - three Michelin stars. Now internationally renowned Gordon has opened restaurants all around the world, presents many hugely popular tv shows, and is the author of multiple bestselling cookery books. Gordon and his family divide their time between London, Los Angeles and Cornwall.
