Gordon Ramsay OBE is arguably the most famous chef in the world. His global restaurant empire has been awarded 17 Michelin stars; he has hosted some of the biggest shows on UK and US TV, including Hell’s Kitchen and Kitchen Nightmares; and he has a string of bestselling books. The internet loves Gordon Ramsay and a cool 60 million people follow him on social media. His new book, Restaurant Gordon Ramsay: A Story of Excellence is out now.

Angela knows exactly what Gordon likes to eat and prepares him a delicious crab linguine with chilli and garlic. Nick pours a vintage English sparkling wine, Gusbourne Exclusive Release, to toast Angela’s birthday and later some Soave, which is paired with the meal by the experts at Waitrose.

This is a really special episode as Gordon and Angela reminisce about the early days of Aubergine, the restaurant that launched their culinary careers. Nick learns a thing or two about Michelin stars, while Gordon talks family, fitness and TikTok.

This episode was released in September 2023 and was the first episode from Series 4 of Dish from Waitrose.

I fully get that this is like, an advertisement for Waitrose, but I feel like this show should be a full-length, possibly 1 hour long weekly Netflix series with a combo of the interview of the guest and with a full cooking/baking segment. I desire this content.

I Love Gordon Ramsey. He once stopped a show to listen to my request when I put up my hand to say, “Excuse me, but we can't hear you in the back, and we don't want to seem rude by not laughing and enjoying your banter while you cook”. He gave me a free copy of his book and thanked me for letting him know there was an issue. Then afterwards he signed my book ❤

The only criticism i have of this podcast was that it was too short.

@roberths7282 2 years ago

It’s interesting seeing how Angela holds herself in this show; you can tell she respects him dearly and holds him in high esteem.

I tripped over my dog to push play on this

I treated my Mother to the full Restaurant Gordon Ramsay experience and we both were bowled over. My mother, for my 40th, treated me to Angela Hartnett's Murano experience and we thought we had died and gone to heaven. We love both Angela and Gordon. This interview along with Nick is just smashing. Love it!

Angela has steel confonfidence to cook for Gordon Ramsay and giggle and joke as he eats. She's phenomenal!

@bgbaltuth 2 years ago

Love the story that Angela wore his chef 's jacket. Who could ever be angry with Angela?

“40 thousand, that’s huge! i’ve got 40 th- oh sorry, FORTY MILLION on tiktok.” lmaoooooo 😩😭

I had no idea Angela was such an OG. This was an illuminating episode in the best possible way. Brilliant.

Gordon Ramsay speaks with such admiration, respect and affection about the women in his life - his mum, Tana, Tilly and Angela here. It's awesome
Loved this pod SO MUCH

"Funny that, innit?" 😂😂 God I love British English.

Gordan being protective of the female chef is indicitive of his upbringing with a single mother. He is a class act.

Man, Angela surviving these guys is so, so underrated. She has to go down as one of the best chefs Britain has ever produced. A talented warrior.

I love Gordon. He worked hard and earned his status. Moreover, he is a teacher. Say what you want about “celebrity chefs” but Chef Ramsey is the real deal. I’ve had the pleasure of eating in a couple of his restaurants and they are genuinely some of the best meals AND service I’ve experienced.

@vivawaratah1101 2 years ago

I’ve always been a fan of the series but there’s just something so special about having a legendary chef as a guest, talking to another legend (That’s you Angela) about how they went through it all together. So inspiring! Amazing job as always ✨

@annb385 1 year ago

Gordon repeatedly speaks of Angela Hartnett across shows with such respect and regard. So great to see them together 💜

The only negative is that this is only half an hour long. I could watch them for an hour or more!

Gordon Ramsay is a good egg. I remember once I was with some friends outside a coffee shop on the Fulham Road, and a man passed out in the street, Ramsay was walking down the street and the first to come to the guy's rescue and dragged him back onto the pavement and made sure he was ok. Fast as a flash!

The admiration Angela and Gordon have towards each other is what I hope my employees under me feel. I’m there to protect against the corporate bs, help you advance in your trade, mostly, there to learn about you from you. Gotta love a high stress work environment
