[Food] Favourite/ least favourite tv/celeb Chef ?

[OzMike]

All of them, with the twatty Ramsey top of the list.
I don't need to be told by these what I like and don't like, I can figure out for myself.
Waste of time and TV space.

Good shout for Bloomfield. The Spotted Pig was one of my favourite restaurants until it closed amidst dodgy goings on.

Indeed. She never seemed to have recovered from that, despite, it seems, not having been the instigator? I love her two books, wish she'd write another!

Gutted to just hear the news that Dave Myers of the Hairy Bikers has passed away. Was only watching them 2 nights ago and I thought he was still doing well with his treatment.

RIP Dave

Yes indeed, we should be posting a seperate R.I.P. thread for him.

Fave chef? (although he prefers to be labelled as a cook), is Rick Stein, he loves to cook seafood, and l love to eat it. His cookery programmes very often merge into travel guides.

Least fave? that's quite easy, that annoying Italian with the little man syndrome, Dino D'Campo.

I actually quite like Gordon Ramsey. I will happily binge kitchen nightmares (British one more than the American). For all his bluster and ego he can be pretty genuinely nice. Is always polite to waiters and waitresses and saves his anger for owners and head chefs who he thinks are taking the piss. Any hint of BS will see him fly off the handle of course.

Also enjoyed the one he did in prison.

Particularly because he literally made an Alan Partridge desperation pitch come true.
