This year the Celebrity Theatre will be expanded to seat 2,500 people so more people will have to chance to watch their favourite chef/s in action.

    It would be a dream come true to meet Mr. Ramsay in person. So many questions that I want to ask him: What made you fall in love with food, are you satisfy with your current position as one of the best chef in the world and what inspire you to create new food ideas.
    Cheers

    Gordon, you are one of the most reputable chefs building a career out of nothing, with chefs that work with you saying you are a pleasure and joy, then why do you still get so much bad publicity? (paul)
