Chanteyranger - the salient part in your comment above is 'different chef there, but Ramsay's recipes'.

You could give 10 people an identical recipe & ingredients and you would end up with 10 different dishes. Every cook/chef puts things together differently, regardless of who is overseeing them or which instructions they are following. When I worked in a restaurant, you could tell who had made certain dishes even though the 3 cooks/chefs we had there used the same recipes. Some were better at the mushroom roasts than nut roasts, others made better curry than me. I was the only person who could get the nut and rice rissoles to stick properly, even though the others copied me.

We provided a good, healthy, prompt and hygenic food service without any recourse to swearing, shouting, screaming or slapping. We were Egon Ronay recommended and in several good food guides.

Almost a year since my last posting here, I'm still convinced that Mr Ramsay is more concerned with his money and fame, than he is with the welfare of his staff or his customers. If he can lie and joke about meat in a vegetarian dish then how can we trust him when he says there is no fish or nut product in other dishes?
