3-17-10 Roasting in Hell's Kitchen by Gordon Ramsey - Non-Fiction

3 - In general, Gordon Ramsey is a pretty simple personality. Not simple as in low I.Q., but simple in that there's not much going on that you don't see out in the open. Yes, he's known as that bastard who swears at the top of his lungs at everyone, but he does seem to have a mellower and slightly more compassionate side that is occasionally seen on "Hell's Kitchen." It was interesting to discover how torn he became when he really had a chance to become a professional football player (that's soccer for us Americans) but he was already studying cooking. His relationship with his family is also interesting. Overall, he is a little full of himself but he has become very successful even outside of the TV career and has helped other chefs become successful as well. Probably a read for die hard foodies only.
