28 October, TSB Bank Arena, Wellington
Gordon Ramsay OBE - Celebrity Chef, Broadcaster, Author and Restaurateur – will be visiting New Zealand in June to celebrate all things culinary and speak candidly about his incredible life story and his business success.
Ramsay’s first years in the kitchen were spent training under culinary luminaries such as Marco Pierre White and Albert Roux in London, after which he moved to France where he worked in the kitchens of Guy Savoy and Joël Robuchon for three years where he was able to enhance his expertise in classic French cooking. In 1993, Gordon became chef of the newly opened Aubergine, within three years the restaurant was awarded two Michelin stars.
Gordon has been awarded a total of 16 Michelin Stars and in 2007 became one of only three chefs in the United Kingdom to hold three Michelin stars at one time. He currently ranks 3rd in the world in terms of Michelin Stars behind Joel Robuchon and Alain Ducasse.
TV programmes Hell’s Kitchen, The F-Word and Ramsay’s Kitchen Nightmares are entertaining to be sure, but probably not an accurate portrayal of how he runs his own kitchens. If treated as cruelly, his own staff would probably have abandoned him long ago.
At ‘Dinner with Gordon Ramsay’ you will rub shoulders with celebrities and special guests, enjoy a unique evening including a three course dinner, fine wines, first class entertainment plus a live Q&A with Gordon himself.
