Gordon Ramsay

One of the world’s most famous chefs is Gordon Ramsay, who is also a television icon. He has worked under the kitchen legends Joël Robuchon, Marco Pierre White, and Guy Savoy, with the latter being his mentor. Ramsay has a vast restaurant empire, with seven Michelin stars to his name. His most prized, however, is his flagship Restaurant Gordon Ramsay in London. His other dining establishments can be found around the world. He remains ambitious and has made more investments in expanding his businesses.

Long before that, however, Ramsay was not on his way to becoming a chef. In fact, he was actually an aspiring football player in his younger years. Despite being quite adept at the sport, his years were marked by constant injuries. This meant that he eventually ditched the field, with him remarking that he was “doomed when it came to football.” This led him to focus his efforts on cooking.
