I love to watch Gordan on Hell's Kitchen and on BBC.  I found out that one of his restaurant's is in London. My husband thinks he is a little rude and crude, but i have heard good things about him and think most of it is for T.V. so i want to go to his restaurant when we visit London, What do you guys think about him and if you have been to his restaurant let me know if its worth it..(I dont expect to get to see him but it would be nice,lol)  Thanks!

I like watching him too Debbie and although he is rude and crude he is a great family man and has done a good job with his lovely children. Also some of the people he has to deal with deserve a good telling off!! I know the restaurants of the celebrity chefs are really expensive and being very careful with my money and also allergic to alot of food ingredients I tend to eat at home and just get ideas from them! My favourite food show is Masterchef!

Oh I don't like that show Debbie!! If I want to see people getting yelled at I'll stay at work!!  I think it's all for ratings which is a shame because I think he's a great chef. I'd like to see him on Iron Chef America!!

I won't watch it, and I hate it when the commercials come on for it. Nobody should speak to an employee the way he speaks to his. And there is no excuse to use so crude language.

Just my humble opinion.

Same here.  I hate watching his or any show where every other word is BLEEP!  I'm sure he's an excellent chef and wonderful family man off camera, but as Stephanie said a meal at his restaurant would cost a fortune.  His face shows the result of years of stress and yelling at people.  IMHO.

He's a good chef, but i just think he acts up to the camera!! people who yell are usually a bit insecure and find it difficult to manage situations too!! usually a sign of lack of control!

I think that all the rude and crude is mostly for show,,,,why would anyone watch a mild mannerd chef shake his finger and go "no no no "

if you have noticed,he does put those in their place,only  when they think no one can touch them,and that they are above everyone else,( i hate that kind of attitude,you see that in every american restraunt  that Beg him to come and help them because they are loosing everything!) He is mostly show,,,most people want drama ,yelling,throwing things,etc.i dont,yet i am in the minority on that.
