My good old friend who is living the dream in the USA but missing our fish and chips had a bash at this place

https://www.gordonramsayrestaurants.com/pub-and-gr...

Las Vegas, but Gordon Ramsey. He wanted those $30 fish and chips

YORKSHIRE ALE BATTER FISH & CHIPS*
Cod w/ Fresh Dill Tartar Sauce,
Minted Mushy Peas & Lemon 30 | 29
Pairs Well With Innis & Gunn, Gordon’s Favorite

Yorkshire Ale batter as well, what could go wrong?

here it is



For £20 is that the worst ever? About 7 chips all greasy and soft, a small piece of fish which is mainly the "beer" batter and some condiments. The mushy peas are not even that mushy.

This is how Gordon Ramsey gets a new Ferrari. Suckers like my mate. Very sad.

In the meantime, here's my cod and chips done in no beer batter in my shed. Will cost you about £5



mushy peas thrown in for free and two slices of Warburtons medium sliced to boot!

very shameful as Big and I say Big with a capital B, for Boss, Al would say.

Looks like the stuff he complains about in his 'nightmare' programmes. He should be ashamed.

If I were Ramsay, I'd be ashamed of having my name associated with that.

Then again, I suspect that Las Vegas diners aren't especially your average gourmand........

Au contraire, I suspect most of them are gourmands, hence the popularity of buffets.

That does look rubbish.

Did your mate comment on the taste?

There are no words to explain the feeling of utmost joy that I feel looking at the second picture after looking at the first one.

Next time tell him to go to Fulton Fish Fry in New York New York, or to the crown and anchor English pub on Spring mountain.

I would LOVE to see him review his own nightmare restaurant if that's what they're dishing up.
He'd take one bite then spit it out into a napkin.
fking disgusting.
Then he'd be digging around the back for room-temperature, six-week-old scallops. And the rat droppings.
Then he'd be onto the owner for his failure in life. I dunno, rancorous divorce? Major investor turned tail? God complex?
Break him down and rebuild.
Him and Jamie Oliver. Oh and Antonio Carluccio.

Most of Ramsey's non-michelin stuff that I've experienced is somewhere between average and awful, rarely at the higher end of the spectrum. The Burgr place in vegas is passable, but not even close to being the best on the strip - never mind in Vegas. The 3 michelin starred places of his I've had the pleasure of have all been knockout though.

Agree on Fulton's in NYNY, it's pretty good, but I always have a hard time walking any further than Greenberg's deli when in there - that's a real guilty pleasure for me.

Yes, but if the buffet is also $30 and you can have 4 of those lumps of fish... you'll forgive a lot for half-decent food at a fair price.

That looks rancid.

The USA, Australia, New Zealand and many others may have a better climate, more space etc but they cannot defeat our beautiful British Fish & Chips biggrin

Is he on Twitter?

I'd genuinely like to see him respond to that. You watch Kitchen Nightmares and he would tear through someone for bringing that out so I'd be very interested to see how he can justify it in his own place.

I've nothing against him at all and have always quite enjoyed his programmed but you really have to be doing it better than the other guy if you're going to take the high ground.

To be fair the buffets in the casinos are pretty excellent.

The Gordon Ramsey place in terminal 5 is passable (for an airport) but all these celebrity chefs lose all their limited cred once they start whoring their names out to crappy fast food joints, because let's face it, that's all they are.

He is @GordonRamsey on Twitter, I think he should be shamed into a response.
