Everyone thinks they know the real Gordon Ramsay: rude, loud,
pathologically driven, stubborn as hell. But this is his
bestselling real story... Humble Pie tells the full story of how he
became the world's most famous and infamous chef: his difficult
childhood, his brother's heroin addiction and his failed first
career as a footballer: all of these things have made him the
celebrated culinary talent and media powerhouse that he is today.
Gordon talks frankly about: his tough childhood: his father's
alcoholism and violence and the effects on his relationships with
his mother and siblings, his first career as a footballer: how the
whole family moved to Scotland when he was signed by Glasgow
Rangers at the age of fifteen, and how he coped when his career was
over due to injury just three years later, his brother's heroin
addiction. Gordon's early career: learning his trade in Paris and
London; how his career developed from there: his time in Paris
under Albert Roux and his seven Michelin-starred restaurants.
Kitchen life: Gordon spills the beans about life behind the kitchen
door, and how a restaurant kitchen is run in Anthony
Bourdain-style. How he copes with the impact of fame on himself and
his family: his television career, the rapacious tabloids, and his
own drive for success.
