Early Career

Gordon initially set out to be a football player but was often haunted by injuries.

Whilst working in the restaurants, he was known as “the football player with a gammy knee”.

So, at age 19, he decided to give proper attention to his culinary career.

He spent his early years studying classic French cooking techniques, bouncing around restaurants in London and Paris, working with some of the most influential chefs in the world.

Gordon found his way to work under the temperamental chef Marco Pierre White at the Harveys.

He worked there for two years and decided to move to Paris to study French cuisine.

But White insisted that he work for Albert Roux at the Le Gavroche in Mayfair before taking a job in Paris.

There Gordon quickly became Alberts number two. After working at the Le Gavroche for a year, the 23 Year Old Ramsay moved to Paris.

In Paris, Ramsay worked with Michelin-starred chefs Guy Savoy and Joel Robuchon for three years.

Head Chef

After a year as a private chef on a yacht, Gordon returned to London in 1993 and was soon offered a head chef position under Pierre Coffman at the La Tante Claire in Chelsea.

And soon enough, Gordon’s old boss and mentor Marco Pierre White offered to set him up as the head chef and 10% share at the Rossmore.

Gordon accepted the offer and renamed the restaurant Aubergine and 14 months later won his first Michelin Star.

The Aubergine won its second Michelin Star in 1997.

But due to disagreements about the business modality of Aubergine, Gordon left in 1998 to open his own restaurant the same year.
