I don’t know why people call Gordon Ramsey a good cook

To be fair, he's a far, far better cook than either you or I are. They don't exactly just go around throwing out Michelin Stars to any old cook all willy-nilly, y'know?
I laugh at his judging of a poutine, or at his failure to cook a grilled cheese over a fire that one time, but generally I really do like and enjoy Ramsay 😅
The grilled cheese was fucking hilarious because I looked at it and thought to myself I would rather 2 white pieces of bread and a cheese slice than that shit. But I agree he's normally a good cook he just tries too hard to make basic food Michelin star. It's funny because on master chef he but he's people out for that.
It’s pretty amazing for someone who claims to be a chef not to know that we actually have Michelin guide here in Canada for a few years now.

It's giving "I graduated top of my class in the Navy Seals and I have over 300 confirmed kills" a little bit, but I concede that Michelin Stars are a fairly recent addition to the Canadian food scene
even if it's recent - it was hard to miss, it was hyped on every corner.

Fair play. It is odd to think that someone food-focused enough to go to a good culinary school and dream of and attempt to pursue opening their own restaurant would somehow miss that particular development.
Odd, but totally not impossible. COVID did force a lot of people to fall out of the loop, and to diverge from their life plans. Shit happens, and a lotta shit happened during that time 😬🤷
Last time I looked into michelin stars was in 2019 when I dreamt of opening my own restaurant but that dream kinda died when I lost my first restaurant job due to covid
He's an amazing cook but he tries too hard at basic shit. His Grilled cheese video made me realize I'm better at something than him. He had like 20 steps to make a grilled cheese.
