Not a sausage. That is what Gordon Ramsay had when he started out as a chef, working 16-hour days, 6 days a week. When he was struggling to get his first restaurant in the black, he didn't think he'd be famous for a TV show about how to run profitable eateries, or that he'd be head of a business empire. But he is and he did. Here's how. "In the beginning there was nothing. Not a sausage - penniless, broke, fucking nothing - and although, at a certain age, that didn't matter hugely, there came a time when hand-me-downs, cast-offs and football boots of odd sizes all pointed to a problem that seemed to have afflicted me, my mum, my sisters, Ronnie and the whole lot of us. It was as though we had been dealt the 'all-time dysfunctional' poker hand. I wish I could say that, from this point on, the penny dropped and I decided to do something about it, but it wasn't like that. It would take years before the lessons of life, business and money began to click into place - before, as they say, I had a pot to piss in. This is the story of how those lessons were learned." This is Gordon Ramsay at his raw, rugged best. PLAYING WITH FIRE is the amazing story of Gordon's journey from sous-chef to superstar. In his no-holds-barred style, Gordon shares his passion for risk and adventure and his hard-won success secrets.

Softcover. Zustand: Fine. Leichte Kratzer / Abnutzungen / Druckstellen; Leichte Gebrauchsspuren; Leichte Verformung / umgeknickte Seiten; Leichte Verschmutzung / Farbtonveranderung. Not a sausage. That's what Gordon Ramsay had when he began his journey as a chef, enduring 16-hour days, six days a week. Struggling to make his first restaurant profitable, he never imagined he would become famous for a TV show on running successful eateries or lead a business empire. Yet, he did. Starting from nothing--penniless and broke--Ramsay faced challenges that pointed to a deep-seated dysfunction in his family. Although he wished for an epiphany to change his circumstances, it took years for the lessons of life, business, and money to resonate. This narrative reveals how those lessons were ultimately learned. In this compelling account, Ramsay shares his journey from sous-chef to superstar in his characteristic no-holds-barred style. He discusses his passion for risk and adventure and divulges the secrets behind his hard-won success. With a collection of internationally acclaimed restaurants in London, boasting ten Michelin stars, and additional locations in Dubai, Tokyo, New York, and Florida, Ramsay has established himself as a culinary titan. He is also the author of nine best-selling cookbooks and an autobiography, Humble Pie. As one of the UK's biggest television personalities, he is known for hit shows like Ramsay's Kitchen Nightmares, Hell's Kitchen, and The F Word. In 2006, he was awarded an OBE.
