Chapter 1: What inspired the host to eat only Gordon Ramsay's food for 24 hours?

0.031 - 6.999 Nick DiGiovanni

I just flew all the way to London to eat only Gordon Ramsay's food for 24 hours. I did let Gordon know I was in town, and here's what he wrote back.

7.159 - 19.554 Gordon Ramsay

Hey Nick, it's Gordon, your favorite chef. First of all, sorry I can't be with you across this London tour, but I promise you, you're going to love it. This visit is going to confirm how good Great Britain is. So best of luck, and I can't wait to see you soon. And stop selling that salt.

19.894 - 21.516 Unknown

Osmosalt. It's the saltiest.

21.597 - 33.196 Nick DiGiovanni

Today I'll get to taste his famous beef wellington and sticky toffee pudding, among many other things, all in his great home country of England. But there's one strict rule I have to follow. Nothing can be consumed outside the borders of Gordon Ramsay's restaurants. Let's go.

33.477 - 46.238 Nick DiGiovanni

It's 8.30 in the morning and we're starting our day at Bread Street Kitchen, which is supposed to be a lively and exciting restaurant. It lives on the street that used to have the city's bread market, so I'm hoping that we might get some good carbs in this morning. We're starting off plain and simple with the English breakfast,

46.218 - 62.223 Nick DiGiovanni

Looks like we got some of these scrambled eggs, some grilled tomato, mushrooms, some sort of hash brown, a big old sausage, some English-style bacon, and some baked beans. My question is how exactly am I supposed to be eating an English breakfast? Do I just kind of eat across the whole plate? Or is there an actual method to eating an English breakfast? I have no idea.

65.387 - 79.315 Nick DiGiovanni

I'm a huge fan of the classic English breakfast, and I'll tell you why. You literally just get to eat a little bit of everything. I'm gonna start ordering this more. Naturally, you had to know that Gordon Ramsay scrambled eggs are the best in the business. If you wanna be a good boy, run upstairs now and give it to her in bed, the breakfast.

79.335 - 93.055 Nick DiGiovanni

In between this, I'm gonna go ahead with my Bloody Mary. I know Bloody Marys are a real hot topic. It's either yes or no for most people, but I'm a Bloody Mary person all the way. Next up, we have these amazing-looking ricotta pancakes. On this one, I'm gonna make sure I get a bite of everything that's on the plate.

93.175 - 99.418 Nick DiGiovanni

Some banana, some blueberry, some of that butter, plenty of maple syrup, and of course, some actual pancake. Oh man, that's good.

Chapter 2: What does an English breakfast at Gordon Ramsay's restaurant include?

99.438 - 118.003 Nick DiGiovanni

Honestly, I think my favorite thing here is the butter. I'm not really sure what they're putting inside it, but whatever it is, it's delicious. I'll wash that all down with a nice mimosa, and then I will bring in my third and final dish of the day, some nice Eggs Benedict, my favorite. Obviously the elephant in the room, is the yolk gonna pop perfectly? Let's find out. Oh, that was amazing.

0

118.023 - 132.132 Nick DiGiovanni

That is the brightest yolk I've ever seen. Oh, that is just, that's why they call it yolk. Adult content. That's another thing that I love about London is that the egg yolks are always so bright. I'm pretty sure it means they feed their chickens more peppers. But Brandon, I'm going to let you fact check me on that one.

0

134.609 - 146.51 Nick DiGiovanni

I'm going to have to say that without a question, my favorite here was the English breakfast. It had a little bit of everything, and each individual bite was delicious. We're going to be eating, but also walking through London a lot today, so I'm going to finish it with some cappuccino, and we're on to our next spot.

146.55 - 155.446 Nick DiGiovanni

It's 10 a.m., and for brunch, we're headed to the Savoy Hotel to get the Beef Wellington. Watch out, Eddie. Sorry. I actually came here a long time ago during MasterChef, when we had the finale here in London.

0

156.168 - 156.448

Guys, come on!

157.272 - 175.423 Nick DiGiovanni

It's a super fancy hotel and I think the food is going to be pretty good. The Beef Wellington was good. Probably the best one I've ever had. But we didn't want to eat too much just to save space for the rest of the day. It's 12.30 PM, which means it's lunchtime. And we're at Gordon Ramsay Street Pizza. Before we eat our pizza, apparently we can go inside here. Try to pick up the phone, I think.

175.843 - 179.087 Nick DiGiovanni

Let's see. Hello? You donut.

179.107 - 190.08 Unknown

Are you stupid? I'm seriously disappointed. This is a horribly aggressive phone booth. Hello? Gordon? You got anything to say to me, say it to my face, not my back. And off. What a bozo.

191.933 - 209.019 Nick DiGiovanni

The star of the show at this restaurant is supposedly one thing, and that's bottomless pizza slices. I'm gonna prepare with an espresso martini. It's one of my favorite drinks out there, but ironically, I usually only have them at night. Again, since we're only eating today, I'm gonna have a few more midday drinks. This one's the hard lemonade. Super tasty and not too sweet.

Chapter 3: How does the host describe the Beef Wellington experience?

378.217 - 391.219 Nick DiGiovanni

and I like it. It is now 3 p.m. We are here at Gordon Ramsay Street Burger for an afternoon snack. Just like we couldn't jump from breakfast straight to lunch, we can't jump straight from lunch to dinner. We need to have something fun in between. Even later in the afternoon, it's poppin' at this restaurant.

391.239 - 402.154 Nick DiGiovanni

We're gonna order the Hell's Kitchen Burger, which seems to be the star burger on the menu here, with a nice side of regular french fries. We're taking our street burger for takeout, and I came to visit my favorite bookstore in London to eat it. That's why I'm talking so quietly.

402.254 - 417.771 Nick DiGiovanni

The first time I ever visited London, I remember coming to this cookbook section and dreaming that one day I'd write a cookbook of my very own. And as you now know, it actually happened. Go and pre-order Night Drop featuring Gore Ramsay. And for pre-orders only, we're donating 10 meals to those in need through the FarmLink project. With the goal of donating 1 million meals.

417.791 - 435.777 Nick DiGiovanni

Despite all the food I've eaten, I'm still hungry, so I'm going to eat my burger. It's 6 30 now and we've arrived at lucky cat for dinner It's got remarkably good reviews online for its asian inspired cuisine. The first bite of the night is this scallop crudo I am one of those rare people that like scallops better when they're raw not cooked. That's unbelievable Our next bite is a tuna tartare.

436.318 - 452.944 Nick DiGiovanni

Oh my god The whole thing was wrapped in a shiso leaf Which if you haven't tried it is this very unique almost sort of lemony leaf that you often get with japanese food This right here is squash tempura Just from the crunch alone, you should know this is good. And this here is a delicious looking sashimi. Just the start of a lot of sashimi we're going to have this evening.

Chapter 4: What unique pizza offerings can you find at Gordon Ramsay Street Pizza?

452.964 - 468.349 Nick DiGiovanni

This is their JFC. It's supposedly fried chicken that you can't leave here without trying. Of all the food we've had today, this one tasted the most different from what I thought it would taste like by looking at it. It has a really unique sauce, but all they give us for the description is hot Korean miso and black sesame. Mysterious.

468.329 - 487.384 Nick DiGiovanni

this is the sashimi selection on here we have salmon yellowtail akami chutoro and sea blue chutoro is the wagyu of the sea it doesn't get better than this literally melts in your mouth that is also a perfect looking piece of tuna and some yellowtail and of course you can't forget the wasabi are you crazy are you out of your mind

487.6 - 505.019 Nick DiGiovanni

Next up is the duck leg bao, which they prepare table side and honestly, it makes you drool the whole time you have to watch. It even has the restaurant logo on the front. This is a much awaited bite. Oh my god, that is so good. One of the coolest plates I've seen the entire day. I wanna taste this lobster. In all seriousness, you could eat this dish right here without any teeth.

0

505.039 - 522.138 Nick DiGiovanni

I've had lobster my whole life and this is the most tender lobster I've ever had. I've got some really good honey and mint jelly lamb lollipops in my new cookbook. Let's see if Gordon can make lamb lollipops better than I can. Damn, he might have me beat. Just like the duck bao buns, the egg fried rice was prepped table-side, and right as that yolk popped, I knew it was gonna be good.

522.158 - 536.674 Nick DiGiovanni

What I love about a fried rice like this is that they have some really nice, perfect, crispy bits of rice, almost like a Persian tadig. Can't leave here without trying these pork dumplings. The actual filling in these dumplings has a lot more of a complex flavor than a regular dumpling you might have, which is delicious, but these are just very different.

536.694 - 543.882 Nick DiGiovanni

I actually can't tell which I prefer better, something plain or something more complex like this. By the way, this is the cute little cat that they let you rest your chopsticks on.

543.862 - 571.148 Nick DiGiovanni

of people steal these not us though gordon not us it's 8 30 p.m and we're at head and street kitchen for dessert only head and street is described as gordon ramsay's sleek european brasserie featuring an eclectic menu in an airy modern space sticky toffee pudding time i've been waiting for this since the moment we arrived Oh my god, that is heaven.

571.188 - 594 Nick DiGiovanni

It's a hot, spongy cake that tastes like brown butter with vanilla ice cream and this toffee butterscotch sauce. It's perfect. It's 11 p.m., our final stop of the day, Hidden Heaven, a little cocktail bar that's hidden down here where we'll have a cocktail to close out the day.

594.959 - 599.839 Unknown

Of course, yeah.
