Ramsay's Best Menus
Gordon Ramsay
The book accompaniment to Gordon Ramsay's newest show Ramsay's Best Restaurant serves as an excellent tool for the home cook to have. 52 menus are provided, each menu is broken into 3 dishes that can be mixed and matched with other dishes from other menus resulting in a virtually endless array of combinations for any given weeknight. Ramsay's trademark simplified restaurant-quality dishes are presented with beautiful pictures, and the pastry recipes included serve as a prevalent reminder that Gordon himself began as a pastry chef. Binder, 83 pp. $47.95.
Gordon Ramsay's Great Escape
Gordon Ramsay
The British love affair with Indian cooking has long been underway; today dishes like tikka masala and balti curries are as popular and well loved as the more traditional roast beef. In his Great Escape, Gordon Ramsay travels across India tasting dishes and compiling recipes. As well as the usual meat, fish, and vegetarian meals, there are breads, chutneys, accompaniments, snacks and street type food. The usually neglected sweets get a good chapter here too; coconut burfi and rosewater kulfi are typical offerings. There is also a very useful glossary of ingredients and lots of colour pitcures. Hardcover, 272 pp. $34.95.
Gordon Ramsay's Maze
Jason Atherton
This North American edition, full of creative-minded Chef Jason Atherton's recipes, is testament to the inspiration and tutelage that he has received under two masters of the craft - Gordon Ramsay and Ferran Adria. The book is an effective tool for both the professional and home cook, with a creative format where a base ingredient is developed into three different recipes, the first quite professional and the second two more home-cook friendly. Hardcover, 256 pp. $35.00.
Gordon Ramsay's World Kitchen
Gordon Ramsay
The latest offering from Gordon is full of recipes from his tv show The F Word, with each chapter covering a different area of world cuisine.

Full colour pictures to accompany each recipe. Hardcover, 256 pp. $43.95.

Cooking for Friends
Gordon Ramsay
Does this man ever sit down? Always candid, and humorous, he says he took all of his Delia Smith books to Oxfam after he saw her using canned mince (ground beef), he was so disappointed after all the confidence she gave people and the impact she has had on people's cooking.

among us will appreciated the bright graphics and large type. Colour

Following in the wake of Humble Pie (aka Roasting in Hell’s Kitchen, $32.95),

Roasting in Hell's Kitchen
Gordon Ramsay
Titled Humble Pie in the UK, Gordon Ramsay's autobiography is an unflinching look back at a difficult home life, the football career that almost was, and the wildly successful cooking career that is. Yes, he employs the "s" and "f" words almost as frequently in writing as he does in speaking. Colour and black and white photos trace his life from the angelic-looking four year old he was to the furrow-browed businessman he has become. Softcover, 284 pp. $17.50.
Kitchen Heaven
Gordon Ramsay
Using earthy ingredients such as turnip, potatoes, venison and marrow, Ramsay
focuses on flavour rather than flash in recipes that allow him to demonstrate
his culinary insights. Colour photos of both food and Ramsay with his adoring
apprentices. Hardcover, 255 pp, $45.00.

why he deserves his acclaim. Colour. $49.95. Recipe: Apple,
Prune and Butterscotch Compote.
