Gordon Ramsay visits The Cookbook Store
Yes, we were delighted to have Chef Ramsay drop by the store after hours and sign copies of Fast Food, so if you are a die hard fan and would love a signed copy don't wait, come in and pick one up, they'll go fast! Chef Ramsay was charming, full of anecdotes and passionate about food.
Don't miss Alison yet again with Gordon, as both are guests on CityLine with Marilyn Dennis on Monday, April 28th.
