Reviews

‘Gordon Ramsay’s Humble Pie – so exuberantly angry boastful, cliche-ridden, expletive-laden and touchingly sincere that I can’t believe that a single sentence has been written by anyone but the failed footballer, great cook, telly star and businessman himself. He’s the genuine bollocks, as he’s so fond of saying, and this is the tale of his personal class struggle.’ – The Observer

'Inspirational stuff.' Heat

‘A mesmerising tale. It reads like a conversation and exudes personality. Ramsay finds it hard to dodge the f-word, but despite the defensiveness that comes accross, the book is an inspiration.’ Irish Examiner

Love it!. I didn't care much for the cursing but I wouldn't expect anything less. His story is inspirational.

Awesome read !!. Gordon is my favorite chef, and reading this book about his struggles trying to make it inspire me greatly, and gives me more rapport with the great chef.

Great Book. This is great book to understand Chef Ramsay, the why and how his begins in the industry. He is one the most talented Chefs in the world and the book make a lot of sense to get to know the person behind the Chef.

Great read. I used to not like Gordon Ramsey, mainly because I would see a guy with an accent yelling at people on TV. Then I started watching his shows and realized the guy is a genius! He has a passion for food and success! I now love and respect him as a person first (because of this book) and as a chef second based on his accomplishments at such a young age! I would love to meet him! Great read!

Great book. Gordon Ramsay had a more interesting life than I expected.The writing is just okay but the story is great

Great!. Way to go Chef Ramsey!! I enjoyed reading your book, and love your charisma as well as personality.

Teacher. The book was very well written. I encourage any one to read it. Gordon Ramsay did a good job writhing his book. It will give anyone hope to continue a joining in cooking is never too late to start exploring in the kitchen. It will be a pleasure to meet Mr. Ramsay same day.

Loved it!. I already loved Ramsay before this book, and I love him more now. Hearing where he’s come from and how he worked hard to get where he is not is inspiring. Such a good read.

Not bad.... Not a bad book, although wasn't aware it was a quick read book. Not sure how long the regular book is? Also, a shame that there are so many pages towards the end of the book that are empty or with useless 'sales' info. Shortens an already short book...

Gordon Ramsey. Great book

Good read. This book gives a delightful insight to the humble beginnings that Gordon Ramsey had and how he has been shaped to become the person he is today. Well worth reading x

Mind Blowing, Inspirational & Success. I can Dream & Achieve

Ramsey. Could be longer read for the money

Humble pie - Gorden Ramsey. Good read, very interesting on how his childhood was like and how he got to where he is now, very inspiring man.

Disappointed. I was disappointed to find out that this wasn't even the full book, it's only half the book what a waste of my money!!

Well written. Ace!. Really straight to the point and as if I were speaking with Gordon himself. Wonderful!

Good read, although too short.. Enjoyed this insight into the background of Gordon Ramsay. I must say that, despite the low price, I wasn't expecting it to be all over quite so quickly.

Short. A little short. Go for Playing With Fire instead.

A great iBook to start with : ). So much I didn't know about sir Ramsey

Easy read. Very interesting, a great quick read. I enjoyed learning more about one of my favorite chefs.

Well Done!. I am not a huge Gordon Ramsey fan but I found I read through this quickly, not only because it was short, but because I enjoyed the entire book. Being in the hospitality industry, I found Ramsey to be both inspirational and motivational with the occasional surprising nugget of wisdom. Well worth the read, especially for $2.99.

Interesting. This is a really quick read. It's nice to read a true story of hard work paying off in the end!

It's only a third of the book?. Where does it say that this is condensed?

Humble Pie. A fun bubble gum read, that will help you get a better understanding of chef Ramsey. Entertaining !

Great book. Loved this book and love his success stories. It's so him!
