Gordon Ramsay to look for expat ‘kitchen nightmares’

By Dominique Miltiadou

“GORDON Ramsay is coming to help Brits in Europe” is what Channel 4 is saying in its search to find struggling restaurants for its new television programme.

The plan is for the controversial TV chef to help British-owned restaurants all over the continent, including eateries in Cyprus, that will be featured in the new series based on the award-winning programme ‘Ramsay’s Kitchen Nightmares’.

Calling out to those who are “struggling to make ends meet, breaking even or on the brink of bankruptcy” this looks like it will be another drama-filled series.

With 1.7m followers on twitter and his self-description of being “somewhere always near food”, Ramsay has been described as one of the world’s most famous chefs, better known for his “impassioned outbursts.”

His restaurants have also been awarded with several Michelin stars (a hallmark of fine dining quality).

Greece is reportedly the first country the celebrity chef will be visiting between May and June and he has said he is fond of Greek cuisine.

No further information regarding any visit to Cyprus has been disclosed but expats keen to sign up their restaurant for the show can visit http://www.channel4.com/programmes/take-part/articles/all/gordon-ramsay-is-coming-to-help-brits-in-europe .

The Cyprus Mail is the only English-language daily newspaper published in Cyprus. It was established in 1945 and today, with its popular and widely-read website, the Cyprus Mail is among the most trusted news sites in Cyprus. The newspaper is not affiliated with any political parties and has always striven to maintain its independence. Over the past 70-plus years, the Cyprus Mail, with a small dedicated team, has covered momentous events in Cyprus’ modern history, chronicling the last gasps of British colonial rule, Cyprus’ truncated independence, the coup and Turkish invasion, and the decades of negotiations to stitch the divided island back together, plus a myriad of scandals, murders, and human interests stories that capture the island and its -people. Observers describe it as politically conservative.
