BBC documentary reunites Gordon Ramsay, Marco Pierre White and Heston Blumenthal
A new three-part BBC series brings three leading chefs together for a meal: Gordon Ramsay, Marco Pierre White and Heston Blumenthal.
The chefs reunited earlier this year after months of discussions and negotiation.
Their last meeting in a restaurant was in 2003 at Blumenthal’s Fat Duck in Bray, Berkshire.
Ramsay and White, once mentor and protégé, were bitter rivals by then.
A clash at the Fat Duck led to years without speaking, with the pair criticising each other in interviews.
This reunion is the climax of the series, and each chef prepares a course for the meal.
The three stayed long enough to eat together, though the series’ account of how the lunch went is not detailed here.
Gordon Ramsay, Marco Pierre White and Heston Blumenthal reunited for a lunch featured in a new BBC documentary series.
The three-part series is called The Rise Of The Rockstar Chef.
Their previous meeting at Blumenthal’s Fat Duck restaurant in 2003 ended in a furious confrontation between Ramsay and White.
The documentary’s executive producer said months of conversations and negotiations were needed to bring the chefs together.
