My worries about eating at Gordon Ramsay at the London West Hollywood, from a previous post, proved to be unfounded. Our lunch turned out to be wonderful. We knew it would be a bit expensive going in, but, afterwards, I felt that it was well worth the splurge.
Here are a few of the highlights from our dining. I started with an asparagus risotto that was amazing. It was finished with mascarpone and aged Parmesan. So, good! I also had, what had to be ranked toward the top of the best steaks I have ever had. It was a seared rib eye steak with horse radish pomme puree and truffle sauce. Just delicious! Sarah had a chicken dish that was really great too. Her highlight was the dessert. She loves grapefruit, so she tried the grapefruit sorbet with a grapefruit foam. She loved it.
So, the next time we watch "Hell's Kitchen" and see Gordon Ramsay yelling at his chef's, I will better understand that he knows exactly what he is doing. The food that comes out of a Gordon Ramsay kitchen is truly world class.
