While I eschew the histrionics of most of Gordon Ramsey's television programs, I love this series. His knowledge and experiences are valuable, and he shares them enthusiastically in this series.
I have been successful in recreating all the dishes I tried, and bought the book which accompanies the series which contains even more information such as knowing how and when to buy fresh produce, choosing cuts of meat, and using spices and seasonings. Highly recommend.
