Let me start by saying chef Marco Pierre White is the only man to make Gordon Ramsey cry. Ha!I'm a huge fan of his restaurants, food & his character.
He began his training in the kitchen at the Hotel St George in Harrogate, North Yorkshire and later at the Box Tree in Ilkley, West Yorkshire. Arriving in London as a 16-year-old with "£7.36, a box of books and a bag of clothes" he began his classical training as a commis under Albert Roux and Michel Roux at Le Gavroche, a period that would lead Albert to describe him as "my little bunny".
At 24, Marco became Head Chef and joint owner of Harveys with a kitchen staff that included the young Gordon Ramsay and Heston Blumenthal.
He was awarded his third Michelin star at the age of 33 - the first British and youngest chef ever to achieve this.
