Gordon Ramsay Is Coming To Greece

Gordon James Ramsay, OBE is a Scottish celebrity chef, restaurateur and television personality. His restaurants have been awarded 15 Michelin stars in total and currently hold 14.


Optomen Television, the BAFTA-winning producers of Channel 4’s Ramsay’s Kitchen Nightmares, is producing a brand new series to be set in Greece. The show’s producers are currently looking for restaurants, hotels and B&B’s in Greece who would like some help from the World’s most famous chef.

Series Producer Nicola Lloyd says “This series will see Gordon travel to Europe’s holiday hotspots to help Brit-owned restaurants, hotels and B&Bs that are struggling to make ends meet.  We’d love to hear from any owners, managers or head chefs who feel they could benefit from Gordon’s help and advice.”



The series will be filmed during May and June and will be broadcast on Channel 4 later in the year.
