New Apple TV+ Series From Gordon Ramsay Premieres Next Month

Pay attention, people. As stated in the article, It’s hosted by Jesse Burgess. Ramsay is just producing it. In the trailer it appears to be a more serious documentary which also lifts the veil somewhat for the first time on the Michelin Inspectors and seems to interview them anonymously for how their process works. Actually looks interesting and unlike anything else I’ve seen relating to cooking on TV, and Ramsay is nowhere to be seen in the trailer.

Yes, Burgess is also a lisping nonce z-lister.

Who the heck cares about that? Who the heck is interested in knowing how Michelin ratings work?
 
Tim Cook's spending priorities:

1. Celebrity names for APPLE TV PLUS (Sweet, sweet service revenue!)

99. Bugfixing operating system fundamentals (having a functioning OS is irrelevant to Wallstreet)

I always found it interesting that the most prestigious award in fine dining is issued by an automobile tire company.

If I recall correctly, it started with their salesmen, who would rate restaurants while traveling around selling tyres so they could point their colleagues to good places to eat. There’s a good SYSK podcast about it.
 
It would be more interesting if they got Ramsey on camera to discuss the publicity stunts he performed in chasing his own stars. Ramsay paid someone to "steal" the reservation book from his own restaurant "Aubergine" and framed his former mentor Marco Pierre White for the act. Ramsay later confessed to having staged the whole thing and called it an act of "genius". He also got a BBC crew to hide in the bushes and film him at one of Marco's weddings so he could "prove" how important he was. All of Ramsay's stunts, all of his TV shows and appearances, Marco is still known to be the far superior chef by every conceivable metric.
Also if they get Marco on camera to discuss why he returned all of his stars and denounced the Michelin guide and their stars would be a wonderful counterpoint to the profiles of those chefs actively chasing their stars.
