Who is Your Favourite Celebrity Chef?
Celebrity chefs are in the news this week, what with Jamie Oliver launching his Feed Your Family For A Fiver campaign yesterday and Channel 4 announcing a new show where Heston Blumenthal will attempt to revive the Little Chef chain. Gordon Ramsay is opening Plane Food at Heathrow Airport's Terminal 5 today and he's also been talking about the new US series of Hell's Kitchen.
Chefs are in the public eye more than ever before: in addition to all the cooking-related TV shows, they're appearing at food festivals across the country — Gary Rhodes will be at the London Taste Festival and Raymond Blanc will be at the Real Food Festival.

Actually, of the five chefs, only the recipes from the two women chefs were considered overly complicated.
