Nigella  http://www.lightstalkers.org/images/show/513537" rel="nofollow">  There are more flattering pics out there but she's shown in her kitchen. Just noticed a sous chef in the background, wait a second, that's not Gordon is it?  |

Ramsay .. he'd kick Oliver's ass in a streetfight and near as I can tell he can cook circles around him too (but I'd have to actually taste both their food, to be fair) |

Both irritate the crap out of me when they're on TV (Nigella the posh dumpling does too). I haven't eaten in a Ramsey restaurant, but I have tried cooking his recipes - they are dreadfully difficult to follow and get right. Jamie recipes on the other hand work perfectly and are dead easy to follow. I've eaten in two of his restaurants and they were a foodie heaven without being stuffy and pretentious. So Jamie gets my vote. ------------- What? |

Jamie Oliver. My Mrs. loves cooking and cooking shows. We went to London to be on a tv programme called Market Kitchen. She went on it again the following year with her sister. The celebrity chef was Giorgio Locatelli it was good fun but a LONG day! ------------- Tony C. |

I've got one of Jamie's books and more than that I have actually used it, He seems pretty genuine to me, even though he is a tad irritating. Ramsey is in his own vernacular a complete c**t ! The 'Posh Dumpling' makes me laugh. ------------- Help me I'm falling! |

I haven't actually seen or have any cookbooks by any of those three. One cookbook I have with what I consider to be really difficult recipes is a Rick Bayless Mexican one, so I nicknamed him Rick Painintheass. Actually I was just flipping through the book and there are some easy ones. Rustic Ranch Style Soup with tomato, jalapeno, and avacado is wonderful when you have a cold. The most difficult one I tried is his Essential Simmered Guajillo Sauce. It came out really good though. You actually fry the sauce. to finish it. We have this chef in Atlanta, Paul Luna, who has a reputation for getting very upset if you ask for salt and pepper at the table. ------------- Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

I only knew Jamie by name and just checked him because I certainly was not going to vote for Gordon. He gets my vote. I like how simple Jamie's recipes are. And I saw a chicken parmesan recipe on youtube on which he poured a bit of balsamic vinegar... three seconds before I was about to eat my own dinner (pork tenderloin). So I added some too on my meat, and it's the greatest idea since sliced bread. My meals just got a whole lot better thanks to Jamie. |

As many times as I've seen it and heard the man brag about it, I would want to try Ramsay's Beef Wellington.

James Martin has a version using pancakes instead of prosciutto ham to wrap the meat before encasing it in pastry - that soaks up the meat juices while cooking and stops the pastry going soggy on the bottom (and no-one likes a soggy bottom  ). Jamie Oliver has a cheaper version that uses ground beef instead of fillet - sort of a meat loaf en croûte but without the cereal binder/filler and of course that needs longer cooking and can't be eaten quite as rare as the fillet version.------------- What? |

2 polAR opposites
I vote Jamie the nice guy rather than the arrogant egotistical Ramsay. -------------

I understand that some people do need an a****le to set them straight, but Gordon Ramsay is just a gimmick.
Jamie. EDIT: Woops, didn't read poll question.  Oh well, Jamie would still get my vote. |

Gordan Ramsey by a mile. They are both great cooks but I watched a Christmas Special Gordon did where he was cooking for family and friends (and cooking with his kids) and his passion for cooking is tremendous. Been trying to get to his Los Angeles restaurant as my wife is fan. She likes Nigella too but for the sound of her vice mostly. For watching someone cook cannot beat Giada (I know she is American but....) -------------

| One simple idea that my wife got from Jamie Oliver was roast chicken in the oven with grape tomatoes, olive oil, garlic (and I think he used basil, but I prefer rosemary) - she made it the other night, it was just so delicious. |

She has her own show on the Food Network. It is usually on at 10 am or so PST. Called Giada at Home I believe. http://www.foodnetwork.com/giada-at-home/index.html" rel="nofollow - http://www.foodnetwork.com/giada-at-home/index.html She is the Grand Daughter of legendary film maker Dino De Laurentiis. She also has a degree in social anthropology from UCLA. -------------

 But in all seriousness (yes I can be serious) I've watched more than a few of her shows and she's not annoying and is a skilled cook. Rachel Ray, don't get me started on Rachel. I'm sure she's a good cook but her omnipresence has become annoying. ------------- Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

Close to my house is a restaurant that Gordon Ramsay used to work in. It's way too expensive for me and I don't have the clothes to get in. Also close to my house is one of those Jamie Oliver stores where you can take cooking classes or have them a cook a meal or something like that. Jamie Oliver annoys me less and his ideas for Christmas turkey left overs inspired my brother to make me food. I like this Jamie Oliver.
