    One thing I love about Gordon, is that whenever you’re in his kitchen he’s the big dog. But as soon as he steps into someone else’s kitchen he becomes the student again, very respectful and willing to learn.

      If you have never worked in kitchen then maybe that is something incredible for you. It's normal for every chef, when he is not on his turf, just listen to your boss, don't argue. He's your supervisor and he is responsible for food the goes to customer.

    There is a simple reason why Gordon's dumpling didn't pass the head chef's scrutiny. Dim Sum is predominantly a Cantonese or Southern Chinese cooking, and Southern Chinese cooking puts great emphasis on subtlety. The roast duck in the dumpling predictably overwhelms both the subtle flavour and delicate texture of the shrimp and scallop. That piece of garlic was also unnecessary and overkill for steamed dumpling. It's all about balance.

    What I like about Ramsay is that when he's in front of other masters he doesn't let the ego affect his cooking ability. Like it's clear he still has an ego regarding his cooking, he's pretty good after all, and he also acknowledges he still has more to learn. Very easy to not let go of the ego after you're as accomplished as he is. It comes off as a joking friend vs something to fight against.

    Gordon actually misses the point of "Dim Sum" when he says"... keeping [the mix veggie] nice and whole so you can identify it".

    Gordon on the other hand is showing a lot of respect and didn't try to use his status or anything but instead accepted the criticism and praised the cookings they had there
    It was nice to see that. Gordon is ruthless but he does respect others when he is in their kitchen and place and he does listen as well. It was nice to see, its very difficult too and certainly not easy to just accept something like this

Wise enough to know that even if you teach someone who may be better than you later is a still a representation of you and selfless as it’s a gift to others. And humble enough to know you’re not the best at everything and find inspiration by what others do so well. It only makes you better and fuels that drive to succeed.

Lemon/lime is used more in southeast cuisine than Cantonese dimsum restaurants.

      If you are talking about the lady in the pink she isn't a server. Her name is Fuschia Dunlop and is one of the most respected writers, critics and cooks of Chinese food. She was the first westerner to train as a chef at the Sichuan Institute of Higher Cuisine in Chengdu. She is the author of five books, including the autobiographical Shark's Fin and Sichuan Pepper (2008). According to Julia Moskin in the New York Times, Dunlop "has done more to explain real Chinese cooking to non-Chinese cooks than anyone". She is on another level but was acting as a bridge between Gordon and the Chef - she speaks Chinese fluently and understands the food as much as the chef!
