I haven't been to Vegas since '88, so I'm not up to speed on what all is going on over there

Well lets get him and Gordon in a cookoff competition. The food yesterday was the most amazing I have tasted.

No contest. I bet a 10 tenner he will learn Gordon a few swear words. Mind you Gordon can cook. But jumping full battle suite etc. for real, rochie has the edge. And will have something to eat when one is down there. Take you pick.

Gordon might be able to match Karl with cuss words and be as loud, but Karl probably knows how to kill eight different ways with a rolled newspaper.

He does have a point there.
If I remember the story I just made up, I hear tell that Karl once stabbed Gordon with a filet knife.

At that time working in London restaurants meant working 18hr days 6 or 7 days a week, pay wasnt amazing as they relied on their "name" to attract staff.
Being a chef can be hard enough never mind working those sort of hours, plus drugs were a real problem in kitchens in those days in mid 90's to get you through the week !
I just didnt fancy living like that, dont think i would've ended up getting married to Annmarie, my girlfriend at the time (now my wife of 26 years) too
