A celebrity chef on the scale of Gordon Ramsay, the notoriously acerbic and vulgar British chef, can bring cooking into any sphere, and the Michelin-starred foodsmith has done just that with the new 'Restaurant Dash with Gordon Ramsay' iOS game. The game features worldwide cooking challenges, but the real appeal is in getting to hear all of Ramsay's snide and cutting insult delivered through the guise of his cartoonish avatar.
In terms of gameplay, Restaurant Dash with Gordon Ramsay features several different kitchen venues (centered around ethnic food themes like a New Zealand 'Kiwi Cottage') where players face off against one another through cooking challenges that require precision, timing, and accuracy. Of course, the app was created in collaboration with the real-life Ramsay, so it includes recordings in which he shouts his trademark insults.
