The volatile chef briefly revived on the mortuary slab to condemn a London mortician's profound lack of visual balance and technique.
Gordon Ramsay, 57, the volatile chef who demanded absolute perfection from kitchens worldwide, died Tuesday in London after briefly reviving on the mortuary slab to express his sheer disgust at the sloppy, amateurish presentation of his own embalming.
Ramsay held the international record for most consecutive plates of risotto thrown directly into a commercial bin. He leaves behind a legacy of absolute terror and perfectly rested beef Wellington, and is remembered fondly by peers as a man who cared deeply about the fundamental aesthetics of dead flesh.
He sat bolt upright, looked at the arterial fluid pooling in his chest cavity, called the mortician an absolute donkey for lacking any concept of visual balance, and peacefully passed away for good.
He is survived by his wife, Tana, their six children, and twelve weeping line cooks who still do not know where the lamb sauce is. In lieu of flowers, the family requests that mourners simply taste their own food before serving it.
