CELEBRITY CHEF, Gordon Ramsay was in Doolin this week as he made his way across to the Aran Islands.

Since rising to fame on the British television miniseries Boiling Point in 1999, Ramsay has been one of the best-known and most influential chefs in the world.

On Tuesday, the fifty six year old was travelling with a Clare company, Doolin Ferry Co as he made his way to Inis Oírr.

Episodes three and four of the popular Next Level Chef, the American culinary reality competition on Fox are being filmed at a purpose-built, brand new sound stage at Ashford Studios.

Gordon’s trip to the Aran Islands is for filming for an upcoming cookery show. While travelling with the O’Brien owned Doolin Ferry Co, the restaurateur even managed to steer the ferry for a brief period.

His restaurant group, Gordon Ramsay Restaurants, was founded in 1997 and has been awarded 17 Michelin stars overall; it currently holds a total of seven. His signature restaurant, Restaurant Gordon Ramsay in Chelsea, London, has held three Michelin stars since 2001.
