Does Mario Have Beef With Gordon Ramsay?

Does Mario Have Beef With Gordon Ramsay?

It seems that Tyler Florence and Andrew Zimmern aren't the only ones to have a public feud. They're in the company of Mario Batali and Gordon Ramsay, who reportedly aren't getting along. According to Page Six, Batali banned the Hell's Kitchen host from entering any of his restaurants after Ramsay began calling him "Fanta Pants" behind his back to make fun of the orange shorts that Batali often sports. The Italian chef told the Guardian, "I've banned him from my restaurants. Ramsay's people call, trying to book tables, and I say no. I won't have him in there." The feud allegedly goes back more than a year, when Batali first dissed Ramsay's food as dull and outdated and declared that the UK chef didn't get New York.

Oh come on an Englishman and a Italian ? the question would be is it a Beef Wellington that seperates the two ? because we know they both can cuss up a storm. Good thing there is not a Frenchman in between them than it could really be a site to see.

Mario has been known to make people feel uncomfortable around him.

He sometimes is a disgruntled mean and nasty little boy!! He's the kind of person who would kick sand in your face at the beach!

They both look like they just rolled out of bed!

Come on...Mario is Italian and we are known for being very passionate and bold in our beliefs. He's just being Mario.

I've seen Gordon on other shows and he is SO different than when he is on Hell's Kitchen. Very personable and calm. He's quite the actor.

I bet they really love each other and this is just a put-on for publicity purposes.

I saw him on a clip just the other day doing RR's talk show. He was calm, joking and not one single beep. He was razzling one lady about her cupcakes tho... but more like a pesky little brother, than the beeping chef of "Hell's Kitchen."
