Gordon Ramsay sends chef to help Biggleswade school canteen
Celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay sent one of his own team to a short-staffed school Canteen - After a plea on national radio.
Kitchen manager Tina Clarke called in After listening to The Chef talk about his latest BBC TV show, on the Radio 2 Breakfast Show.
She told presenter Vernon Kay she was " cooking on her own here" at Edward Peake Middle School in Biggleswade.
One of Ramsay's cooks, Rob Roy Cameron , put in a " brilliant" shift, She Said .
Ms Clarke asked for help as she prepared school meals for 300 pupils at the Bedfordshire school.
She told The Show : " I'm cooking here on My Own , I work in a school kitchen and my chef has gone off sick and I have Another One off with Covid, and I just wondered if Gordon would Help Me today and give me a hand? "
The TV chef immediately responded with: " If I did have The Time I would be in Bedfordshire, I Promise you in a heartbeat, I can send a chef if you wish? "
Ms Clarke sounded surprised and snapped up the " lovely" offer instantly.
Ms Clarke said she was not really expecting him to send a chef and feared she would get into trouble at school.
" When I got a message saying your chef will be With You in an hour, I thought, 'Oh My God , I'm going to have to fess up to The Head and I hope she doesn't give me detention or lines', " She Said .
" Everyone went - 'what have you done'? "
She Said The Head teacher, Miss Linington, allowed Mr Cameron into The Kitchen , which " sent a huge buzz around The School , it was brilliant".
He was put to work straight away making cauliflower cheese for the that teaches pupils in Year 5 to Year 8.
" I'm sure he was terrified by having three menopausal women around him in The Kitchen all day, " she added.
" The Kids were so excited. "
His food tasted " amazing" even though he was not allowed to use salt, to his shock, she added.
" We've never had so many visitors [in The Kitchen ]" Ms Clarke said.
She could not thank both The Chefs enough, as well as her loyal staff, " Andrea, Mandy, Sharon and Louise".
