Josh Emett - The Untold Story Of Gordon Ramsay's Right-Hand Man Who Won Michelin Stars Across Three Continents

From a remote dairy farm in New Zealand to the most feared kitchens in the world, this week we're joined by one of the greatest chefs you've probably never heard enough about. Josh Emett spent over a decade as Gordon Ramsay's right-hand man, helping lead Michelin-starred restaurants across London, New York, LA and beyond before returning home to build one of New Zealand's most celebrated restaurant groups. Josh takes us inside the reality of life at Restaurant Gordon Ramsay during its golden era, working alongside chefs like Paul Ainsworth and James Knappett, the pressure of chasing Michelin stars, opening iconic restaurants like The Savoy Grill, and the brutal kitchen culture that shaped him. He also shares incredible stories from New York, including running Gordon's restaurants through union disputes, launching Michelin-starred kitchens in America and why working for Ramsay was equal parts terrifying and exhilarating. We also dive into what life looks like after leaving one of the biggest names in hospitality. Josh explains how he built a thriving restaurant empire in New Zealand, why he's rethinking how hospitality businesses should be run, and the financial model that's transforming staff culture. Plus, we hear about cooking with Gwyneth Paltrow at her house, judging MasterChef New Zealand, and why Michelin finally arriving in New Zealand is such a landmark moment.
