Gordon Ramsay warns there is one part of a restaurant menu you should never order from

Gordon Ramsay is serving up some sound advice to those who want the fine dining experience with his three 'golden rules' for eating in a restaurant.

When you're next out for some food and believe you can simply order whatever you want from the menu, be warned.

There’s one section of the menu you should never order from, and that’s coming from a certified expert on food.

Ramsay has been giving us his culinary opinion for over 20 years and his restaurant group Gordon Ramsay Restaurants has been awarded 17 Michelin stars overall.

So it's safe to say he knows his stuff.

The 57-year-old is mostly known for his potty-mouthed outbursts on the likes of Hell’s Kitchen and Kitchen Nightmares, and he’s never shied away from telling us what he thinks.

On an episode of the High Performance podcast, host Jake Humphrey asked the chef: "How much did you think about your TV persona?"

To which Ramsay bluntly replied: "I didn't, I didn't give a s**t."

He continued: "It wasn't a format for me, it wasn't about IP or format or success. Remember the first program it was 5.8 million viewers on Channel Four.

"So, then all the intrusion started. Then everyone wanted to know who you were, what was your background, what makes this guy tick?

"I'm like, 'I'm the same on or off'."

In a previous interview with the Daily Mail, Ramsay shared what he's learned from his years in the restaurant industry, and what not to order on the menu.

The restaurant owner spoke about his three golden rules for eating in a restaurant, telling diners they should be wary of any place which throws around 'suspicious boasts' about the quality of their food.

If you hear a restaurant say things like 'famous' or 'best in the country' without any further evidence to back them up, that sets the chef's alarm bells ringing and makes him wonder: "Who said that? Who named that?"

He also shared a trick to getting the best bottles of wine for a bargain price, saying you should ask for the 'bin end' list which is comprised of bottles with scratched labels or vintages which haven't sold well.

He explained that you ask for a bottle of whatever is recommended for no more than $30, as that can get you an under-appreciated splash of wine to your table without costing too much.

However, Ramsay's top tip was all about the one thing you shouldn't pick off the menu when the waiter comes.

It turns out that the dish in question is anything off the specials board, especially if there's a lot of options on there.

He said: "Specials are there to disappear throughout the evening. When they list 10 specials that's not special."

Well, there you have it.
