Celebrity Chef Gordon Ramsay is not one to mince words. The Scottish television personality, who is known for his acerbic wit and foul tongue has been taking to Twitter to make fun of people's food. That is people who tweet their food pictures to him, hoping for a reply.
Recently, a Mumbai resident and Twitter user who goes by the name Rameez, tweeted to the celebrity chef asking what he thought of a picture of Medu Vada and Sambar that he ordered at an Udupi restaurant in South Mumbai.
@GordonRamsay please rate my medu vada sambar and nariyal chutney pic.twitter.com/9dAcqI5kwD

Rameez, who originally hails from Kolkata, retweeted Chef Ramsay's hilarious response.
I didn't know you can tweet from prison https://t.co/rxrPPBonff

Satisfied with what the celebrity chef had to say, Rameez added that his 'mission had been accomplished.' "I was expecting it. Anyone who's spent enough time on the internet knows what they're in for when they send him a food picture. I wanted a hilarious response and I got it," Rameez told DNA.
Mission Accomplished

Although Rameez sees the funny side of the story, a number of individuals were outraged. Many of them tweeted to Ramsay, saying that he had no taste and a medu wada was better than his 'half-cooked steak'. "People are getting too sensitive about it," Rameez added.
@GordonRamsay Every cuisine that you're ignorant about is not from prison!https://t.co/LlJI65sJD7

@GordonRamsay Well at least this prison food tastes a lot better than your half cooked steak

Funnily, Gordon Ramsay is known to troll people on Twitter, especially those who share food pictures with them. And people have been sporting about his responses, which is why sending food pictures to Chef Ramsay has become a fad just for a response
