Renowned Chef Complains About Couples Using Restroom as a "Mile High Bathroom"
Gordon Ramsay has shared a lighthearted but surprising problem he's faced since opening his new restaurant, Lucky Cat, in London's tallest office building at 22 Bishopsgate. Despite the venue's sleek Asian-inspired menu and panoramic city views, Ramsay has encountered an issue that he hadn't anticipated when starting the business.
During an appearance on ITV's The Jonathan Ross Show, the famous chef revealed that the restaurant’s luxurious toilets have become a hotspot for amorous couples. "We’ve got a problem with the toilets," Ramsay explained. "There are lots of couples going in there and treating it like the ‘mile high’ bathroom."
However, the amorous behaviour is not the only thing troubling Ramsay. He also expressed frustration over the restaurant's lucky cat statues, which have been disappearing at an alarming rate. "The cats are getting stolen. There were 477 stolen last week – they cost £4.50 each!" he lamented.
Ramsay's appearance on the show also saw him share a funny incident involving a fan, who gave him a backhanded compliment. "A lady said to me ‘you look so much better in real life and so much taller’," Ramsay chuckled.
As the father of six, Ramsay also discussed his family life, including the prospect of more children with his wife, Tana. With their eldest child now 26 and their youngest just 14 months, Ramsay hinted that their family might be complete. "I’d like to think so, yes," he laughed.
On a happier note, Ramsay revealed that his daughter Holly is preparing for a "Christmas wedding" to Olympic swimmer Adam Peaty. Ramsay praised Peaty, saying, "He’s so grounded. Those two get on so well. It’s a blessing."
