Dear Gordon
Dear Gordon, I just wanted to know that whilst on a recent business trip to Las Vegas, my husband a business colleague and I went to your restaurant Ramsay´s Kitchen in Harrah´s. My colleague and I shared a half dozen oysters, followed by scallops for our main courses. My husband had something different which he said was nice but not outstanding. The oysters tasted OK and the scallops were fine. We all ordered Eton mess for dessert, all sharing. I was absolutely appalled by it because it bore no resemblance whatsoever to any Eton mess I have ever had. There were 4 sticks of very dry looking meringue sticking out of a bowl of whipped cream with a bit of strawberry flavoured topping which kids use on ice cream. I think there may have been one cut up strawberry as garnish and nothing else. The waitress took the Eton mess off the bill for us after we complained even though we did not ask he to. We were told that the only difference to your recipe was that they used the strawberry topping. The whole thing was literally just whipped cream. It was horrible. At 11.30 pm I received a message from my colleague saying she had terrible food poisoning - unlucky oyster I presume. She was sick all night and then had to work all day. I am not after any compensation, I just think you ought to know that your name is being used to promote very average food abroad and desserts that don´t bear any resemblance at all to British food. I used to be a big fan but I´m afraid that going to your restaurant has put me off your food for life!
