GORDON RAMSEY

Besides doing some serious justice to a pair of jeans, Ramsey is authoritative, worldly, sexy and has a wicked tongue. The ultimate “bad boy,” he gives cooking contestants real hell in “Hell’s Kitchen!”

INTERESTING FACT:
Ramsey has a Black Belt in Karate.

HOW HE HAS INFORMED/INSPIRED MY WRITING:
Ramsey is synonymous with service excellence. He’s won numerous awards for his creativity and uncompromising standards. I seek to do the same.

AARON SANCHEZ

Adorned with an array of tattoos and a rugged physique, this Mexican, award-winning chef is as hot as Jalapeno peppers. Additionally, he comes across as very caring and helpful as a mentor to those aspiring to follow in his footsteps.

INTERESTING FACT:
Sanchez has a twin brother who is an attorney. Aaron also writes poetry.

HOW HE HAS INFORMED/INSPIRED MY WRITING:
From his slew of tattoos to his style of cooking, he’s unique in his branding and his image. He’s a non-conformist. When I started my blog many years ago, people predicted failure because I opted to blog on a free platform (as opposed to following everyone else). I’ve outlasted many of my former critics.

JOE BASTIANICH

Though for me his arrogance can be a bit off putting, there’s no denying that Joe B. has animal magnetism, as a member of the bald and beautiful club.

INTERESTING FACT:
He’s the son of famous Chef, author and TV personality, Lidia Bastianich.

HOW HE HAS INFORMED/INSPIRED MY WRITING:
His family has created a cooking empire with many restaurants, books and products.
This mirrors my belief that collaborations can often make us stronger creatively and enhance our offerings (and bottom line).

NICK STELLINO
Nick is easy on the eyes and very engaging to watch. He’s like a gentle giant. And you gotta’ love that macho mustache.

INTERESTING FACT:
He was formerly a Wall Street stock broker.

HOW HE HAS INFORMED/INSPIRED MY WRITING:
Stellino used his humble background as a stepping stone, as opposed to viewing it as an obstacle.

CHEF IRIE (HUGH A. SINCLAIR)

Hugh hails originally from Jamaica. This brother man can take me back to the motherland! Suave, charismatic, dashing, with a sexy accent and million dollar smile. Chef Irie’s as spicy as his recipes.

INTERESTING FACT:
He originally studied architecture and has a B.A. degree in this discipline.

HOW HE HAS INFORMED/INSPIRED MY WRITING:
Chef Irie exudes passion in the kitchen. For me, passion is an integral ingredient to a successful writing career. Without it, you cheat your readers and yourself.

RICK BAYLESS

He’s a lean, mean cooking machine who has the features of a male model. His stylish glasses also make him look like a sexy nerd. What chick doesn‘t love a smart guy?

INTERESTING FACT:
His guilty pleasure is doughnuts.

HOW HE HAS INFORMED/INSPIRED MY WRITING:
Though Rick is versed in many types of cooking, his specialty is Mexican cuisine. Quite often, having a “specialty” or niche area saves time; helps branding and marketing efforts; and enables bloggers to “work smarter, not harder.”

SIMPLY MING (MING TSAI)

Ming Tsai is quite a dish! With those dreamy eyes, thick hair, warm smile and gorgeous hands.

INTERESTING FACT:
He was a squash player at Yale.

HOW HE HAS INFORMED/INSPIRED MY WRITING:
Ming is a teacher at heart. His cooking instructions and helpful tips are typically simple, clever and easy to follow. I believe that good writing should be too.

　
IN CONCLUSION…

Even if you’re not seeking to improve your food aptitude, you’ll want to tune into the weekly shows of these gorgeous guys, who give new meaning to the expression, “turning up the heat!” While providing great (unexpected) lessons and take-aways on writing and branding.
