You know that The Sun is not a reputable news source, yes?

The Sun is equal to the Enquirer or those other trashy mags at the checkout lines at grocery stores.I don't believe it cause it would've made it to mainstreet news.

"Gordon Ramsay maintained that the food in his gastro-pubs was fresh yesterday, despite admitting it was prepared in a backstreet kitchen in south London.
Staff in a Ramsay kitchen in Clapham prepared up to half the dishes for his three pubs in the capital – the Warrington in Maida Vale, the Narrow in Limehouse, the Devonshire in Chiswick – and for his Chelsea bistro, Foxtrot Oscar. Preparing food off-site for warming-up is common in mid-market restaurants but is less frequent in establishments run by Michelin-starred chefs.
Disclosure of the story in The Sun (headline: "Ramsay Serves Up Coq Au Van") is another dollop of bad news for the 42-year-old chef, following claims that he had a seven-year affair with a professional mistress (author of the book Having An Affair? A Handbook For The Other Woman), and the handing back of his hotel restaurants in Paris and Prague to their managements.
A manager at Foxtrot Oscar said to a reporter: "Everything is cooked here. It's Gordon Ramsay. It's very good."
What was not said was that dishes had been prepared by staff at GR Logistics which also supplies the catering trade. By the time they are served to Ramsay's diners they have a mark- up of up to 586 per cent; fishcakes sold to caterers for £1.92 a portion are priced at £9.99, while 75p sausage rolls are on the menu for £3.50.
Ramsay, who has 10 Michelin stars, more than any other British chef, has often spoken out against ready meals and praises fresh ingredients on his TV show Kitchen Nightmares. " -
