Gordon Ramsay chicken for rejecting boxing match, fumes Harlan Goldstein
Hong Kong chef lays into television heavyweight over charity rejection
Celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay has rejected a challenge to box Harlan Goldstein for charity, prompting the Hong Kong culinary guru to suggest his notoriously foul-mouthed rival is all talk and no action.
"He's got a big mouth, but now I can see he's only bark, bark, bark and no bite," said Goldstein, a native New Yorker who has since made Hong Kong his home.
"He might be chicken. I cook chicken."
The fight was proposed by Goldstein's trainer, four-time Muay Thai world champion Alain Ngalani, when he heard Ramsay was recently in town.
In September, Scotsman Ramsay opened his first restaurant - Bread Street Kitchen - in the same Central building as Goldstein's flagship eatery, Gold.
