Answer: Gordon Ramsay

Gordon Ramsay has been the host of "Hell's Kitchen" television show since 2005. The video game was released by Ubisoft in 2008 for Wii, Nintendo DS, Windows and iOS platforms. During the video game players can compete singly or in multi-player mode.

Several sources quote Chef Ramsay saying "I had a great time doing the voice for my own animation. Being in a video game is a new experience for me and I'm very pleased with the results."

The player must manage the restaurant and gain points without provoking Ramsay to the point where he shuts down the kitchen. Customers must be seated, orders taken, food prepared correctly and delivered, and the tables must be bussed before the customers can depart. Customers can order appetizers, entree and dessert so getting all of the dishes made correctly without under- or over-cooking is essential.

One game bonus is that some of Chef Ramsay's recipes have been included for those inclined to attempt them in a real kitchen.
