How on earth do they accumulate that much - must be watering the booze.

Was MPW on hand to oversee my steak? No, but his fizog was at the door on a photo, so I am sure his till still rattled!

Rick Stein my personal fave had a wonderful meal for a birthday a couple of years ago.
They sell lots and lots of cookery books.

Have their own branded kitchen equipment.....etc
I don't know about the booze but they water down the work; nine times out of ten they won't be cooking it themselves any more, they just train up other chefs and franchise out their name.

Actually, make that 99 times out of 100. Or even more.
havign said that, if you want to make the money you're better off being a regular celeb, as they don't have to work at all; at least the cooks have cooked at some stage.

I eat a lot in Jamie's Italian restaurants. As a Gold member, there are always free tasters/ desserts and drinks on offer. The waiting staff are fantastic. I'd highly recommend.
