Would you like a side of f-bombs with your waffles? Foul-mouthed Chef Gordon Ramsay stayed true to his hell-ish television persona at a private brunch on Sunday, Nov. 21, the morning after his inaugural Chef's Challenge gala and fundraiser. Held at the Rosenthal residence in Forest Hill, Mr. Ramsay spared no profanities as he light-heartedly jostled with guests celebrating the $1.1 million dollars raised for education and research of breast and ovarian cancer at Mount Sinai Hospital. Mr. Ramsay was joined by his fellow celebrity chefs who competed in the challenge: David Rocco (nicknamed "porn star" by Mr. Ramsay in his pre-brunch speech, he met the host with a flip of the bird), Jamie Kennedy, Lynn Crawford, Mark McEwan and Massimo Capra. Chef Lynn Crawford won the challenge alongside team captain Jamie O'Born, president of The Printing House, who single-handedly raised $28,500.
