My favourites are :

Michel Roux Jr - I like his attitude towards his students and towards the participants in Masterchef, he seems like a real gentleman, never shouting or swearing at anyone.

Eric Lanlard - Not so much the cakes, but the nice French accent :love:

Jamie Oliver - seems a nice guy, family man, do-gooder in the community and I like his food/recipes

Dislikes :

Gordon Ramsay - too obnoxious, although I am not sure if that is simply his tv persona, or if that is how he is in real life too

James Martin - I cannnot explain why, I just have a tremendous dislike for him.
 
Like

Michel Roux, Jamie Oliver, Robert Irvine. Seem like decent guys.
Nigella Lawson ... :p

Dislike

Gordon Ramsay. Too full of himself.
 
I like Guy Fieri (from Guy's Big Bite and Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives).
 
I like Gordon Ramsay... I can't really tell you why though. I guess I like drama
I also like Jamie Oliver! Looks like a very noble guy and he reminds me of ...me I gues :D
 
Gordon Ramsay is a right ****, it's not an act. But then so is Jamie "Nekkid" Oliver, he just pretends to be a nice guy. At least Ramsay is straight up which I can respect. I didn't like that FABULISSS black guy either, Ainsley something. He seemed a bit pretentious.

I do love me some Nigella though :love: Plus her recipes taste great.

Just some interviews, other shows etc. through the years. Situations when he doesn't put his TV face on as strong as usual. Maybe he just changed as he got older. I don't trust the guy, he doesn't seem like an honest type to me.

Edit: Disclaimer: Obviously I don't know the people personally, they might all be very nice or serial killers, I'm just basing my judgements on what we see through the media.
 
What gets me about Ramsey is he travels all over teaching other people how to save their restaurants, but meanwhile he can't keep some of his own ones open :erm:
 
Like : Ainsley Harriott, Gordon Ramsay, giada de laurentiis :love:
Dislike : Jamie Oliver
 
Not really a chef but top has got to be Anthony Bourdain.

Actual chefs though:

Gary Mehigan, George Calombaris, Michael Symon, Masaharu Morimoto.

I had to google Giada quickly. Wow she is hot for her age. I think she is my new favourite.

Gordon is ok.

Jamie - eeeehhh no.

Other chef's - The one on Toks and Tjops. (Although not always good for cholesterol)
 
Liked Gordon Ramsay until I found out Hells Kitchen is a scam with hardly anyone getting the chef positions they were promised. :(
