Gordon Ramsay schooled on Full English breakfasts after revealing £19 Savoy fry up

Gordon Ramsay was embroiled in a Twitter war with a ‘fry up police’ account after he revealed the new £19 breakfast at Savoy Grill.

The celebrity chef tweeted a video of “the most amazing Full English” which will be available in his upmarket restaurant from next week, but social media users were less than happy with its contents.

Featuring a lone sausage, tomato and mushroom along with rashers of bacon and two eggs, the portion seemed to fall short of expectations.

“Where’s the rest of it” was a common reply, while the hashtag #GarnishBoy started to gain some traction soon after.

A rival breakfast produced by the Fry Up Police account was posted by Tony Moore in response to Ramsay’s version – featuring a hearty selection of fried breakfasty goodness.

Ramsay dubbed it a ‘Full English Classic Heart Attack’ – although it clearly touched a nerve.
