About the show

Gordon Ramsay returns with a brand new series seeking out the very best British restaurants up and down the country. Thousands of restaurants have been nominated by diners as their favourite local eatery, now Ramsay sets out to put these restaurants to the test before finally crowning the best of the best.

Across eight heats Gordon puts two restaurants from different cuisines - from Italian and French to Chinese - head to head to really test their mettle. Will their food be able to stand a series of rigorous tests? Can the chefs cope cooking under Gordon's watch and in a kitchen that's not their own? And how will they fare under the glare of the cameras?
