Gordon Ramsay has come under fire after charging punters at his swanky London restaurant £8 for a poke of chips.
At the Scottish chef's Savoy Grill customers can get their hands on the side for 25p per chip, writes The Record. Customers were less than impressed by this and a few left angry reviews, writing: “We had to pay £16 for two portions of chips which is madness really.”
While another penned: “The chips were very disappointing. Not hand-cut or triple cooked as you’d expect from this place but regular and frankly tasteless chips.”

Other dishes on the menu such as Beef Wellington will skin you £58 onwards and don't come with any sides or accompaniments.
Customers can also tuck into £165 caviar, £100 Lobster Thermador and £60 fillet steak, which you can wash down with bottles of wine priced at up to £4,000 a pop.
However, this isn't the most expensive serving of chips in London, Heston Blumenthal’s London-based Dinner by Heston menu offers triple-cooked chips for £9 a portion.
Tom Kerridge’s Fish and Chips restaurant in London’s Harrod also offers triple-cooked chips for £8.50. More reasonably, Marco Pierre White’s Steakhouse and Grill does chips for £3.50, while they are £3.95 at Rick Stein’s seafood restaurants.
Gordon Ramsay's luxury burger restaurant arrived in the capital in November promising "honest-priced burgers with bags of flavour" – so Edinburgh Live popped along to try it out and was left shocked at the tiny burger served.

The measly burger looked similar to one you would find in fast food restaurants such as Mcdonald's or Burger King and for a burger and fries, it costs a whopping £16.
Although delicious the burger was nothing special and left us hungry needing something else to fully fill up.
