MASHANTUCKET, Connecticut (Hartford Courant)
30 year old Kyle Timpson will be the new executive chef at Gordon Ramsey's Hell's Kitchen at Foxwoods after winning season 23 on the Fox tv show Hell's kitchen competition. Kyle is the only winner in the show’s history to be named executive chef at the property where their season was filmed - and turned out to be the shows winner. He said he was bullied in school for being gay, and so he baked cupcakes for classmates
But he said it helped develop a thick skin---and when working for Gordon Ramsey he'll need a thick skin. Ramsey says he's thrilled to welcome Kyle to Hell's Kitchen at Foxwoods. He starts his new job May 1st.
