Gordon Ramsay is up to his drive-thru roasting antics again. His target this time? Costa Coffee - watch here:
The celebrity chef was in a mischievous mood as he went to pick up a bacon butty, the filling of which he was horrified to discover had been microwaved.

In the first video shared on TikTok, the 54-year-old rolled up to a Costa drive-thru where he did the perfect impression of a difficult customer he would typically have absolutely zero time for.
After asking for a 'British smoked bacon bap', Gordon then quibbled with the server over the intercom about the various sauces and their brands before asking where the bacon is from.
The server is admirably polite given the situation, admitting he doesn't know the 'exact location' but assuring that it is British sourced.
Gordon then asks: "Is there any chance I could have an extra rasher, please?"
But the chef is out of luck, as we find out that it's the last bacon bap in the branch (of all the days).

In part two, Ramsey pulls up to the window to get the goods - and this is where the real roasting ensues.
Deconstructing the bap like a scene out of Ramsay's Kitchen Nightmares, you see the staff giggling in the background as Gordon picks up the bacon like he's inspecting a diseased specimen.
"Is that it?" he shouts, thrusting the rasher towards the staff before asking: "£2.90 for that?"
Another server comes to the window to correct Gordon's mistake, telling him that the bap actually costs three quid.
At this point, you'd think a queue would be forming and the employee's patience evaporating, but Ramsay wasn't done yet.

"Is the grill on?" he asks, the employee duly responding: "It's all done in a microwave oven."
He clearly knew what was coming for him - no one wants to admit using a microwave to Gordon Ramsay.
Pre-empting Gordon's reaction, the server starts laughing as the chef shouts: "YOU DON'T MICROWAVE BACON!"
To be fair, the man has a point - but it's a Costa drive-thru, a far cry from fine dining.

Obviously, Gordon's highly aware and this is all just in jest.
The videos have racked up millions of views between them, as well as thousands of comments from people delighted at Gordon's antics.
"That was the most British conversation I've ever heard," wrote one user, while another joked, "This is an interesting episode of Hell's Kitchen."

The second clip, which was posted yesterday (17 April), ended with the words 'More to come" - so stay tuned for what he's got in store next.
Costa declined to comment on Gordon's reaction to the bacon bap.
