Becks and pal Gordon Ramsey check out pie shop venture before launch

TV Chef Gordon Ramsey tagged along David Beckham and his wife Victoria to inspect their latest venture, a Pie shop.

In the pictures obtained by Sunday People, the trio can be seen checking out the pie-and-mash restaurant, due to open this autumn, in Bermondsey, east London, the Mirror reported.

The retired footie ace had apparently told the workmen that he was impressed by their efforts.

A close pal of the father-of-four told the publication that in the grand scheme of his business ventures, the new eatery is small, but it's the one he is most excited about.

The insider asserted that Beckham is a great cook and has learned how to do french and Italian over the years, but his favourite is British.

The source added that Beckham loves pie.
