Gordon Ramsay to Open NYC Restaurant
From LoveToKnow Celebrity
The reality show Hell’s Kitchen thrust Gordon Ramsay into the spotlight as the tough-as-nails chef who put wannabes through their paces to gain the top spot and their own restaurant. Now, Ramsay is opening his own New York City eatery.
Hell’s Kitchen
Hell’s Kitchen seemed an unlikely hit, but following the success of the show in the UK, it was adapted for the American reality TV market in 2005. Gordon Ramsay brought in viewers with his prickly ways and the popular Fox show launched the careers of some well-deserving chefs.
Gordon Ramsay’s Restaurant
With all of the exposure that the reality series has given him, it seems natural that a restaurant in New York City would be a perfect venture. News of the restaurant opening spread quickly, and reservations were booked solid for the first two months. The restaurant will be located inside of the London NYC Hotel, and will be called (simply enough) Gordon Ramsay at The London. Well, it’s not as fire and brimstone as Hell’s Kitchen, but it makes its point. The restaurant will feature French-influenced cuisine, and includes both a casual and formal dining space.

Just because this is his first restaurant stateside doesn’t mean that he’s new to restaurant ownership. Ramsay has 10 restaurants in all. And what would a celebrity chef be without his own cookbook? Yep, he’s got one of those too – the best-selling Gordon Ramsay Makes it Easy.
