Gordon Ramsay just opened his Hell’s Kitchen in Miami — and it’s fire. Take a look
Gordon Ramsay doesn’t bite. Really.
The hotheaded celebrity chef showed up Saturday night at the grand opening of his Hell’s Kitchen in downtown Miami, and he was on his best behavior. (Perhaps because his 21-year-old influencer daughter Tilly Ramsay was in the house.)
Wearing his signature, short sleeved veste blanc, Ramsay appeared to be in a great mood and didn’t curse out a soul. The 54-year-old Scot walked the red carpet, greeted guests with a charming smile, graciously took selfies and then got to work.
The Michelin-starred restaurateur could be seen behind the stoves with his charges in the open kitchen, a replica of the one used on the popular Fox reality show shot in L.A.
The “Kitchen Nightmares” host was seen putting the finishing touches on many of his signature dishes, including the way complicated Beef Wellington, which famously reduced many of his past “HK” contestants to tears.
And not just the vast, modern kitchen is evocative of the series, now in its 22nd season. Anyone who has watched even one episode will feel as if they walked onto the “HK” set at the stunning, two level eatery located at the Met Square complex.
There are two dining rooms and two bars both upstairs and downstairs, with subtle lighting, brass accents and dramatic floor to ceiling windows overlooking the city.
The sleek, clean lined, 16,000 square foot interior has splashes of red and blue, nods to the colors of the two teams competing for the show’s $250,000 grand prize. You also can’t miss images of a devilish looking Ramsay, as well as pitchforks and shooting flames everywhere on the walls.
If you visit the Miami spot (the father of five’s seventh such restaurant in the United States), be sure to say hello, or rather, “G’day, mate.” Deep down, he’s an old softie.
“I think everyone’s got a good and bad side in them,” Ramsay told People magazine recently. “I’m just very good at highlighting the bad that turned into something incredible.”
