With a handful of hit shows, an international restaurant group, and 12 Michelin stars to uphold, Gordon Ramsay keeps piling more on his plate. The chef announced he will be opening a second venture in Manhattan, his US version of a laid-back, relaxed gastropub.
The casual concept, Ramsay defends, isn't due to the failing economy: "It's not because of the credit crunch or holding back. I just love that kind of alternative."
Gordon Ramsay at the London, his first stateside spot in midtown Manhattan, opened in 2006 to mixed reviews from critics, but the restaurant has proved resilient, earning two Michelin stars.
No word yet on when the café is set to open. Ramsay does have other things going on, after all: The new season of Kitchen Nightmares premieres tonight on Fox.

2He was on the Jleno show recently.. And I loved how he said he was his biggest critique.. another words he doesn't acknowledge other critiques. He's the best!
3well i think that it'll be nice to have an alternative Ramsey place to go to here in the city. for myself - i think that London is a bit out of my reach - it's too pricey and formal and i've always wanted to go to one of his places. i think that this gastro-pub will be successful in the NYC environment.
4Love his shows on Fox and BBC America.
