By james art RENO, Nev. (KOLO) — A famous name is behind a new restaurant in Reno, as celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay came to celebrate the opening at the Silver Legacy Casino.
The restaurant, named Ramsay’s Kitchen, is now officially open, offering enthusiasts a taste of Ramsay. It’s located in the Silver Legacy, but the elegant space will make you forget about the crazy lights and sounds outside. Ramsay’s Kitchen promises to improve the overall dining experience here in Reno. Whether you’re a fan of Ramsay’s famous cooking shows or just love great food, this is sure to be a hot spot for locals and visitors alike.
Ramsey said he loves Reno because it reminds him of the mining town he grew up in outside Glasgow, so he considers this restaurant his most authentic. Because of this, he is here for the long haul and wants to ensure that everything is perfect. In the spirit of keeping things local, Ramsey didn’t bring in chefs from around the world, but rather found them right here in Northern Nevada. Once selected, they went through a six-month training period before opening the restaurants.
“Creating Ramsay’s Kitchen was about learning, about insight, about being able to connect. But more important is the removal of intimidation. Sometimes when you’re a big cook, what comes with that is intimidation. It’s the opposite here, the food speaks for itself,” said Ramsay.
Ramsey’s Kitchen, along with his fish and chip restaurant, are the first to come to Northern Nevada. Both are said to be inspired by his travels.
