Gordon Ramsay, the globally celebrated chef and television personality, is set to extend his restaurant portfolio in Canada, thanks to a freshly inked partnership with Great Canadian Entertainment. Known for his impressive array of hit TV shows, including Hell’s Kitchen and Masterchef, Ramsay is not new to the spotlight, but this venture promises a different kind of sizzle for the Canadian food scene.
A New Era of Casino Dining
Canadian food connoisseurs and casino patrons will soon be able to indulge in the gastronomic marvels by none other than Gordon Ramsay, the titan of the culinary world. Notably, Ramsay’s legendary fiery temperament won’t be a part of the dining experience. While it makes for riveting television, it doesn’t quite gel with a relaxed, fine-dining atmosphere.
This fall, food enthusiasts across the Lower Mainland in British Columbia are in for a treat as the Gordon Ramsay Burger opens its doors at the Hard Rock Casino in Vancouver, BC. It is the first of its kind in Canada. Ramsay’s signature burger joint promises to be a harmonious marriage of culinary mastery and feel-good comfort food.
With a stunning array of gourmet burgers, scratch-made sauces, artisanal shakes, and delightful sides, the menu promises a holistic, satisfying dining experience for all burger enthusiasts.
The Steaks Are High
Next in line is the Gordon Ramsay Steak, expected to open at River Rock Casino Resort in Richmond, BC, sometime next year. This marks the Canadian debut of Chef Ramsay’s acclaimed steak brand. Known for its upscale atmosphere and stellar service, Gordon Ramsay Steak is set to elevate the dining landscape at River Rock Casino Resort.
Patrons will get the opportunity to relish some of Ramsay’s signature dishes, including his much-loved Beef Wellington. Both Gordon Ramsay Burger and Gordon Ramsay Steak are designed to offer immersive dining experiences within chic, aesthetically pleasing interiors, serving as a vibrant backdrop for guests to revel in the culinary marvels curated by Ramsay’s team.
“We’re thrilled to partner with Great Canadian Entertainment to bring our dining concepts to the vibrant Canadian dining scene,” said Chef Gordon Ramsay, sharing his excitement about the new venture.
Gordon Ramsay Partners with Great Canadian Entertainment
The collaboration between the multi-Michelin Starred chef and one of Canada’s gaming and hospitality leaders is a major milestone in Canada’s dining and entertainment scene. It promises to bring several new eateries to the Canadian market, adding more depth to the country’s already dynamic culinary canvas.
“We are absolutely thrilled to bring Gordon Ramsay’s extraordinary gastronomic vision to our properties,” echoed Matthew Anfinson, Great Canadian Entertainment’s CEO. “This partnership represents a monumental moment for our company. We look forward to introducing additional Gordon Ramsay brands at other Great Canadian destinations in Canada.”
A Fresh Take on the Canadian Dining Scene
With his North American restaurant business already flourishing in US cities like New York, Boston, Chicago, and Las Vegas, this expansion marks Ramsay’s re-entry into Canada’s restaurant industry. This announcement leaves Canadian food enthusiasts wondering what other locations might catch Ramsay’s eye next.
One thing is clear: Canadians eager to sample what Chef Ramsay’s team has in store need not look further than the Hard Rock Casino Vancouver come fall, or plan a trip to one of his esteemed US restaurants. If all goes well, it wouldn’t be a surprise to see Chef Ramsay broaden his Canadian reach, with Ontario possibly being his next stop.
The anticipated arrival of Ramsay’s eateries is set to transform the culinary landscape of Canadian casinos, integrating world-class dining with entertainment. This unique experience is bound to leave an indelible mark, bridging gastronomic brilliance with the thrill of the gaming world.
