Star Chef Thomas Keller Considers Pop-Up Restaurant at Harrods

Thomas Keller, the U.S. chef who holds a total of seven Michelin stars for the French Laundry, Per Se and Bouchon, is in discussions about opening a pop-up restaurant at Harrods store in London later this year.

“We’re still talking to Harrods: Nothing has been decided yet,” Keller, 55, said in an interview. “The most important thing is that you represent the kind of thing you do at home. Cooking’s a simple equation: It’s about ingredients and technique. So if I’m coming here with my techniques to use the ingredients that are available in this country, then we’re missing half of the equation, and I don’t want to do that.
