Gordon Ramsay’s New Sky-High Restaurant Brings Vegas to the City of London

You will get a view. You won’t get any signs of the star chef.

It’s been a busy few weeks for Gordon Ramsay. He took time to film a HexClad Super Bowl ad with actor Pete Davidson and then make po’ boys for broadcasters at the big game in New Orleans. The activities personify his curious amalgam of roles: part cosplay TV chef, part brand ambassador, a headline generator and, ultimately, an entertainment industry bigwig with star power.

Those ever-evolving characters are in evidence at 22 Bishopsgate, where Gordon Ramsay Restaurants Ltd. has taken a 20-year lease from AXA IM Alts for, count them, five new ventures in one mammoth skyscraper in the City of London. There’s a new outpost of his “Asian-inspired” restaurant Lucky Cat; the 12-seat Restaurant Gordon Ramsay High, an offshoot of his three-Michelin-star Chelsea flagship; a HexClad-badged cooking academy; a 60-seat Lucky Cat Bar; and another brasserie-style Bread Street Kitchen, which is due to open later in the year.
