Chef's table at Gordon Ramsey

I've reserved the Chef's table at the famous Gordon Ramsey restaurant in Manhattan for Monday lunch (21 May). This is a single large table on a raised platform in the actual kitchen itself. Last time we had a three hour lunch, you can see the preparation and the person making the dish, is also serving it and explains its contents. A very cool experience in one of the absolute best NYC resaurants.

The table sits 8 people and I lost 3 today. We are now 5 and the focus will be on modern Euro interior design and Ferraris (several owners in the group).

Anyone interested to join us? The luch costs $1000 (fixed) for the table plus drinks and tip. It will be easier to divide the bill by 8 rather than by 5.

You guys work too hard.

 

One place filled, two still available.

 

Chefs table seats maximum eight. We were 6 and had more room. Great place to take clients to. My wife and I were treated as regulars, even though we were there only once before. Works best first time around. The surprise of sitting in the kitchen, seeing the hard work (Two shifts, 8AM to 4PM and 4PM to midnight). Having the dishes explaned by the people that make it. All these people have very focussed eyes and it is very quiet.

The 8-10 course tasting food is outstanding and every time somewhat different. No choices. We asked them to pair the wine, but not to get carried away. Last time our clients spent almost $4K on the wine alone. This time we had to pay and kept the whole bill under $2K. All together a very wonderful three hour lunch.
