Renowned chef Gordon Ramsay recently made headlines during his visit to the Philippines. His visit included attending the grand opening of his restaurant, Gordon Ramsay Bar & Grill, located at Newport World Resorts in Pasay City. This event marked his first visit to the country.

During his stay, Ramsay participated in a culinary showcase featuring local talents. Among those who caught his attention were Judy Ann Santos, a celebrated actress and chef, and content creator Abi Marquez. Both were given the opportunity to demonstrate their cooking prowess in front of the acclaimed chef. Ramsay expressed his admiration for their skills, particularly praising their ability to blend local flavors with international techniques.

Judy Ann Santos, known in the Philippines for her acting and culinary talents, was one of the highlight participants.

Her participation was part of a broader initiative to showcase Filipino cuisine to an international audience.

Abi Marquez, recognized for her vibrant social media presence and culinary content, also impressed Ramsay. Her interaction with Ramsay included a discussion on her creative process and the inspiration behind her dishes. Ramsay’s engagement with Marquez underscores the increasing importance of digital platforms in shaping modern culinary trends.

His restaurant in Pasay City is part of a global chain known for its fusion of European and Asian cuisines. It features a menu that integrates local ingredients, providing a unique dining experience for patrons. The restaurant’s opening highlights the growing gastronomic landscape in the Philippines, attracting international chefs and food enthusiasts alike.

In addition to the culinary showcase, Ramsay interacted with local chefs and food industry professionals. These interactions were aimed at encouraging collaboration and knowledge-sharing between different culinary cultures. Ramsay’s presence in the Philippines is seen as a significant boost to the local food scene, bringing international attention to Filipino chefs and their creations.

The newly opened Gordon Ramsay Bar & Grill in Pasay City offers a luxurious dining experience.

The menu includes a variety of dishes that emphasize the use of fresh, local produce. Patrons can expect a blend of classic and contemporary flavors, crafted under the guidance of Ramsay’s team of chefs.
