Gordon Ramsay Crashes Out Of World's Top 50 Restaurants

Gordon Ramsay's flagship restaurant has fallen out of an influential list of the top 50 restaurants in the world, denting the chef’s once unimpeachable reputation.

Restaurant Gordon Ramsay, a small venue in the heart of Chelsea, has long been considered one of Britain’s finest, if not its best.

However, it would appear that dishes such as quail and foie gras pithivier with wild mushrooms, confit leg and celeriac remoulade, no longer impress the critics as they once did.

For the first time since Restaurant magazine started publishing its annual survey of the top restaurants in the world, Restaurant Gordon Ramsay has failed to make the top 50. In fact, the restaurant, last year ranked 13th, dropped out of the longer top 100 list altogether.

A spokesperson for Gordon Ramsay Holdings said: "Gordon takes all these sort of surveys with a pinch of salt. As always, Gordon regards his thousands of customers as his most valued critics. They are his judge and jury." Source
