The other month we learned that angry chef Gordon Ramsay was going to move into the hotelier world with the York and Albany Hotel, a 10-room boutique fashioned from an old pub.

Of course, we expected a restaurant to come with it but now there might be two. From Bloomberg:

Gordon Ramsay Holdings's first U.K. hotel, in north London, will feature two restaurants run by Angela Hartnett, private dining, a cocktail bar and a delicatessen, Design Week said, citing the York & Albany's general manager.

The original plan was for the York & Albany to become part of Ramsay's pub group, Design Week said, and then the decision was taken to operate it as a hotel, with 10 suites. The Regency designs are by Russell Sage Studio, with custom-made silk fabrics, Design Week quoted manager James Partridge as saying.

Remember, last time we reported on this it was going to be Angela Hartnett's project from top to bottom. She's a friend and fellow chef of Ramsay, who will be the hotel's owner. York and Albany is expected to open sometime in later Summer.

It's official: Gordon Ramsay is taking over the world.

Ten Michelin stars, a bunch of semi-entertaining reality TV shows and a reputation for foul language seem to go to a man's head.

Because it's not just restaurants - this man's appearing everywhere. He's catching a plane at London Heathrow's new Terminal 5. He's taking over catering in hotels like the the Trianon Palace at Versailles near Paris and the London Hotel in New York and now Los Angeles.

And now he's moving into the hotel world proper with a 10-room boutique affair in London--The York & Albany.
