For years, Malaysians have been entertained by the antics of legendary chef and television personality Gordon Ramsay. We’ve been riveted, watching him train other chefs to their fullest potential in MasterChef and Hell’s Kitchen. We’ve delighted in watching him verbally tear apart hopeless restaurant owners in Kitchen Nightmares. We’ve laughed at the countless jokes and memes highlighting his quick temper and talent for memorable insults.
We'll finally be able to try this British chef’s gourmet cooking for ourselves when Gordon Ramsay Bar & Grill opens in Sunway Resort on June 18, 2022.

“It will have all the hallmarks of a Gordon Ramsay restaurant. Great service as well as obviously the great food that has a touch of Britain in it, that you would expect and an all-round wonderful dining experience,” says Ramsay in an email interview. “I love this part of the world and I think Kuala Lumpur is a very cool, multicultural food city so I thought the time is absolutely right to bring this concept to Malaysia.”
This restaurant will be housed in Sunway Resort, the flagship hotel located in Sunway City Kuala Lumpur. This will be the first international opening for a Gordon Ramsay Bar & Grill outside of London. For those wondering what to expect at his new restaurant, Ramsay reveals the menu was shaped by his experiences in Malaysia while filming travel documentaries.
“I’ve spent a lot of time in the region between [filming] my Great Escape and Gordon Ramsay: Uncharted, so I’ve really become familiar with all the flavours here. Personally, I’m most excited for my Short Rib Rendang. We also have a King Crab Laksa which I hope will prove to be a favourite dish with our diners,” says the chef whose restaurants had received a total of seven Michelin stars.
