Gordon Ramsay at Claridge’s heads the list of lost Michelin stars

Gordon Ramsay Holdings (GRH) has lost its Michelin star at its eponymous restaurant at London’s Claridge’s hotel.

The restaurant is the most high profile of 15 establishments to have lost their stars in this year’s Michelin guide to Great Britain and Ireland.

Gordon Ramsay at Claridge’s first gained its Michelin star in 2002 under the leadership of former head chef Mark Sargeant, who left his position at the restaurant at the beginning of last year. He consequently left GRH last November.

A spokeswoman for GRH said the group was “very disappointed” to have lost the Michelin star but added that it plans to work “harder than ever to try to earn it back” next year.
