Celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay has opened the country's first Street Burger outlet at Delhi Airport's Terminal 1. The menu features modern burgers, seasoned fries, and fizzy drinks. Initial reviews praise the Ménage à Trois burger, with a juicy patty, tangy pickled carrots, and smoked cheese. Ramsay's Street Burger outlets are rare, with only three others worldwide.
Celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay has expanded his culinary empire by opening his first Street Burger outlet at Delhi Airport's Terminal 1. The new venture marks a significant entry for Ramsay into the Indian market, where he has previously been absent. The menu features a range of modern burgers, seasoned fries, and fizzy drinks, priced between Rs 500 to Rs 1,000 [2].
The outlet, which opened last week, is part of a broader expansion plan by Ramsay to establish Street Burger outlets across Indian airports by 2027 [2]. This initiative is being facilitated through a partnership with Travel Food Services (TFS), one of the country's largest airport food and beverage (F&B) operators. Currently, only three other Street Burger outlets exist globally, located at London Heathrow, Doha, and Hong Kong [2].
Initial reviews from food and travel bloggers have been mixed. Kashish, a food blogger who reviewed the burgers, found the Chef’s Special GFC Burger to be lacking in seasoning and with undercooked chicken. However, she praised the Ménage à Trois burger for its juicy patty, tangy pickled carrots, and smoked cheese, describing it as a "flavour bomb" [1].
The restaurant's design and ambiance are described as modern, reminiscent of an American diner, with a focus on accessibility and convenience for travelers [1]. The outlet's location at the revamped Terminal 1 of Delhi Airport is expected to attract a steady stream of customers, making it a popular spot for travelers.
Ramsay's entry into the Indian market is significant for the food industry, as it brings a global culinary brand to the country's airports. The partnership with TFS also highlights the growing trend of international food brands establishing themselves in Indian airports, leveraging the high foot traffic and diverse customer base.
