If you’ve ever dreamed of sharpening your knife skills or pursuing a professional path in the kitchen, Riyadh is about to become your new culinary hub. World-renowned chef Gordon Ramsay is set to launch his first Saudi branch of the Gordon Ramsay Academy later this year, opening at Riyadh’s upcoming Narjis View Mall.
Launched in collaboration with Alkhaleej Training and Education, the Riyadh branch marks the academy’s debut outside the UK, with plans already underway to expand to Jeddah and Khobar. The institute will welcome everyone from absolute beginners to seasoned professionals, offering hands-on training guided by chefs with international expertise.
The curriculum is designed to cater to a wide range of culinary ambitions, from short courses in Asian and British cuisine to specialised diplomas in pastry and baking. Whether you’re a home cook eager to perfect the basics or an aspiring chef aiming to refine advanced techniques, the academy promises a world-class learning experience rooted in Ramsay’s decades of fine-dining excellence.
For Ramsay, whose name is synonymous with Michelin-starred restaurants and award-winning television shows, this Saudi launch represents not just an expansion but an invitation for food lovers in the region to immerse themselves in the craft of cooking.
Beyond classes, the academy will also provide operational, culinary, and marketing support, setting a new benchmark for professional culinary education in the Kingdom.
