Chef Heston Blumenthal to bring his crazy cooking to the Harbour City Celebrity chef Heston Blumenthal in Sydney visit / Picture: Jeremy Piper Celebrity chef Heston Blumenthal / Picture: Jeremy Piper HESTON Blumnethal has confirmed he plans to open a restaurant in Australia and is even considering moving here. The celebrity chef, who already owns The Fat Duck, Dinner and The Hinds Head in the UK, said he plans to open a restaurant in either Sydney or Melbourne within the next three years. "I would love to open a restaurant here," Blumnethol told The Daily Telegraph. I might actually decide to migrate. The Michelin-starred chef said he would base the restaurant around his hugely successful establishment, Dinner, which puts a new spin on historic British food. "I'm never going to open another Fat Duck," he said. I might move it. It is a labour of love and there should only be one Fat Duck. Dinner was always intended to do a few of internationally so I would love to do Dinner here. The experimental chef, known for his bacon-and-egg ice cream, didn't rule out Barangaroo or the Opera House as potential venue's. "The ultimate location would be Sydney or Melbourne," he said. Ideally on the water definitely. Either somewhere in Sydney on the water or the Yarra River. You can go out to the peninsula ... but the restaurant needs to be busy all the time so I am not sure how far out I would go. I would like to think this will happen in the next three or so years, I haven't got anything yet, but it is definitely on the radar. The British chef said it is Australia's laid back attitude which is luring him to open up shop here. "I like the laid-back nature here," he said. It suits my character. When you go back to Europe it is all about snobbery. I have been accepted way quicker in Australia than I was in the UK. And it's not just punters who are eager for Blumnethal to open a restaurant here, fellow chef's are calling for the larger-than-life personality to make the move. "Neil Perry has been pushing me (to open a restaurant) and I keep pushing him to open a restaurant in London," he said. If he did a Spice Temple in London he would smash it. There is nothing like Spice Temple in London. He is keen, but I have been saying it to him for three years. Blumnethal is in Australia to launch a product later in the week.
