Emeril Lagasse to Launch Gourmet Burger Restaurant
Nation's Restaurant Newsreports that Emeril Lagasse is launching a gourmet burget concept restaurant at the Sands Casino Resort in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania.
The full-service restaurant, which has yet to be named, will feature a number of gourmet burgers made with "several different kinds of ground beef and a variety of toppings," said Dave McCelvey, Lagasse's vice president of operations and culinary. The per-person check average is expected to be around $20, he said.
"This will be our most relaxed concept by far," McCelvey said.
The article says the concept burger restaurant could serve as a launch prototype for more similar burger restaurants but Lagasse's company is focusing on just the one for right now.
Emeril Lagasse's has a Twitter account called @EmerilsEats that provides information on what is new and fresh at his ten restaurants. Emeril also has a personal twitter account, @Emeril.
