Hell's Kitchen--What ever happened to last season's winner?

Question

I know he was supposed to go to England to work under Gordon Ramsey....but has anyone heard anything else about him?

Answer 1

Check out Michael Wray's Myspace page:
http://www.myspace.com/brotherhoodofchefs

He's currently selling chef's knives with his own company, Skulls and Cleavers and getting ready to open his restaurant, Lolapop (named after his wife) later this year.

""The logo for my knife company is two cleavers with a skull," he says, "and I just got a new tattoo in San Francisco that I really like that's a cobra and a chef knife and it has a banner with my company name on it. I make the blades myself and I cast silver and do a lot of welding. I have a brass knuckles set of knives and lots of skulls and whatnot on the knives. I want to have fun with it."

But he says the knives are really just something to occupy his time until his Vegas restaurant opens later this year. And as the ultimate Valentine's tribute to his wife, Lola, the restaurant will be called Lolapop and will be a cross between Benihana and Cocktail with burlesque shows and upscale food.

"I want to have performance art and bring a lot of the kitchen into the restaurant and have little grottos and booths that are way tucked out of the way," he says. "I'd definitely have a stage and have [the dancers] up there so everybody could stare at them. It would definitely be very upscale as far as the food goes and the atmosphere."

I saw Michael on a Food Network special a while back about chefs raising money for Katrina victims. But that was the only time I have heard about him. I loved him.
