El Chod to Launch China Grill: The Next Generation

Gordon Ramsay Steak might not take over the China Grill space after all. Jeffrey Chodorow's camp sends word that China Grill Management is "building the next generation of China Grill on Brickell Avenue in Miami" that will include a "new culinary program" with versions of China Grill classics plus a new dim sum program. Chodorow eventually wants to bring this new version of China Grill to New York, possibly by revamping the current space. A statement from the restaurant group notes:

It is our intention to introduce this new generation of China Grill to the New York market within the coming year and we have been exploring whether the current location on 53rd Street can accommodate the upgrades necessary within its existing footprint. While we are considering the possibility of moving from the flagship location at CBS Black Rock and relocating to a new, larger location, no decision has yet been made
