As part of the $110 million renovation of the Hyatt Regency Scottsdale Resort & Spa at Gainey Ranch, the hospitality property has partnered with a celebrity chef to take over its food and beverage operations.
Richard Blais, a chef who is known from “Next Level Chef” on Fox and Bravo’s “Top Chef All-Stars” and has been nominated for James Beard awards, will be reconcepting the resort's food and beverage experiences as part of its renovation and rebranding to a Grand Hyatt property. . There will be an Italian American concept that the resort referred to as Blais’ “signature concept,” and said it will have handmade pasta and charcoal-grilled steaks, seafood and chops.
Other restaurants will include a fusion concept that mixes Japanese sushi and Spanish tapas, a Southwest-style grill, and a three-meal restaurant connected to the lobby bar, which will also be getting a whole new look and feel.
