Matt Worswick leaves the Savoy Grill after just one year
Making the announcement on Twitter over the weekend, the chef said: So my journey has come to an end at the Savoy. I’d like to thank all the staff past and present for all their hard work and dedication. I'd like to wish [Gordon Ramsay] all the very best and continued success for the future [at the Savoy Grill]."
The restaurant is yet to announce its replacement.
