LUDACRIS TO LAUNCH RESTAURANT
Rapper LUDACRIS is set to add restaurateur to his resume - after partnering up with chef CHRIS YEO to launch a new oriental restaurant.
The hip-hop star - real name Chris Bridges - will open Straits Atlanta in April (08), bringing Singaporean cuisine to his Georgia hometown.
Bridges, 30, says, "During my travels, I’ve experienced some of the most diverse international culinary flavours in the world. "After experiencing Yeo’s modern spin on Singaporean cuisine combined with the sexy dining experience, I wanted to bring this restaurant home to Atlanta." The restaurant will be the fourth in Yeo’s Straits franchise, with other establishments in San Francisco, San Jose, and Burlingame, California, reports AllHipHop.com.
On his decision to open the new location, Yeo says, "I love Atlanta’s charm, architecture, food and, most of all, the people. "Chris Bridges’ commitment to his community and his family sealed the deal for me - this market is ideal for Straits and likewise Straits is perfect for the city."
