On Thursday night in Bally’s Diamond Lounge on the Boardwalk in Atlantic City, Hell’s Kitchen Season 10 winner and Gordon Ramsay Group executive chef Christina Wilson will be on hand to offer a preview of Ramsay’s new steakhouse, set to open at Harrah’s over Memorial Day weekend. Wilson previously worked at suburban Philadelphia restaurants Gypsy Saloon and Stella Blu as well as Center City’s Lolita and Mercato.
