A popular village restaurant near Knaresborough has announced the launch of a new menu this month – with a light-hearted twist.
The Blue Bell at Arkendale revealed the news through a video featuring Gordon Ramsay impersonator Martin Jordan, who delivered the announcement in the celebrity chef’s unmistakable style.
In the video, Jordan playfully channels Ramsay’s trademark energy while celebrating the restaurant’s new menu.
A spokesperson for The Blue Bell said:
“We’re thrilled to announce that a brand new menu is launching this October! Guess who’s here to share the exciting news?
"Not only is October new menu month, but it’s also our birthday celebrations!
“Simon Wade and his team have nearly had the Blue Bell Inn for one year! Get ready because this new menu won’t disappoint!”
The Blue Bell, known for its locally sourced dishes and modern pub classics, has built a strong reputation since it was taken over by Simon Wade and his team last year.
The new menu launch marks both a culinary refresh and the celebration of the team’s first anniversary at the venue.
