The celebrity chef runs more than 20 steakhouses across the country, where the new steaks will be served, as well as three of his other London-based restaurants.
It comes after he was ‘blown away’ since trying Redefine’s layered meat substitutes.
“The world needs to eat less meat. But the reality is that so far, plant-based meat products have fallen far short of the quality and versatility needed for our menus,” he said. The Telegraph.
According to reports, vegan steaks will be priced between £20 and £30 in restaurants, in line with similar price ranges for non-vegan offerings.

Redefine launched the steaks in Israel last year. Here they have become available in over 150 restaurants after a successful launch in 2018.
It is the result of years of research and development on the sensory experience of tasting meat.
And now the company claims to have “mastered” the complex molecular structure of meat, and how to process it plant-based.
This is with the aim of creating a world “where everyone can enjoy great meat without compromise”.
