    Robert William Flay (born December 10, 1964)[1] [2] is an American celebrity chef, food writer, restaurateur, and reality television personality. Flay is the owner and executive chef of several restaurants and franchises, including Bobby's Burger Palace,[3] Bobby's Burgers,[4] and Amalfi.[5] He has worked with Food Network since 1995, which won him four Daytime Emmy Awards and a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.[6]

    Early life

    Flay was born on December 10, 1964, in New York City to Bill and Dorothy Barbara (McGuirk) Flay.[7] [8] He was raised on the Upper East Side neighborhood of Manhattan.[9] He is a fourth generation Irish American and was raised Catholic, attending denominational schools.[10]

    At age 8, Flay asked for an Easy-Bake Oven for Christmas. His father thought that a G.I. Joe would be more gender-appropriate. Despite his father's objections, he received them both.[11] [12]

    Career

    Flay dropped out of high school at age 17.[13] He has said his first jobs in the restaurant industry were at a pizza parlor and Baskin-Robbins.[14] He then took a position making salads at Joe Allen Restaurant in Manhattan's Theater District, where his father was a partner.[2] [15] The proprietor, Joe Allen, was impressed by Flay's natural ability and agreed to pay his partner's son's tuition at the French Culinary Institute.[16]

    Flay received a degree in culinary arts and was a member of the first graduating class of the French Culinary Institute in 1984. After culinary school, he started working as a sous-chef, quickly learning the culinary arts. At the Brighton Grill on Third Avenue, Flay was handed the executive chef's position after a week when the executive chef was fired. Flay quit when he realized he was not ready to run a kitchen. He took a position as a chef working for restaurateur Jonathan Waxman at Bud and Jams. Waxman introduced Flay to southwestern and Cajun cuisine, which came to define his culinary career.[2]

    After working for a short time on the floor at the American Stock Exchange, Flay returned to the kitchen as the executive chef at Miracle Grill in the East Village, where he worked from 1988 to 1990.[6] He caught the attention of restaurateur Jerome Kretchmer, who was looking for a southwestern-style chef. Impressed by Flay's food, Kretchmer offered him the position of executive chef at Mesa Grill, which opened on January 15, 1991. Shortly after, he became a partner. In November 1993, Flay partnered with Laurence Kretchmer to open Bolo Bar & Restaurant[16] in the Flatiron District, just a few blocks away from Mesa Grill.

    Flay opened a second Mesa Grill at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas in 2004, and in 2005 he opened Bar Americain, an American Brasserie, in Midtown Manhattan.[17] He continued to expand his restaurants by opening Bobby Flay Steak in the Borgata Hotel Casino & Spa in Atlantic City, New Jersey. This was followed by a third Mesa Grill in the Bahamas, located in The Cove at Atlantis Paradise Island, which opened on March 28, 2007.[6] The Las Vegas Mesa Grill earned Flay his only Michelin Star in 2008, which was taken away in the 2009 edition. Michelin did not publish a 2010 or 2011 Las Vegas edition, so the star could not be re-earned.

    Bolo Bar & Restaurant closed its doors on December 31, 2007, to make way for a condominium.[18]

    Aside from his restaurants and television shows, Flay has been a master instructor and visiting chef at the French Culinary Institute.[19] [20] Although he is not currently teaching classes, he occasionally visits when his schedule permits.[21]

    Flay established the Bobby Flay Scholarship in 2003. This full scholarship to the French Culinary Institute is awarded annually to a student in the Long Island City Culinary Arts Program. Flay personally helps select the awardee each year.[2] [22]

    Flay opened Bobby's Burger Palace (BBP) in Lake Grove, Long Island, on July 15, 2008. The restaurant is located at the Smith Haven Mall.[23] A second location opened on December 5, 2008, at the Monmouth Mall in Eatontown, New Jersey,[24] and a third location opened March 31, 2009, in The Outlets at Bergen Town Center in Paramus, New Jersey.[25] His fourth shop opened at the Mohegan Sun Casino in southeast Connecticut on July 1, 2009,[26] which is also the location of his second Bar Americain, which opened on November 18, 2009.[27] His fifth location of the burger chain opened in Philadelphia's University City on April 6, 2010. The sixth location of Bobby's Burger Palace opened in Washington, D.C., at 2121 K Street in Northwest on August 16, 2011.[28] On December 5, 2011, Flay opened the ninth location of Bobby's Burger Palace in Roosevelt Field Mall in Garden City, New York.[29] Flay opened the tenth and largest Bobby's Burger Palace site at Maryland Live! Casino in Hanover, Maryland, on June 7, 2012.[30] Bobby's Burger Palace's 11th location opened in College Park, Maryland.[31] At its peak, BBP had nineteen locations in eleven states and the District of Columbia.

    The original Mesa Grill in New York closed in September 2013 following a proposed rent increase by the landlord.[32]

    In May 2021, Mesa Grill in Caesars Palace was converted to an Italian restaurant called Amalfi by Bobby Flay. He also updated the menu and changed the name of his Las Vegas Bobby's Burger Palace to Bobby's Burgers. He now has four locations of Bobby's Burgers in Caesars Palace Las Vegas, Paris Hotel Las Vegas, Harrah's Las Vegas, and Yankee Stadium in New York City[33]

    As of September 2019, Flay has an estimated net worth of $30 million.[34]

    Other ventures

    Food Network and television

    Flay has hosted seventeen cooking shows and specials on both Food Network and Cooking Channel:

    On Throwdown! with Bobby Flay, the chef challenges cooks renowned for a specific dish or type of cooking to a cook-off of their signature dish. Flay was an Iron Chef on the show Iron Chef America. In 2000, when the original Iron Chef show traveled to New York for a special battle, he challenged Iron Chef Masaharu Morimoto to battle rock crab. After the hour battle ended, Flay stood on top of his cutting board and raised his arms in what one journalist wrote was "premature victory". As Morimoto felt that real chefs consider cutting boards and knives sacred, and being offended by Flay's flamboyant gesture, he criticized his professionalism, saying that Flay was "not a chef". Flay went on to lose the battle.[37] Flay challenged Morimoto to a rematch in Morimoto's native Japan. This time, Flay won.

    On a special episode of Iron Chef America originally airing on November 12, 2006, Flay and Giada De Laurentiis faced off against, and were defeated by, Batali and Rachael Ray. This was the highest rated show ever broadcast on Food Network.[38] Flay and Michael Symon defeated the team of Iron Chefs Cat Cora and Masaharu Morimoto in a special episode titled "Thanksgiving Showdown," which originally aired on November 16, 2008.[39] In an episode recorded in July 2010 and broadcast in March 2011, Montreal cooking show host Chuck Hughes beat Flay to become the youngest Canadian champ.[40]

    Beat Bobby Flay pits select chefs against host Flay to see if they can create dishes that are better than his.

    His specials include:

    In October 2021, Variety reported that Flay would leave Food Network after a 27-year run, after he and the network failed to reach an agreement on a new contract.[47] People reported that Flay had sought $100 million as part of the proposal.[48] In November 2021, it was reported that Flay had signed a new three-year deal with Food Network.[49]
