Jake Gyllenhaal To Open Restaurant

Jake Gyllenhaal is developing a new organic restaurant venture with top cook Chris Fischer.

Sources claim the closet chef once promised himself he’d open a top-end eatery if his acting career took off by the time he was 30. He’s 27.

And Gyllenhaal, who has made regular appearances on top chef Mario Batali’s hit U.S. cookery show Molto Mario, is getting serious about the venture.

A pal says Gyllenhaal and pal Fischer are looking at real estate in Los Angeles - with a view to opening their own place.

The insider says, “Cooking is his big hobby and his passion“.

Reports suggest Gyllenhaal is even planning a summer vacation cycling tour of food-lovers mecca Tuscany, Italy with his girlfriend Reese Witherspoon - to seek inspiration for his new restaurant.

He’ll be the latest in a long line of Hollywood stars who have opened restaurants - Morgan Freeman, Sandra Bullock, Justin Timberlake, Ashton Kutcher and Tara Reid are just some of the celebs who have found success as restaurateurs.
