Hell's Kitchen
Midtown West area
Hell's Kitchen is a neighborhood on the west side of Manhattan, roughly between 34th and 59th Streets.
Once notorious for poverty, crime, and gang activity, it has since gentrified considerably.
The name also belongs to a reality cooking competition hosted by Gordon Ramsay, where aspiring chefs endure high-pressure challenges and harsh criticism: Did you see last night's Hell's Kitchen?
