MasterChef star to close Michelin-backed restaurant OSMA in Greater Manchester but plans new location

Dani Heron, a former MasterChef contestant, will close her Michelin-backed restaurant OSMA in Greater Manchester on February 9. The decision comes after five years of operation, primarily due to difficulties in finding experienced staff. OSMA will relocate to a new kitchen in Manchester city center, where it will continue to serve customers. The owners expressed hope for a more sustainable business model in the new location. The restaurant, known for its seasonal menus and Scandinavian inspiration, gained a spot in the Michelin Guide in 2024. The owners thanked their staff and customers for their support during the restaurant's journey.
