DETROIT (AP) — The Food Network's newest "Iron Chef" is opening a restaurant in the renovated Book-Cadillac hotel in Detroit.

Cleveland chef Michael Symon's new eatery will open on the ground floor of the historic hotel. He tells the Detroit Free Press it tentatively is called Roast and will be more than a steakhouse. It will feature two huge rotisseries and wood-burning grills where chefs will roast pigs, baby goats, spring lambs and other items.

The Detroit News reports Cleveland-based developer John Ferchill will release grand opening details at a Tuesday afternoon news event.

The Book-Cadillac Hotel was the epitome of glamour when it opened its doors in 1924. But its 60-year run ended when a declining Detroit no longer could sustain it.
