Emma Bunton wants to open a restaurant in London with her partner Jade Jones.

The singer has ditched plans to move to the US to forge a TV presenting career and will instead focus on running a family business.

Jones, a trainee chef, told the Daily Mail: "Yes, I want to open a restaurant with Emma. We're not sure when or where yet, but it's something we're seriously looking into."

He added that the former Baby Spice will be banished from the kitchen.

"I've heard Gordon Ramsay has two kitchens in his house, so we might do the same. One for me and one for her. Every time she picks up a knife I get terrified," he said.

Bunton is not the first Spice Girl to go into the restaurant trade. Earlier this month, Gordon Ramsay confirmed that he is to open an eatery in LA with Victoria Beckham.
