Whenever Rick Bayless is involved, even the tiniest rumor is sure to spread fast. The lastest: The celebrity chef is supposedly negotiating for a space along trendy West Randolph Street.

Chicago Real Estate Daily reports that Bayless is in negotiations to lease space at 900 W. Randolph, a small storefront on the corner of Randolph and Peoria. We hope that the venerable N&G Produce Company (a fixture for almost a century) hasn't finally decided to close, because it's right next door to that site.

A spokesman for Bayless declined to comment. We'll keep an eye on this story as it develops.
