The universe, ever rewarding. A recent visit to the Chiltern Firehouse led to a chance encounter with Le Manoir owner Raymond Blanc, one of my favourite chefs, and who passed by post-dinner to say bonsoir. To bump into restaurant royalty can be affirming.

It’s still where Leo stays when in town; Taylor Swift partied there after finishing her London tour; Kate Moss, Rita Ora, and Cara Delavigne might be described as regulars.
