OPINION - A fond farewell to Le Gavroche, the restaurant that changed so much: The Leader Podcast

When a restaurant has been open more than half a century, closing doesn’t come easily.

“Emotionally I’m drained,” Michel Roux Jr’s told the Evening Standard newspaper “I’m knackered.”

Last Friday, he announced that 56 years after its first, Le Gavroche would run its final service in January of next year.

In this episode we speak to our Reveller editor David Ellis, who hasn’t just eaten in the famous dining room - he’s cooked in the kitchen there too!
