(Picture: Daniel Hambury/@stellapicsltd)London celebrity chef Jason Atherton has warned he will have to start closing thriving restaurants in the new year because it has become impossible to recruit staff.
The Michelin-starred restaurateur, who has seven venues in the capital, including his Mayfair flagship Pollen Street Social, said he will only have a big enough team to operate “two or three” effectively if the recruitment crisis does not ease.
