Her first restaurant since Sessions Arts Club is a small set menu room above the Thames, open Tuesday to Saturday.

The prices: four courses at lunch for £80. Dinner is six to eight dishes for £110. A wine pairing is £80, and a non-alcoholic pairing is £60.
The drinks: three house cocktails, including a Cedro Martini served in two instalments, plus three non-alcoholic cocktails.
When and where: Tuesday to Saturday, noon to 1.30pm and 5.30pm to 9pm. Level 11, St Clement, London WC2R 2NF.
Go if: it is a special occasion and you want the window seat.
