Press enquiries

Write to [email protected]. We will happily have you in the kitchen at half past eight when the fish is going on the ice, which is the interesting hour, rather than at service, which is not.

We do not do paid placements, and we will not host a shoot on a Friday or Saturday night.

The interesting hour is half past eight.

That is when Sofia decides the menu, standing over the ice.
