London's top hotels do like getting a named chef to run their restaurants, from Jean-Georges at The Connaught and The Emory to Tom Kerridge at Corinthia London's Kerridge's Grill. Now, the Corinthia London has announced a shake-up for its second restaurant. What's currently The Northall is about to get a full overhaul by Italian chef Francesco Mazzei.
Mazzei is probably best known in London for restaurants that include Franco's, St Alban and L'Anima. He then teamed up with D&D, opening three restaurants for them - Fiume, Radici and his main restaurant Sartoria. More recently, he's been in residency at the Corinthia Palace in Malta, a partnership which likely led to him taking on the London revamp.
At this stage, little has been revealed about the restaurant except that it will, of course, be an Italian affair. Mazzei himself says "It is the perfect location for me to showcase the most beautiful, classic Italian cooking that I am so excited to share" while Corinthia London's MD Thomas Kochs says "Francesco’s personality and his spectacular Italian food will be irresistible for sure."
We'll have lots more information about this one in the run-up to the opening.
