A first taste of Florence Knight’s new restaurant, Lunette

TL;DR

  • Florence Knight's new solo venture, Lunette, is located on the 11th floor of the St Clement hotel.
  • The restaurant's design, with lowered stainless-steel benches and a semi-circular shape inspired by Aldwych tube station, was customized to Knight's specifications.
  • Lunette will offer daily shifting tasting menus for lunch and dinner, with optional drink pairings.
  • Knight previously worked at Sessions Arts Club and Polpetto, known for her seasonally led menus.
  • The chef emphasizes refinement and a focus on letting the ingredients shine, creating a gentle rather than loud dining experience.
