Gordon Ramsey launches Pétrus

The re-birth of Pétrus builds upon the successful and prestigious provenance of this restaurant now under Head Chef Sean Burbidge who offers a modern European menu. The new location at 1 Kinnerton Street in Knightsbridge displays a stunning open cellar in the centre of the dining room bringing to view over 1500 bottles of wine.  I only mention this because their set lunch menu is a very affordable £25 per head.
