A la Colthard/The Wolseley
There have been many tributes to Jeremy King being shunted out of the Wolseley by majority Thai investors, The Minor Group, so allow me to add my own.
Quite simply The Wolseley will not be the Wolseley without the elegant Jeremy King doing his tour of the restaurant.
He has that great gift of making every diner more than welcome but special.
I used it mainly for breakfast and was one of the chosen admitted to the horseshoe inner area.
I know of another, a powerhouse in football who would stay all morning so couriered correspondence was delivered to him there.
My usual companion was a non-viveur adman.
To help them out in the pandemic, he bought vouchers a fund which Jeremy stated was for the staff who suffered from no tips not the restaurant.
On my friend’s birthday The Wolseley hand-delivered a dinner.
My finance friends said that guys like Jeremy King want supine not passive investors.
I am a muddle head when it comes to finance but I know about restaurants and Jeremy knows how to run one.
