“We are so excited to be open, and we'll also continue to operate our hugely successful ‘AT HOME’ range, which has sold out since we started in January 2021.

“Mario and I are so pleased to be able to constantly improve and nurture our brands according to what the customer enjoys, working with rock star teams behind the scenes including interior design, marketing, not to mention our chefs and e-commerce team who've worked tirelessly throughout the pandemic.”
