Daniel Rose Brings Le Perroquet to London

Daniel Rose, the chef who won a devoted following in Paris, has opened his first restaurant in London. Called Le Perroquet, it brings his particular brand of French cooking, warm, generous and rooted in classical technique, to the British capital.

Rose built his reputation in France, an American chef who earned rare acceptance at the heart of the Paris dining scene. His move across the Channel is part of a wider trend that has seen internationally celebrated chefs choose London as the stage for their next chapter, drawn by the city's appetite and its cosmopolitan crowd.

Le Perroquet leans into the pleasures of the French brasserie: seasonal plates, careful sauces and the kind of unfussy hospitality that rewards a long lunch or an unhurried dinner. It arrives among a striking run of high-profile openings in the city, as ambitious operators from around the world plant flags in London.

For food lovers, the arrival is a welcome one. A chef of Rose's pedigree opening a first London address is exactly the sort of news that reshapes a city's dining map, and a reason to book a table.
