Nestled in Notting Hill sits Marianne, a restaurant started by chef Marianne Lumb. To start her career, Marianne began training in restaurants like the Michelin-starred Gravetye Manor in Sussex. In 2000, she began working as a private chef in the Mediterranean, America, and Australia. After gaining extensive knowledge while working in several different destinations and working within different seasons, Marianne published a book titled Kitchen Knife Skills and reached the finals of BBC’s MasterChef: The Professionals in 2009. And, finally, in 2013 Marianne took a leap of faith and opened her very own restaurant called, simply, Marianne. One month later she was crowned “London Restaurant Festival Chef of the Year.”
