Interview: Theo Clench discusses the concept restaurant Cycene

In October, a new concept restaurant opened in Shoreditch, London: Cycene offers only 16 covers each night and aims to provide a relaxed atmosphere. It is part of Blue Mountain School, and provides a cultural space which includes, amongst other attractions, an art gallery and a fashion store, with diners allowed (and encouraged) to move around after starting the evening at the bar on the lower floor. As well as the dining experience, guests can enter the kitchen where their ten-course menu is being prepared.
