Ruthie Rogers is a chef and owner of The River Café, a favorite London restaurant of ours. Her newest book, Table 4 at The River Café, is out next week.
We chat with her from her room at Claridge’s about the derp contingency, Childish Gambino voicing Yoshi, Rihanna’s house getting sprayed, recipes as part science and part poetry, primary colors, hot pink pizza ovens, virtuous cookery, coming up on Julia Child, “atmosphere only” restaurants, dining room proposals, her book on lemons with Ed Ruscha, Le Bernardin, how she touches a table, her martini order, and our comfort foods.
