    Anyway, you might imagine – having heard this – that Josephine is as expensive as Claude Bosi’s other restaurant, not far away, Bibendum (where Simon Hopkinson did wonderful things back in the 1980s and 1990s). The 3-course set lunch there is £95, 3 courses at dinner weigh in at £165. At Josephine, you can have the plat du jour for £16.50 but, on Wednesday it’s blade of beef slow-cooked in red wine and it was a hot day.

    This is a news piece I wrote for today’s Sunday Times Ireland (25 May 2025); for some reason it was not published. I’ll have a post about Chelsea 2025 in general very soon. Tom’s Substack is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber. The annual Chelsea Flower Show is the biggest and arguably most prestigious horticultural event in the world.

    I have no doubt that my father loved me, and I him, but he sometimes had a peculiar way of showing it. For example, although I was destined to be educated – up to a point – by the Jesuits, he decided to send me not from my Froebel convent school directly to the prep school at Belvedere, but into the not so tender embrace of the Irish Christian Brothers. Many of my Froebel classmates, the boys, skipped this step and I came to envy them. I have a feeling that this was an attempt to toughen me up.
