"For someone who’s trained in London – one of the world’s culinary capitals – chef Paul Longworth of one-Michelin-starred Rhubarb never thought he would one day lead his own restaurant into the Michelin starred league. His was a sound grounding in French classics, and the goal was to run his own space. Then in 2013, the dream turned into reality. He got together with business partners Jerome Desfonds and Alice Low-Ang, and Rhubarb was born. “When we opened, there was no Michelin Guide here so Jerome and I set our own standards. It was a labour of love,” he says. “When Rhubarb got its star, it was a proud moment because it means that we were operating at a good level and doing better than we thought we were. It was very satisfying to know that.”" - Azimin Saini
