Word has reached Caterer Towers that there are a few things happening at Eight at the Thatch - the home of Jeremy and Jane Cooper, winners of Raymond Blanc's TV reality show the Restaurant.
While details are scarce at this early stage it is understood that a meeting will take place tonight between Blanc and Peach Pub Company, who have supported the business and the Hooper's emerging careers as a partner of the show, during which the site will be discussed.
The Hoopers have been on maternity/ paternity leave from the site following the birth of their first child in March. Eight at the Thatch opened in Thame in Oxfordshire on 14 November 2007 and currently lists Christian Cilia as head chef and Sara Bates as general manager.
Auditions for the second series of the Restaurant have been taking place in Manchester and London during March and April which will be shown later in the year.
Log onto Caterersearch tommorow when we will be able to reveal more.
