Tom Aikens has been a busy man. What with all the trouble surrounding his restaurant business collapsing into administration, owing all that money to his suppliers and still having to find the time to launch his new cookery book and cookware.
He's been so busy in fact that he hasn't had the time to call up Canary Wharf Group, the company in charge of building and leasing Canada Square Pavilion, to say that he no longer intends to launch a restaurant with them.
You see Aikens was set to open a second Tom's Kitchen at the development but his spokeswoman told Caterer two weeks ago that the plans have been shelved.
But Camille Waxer, vice president of retail at Canary Wharf Group, told Kitchen Rat today that as far as she is aware plans for Tom's Kitchen are still going ahead. "We haven't heard from him to suggest otherwise," she said.
