Daphnes –  Step into a dreamlike floral world at Daphne’s this Chelsea Flower Show season, as the restaurant unveils a surreal installation inspired by the works of Salvador Dalí and Dance of the Dandelion, in partnership with Casamigos.  Created in line with this year’s Out of This World theme, the installation transforms the façade into a floating floral dreamscape, where sculptural dandelions, celestial tones and abundant blooms appear suspended in motion.  Throughout the week, guests are invited to discover a limited-edition menu of seasonal Italian specials, complemented by a collection of Casamigos cocktails created exclusively for the occasion. Whether joining us for long lunches on the terrace, or a post-Chelsea Flower Show dinner, Daphne’s offers an elegant escape in the heart of Chelsea.
