Nada Thomas is the new head chef at Her. It turns out I actually know her sister-in-law and when I mentioned I had chatted to Nada, Belinda described her as a “pocket rocket, and we love her.” Nada exudes love for cooking and hospitality. She loves what she does, loves her team and it feels as though she has an endless supply of ideas for menus in the future. This current menu is an expression of Nada’s love for European cooking. Having worked at The Press Club and ten years at Cecconi’s, Nada’s menu draws inspiration from Italian, French and Spanish traditions with a soupcon of her Turkish heritage. I have long been a fan of Her with its layers of goodness from the rooftop bar to BKK, and my absolute dream of a bar, the Record Room and the ground level Her Bar with its chic modern glam. Nada has added another layer of loveliness to this venue and I had such a good time talking to her.
