A handmade tale
The attention to detail at Navi becomes apparent the moment you’re seated. Those ceramic napkin rings holding artfully disarrayed oatmeal-coloured napkins? Julian Hills made those. Navi’s chef and owner, who has a degree in ceramics, also made all the plates and bowls, five to eight courses worth for everyone in a 25-seat restaurant that often does two sittings a night. The man’s been busy.
