Sisley at The River Cafe. May 2011.


Where else would you choose to celebrate 15 years of Sisley on a Summer's evening than the beautiful River Café. Lucy Yeomans co-hosted the event with Sisley's Christine D'Ornano. With simple tables adorned with pink peonies, delicious plates of Italy's finest bites and Jackson Scott heard strumming on the outside lawn, one could have easily forgotten they were in South West London.
