But, after a year of expensive cookery school and months in Michelin-star kitchens blow-drying edible ferns for free, she finds herself making sandwiches (heritage duck egg and black garlic mayonnaise on sourdough, admittedly, but sandwiches all the same) in a north London café and stuck in an ill-advised situationship with a twentysomething who thinks he’s the next star of The Bear.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThen, a gorgeous doctor strolls in and orders an espresso.
