The Daily Telegraph's Jasper Gerard visits the reopened River Café, Rose Gray and Ruth Rogers' London restaurant that brought us Jamie Oliver, and suggests rarely can such a large eaterie have maintained such "incredible standards".

Jay Rayner, writing in the Observer, thinks Jamie's Italian will make the high street a far tastier place.
