Mere: Monica Galetti's new family-inspired restaurant

The top chef and MasterChef: The Professionals judge on staying true to herself and the inspirations behind her first restaurant in London

Things have been amazing since we opened Mere. Don't get me wrong, it's the toughest thing my husband David and I have ever done but it's also hugely rewarding. I am no longer just a chef, I'm also a mother, and having to juggle that with the business can be really difficult at times. You have to be very driven to want to succeed. I don't see why you wouldn't want to commit to something 110 per cent.
