Sitting down is the new standing up! Manu Feildel leads the arrivals at the socially distanced opening night of Henrietta Charcoal Chicken in Sydney
New Sydney restaurant Henrietta Charcoal Chicken was forced to be inventive with their opening night amid COVID-19, with the A-list snapped seated, rather than standing against a photo wall.
Celebrity chef Manu Feildel and his wife Clarissa Weerasena led the celebrity arrivals at the charcoal chicken restaurant in Surry Hills on Wednesday.
The celebrity chef, 46, cut a dapper figure in a dark brown leather jacket, white button-up shirt, black slacks and patterned leather cowboy boots.

His wife Clarissa stunned in a vintage-inspired red sweater and a retro-look blue, red and pink mid-length swing skirt.
The loved-up pair kissed while posing for the cameras, looking very glam against the fashionably stark interior.
My Kitchen Rules judge Colin Fassnidge made the dinner a family affair, bringing his two children Maeve and Lilly, as well as wife Jane.

The 45-year-old stayed warm with a woolen beanie, adding the accessory to a simple ensemble of a white shirt, beige chino pants and a navy blue coat.
He later tugged the beanie off for a series of group photos.
The two famous foodies were joined by The Block’s Mitch Edwards and Mark McKie, who cheekily threw social distancing to the wind and posed on the celebrity chef’s laps.
