thirst for romance

I love this place!! Probably best saved for romantic interludes, it serves unpretentious delicious dishes inspired by European cuisine and is the cosiest place you are likely to stumble across in such a central location. I’ve been going there for several years and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend to anyone... especially the duck and lentil stew. The wine list is also pretty impressive.

Ate at this tiny restaurant for the first time last night with someone who has known and loved it for years and was totally sold on it.
Trusted his recomendation but was really pleased to find such fantastic food and a wonderful, discreet (out of time) atmosphere in Soho (opposite Mildreds, up near the John Snow) It has such an unassuming frontage that I must have been walking past it for years and never seen it. Everything we ate was utterly delicious from my beef carpaccio with rocket, parmesan and truffle oil / his dressed crab, and my seabass / his perfectly pink lamb through to the scrummy pudding that we shared so as not to pop.
Not cheap but not too break the bank - c. £80 for two with wine and water.
Small, dark, intimate (not the place to get lots of mates around the same table) perfect for a discreet liaison or meal for four. In summer they have a couple of tables outside too. Lovely staff and attentive but not over-fussy service. Really need to book. Firmly on my own list of favourites in the centre of town now.
