The retro charm of this former butcher's with its lovely vintage tiles and wainscoting is eminently friendly. Walk past the delicatessen counter and rows of wine bottles (available for purchase) and into the dinky bistro. Premium produce, wholesome, unpretentious cooking and heroic feelgood flavours, with an unexpected Mediterranean dimension. Fritters of pig’s trotters, rings of squid deep-fried in a spicy bagna cauda and a house-made pie of apples drenched in cognac are just a few of the forthright delicacies that can be shared with friends or loved ones, washed down with a glass of fine wine. What’s not to like?
