Bouchee (La), London

Cozily intimate, this charming little French eatery is reminiscent of the exquisitely dark and tiny restaurants you might find nestling in the Montmartre district of Paris. Shadowy candlelight flickers against the brick-walled interior, creating a romantic setting for stylish and affluent diners. The downstairs bar is also ideal for a relaxed drink. The cuisine is of a consistently high standard, the menu changing with the seasons, although the dishes are for the most part typically French. Ample portions and only the freshest, quality produce ensure good value for money.
