Covent Garden florist meets modern Italian cuisine. Each dish is lovingly conceived, although you pay handsomely for that love. But with a typical meal of buckwheat penne with 'pixel' chopped tomatoes for starter, rolled seabass with gateau di verdura (vegetable gateau) for main, and tepid chocolate tart with red pear sorbet for pudding, who's counting? The €8 happy hour (6-8pm) can give you an inkling of the previous night's menu.

Been there a few times. The food is excellent, fresh and neatly set up. I would recommend the swordfish meatballs (or fishballs...). A good selection of wines is available. There are only a few tiny tables, so don't venture there with a big group of friends. Desserts are pretty good too and there are lots of flowers everywhere (which adds to the romantic atmosphere of this restaurant).
