"Put simply, Casse-Croûte is so charming it hurts. This is an old-school French restaurant where saying very ravishing things like “deux beaujolais, s’il vous plaît” and “stop hogging the bread basket, babe” just makes sense. It isn’t a super formal affair and we like it best for brave acts of spontaneous seduction. Float in for a gingham tablecloth and côte de boeuf fix, or capitalise on the picture-perfect whimsy of Bermondsey Street on one of the pavement tables." - jake missing, rianne shlebak, sinead cranna, heidi lauth beasley
