"We’re pretty sure nothing bad can happen to you at Jolene, a bakery and Italian-leaning restaurant in Finsbury Park. Apart from maybe bulk-ordering pink paint and a pasta machine as you desperately try to recreate the magic at home. Come evening, almond croissant crumbs are brushed away, candles and chequered tablecloths come out, and catch-ups are fuelled by generous, seasonal plates of expertly made pasta. Silky, nutty sheets of pappardelle get all tangled up around meaty, slow-cooked ragus, and everything is cooked to perfection. " - jake missing, rianne shlebak, sinead cranna
