"The original Padella in Borough Market is arguably one of the greatest affordable date options in London. Sadly, there is just one small snag—it’s walk-in only and you’re likely to spend the first hour of your date bickering over why you couldn’t just go somewhere that takes bookings and yes, actually now that you mention it, you did hate the gift they got you for your birthday. HOW MANY TIMES does ONE PERSON have to SAY that they don’t like Twin Peaks? We’ve all been there. Luckily, for lovers of pasta and devoted other halves everywhere, Padella in Shoreditch does take bookings. Get the pici cacio e pepe, get an eight quid spritz, and get very smug." - Heidi Lauth Beasley, Jake Oliver
