"This French spot on Fulham Road is all heavy red velvet curtains, dangling lanterns, and breathy candle flames. Garlic splatters from excellent buttery frog legs to create a Jackson Pollock number on white tablecloths and sharing plates are served family-style in casserole dishes. The mustardy tarragon sauce on rabbit is beyond anything we’ve whipped up from a Schwartz sauce packet, and the little touches—scarlet Js imprinted on each plate and curtains hand-embroidered with ‘Josephine’—make us feel like a giddy, lovestruck teenager." - heidi lauth beasley, jake missing, rianne shlebak, sinead cranna
