"A classy French brasserie in Chelsea that can make a pot of buttery frog legs feel romantic, Josephine Bouchon wants everyone to feel the love with its prix fixe menu. There’s a choice of four starters, four mains, and two desserts—from a decadent pike mousse with langoustine sauce, to an elegant brawn made by the same expert hands as Cadet, to Lyonnaise beignets. It’s available at lunch, too." - jake missing, sinead cranna, rianne shlebak

"There’s nothing subtle about the wooing process at Josephine Bouchon, a French spot in Chelsea. It's all heavy, red velvet curtains, dangling, low-level lanterns, and breathy candle flames. It’s the little touches that make all the difference—scarlet Js imprinted on each plate and curtains hand-embroidered with ‘Josephine’. Champagne arrives with a bowl of moreish pork and duck scratchings, garlic splatters from excellent buttery frog legs to create a Jackson Pollock number on white tablecloths, and well-dressed diners seem on the edge of proposing or being proposed to." - rianne shlebak, jake missing, sinead cranna
