I was about to lose my hope to find a nice modern Italian restaurant in London, well don't get me wrong, you can have a wonderful Italian meal but it will cost you!
Zucca restaurant in Bermondsey Street is a modest and unpretentious with simple white furniture and a open kitchen.
The service is very attentive on the edge of being o.t.t., pouring water and wine for us, every 2 minutes, we couldn't relax much.
The food compensates for everything: fresh, flavoursome but delicate at the same time. Foccacia and Ciabatta was served without any charge!
My main dish was a slow cooked Octopus with Jersey Royals, it was tender and gentle on the palate.
My companion's dish was Monk fish with lentils and sautéed sea kale,the fish- firm texture and lovely grilled flavour ,wonderful!
You know that feeling, when you are not that full with a little space for dessert-but-don't-want- a whole-one?
I ordered a moist hazelnut and coffee cake, it was the"icing on the cake" with a double espresso.
