The date

CinCin earns its reputation the old-fashioned way: climb a staircase off Robson into a warm golden room and immediately smell the six-foot wood-fired grill that has been perfuming everything since noon. From there the evening runs itself. The handmade pasta is the kind you photograph then go quiet over, and the heated terrace is worth requesting if the weather cooperates. Right for any occasion that justifies pretending you eat like this weekly.

How to do it

Climb the staircase off Robson into the warm golden room (or book the heated terrace if it's mild), where the six-foot wood grill scents everything. Order the handmade pasta and a grill plate, lean on the deep wine list, and dress up a notch, this is big-date Italian for an anniversary or a 'past three dates' moment. Budget close to two hours of the polished-but-not-stuffy kind, then take the West End night as it comes.
