A small, no-reservations pasta bar just steps from Borough Market serving some of the finest fresh pasta in London at remarkably fair prices. The pici cacio e pepe and the pappardelle with eight-hour Dexter beef shin ragu are essential orders. Queues form before opening and can stretch to an hour, so arrive early or try the Shoreditch branch.
