Advantages: FOOD, fun and great company.

Disadvantages: I live to far away now...

If you dont know Florians then looking at it from the outside you would be forgiven to think that this was just a run of the mill winebar. However once you are inside you realise that yes the front is a lovely lively often full to the brim winebar, up a few steps at the back and you are inside Florians restaurant. The menu here is always amazing changes a lot and always specials on the black board. You forget all about the busy wine bar area sitting in the restaurant it seems like a calm oasis far away from any where busy. The restaurant is decorated white with lots of green plants around and then a LOT of art on the walls, Anything that takes the owners fancy's I think <g>.

Talking about the owners. This is 2 friends Arnie and Franco and well they are GREAT fun, both of them from Italy (iTAAly <g>) but have lived in England for years. They are fun to be around and the perfect hosts.

The restaurant mainly serves modern Italian food but occasionally something else gets thrown in for good measure. They also serve food in the wine bar a more light food menu than the full blown menu from the restaurant. But also well worth a try. They have a extensive wine list but the house wine is very drinkable and easy on the palatte. Something for every taste on the menu though.

DO try it should you happen to be in Crouch End. Every one there knows it and it is a wonderful hang out. (and AMAZING food) You wont be disappointed.
