"Planque is a grand industrial lair in Haggerston that also acts as a wine club for trainee Bond villains. The vibe is cool to the point of chilly, though the staff are brilliant and highly knowledgeable—you suspect that there is a Master of Wine or two among them—and the French food has the ability to be outstanding. Serious grape appreciators and small plates lovers will be in heaven here." - heidi lauth beasley, jake missing, sinead cranna, rianne shlebak
