Emilia's Crafted Pasta (Canary Wharf)

You walk into Emilia's expecting another corporate lunch spot, but instead you're hit with the smell of fresh egg pasta and a kitchen that actually knows what it's doing. The room's got that polished-but-not-trying-too-hard vibe that works for everything from a quick midweek meal to impressing a client who's tired of the usual chain restaurant circuit. The pasta here isn't messing around—handmade, seasonal, the sort of thing that makes you question why you've been eating dried stuff from a box.
