If your love language involves carbs and chocolate, head to 27 Old Compton Street this February for one of the wackiest Valentine's Day main courses ever – bucatini al cioccolato.

Nima Safaei's Italian restaurant in Soho is putting chocolate bucatini on the menu as a main, inviting diners to swap predictable date-night dinners for a full-sized bowl of pasta, loaded with a chocolate and mascarpone sauce and topped with other aphrodisiacs, including basil and chilli.
Launching on Saturday 14 February, the indulgent chocolate pasta dish will be available for one week only. It's priced at £12.50 per portion and has to be preordered 72 hours in advance – head over here to book your table.
