Jose is a delightful tapas bar on Bermondsey Street, run by the street's resident Spanish chef, Jose Pizarro - who has another restaurant, Pizarro here as well.
Jose is the kind of place you should go after a holiday in Spain, to reminisce and wash the blues away with sherry and jamon iberico. You can sit at the (beautiful, marble) bar and the Spanish waitresses will put up with you practicing your dodgy espagnol after a few glasses of wine.
Interestingly, Jose is a refurbished sandwich shop that I used to frequent a few years ago when the street wasn't quite as fashionable as it is now. Sadly, it closed down after its lovely owner was murdered there by an ex-employee. It is great the place is having such a successful second life.
