When it comes to eating out, we like to do it right. This is mostly because we hardly ever get any time alone, but also because life is short, and you’ve got to savour all the flavours. We’re lucky to have Brighton on our doorstep; a city with hundreds of interesting and delicious options for dining out, but it didn’t make it easy to compile this top five favourite restaurants list! So without further ado you…
Skyfall restaurant is the perfect place for a chilled out date, delicious food, great cocktails and a relaxed atmosphere in a central Hove location, and it was where we spent our Saturday night, and perfect timing for being asked to review a restaurant as it was Sam’s birthday! It was a super cold evening but we were cosy inside, comfy on squishy chairs and seated by the window; perfect for people watching and checking out…
The Jetty is a new restaurant on Brighton’s seafront, in the Brighton Harbour Hotel & Spa. It’s not been open for long so hasn’t seen a sunny Summer, but I know it will be the perfect place for a post seaside stroll drink or dinner. Spacious and bright with carefully chosen decor it’s a far cry from how it looked in its previous guise! We went for Afternoon Tea last week, and were seated on…
Last weekend I had a pre-birthday meal with one of my loveliest friends at MEATliquor. It’s somewhere I’ve eaten a few times before and never fail to enjoy it, as long as I’ve not eaten much earlier in the day! I love the serving style: everything arrives on a big tray and you shove a bit of kitchen towel in your collar, and dig in, no plates needed! In an ideal world you’ll share your…
The Chequers Inn in Slaugham opened a couple of months ago under new management, and will have accommodation available within a few weeks too. It’s located just north of Haywards Heath in a really picturesque little village. We visited for Sunday Roast last weekend and we’re seated in the covered conservatory area overlooking the garden and a sweeping field surrounded by woods. It’s about a 35 minute drive from Brighton, and perfectly placed for a…
If you’d have told me that a fusion of Asian and Latin flavours would work well together I would have been dubious, but when Bookatable offered to treat us to a meal in London when we were up for the day the intrigue was too much and we booked at Asia de Cuba, located in the St Martins Lane hotel in Covent Garden. The decor in the restaurant is stunning, huge circular columns covered in…
After what seems like months since I knew Wahaca was arriving in Brighton I finally got to enjoy a meal there last night and boy was it worth the wait! I’m a huge fan of Mexican food although I don’t like really spicy things I find that most Mexican dishes combine so many different flavours that my reluctance to try really spicy things doesn’t matter!
On Sunday I had a leisurely lunch at YO! Sushi in Brighton. I took my friend Katie and we probably weren’t the ideal diners for a sushi restaurant; neither of us eat seafood and Katie is a vegetarian. However we both left comfortably full having found loads of different dishes to scoff, way more selection than I thought there would be for a non fish eater!
