This place is fantastic - it is, I think, my favourite restaurant on the planet. Brilliant and imaginative menu, inspired wine pairing, a strong focus on locally sourced ingredients, very friendly and tremendously well-informed staff. I really couldn't ask for more, I honestly couldn't.
Bowled over by the notion that the menu changes every few weeks, too.
I've just been for my second visit and having had such an overwhelmingly amazing experience last time I was worried that I might have built it up in my imagination too much and that it wouldn't live up to my recollection. Not so - in fact if anything it was even better. So good I literally found myself sitting there bursting into involuntary laughter every now and again it was such a joy.
We had the tasting menu with paired wines, seated at "the table by the pass", two seats up at a bar by the kitchen - which meant we not only could see the fascinating food preparation but also got to speak with the chefs, which enhanced the experience further still.
This amazing place deserves at least one Michelin star if not more, but it's clearly not on their radar yet and for the moment it seems to be comparatively unheard of: so if you're eating out in Brighton get a table there while it's still not too hard to get a reservation!
