Totally agree with this. Much better pizza and also much cheaper - even allowing for the discounts available at PE. The gelato is also very good if you want a dessert. Some might be put off as the menu is quite short compared to the dozens of pizzas on offer at PE. The only issue at...

There's a challenge! His are baked, not fried and use free range eggs which are runny or very soft set. He has a variety of flavours and even has a vegetarian version which my mate says are very good. If you love a good egg then I would definitely try these. I am known to drive over from...

As you mention Scotch Eggs, Picnic Corner - purveyor of the best scotch eggs in Brighton - has a new home. He has been back selling at Florence Road Market, HISBe and through a few select pubs. However, him and a mate have just taken over Lucky 13 café on Lewes Road. The following is a note...

Did you see the review of Temper in the Observer last week - the new Neil Rankin restaurant? Sounds right up your street - big lumps of meat and fire!

We went to Aqua in Lewes the other night. The set menu at £12.95 for three courses is really good value and food was excellent. I had bruschetta to start (others had smoked salmon or soup), belly pork with kale and rosemary potatoes (other options included steak or risotto) and a very nice...

I am not a man of small appetite but I have only once tried a double in Burger Brothers and I struggled to finish it. I think that their standard burgers are 5oz or 6oz rather than the standard quarter pounder. BensGrandad - there is only limited seating in Burger Brothers and also as...

The main reason is to help melt the cheese but steaming also softens the bun a little. Just before the end of cooking you top the burger with cheese, bacon, etc (not salad and sauce) and put the top part of the bun on top. You then put the dome over the top and squirt in a small amount of...

Anyone who has been through this thread knows I like a good burger. I don't include places like McDonalds, and BK in this. I like Grubbs but not a great fan of Uncle Sams (too inconsistent across the franchise). The key is the quality of the meat and the preparation. Like CheeseRolls I make...

Still not tried Coggins. I have always been a big fan of the Troll going back to the Wood Store days. However, since the move to the shack, I don't think that they are as good. Not sure if it is because Nibbler is on the grill but they don't taste as good. A mate went there post match...

I went to La Campana tonight with a friend tonight, Really enjoyed the food but forgot your warning about the portion sizes and over ordered. Good value for the money though.

Herr Tubthumper - have you broken your Burger Brothers cherry yet? If not, you really must get this sorted on your trip over next week.

No, the correct version is without cheese. What you like is Gratin Dauphinois. As someone who can't eat cheese, this obsession with putting cheese on things is really annoying- especially when not properly named or described. Have you been to the Old Oak Barn in Burgess Hill? I had a very...

Classic - just cream and garlic - or the more annoying version with cheese?

I see that today was the opening of the new kitchen at Brighton Beer Dispensary. It is called Dizzy Gull and is from the team at The Set. The menu looks interesting including: Bacon Pickled Egg Deep Fried Mash (isn't that a croquette?) Oxtail Marmite Benedict KFC Rabbit Battered Mackerel Hot Dog

I guess that The Pass lost their star once Matt Gillan moved on to pastures new.

Never made it out of the O'Hare myself but can recommend Tortas Frontera in Terminal 1 for a pre-flight snack. The Short Rib tostada I had last year was great - far too good for airport food. Don't be put off by the queues - they move quite quickly.

Been past a few times and wondered what it was like so will give this a go after your review. We like the Andalucia but when we went in a few weeks ago they had a really cut down menu and we chose not to stay. We ended up in Picasso's that evening and had a great meal. It has really improved...

Seven Stars does a variety of Gintini's as well as craft beer. They make their own flavoured gins using Sipsmiths as the donor gin.

Are you over for the Brentford game? If so, I'll drop him a line and see if he has any pop-ups planned for that weekend. He has the Polygon and also burgers at Marwoods café some Saturdays.

He has always looked for quality - look at how much he has raised the bar when it comes to the quality of burgers in Brighton. The boys at Burger Brothers took their lead from him as did several others. If he can do the same for kebabs then it will be a great thing for the customers. As for...
