Mrs DCH took me for breakfast at Perch in Lancing this morning. From the road it doesn't look much but a nice dining space inside with sea views - this morning there were plenty of kitesurfers to watch while we were waiting.
It seems to be very popular, they turned away loads of people who...
That's good to hear as I have eaten out twice in the last couple of days and the service has been poor. Yesterday met a former colleague for lunch at Swallows Return. We only had hot sandwiches but our food took an eternity to come out. I'm sure the forgot as it didn't arrive until well...
The food in AMI is great although it can sometimes get noisy in there. They don't seem to change their menu very often so it can become a bit repetitive as somewhere to go to regularly.
It's quite a large space and was previously occupied by Aqua before they went bust. I'm surprised another...
Met up with some friends in London for a pre-theatre dinner and we went to Brasserie Zedel just off of Piccadilly Circus. With so many tip off tourist traps in this part of London, it was interesting to find this gem. The food in the brasserie was good quality and their Prix Fixe at £10.95 for...
Some brief reviews:
Fat Fig, Chichester
Wanted a Monday lunch in Chichester but Bills and Cote were full so we ended up at the Fat Fig. Mrs DCH had an omelette and I had eggs benedict, both of which were good. Daughter had pancakes but wasn't as keen on them. Would go back again as...
Rincon De Pepe was good but not the best - certainly worth a visit though as with tapas, it can vary from dish to disk.
Went to level 1 the other Saturday lunchtime. Nice set up (it doesn't feel like you are sat on the edge of a car park / bowling alley) and good views out to sea on a hot day...
After tapas talk this week made a last minute call into Rincon De Pepe.
We enjoyed all bar one dish and, as it usually the case, over ordered. Portions are on the larger side - their patatas would easily serve three people - but most were around the £6 mark so decent value. For those who have...
Has been on previous years. Not been for a while as they seem to have cut the menu right down and taken off our favourite dishes.
I can recommend a couple of other good tapas places out West. First of all, tapas night at Boathouse Littlehampton Marina is really good - all prepared by NSC's...
Went back to Pitch in Worthing this week - all very good and service excellent as ever. My only issue there is one I have with many restaurants - ridiculously overpriced puddings. I'm sure that they are very nice but £9 for a sweet is too much - we went across the road and had two very nice...
This is why I am surprised he has gone back to working in a kitchen. He has previously said that he likes to be able to talk to the customers and hates being shut away. He also has a great mistrust of others so won't hand over to others after he felt his reputation for quality was being lost...
