Looking forward to trying 'The Salt Room' at the Hilton Metropole once it's open in the next few months - http://restaurantsbrighton.co.uk/salt-room-brighton/

It's amazing how the previous establishment remained on that site for so long.

Ditto but in early Feb. Only reason it's not earlier is that the 2014 gained weight has to be lost first !

Took the team to Bill's in Horsham for our Christmas Party, twas' very good and reasonable!

A couple of restaurants worthy of note:

The Town House, Arundel (Never disappoints)
La Campania, Arundel (Gaining a good reputation, great home cooked Italian food)
The Bay Tree, Arundel (Bistro, tight on elbow space, good food)
South Lodge (of course)

Still question the use of the term "The Salt Room", as this now seems to be the biggest "NO" in food! Still, as you say, great spot and could be very good.

A mention for " The Black Duck " at Warbleton.
Good food, good service, good surroundings, reasonable prices.

we're not overly blessed with fine eateries in shoreham but the crown & anchor is pretty reliable. Nice to eat outside in the summer as well

went to the indian cottage on the high street the other day and felt pretty rough the next day which was a shame

Just a heads up really.
I know a few posters like the Miller and Carter in Lancing. They are offering two courses for £15 throughout January Sun-Thurs. It is the 8oz Rump i think, which i normally have, and this menu is normally £13-95. No voucher needed.

Great special meal with good, old friends at GB1 at The Grand Hotel last night. GB1 is fish, seafood and more seafood, ranging from the modern (Lobster Burger, Scallop Sashimi) to the traditional (seafood platters, oysters with shallots, fish and chips). My friend went straight down the modern route, sashimi followed by playfully presented Lobster Burger. Both excellent apparently. I had a hot seafood platter, perfectly cooked and very, very fresh. How they found the samphire that went with it in winter I don't know, though it doesn't taste quite as good as summer samphire.

Service was excellent, informed, quick and discreet. The wine list is amazing, the only place I have seen a Gruner available in Brighton and Hove outside of Quaff.

Not cheap - not at all cheap - but excellent.

Seeing as you wonderful people all seem to be in the know, any recommendations for three people, under about £20 a head for the food? Needs to be in central Brighton or Hove.

Haven't been for a while but my personal recommendation would be Casa Don Carlos in The Lanes next the The Bath Arms. It's very good tapas and for £20 i think you should get to choose 3 - 4 dishes each. Good food and a friendly, tight packed atmosphere. Plus you might see Calde.

Sister in laws favourite but her husband said portions are very small so if you have a large appetite, which he does, dont expect to be filled up.

Think I will take your advice. It sounds very snobbish but my nephew who raved about it I would not class as a great authority. He will go for quantity rather than quality.
