I moved down to Sussex over 25 years ago from South London. My family viewed living by the sea as a dream goal. I still remember the day when we packed up and cavalcaded down to Worthing, a charming seaside town in West Sussex.
After the amazing experience of winning MasterChef, we opened our first restaurant Pitch in 2019 serving beautiful British inspired food from both the sea and the land. There has been a significant boom of food and café culture all around Sussex, and many areas such as Brighton and Worthing have flourished into destinations for those in search of culinary delights. Our second restaurant Bayside Social has capitalised on this foodie reputation. It’s a beachside restaurant focusing on fresh small plates mainly inspired by the coast.
You really are spoilt for choice but here are a few places in and around Brighton that keep me coming back.
Bincho Yakitori, Brighton
Brighton’s worst kept secret, this Japanese style yakitori bar is as authentic as you’re going to get outside of Tokyo.
