I moved to Brighton a couple of years ago and quickly fell head-over-heals in love with the place. It punches well above its weight in so many areas, one of which is its incredible dining options.
With less than two months to go until moving to Australia we are keen to try as many brilliant Brighton restaurants as possible before we leave. Babysitters are organised and I've put together a list of my current favourites below in the hope that any of you who know Brighton will tell me where else we must try!
I'm no food blogger so am keeping the details light but absolutely recommend following local Brighton food blogger Foodie Eshé who has never let me down!!!
Cin Cin (Vine Street)
Cin Cin is a sensational Italian restaurant and my number one favourite Brighton restaurant. With only twenty or so covers it makes wonderful use of a tiny space and in my opinion you'd be hard pressed to find better Italian food anywhere! They also do lovely cocktails and wines. I think of it as a special occasion place but it isn't stuffy in the slightest and I feel just as comfortable turning up in jeans or dressing up a bit.
