Food, Glorious Food!

Ok so I do realise that I come across as being a little obsessed with food. This is because I am. So I have decided to write a short blog post about food just so I can get it out of my system and display some lovely pictures I took. You see, recently I have become a little fanatical about taking pictures of food, especially if it's well presented. I'm not really sure how it all started but I fear that it is spiraling into a quirky obsession.

So without any further ado, may I present (drum roll please):

The food of Eastbourne!!

Malteser Madness Sundae ( I did share it!)

Relaxing with a cup of gunpowder vanilla tea

So the girls in the cast got together for a lovely dinner at a local Italian restaurant. They had 3 course set menu for about £12 and wow…what value for money! We had no idea that the food would be so beautifully presented and delicious. And the portion sizes were uncharacteristically large for a ‘set menu’ meal. I guess that’s what happens when you get out of London…

Of course I wouldn’t have been able to live with myself if I hadn’t of had a classic fish and chips at least ONCE when I was by the seaside. So I went to the famous Harry Ramsden’s, which claims to serve the best fish and chips IN THE WORLD. Hmmmm not so sure about that but it was pretty good for £7! Definitely not everyday dining though…

The other night the lads of the cast had a lovely, sophisticated dinner party at their place and Alyssa made a delicious creamy tomato chicken and pasta dish. Ah, how spoilt we are!

Eastbourne Food Rating: 8/10. For a small town there was quite a lot of choice when it came to dining out and I was particularly impressed with The Plantation, a cafe that specialised in loose leaf tea (a pot was only £1.90). Also, I know that I keep mentioning the sundaes but the choice was unbelievable and is definitely a contributing factor to this high score. They will indeed be sorely missed! (But my waist line will be thankful).

Next stop...Woking.
