Who is Cooking

Maeve can be found in Peacehaven on the promenade opposite Bastion Steps. Along the beautiful cliff tops overlooking the Channel and all the beauty that comes with it.

A mobile cake and tea horse trailer serving the best iced coffee in Brighton. Along with a range of home baked treats you are not going to find at the local convenience store.

Pistachio and mascarpone croissant

Kerry has created bespoke cakes & treats from home kitchen for many years & took the plunge to hit the road when she met ‘Maeve’ the beautiful horsebox trailer.

pistachio and white chocolate cookies stuffed croissants (insert proper posh name here……), vegan & yet again, delicious!

They attend events, shows & weddings all over the south of England with their homemade bakes, treats & a good cuppa!

A well cooked, as opposed to a well done steak is difficult to find.

And the last place I would expect to find it, is an Italian restaurant.
But this is what you get at Piccolino’s in South

Say no more.

One of those special places that are only known to a few.

The Eternal Baker is not a tearoom you are going to find easily. That is unless you have heard about it and are looking. A comfortably quaint tea room and coffee shop on site at the Eternal Maker.

They offer a light menu panini’s, bagels, toasted tea cakes and chunky toast. As well as a selection of cakes, loaf cakes and tray bakes.

It just tastes better grilled on the coals. The best Caribbean jerk chicken in Portsmouth and the English South Coast.

 

Small Island Catering are tucked away on Fawcett Rd Portsmouth specialising in traditionally authentic Caribbean comfort food.

 

The food is outstanding. In particular the saltfish fritters and the jerk chicken. Goat curry, pepper beef stew and  sweet potato mash capturing the taste and vibrancy of the Caribbean.

It was a toss-up between the Sunday Roast and the Chicken and Ham Pie which wafted pass on it’s way to the table behind me. But it was the Roast Lamb and mint sauce I finally ordered.

 

Nearly missed it.

Down the hill from the car park at Harting Downs, just after the turnoff to North Marden. A small sign which is not easy to see, points to a very narrow country road that drops off the edge, down into the valley and the Royal Oak in Hookways.

 

A small country pub, set right next to the South Downs Way. Perfect for sitting out in the garden on a beautiful summers day for a spot of lunch, or for huddling next to the log fire for a roast dinner on a crisp winters evening.
