FOOD<br />

Edible updates<br />

Eating out<br />

As someone who prefers lounging comfortably to<br />

leaping about, I’m stretching the theme of ‘sport’ to<br />

mean outdoor activity. We have unpredictable summer<br />

weather, but that adds a thrill of danger to plans<br />

for a Glyndebourne picnic, a walk under the Downs<br />

near Firle to the magical Beanstalk Café, collecting a tray from the Grange Gardens tea hatch, or<br />

sitting outside in the garden of Anne of Cleves House (where their café now has a loyalty card).<br />

For picnic fare, the Friday Food Market stalls offer all kinds of bits and pieces, from bread, pitta, meats<br />

and cheeses, to mini-pies, tarts and dumplings. A Meze Box at Kabak includes mejadra Arabic rice,<br />

three excellent salads, humous and harissa. This Little Piggy is new, selling sausage rolls that are a lot<br />

more exciting than the limp effort you get in supermarkets. Five mini-rolls for £3.50. I chose: American<br />

Breakfast, Smokey Joe, Peking Pork, Spanish Senorita and Green Chilli. Delicious. They also make<br />

large, veggie ones.<br />

I’m a fan of Caccia & Tails on Station Street for items to pep up your picnic – focaccia, obviously,<br />

but also cocktails. The bobbly glass Campari and soda bottle is a personal favourite.<br />

In local food news, Aqua under the Premier Inn has shut, whilst Fuego Lounge seems to be thriving.<br />

The third restaurant space in that row has never even been occupied. Seems a shame that such a<br />

central, prime location is only patchily successful. @<strong>Lewes</strong>Nibbler<br />
