FOOD ............................. The Flint House An old faithful in a new street In keeping with all the Gingerman restaurants, the food at their latest – The Flint House – is both delicious and inventive. But what’s most novel, at least for now, is their address. They are one of the first occupants of the newly-developed Hanningtons Lane – a smart little snicket that has appeared behind the once-great department store at the bottom of North Street. If you haven’t seen it yet (and you could easily miss it), it’s quite a thing: around a dozen new shops and eateries, with fancy apartments above, arranged along a smart little lane. It’s strangely exhilarating, if slightly bewildering, to walk through a narrow gap in North Street and find yourself in a new part of town. When we visit on a Friday lunchtime, The Flint House is already drawing a crowd. Upstairs the bar serves classy-looking cocktails, wines by the glass and Sussex fizz, with the Ridgeview Terrace offering the perfect vantage point to watch people in that slightly bewildered state below. Only bar snacks are served up here, so we head back downstairs for the full menu. There are long counters to eat at – both overlooking the kitchen and in the window – and marbletopped tables by the door. There are no reservations, so I recommend you get there early to pick your favourite spot. We order from the varied menu of small plates. The slow roast lamb belly (£9.50) is tightly rolled, thinly sliced and clearly cooked by someone who knows what they’re doing. The caramelised meat falls apart under the fork, and is perfectly partnered by ‘green sauce’: a piquant blend of mint, capers, cornichons, mustard and parsley. Vegetables are always a highpoint at Gingerman restaurants, and the Flint House is true to form. The confit potato (£4) is soft on the inside, crispy golden on the outside and served with a silky and subtle aioli; the salt baked beetroot with Jerusalem artichoke and puy lentils (£7) is as earthy as it sounds, lifted with a ‘green goddess’ sauce; but, for me, the roast cauliflower (£8.50) tops the lot. Roasted to nutty perfection and sitting on a bed of creamy miso sauce. The dish is full of deep umami flavours, laced with astringent apple and pomegranate. We order poached apricots with fig leaf ice cream (£8) to follow. I prefer my apricots a little softer, but the crumbled honeycomb lends sweetness and the fig leaf ice cream adds good intrigue, being more scented than flavoured. A sophisticated end to a sophisticated lunch. I wonder how long it will be until this new lane feels like part of the landscape. Having one of the city’s most established restaurant groups in residence will surely help with the process. Come for lunch, stay for a drink, and watch the people pass by while you – and they – try to figure out how they’ve fitted it all in.
