Fatto a Mano turns 10, World Lobster Day lands, Negroni Week kicks off – plus plenty of new bites in the RB Diary. Dive in!
Hello, friends!
If I’m feeling a bit gloomy, a few deep breaths on the seafront sorts me out pretty quickly. And if the sky happens to be blue and there’s an invigorating breeze – well – it’s like I’ve been plumped up, shaken off and put back in the right place. #HappyHack |
Yesterday morning started just right – coffee in the sunshine with Torsten at Kemptown’s bijou, new Temple at Black Rock. The spaciousness, the light, the overwhelming gratitude – the trick is to hold on to that feeling all day. Recently, writer Jessica found her moment of peace “walking over the Shoreham Bridge, the river sparkling beneath us… like the prologue to a date-night story.” |
True to form, Fatto a Mano’s mind-blowingly big 10th birthday celebration includes mouth-watering specials: the Ti Amo Napoli pizzaiolo and a peachy Vesuvius Spritz. Plus, for the next six weeks, every guest gets a FATTO LOTTO scratchcard and the chance to win one of 40,000 prizes to redeem on your next visit – including 10 trips to Napoli! Find out more. |
World Lobster Day is on 25 Sep! Start at Oeuf with a limited-edition Lobster Sub Roll with lobster fritto misto and lemony celeriac rémoulade, topped with a classic Béarnaise. To celebrate, Pearly Cow will add half a lobster to any steak for £25, or try “bring a mate, get a plate” at Burger & Lobster (buy one lobster main, get a second lobster main FREE). |
