DAYSOUT Dinner at The Sussex Ox The Sussex Ox is a pub with its own organic farm, and that’s where the majority of the meat, vegetables, and fruit that are served on its gorgeous menu come from. The pub itself also serves some fine local ales, and has the most breathtaking views over the Sussex countryside. As for the food, everything is cooked to order, and is as fresh as fresh can be. Dishes include gin-cured smoked salmon, The Ox beef burger, and wild mushroom and truffle risotto. The Sussex Ox, Milton Street, East Sussex www.thesussexox.co.uk Lunch at The Old Greenhouse The Old Greenhouse is a beautiful restaurant in a stunning B&B in a pretty little village. But it’s more than that; this restaurant only opens to pre-booked tables, and is an intimate affair, with room for just 16 lucky guests at a time. The menus are designed just for you in advance, and it’s more like having a private chef than dining in a restaurant. The food is all prepared freshly, and the products are locally sourced wherever possible. This is a very different, yet unforgettable way to enjoy a great lunch in the most comfortable of surroundings, and all for a set price that may just surprise you. The Old Greenhouse, 82 Fishbour
