On route to work

Little Ox in New Street Brighton is slowly becoming one of my regulars.

Having to queue up for a table at breakfast is a sure indication that these guys know what they are doing. Although there is usually a wait, there is never a feeling of neglect, even a complimentary fresh OJ while waiting for a table is as far as they go to ensure your palate is adorned by their great brekky combos.

Having tried 6 options on the breakfast menu, I am finding it a tough fight between the avocado on taste with a side of smoked salmon (sounds basic but the feta in the avo mash, the black sesame seeds and the bright green herb oil take this to another level) or the corn fritters, avo mash and perfectly poached egg...or is it the salmon and beetroot relish? or the feta, pea and polenta with salmon and poached eggs? too many options, not enough time to go out for breakfast.

If you however don't have the time to wait, mid-week lunch hits the spot perfectly. Having tried two of their daily soup specials I find it hard to go past them.

It is not just the amazing food and the fresh juice which brings me to Little Ox, the fact that my 'favourite-artist-of-the-moment' David Bromley has a piece of his artwork hanging on the wall does help.

Everything about this place screams STYLISH, even the quirky wait staff. If that isn't enough, they also have a catering company, TOMMY COLLINS. I look forward to the next time I throw a party. Yum
