Dilsk

I have been extremely lucky recently to try some new restaurant in Brighton and @dilsk.brighton was definitely one of them, and an amazing one at that!

Located in @drakesofbrighton hotel, @cheftomstephens and @madgedodd who have worked in Michelin star restaurants and more recently 64 Degrees in Brighton, have together ventured to create this beautiful fine dine food & wine experience that we thoroughly enjoyed!

There is a full tasting 9 course menu (£95) or a smaller 5 course tasting menu (£55) with some of the main dishes, both offering a carefully selected wine flight option. I think this is a great idea so it gives customers the flexibility of how much they want to eat and spend too

The dishes were outstanding, starting with snacks, moving to the fish courses, meat courses and finally dessert and we really enjoyed the flow of the food offering (Vegetarian and Pescatarian menus are available upon request).

The Isle of Gigha Halibut and the Fox Acre Chicken were probably the dishes I remember the most but I really did enjoy them all. There was clearly careful consideration and craftsmanship which went into every dish and all of them were presented beautifully

We opted for the cocktails on this occasion which were really good, especially the Paloma. Only request I would have is to add some non-alcoholic cocktails to the menu for those who are not drinking, but all the drinks we had were really lovely

This restaurant would be perfect for a special occasion if you enjoy fine dining. We have a selection of great options for high quality set menu restaurants, and this is definitely one of them. It has only been open a couple of weeks now but already it’s reputation is soaring. Wishing these guys the best of luck with their new venture and thank you for the invite (especially as I couldn’t make the hospitality event which looked like so much fun!)

I was invited to try this one. As always, all opinions are my own.
