Head Chef – Two Rosette Mirabelle Restaurant, Eastbourne

Since the day it opened its doors in 1989, the Mirabelle Restaurant has garnered numerous awards, accolades and critical notices from the UK’s top food writers. As well as being considered one of the finest restaurants in Eastbourne, The Independent voted the Mirabelle in the top 50 best restaurants in the UK and it has held 2AA Rosettes, as well as entries in the Good Food Guide and Michelin Guide, every year since its opening 30 years ago.

The cuisine has traditionally been a Modern European style, with a menu that focuses on the use of locally sourced seasonal produce.

The Mirabelle, part of the Grand Hotel, runs as an independent 50-cover fine dining restaurant. The kitchen is separate to the main hotel kitchen with its own brigade of five chefs and waiting staff. A separate entrance to the street also gives the Mirabelle its own identity and attracts diners from across the South East as well as hotel guests. The restaurant is open for lunch and dinner and currently offers a weekly changing set menu plus à la carte and tasting menu and also hosts various special events throughout the year.
