Pinxto People

We really enjoyed our spot of lunch at Pinxto People in Brighton on Friday. A bit of a trek (it's almost Hove, really) but well worth it.

We ordered some manchego-like cheese, spicy pork, empanadillas (little pastry packages filled with tasty meat), some bread and oil and some squid. With a couple of hot drinks this came to about £25.

The spicy pork (a special on the day) was lovely - a bit like the chorizo in red wine that you find in Andalucia. The bread and oil was gorgeous - crusty bread with a delicious fruity fragrant oil. The cheese came served with a separate dish of toasted thin bread slices with fresh tomato saucy stuff that was scrummy (it tasted of summer to me - fresh and sweet and sunshin-y). Service was quick with dishes coming out nicely spaced to make sure we got to try it all when it was hot.

We thoroughly enjoyed it and if we lived closer I know we'd be there more often. Not sure if I'd go there of an evening, though.
