Sussex pub chain scores Michelin hat-trick
8:00pm Monday 19th December 2011 in News By Ben Parsons
The Ginger Dog in Kemp Town
A chain of pub eateries scored a hat-trick with three entries in a prestigious guide.
The Gingerman group’s Sussex venues have been highlighted in the Michelin Eating Out In Pubs guide for 2012.
They were among 20 pubs in Sussex which got an entry in the guide.
The Ginger Pig in Hove Street, Hove, The Ginger Dog in College Place, Kemp Town, and The Ginger Fox in Albourne, near Henfield, all won praise from inspectors.
Food at The Ginger Pig was described as “precisely prepared, flavoursome British dishes”, while cooking at The Ginger Fox was “skilful, with a real country flavour”.
The Ginger Dog was noted for “a welcoming atmosphere and relaxed feel”.
Ben McKellar, who runs the Gingerman group with his wife Pamela, said: “We are very pleased to be so represented.
“The Michelin guide is obviously very highly regarded generally within the restaurant and pub food community.
“The Fox and the Pig have been in before but it is the first year that the Ginger Dog has been involved.”

I've only been to the Ginger Dog and would not go again because it was precisely the opposite to the description here.

Booked a table once at the Ginger Pig. I then needed to change the time and the person was so rude that in the end I just didn't turn up and went somewhere else instead - somewhere that actually wanted my custom.
