Côte Brasserie, Brighton
I wrote about Côte’s great deals a month or so ago but its all change again with new offers.
Their ‘The Not So Set Menu’ caught my eye as its available Monday to Friday from 12 noon until close so you aren’t stuck with lunch or afternoon dining. Two courses are £23 with three for £27.
Starters included onion soup, potted crab and beetroot salad. There is a choice of five mains including seafood linguine, gnocchi, minute steak with fries, Camembert and mushroom baguette and roast chicken salad. If you’ve still room then desserts include chocolate praline tart, pistachio crème brûlée or ice cream.
Also keep an eye out for their free-flow fries offer; if you purchase a side of fries then they’ll keep coming until you’re defeated.

Tonkotsu, Brighton
There’s nothing more warming on a winters day than a bowl of steaming ramen so if you’re looking for a cheap but filling lunch then look no further than Tonkotsu on New Road.
Ramen is a Japanese noodle soup dish of wheat noodles in a flavoursome broth, topped with various ingredients like chicken pork, seaweed and a boiled egg. Very much part of the Japanese kitchen, it can be found everywhere from cheap and cheerful street food through to elevated fine dining.
Tonkorsu’s week day offer runs from noon until 5pm with a choice of eight small Ramen bowls and one side dish for just £10. For me that’s more than enough for lunch but you can upgrade to a larger bowl for an additional £4.50.

Zizzi, Brighton - www.zizzi.co.uk/lunch-menu
One of the UK’s most loved national chains, Zizzi has weathered the hospitality storm over the past 25 years and remains a high street staple that ticks the boxes for all ages with its Italian-inspired menu.
Their lunch set menu is available from Monday to Friday from noon until 5pm; at £14.95 for two courses or £19.95 for three it most certainly won’t blow your budget. Alongside the expected pizza, pasta and garlic bread, there’s plenty of other choices on this promo menu including a prawn skewer, calamari, Pollo Milanese and salads.
