Le Baobab Cuisine

Le Baobab Cuisine is a great little Senegalese spot on Trafalgar Street in Brighton where every dish feels like an ecstatic love letter from the head chef (and founder) addressed directly to your stomach. It’s homely, there’s a two-foot flamingo on the bar, and there’s a distinctive come-on-in attitude. But make no mistake, the mafe is one of the best ways to spend £13 in Brighton. Outside of knockout stews that will have you getting all misty-eyed over the humble peanut, the special plat du chef au poisson is a must-order for anyone who wants to inhale their weekly omega-3 intake and try the chef’s expert sea bass in the same sitting. Take note, it’s closed on Sundays.
