Advantages: Chocolate brownies

Disadvantages: small portions, repetitive

I visited Brighton a few weeks ago and was really keen to got to Momma Cherri's. We booked in for my boyfriend's birthday - they said they would decorate the table for him.

When we arrived there was a laminated piece of paper saying 'happy birthday' and a limp balloon on the table. I almost wish they hadn't bothered!

We ordered the soul in a bowl and were thoroughly unimpressed. The portions were tiny and the meat really greasy. They say that you get a selection of dishes from the menu so you get to try a bit of everything. I think it was about £13 each and we shared 4 bowls for starters and 4 for mains. However, the bowls were more like ramekins and one of the dishes was coleslaw! Also, we had chicken wings for starter and drumsticks for main, so not much variation.

Some of the dishes were nice - there was a lovely spicy butternut squash and the chocolate brownies were gorgeous.

But definitely not worth the money. There are some beautiful places to eat in Brighton, find one of those instead!

Summary: I wouldn't go back
