This Christmas, celebrate the season at one of Brighton’s top-rated restaurants, Terre à Terre, where a flavour-filled menu of festive treats awaits. With The Festive Set and a Sharing Party Menu to choose from, Terre à Terre is celebrating the season with its characteristic warmth and creativity.
The Festive Set
Priced at £45 per person and available from Thursday 27 November, this three-course extravaganza takes guests on a flavour filled journey celebrating the season. With a choice of three dishes for each course, the first decision is which tantalising starter is going to kick things off. Indulge in a beloved classic with the Jaipur Jonny Brinjal – a hot and crispy coconut maize chaat-spiced fritter served with Bengal butter-baked aubergine – wrap chilly hands around a steaming bowl of Sleigh Soup & Turnover – rich cauliflower cheese soup paired with a hot cumin Gouda pastry turnover – or opt for Little Crackers – Toppogi Korean rice cake crispy sticks with almond gochujang satay, fresh pickled cranberry lotus root and sesame smashed cucumber.

Satisfyingly appetized by starters, look ahead to a delectable main course that will be sure to invoke the Christmas spirit. Terre à Terre puts its signature herbivorous twist on a German classic with its rendition of Himmel Und Erde – a torta lenticchia cake topped with pippin cider butter baste and slow cooked Stamppot choux and root. Or for a dish that is both flavourful and Sussex to the core, opt for the Snowflake Soufflé, a ricotta soufflé pillow topped with winter savoury sunflower seed pesto and crumbly Sussex Charmer cheese, served with Queen Bean Chestnut and Legume Caponata – the perfect dish for cheese lovers. Last but not least is the rich and warming Port Pie & Crimbo Crack Cube, comprising of a hot sticky savoury mushroom ruby port pie and porcini crack pastry, served with a sizzling cube of all the trimmings. Winter warmers prepared and served with Terre à Terre’s signature twinkle.
It wouldn’t truly be the season of indulgence without allowing for a spot of dessert, and The Festive Set has got guests covered with three tasty puddings. Dive into a seasonal classic dessert, Figgy Puddin’, served with XO sherry and vanilla cinnamon Chantilly cream and a damson plumplump; or try the chocolatey sensation that is the Cocoa Coup, a chocolate Marsala and hazelnut trifle mousse, finished with mandarin ice and candy. Or finish things off with the Hot Shot, combining a double espresso with salted caramel ice cream and a shot of walnut liqueur, sure to leave a warm and fuzzy feeling in all those who indulge in it.

Sharing Party Menu
Those looking for more of the sharing spirit will delight in the Sharing Party Menu, priced at £42 per person and including a delicious range of Terre à Terre’s best-loved dishes in tapas form, along with a sizzling side of Hot Salty Frits. Enjoy menu icons such as Better Batter – soft buttermilk-soaked halloumi dipped in chip shop batter – alongside flavour sensations including the Butterbean Brandade & Smoked Tomato Harissa – butterbean Brandade topped with smoked tomato ancho and caraway harissa with Lavash crispbreads – before rounding off the meal with The Cocoa Collective, which brings together a selection of delightful sweet treats to celebrate the season in the right way.

The distinctive flavours of Sussex extend beyond the plate, being fully represented in Terre à Terre’s thoughtfully crafted drinks list that brings together organic, biodynamic and Sussex-made wines. The expertly curated wine list features wines chosen to complement the flavours of each dish. Alongside, a unique selection of cocktails and delicious grown-up mocktails is on offer to lift spirits, bringing distinctive and refreshing flavours to the table.
