A Mule In Brighton
'Rob Silverstone is a man of many talents ... His second book ‘A Mule in Brighton’ is a transitional feast. The opening chapters take you on a snapshot armchair tour of the delights of Brighton and surrounding areas of the Downs. We are then shown a collection of sixty of his black and white photographs depicting places and scenes that were a part of the tour. Moving us on to the next part of the book Rob shares with us some of his favourite recipes from the restaurant. An enticing collection of flavours and the freshest of ingredients are combined to tempt even the most reluctant of cooks to try at least a few of these clearly explained recipes..... This really is a book with something for practically everyone.'
