Thank you to Jean Clark for sharing the following:

The Green Almond is rightly one of the most exciting restaurants in Eastbourne. Their vegetarian and vegan dishes are simply scrumptious and hosts Carmen and Andrew ensure that the menu is fresh, seasonal and changes every day. Booking recommended as it's very popular.

Photo shows artist David Armitage presenting his painting of aubergines to Andrew and Camilla (centre) in recognition of the Green Almond's generous contribution of vegetarian nibbles to guests at the opening of his art exhibition A Decade of Colour at the Birley Centre in 2016.
