And Back - Eating Out In Bexhill

"My friend and I had a choice of seats in a
near empty restaurant. I usually expect a drinks order to
be taken quickly after being seated, but we waited a long time
before any kind of service. The Marabou is split into two eating
areas, and I got the impression that staff were busier next door
in the cafe style area. The food and pricing on the menu wasn't
the same as the sandwich board out the front, which had been the
"hook" that brought us in, although that may have been a
lunchtime special left out long after lunch.
When the drinks did come, the glass my orange
juice was in didn't smell too great and the drink wasn't
particularly cold, which would have been nice on a hot day, as
it was that day.
By this point, it was looking like a
disappointing experience. Then the food came. I had plumped for
Grilled Gammon, which was served with slices of pineapple, fried
egg, mushrooms and peas. My friend went with fried cod and
chips, served with a salad. The first thought upon seeing the
plates was "wow". These were very generous sized portions that
made a very full plate of food. The food looked good, and the
looks weren't deceiving. These were fantastic, hearty dinners
that tasted great.
Rarely for me, I cleared the plate of every
morsel. The main courses averaged about £10 each. We were
offered desert, but there was no actual desert menu which would
have been nice, so we cold properly consider them and actually
see the prices.
After a slow start, I left Little Marabou with
a very favourable impression. This had been all about the food,
and I'd definitely recommend that to anyone."
