Pintxo People
Pintxo People (pronounced 'pincho') brings a brilliant slice of metropolitan dining to Brighton. Downstairs is a rustic bar selling the Basque bite-size tapas after which we named. Upstairs is a glossy dining room of red banquettes, slate-grey walls and a Catalan sensibility. The typically British formality of starters and mains is replaced with the more sociable tapas; everyone tucks in. Prime ingredients, AA rosette-winning cooking and an experimental itch make for a very happy marriage. Try the acorn-fed Iberico ham, ox sirloin or chick pea stew to taste what we mean. Puddings provide a spectacular ending.
