citylikeyou — Viaduct — Brighton by Martin Seeds

The Viaduct is one of those big pieces of architecture that you notice from afar and ignore close up. So get close for a major neck craning and you’ll get that “how the hell did they ever build this…” feeling. When I look up I get vertigo and I doubt the strength of those spindly looking redbrick supports. Preston Road and Beaconsfield Road are good places to look around, and afterwards you can pop into the nearby Signalman pub.

Brighton / Restaurant

This is Marrocos Restaurant on the seafront towards Hove. It's a well kept secret by most Brightonian's. We dont like to share it as its small and precious. Besides great Pizza and Pasta and also incredible Seafood they make the very best Ice Cream in Brighton. I take my kids after school as the queues are crazy at the weekends. Try the Rum and Raisin....... or the Hazelnut.

Brighton / Restaurant

Really great restaurant, which started out in Dec 2016, with a mission to serve authentic Caribbean food and cocktails. The jerk chicken is really good, but I really like the Trini Curry Roti (pictured) and Goat Curry (when available). You've also got to try the homemade hot sauce, which I slap it on everything.

Brighton / Pub

I always feel I'm in a bar in European city when I come here, its cavernous but comforting at the same time. The pub is located right by London Road Station and is one of the few places I've found in Brighton that serves Murphys Irish stout and great cheesy chips.

Brighton / Beach

Often I see people sitting on the beach alone, staring at the horizon in silence. Its expanse has a calming affect. It’s a place where life becomes simplified into clouds, waves, the odd seagull and sailboat.

Brighton / Area

Here I am in the South Downs. This spot is around 5 minutes drive from the centre of Brighton. You can see for miles.
