Gylndebourne

[AzzaBHA]

Hey just wondering if anyone has been this year? and wanted to know if people have tried the food there?

 

[Paskman]

Take your own, that is the fun of it, oh plus the brilliant music!

 

[KingstonSeagull]

My misses works there the food is decent but we always take a picnic when we go...

 

[The Merry Prankster]

Always eat in Middle whateveritscalled. Avoids weather hassles. Food by Prue Leith. Last couple of times the chef in the kitchen was Albert Roux so pretty decent.

 

[Mr Banana]

The Trevor Arms is an option if you're going but don't want to eat there. You can book in advance and there's loads of time to drive there and back and eat during the interval. If you're going to Hippolyte et Aricie it's well good. Properly bonkers.

Take your own picnic and don't think the dress code is optional, I've seen a lot of very self conscious men walking around in lounge suits in previous years. Enjoy though, it's fun!

I turned up once on my bike, wearing scruffy t-shirt and shorts, with the DJ and strides in the pannier. The look I got from the gate attendant was priceless. I think he had visions of my wandering around the picnic lawns looking like Rab C Nesbitt.

Sung there when I was 11.

 

[LewesTom]

Dude! So did I! Show me another football club forum discussing a night at the world class opera. Got a couple of £15 tickets to Falstaff last week, was really good, very funny...bit of a weird ending though.

 

[TrickyOne]

I've worked in the kitchens up there on and off for years. Mr Roux is not the bloody chef as mention earlier!! Leith's do hold the contract, thus central purchasing is used which limits to a degree the level of quality. The staff are all fairly hardcore doing 14-16 hours a day throughout the season. All ther restaurants have to serve all in 80 mins. Great buzz, fairly good food. Have fun.

 

[Brightonia]

Gylndebourne? Is that like Glyndebourne

only messing before any kicks off ha ha!

I used to go there a lot when my dad was playing in the orchestra. I loved eating in the restaurant where the cast and crew ate, they were in costume and it was quite creepy.
