Where to go in Brighton

[Frankieola]

I'm off to Brighton with the good lady for a weekend and was wondering if anyone could tell me THE places to go? All suggestions are welcome, Bars/restaurants/clubs, even little shops or other places that will suitably impress her and make her think I know what I'm doing!! Thanks in advance!

To show your appreciation of history and culture, take a tour of the Royal Pavilion:

For individual shops, head for North Laine:

For a great selection of 'ethnic' restaurants (many of which only open at night) try the area around Preston Street. (The Viceroy of India, on Preston Street, is one of the best Indian restaurants I've ever been to).

Norman's (apparently homophobic) response to your question points out that Brighton is popular with the gay community. As Norman would discover (if he only had the courage to try), some of the best bars and restaurants are often to be found in the (nominally) gay areas of British cities. In Brighton, that means heading for Kemp Town.

Do try the North Lane, it's not one of the lanes, but it's like going back in time to the early 70's. Organic food and it's great even if you just walk it.
