Kent is a county with two names. The Garden of England is the one it earnt hundreds of years ago. It was down to its rolling hills, fertile pastures, teeming waters, wild-flowering woods, chalk grasslands, and ancient orchards. And the prolific growing culture it is known for is still carried in the skills of today’s organic producers, higher-welfare farmers and specialist cultivators.

This abundance of bright British flavours is celebrated at Pearly Cow, Margate, to the views of the North Sea stretching out to the horizon.

The open kitchen's grill caramelises cuts and catches of the day, and the ice counter promises the richness of rawness. Vibrancy and freshness are everything here.
