One of our ambitions at Browns Hotel & 22 Mill Street is to create quality, innovating food but also to demonstrate a real interest in nutrition, health and well being. We believe the fine dining industry has a very real challenge in addressing nutritional balance and as such it is part of our wider strategy and vision to focus on nutritional values.  

How do you cook without sugar with no affect on sweetness or flavour? How do you prepare exiting dishes that are not only balanced but are prepared to retain maximum nutrition content?  The answers are what we term as ’3 dimensional cuisine’ which is based on presentation, flavour and nutrition, which is the key to our dishes.
