Little Farthingloe Farm

You're driving out past the eastern edge of Dover towards Folkestone when you spot Little Farthingloe Farm—a proper working farm that's decided to do something clever with what it grows. The restaurant sits right on the property, so you're eating vegetables that were probably in the ground that morning, meat from animals you can practically see from your table, and produce that changes with what's actually in season rather than what some supplier's got in stock. It's the kind of place where the chef knows exactly where everything comes from because they've probably walked the fields themselves. The cooking is unfussy but skilled—they're not trying to be London here, which is precisely why it works.
