A SEASIDE town in the UK has won fans from top chefs, who have said it is a “weird small place” for some of the country’s best meals.

Deal, in Kent, is also often dubbed Hackney-on-Sea, partly because of its amazing food and drink scene.

Aaron Clark Potter, head chef and owner Wild Flowers restaurant raved about it as a weekend break destination for foodies.

Naming his favourite place, he said on the Go To Food podcast: “Updown Farmhouse, we went there last year and it was the best meal I had all year.

“Oli is one of the best cooks in the country. Real clever but simple food, cooked authentically.”

Updown Farmhouse restaurant was even named as one of the best restaurants in country, in last year’s National Restaurant Awards.

He recommended The Rose, a hotel and restaurant run by chef Nuno Mendes, which also owns the nearby The Blue Pelican.

He added: “In this weird small place, there is all this amazing food.”

The Pelican’s Head Chef backed this up, telling local media: “It’s certainly impressive for such a small town to now have so many good options.”

Local chef Chef Jakob Grant added: “I do think the Deal food scene is developing.

“I mean, it’s not Margate yet, which has a good few established restaurants and so much space to work in, but I think some aspects are slowly coming over.”

Other Deal highlights include The Frog & Scot, and the exclusive Dining Club where you have to become a member.

Elsewhere in Deal, the town’s famous pier is undergoing an £140million revamp.

Having first opened in 1838, parts of the lower deck are being rebuilt.

The pier itself remains open, with the popular cafe at the end being unaffected.

And history buffs should head to Deal Castle, built by Henry VII which is open to visitors.

Trains to Deal take around 1hr25 to London, arriving at London St Pancras station.

Elsehwere in Kent, another restaurant was named the best in the world by a famous chef.

Whitstable’s The Sportsman’s previous awards have included the Good Food Guide’s Best Restaurant in 2024.

Chef Max Rocha, who runs London’s Cafe Cecila, told Conde Nast Traveller: “This is my favourite restaurant in the world.

“It really is the best restaurant and ticks all the boxes.”

Kent even has a “golden triangle” of vineyards that beat some French wines – here’s how to explore it.

The Prince and Princess of Wales ‘tend to be going in a different direction’ to elder members of the Royal family, instead appearing in ‘less public engagements’ and doing more impactful work behind-the-scenes, claims a royal reporter.

News.com.au correspondent Bronte Coy says this could be thanks, not only to a generational shift in attitude, but also to the recent health scares the younger Royals have battled.

It’s been a tough twelve months of health concerns for the Royal family, during which Kate, 43, faced the ‘huge shock’ of her cancer diagnosis in March and Princess Anne, 74, was rushed to hospital after a head injury involving a horse in June.

On this week’s episode of The Sun’s Royal Exclusive, Royal reporters Cameron Walker and Bronte Coy spoke to Royal Editor Matt Wilkinson about the shift in mentality between the older and younger generations of the family – and how Catherine and William might be set to do things ‘their way’ when they ascend the throne.

Discussing a recent interview given by Princess Anne at the end of her two-day royal tour of South Africa this week, Matt recalled that the Princess Royal had said she was ‘very close to not being’ after her head injury earlier on in the year.

Despite this traumatic event, Anne insisted that plans to retire were ‘not an option’, prompting Matt to ask: “Should members of the Royal family have a retirement age like the rest of us?”

“Traditionally, they haven’t,” said Cameron, “Obviously, the late Queen went on till her last moments, Prince Phillip, Duke of Edinburgh – I think he was 96 when he retired in 2017, so he was incredibly old.

“Princess Anne really takes after her father and is, as we know, a very hard working member of the Royal family.

“She’s consistently at the top of the number of Royal engagements each year.”

The Royal experts discussed how this is a common theme among the elder generations of the Royals, who have all been well-known for their frequent public engagements, despite their older ages and battles with ill health.

Bronte recalled how the late Queen, who was very well-known for her strong work ethic, managed to ‘maintain light duties’ while suffering from Covid symptoms in 2021.

“I thought, my goodness, can she have a break? She’s in her nineties, please, she’s got Covid,” Bronte said in disbelief.

Putting this hard-working mentality down to the way the elder Royals were all ‘taught about the role from a very young age’, Bronte says the concept of appearing in public to fulfil Royal duties had been ‘instilled in them’ from their early years.

She speculates whether this mentality might change among the younger generations of the family, William and Catherine, when they take the throne.

Saying their recent health scare might make them realise there ‘is a point where you can step back’, Bronte admits a crucial contributing detail to this is it ‘probably depends on how many other royals there are’ to ‘pick up the slack’

Matt queried whether we might demand too much of the Royal family, recalling that King Charles continued to work throughout recent illness.

However Cameron says this was likely a ‘generational thing’ and that Queen Camilla says she struggles to get the King to ‘slow down’.

In comparison, he believes William and Catherine will approach their royal duties ‘their way’, and says it’s still early days, so we will need to wait to see how this impacts their work.

The Royal experts seemed to agree that the late Queen’s opinion that ‘the Royal family need to be seen to be believed’ is less agreed upon by younger members of the family.

Cameron says he thinks there is a balance that ‘needs to be struck’ as we move into the rule of the newer generation and adapt to their approach to public appearances.

One sentiment that seems to apply to many members of the family was revealed by Princess Anne during her South African interview, where she said: “You are sharply reminded that every day is a bonus.”

Bronte said: “There’s been a lot of that from the Royals after the past year – they’ve all sort of reached that point, and yeah, it’s a good mentality to have at the end of it.”

OLIVIA Attwood has taken a fresh dig at Love Island stars ‘copying’ her just weeks after her savage swipe at a rival.

The TV presenter 33, teased fans with a cryptic post recently, claiming she had a secret that would “blow your f***ing mind.”

She also accused someone of copying her, with sources close to the star claiming she was talking about Laura Anderson.

Now, chatting ahead of the very exciting launch of her new TV series, Getting Filthy Rich, the star cheekily said she “thinks she’s inspired a few of them,” when asked about her fellow Love Island stars.

Olivia added to The Sun: “I don’t know, I hope so. Who knows?”

Olivia took to her social media stories to take a dig at someone unknown last year, but didn’t specify who she was talking about.

She wrote: “You can try to hire all the same people, regurgitate my stories as your own, study the playbook, follow the recipe blah blah blah, but it will NEVER taste the same. That’s all.”

Discussing her TV opportunities, Olivia went on: “No one is more surprised than me.

“I am really grateful and working hard and taking every opportunity I get to do a good job.”

Olivia is host of Bad Boyfriends and Getting Filthy Rich, and also appears as a regular Loose Women panellist.

She went on: “Hosting Bad Boyfriends was like the first time hosting a format like that and you know, we’re obviously coming back for a second series with that and I feel very comfortable in that space also.

“So I’d love to do more hosting alongside the documentaries because I think the two things can coexist quite nicely.”

It comes as Olivia gets set to delve even deeper into the adult industry for her balsy third series of Getting Filthy Rich.

She’s going to immerse herself in the world of financial domination, adult cosplay, the boyfriend experience and meets the OnlyFans top one percent earning up to $150,000 a month.

Love Island star-turned-presenter Olivia has been left gobsmacked by some of the things she’s seen during filming in the past – including a gigantic penis replica.

And Olivia, who says she’s “pretty boring” in her own sex life, tells The Sun that husband Bradley thinks she’s “insane” for doing the show.

She said: “He thinks I’m crazy. I’ll ring him when I’m filming and be like ‘oh my God, you’ll never guess what I said today.’

“He genuinely thinks I’m on the wind up, and as soon as I get clips and edits from the rushes I’m like ‘I told you I saw this.’

“And he’s like ‘what?’ because he actually doesn’t normally believe me until he actually sees it, and when I say it out loud, some of the things sound insane.”

Olivia continued: “He’ll say to me ‘how are you just sitting there? I couldn’t watch that in person.’

“And that’s why I tell him that it’s my show and not his.”
