Gravetye Manor is a bona fide example of that usually most faux of things: field-to-fork food

The majority of food these days has more air miles than Naomi Campbell. Not only in the Peruvian-jet-setting-strawberry sense, either, though schlepping a bit of fruit from the other side of the planet is never a terribly good thing. But it travels conceptually, too. Quite often, the dishes seems to have been conceived and, indeed, put together somewhere in international waters. A burger in New York may have aspirations to peerless brilliance, but in all likelihood it won't be a great deal different from the aspirant burgers of Greater Manchester. Same goes for sushi, same goes for your kale salads, same goes for your ceviche. Quite a lot of food now has no sense of place whatsoever.
