Cornwall food and DRINK SPECIAL
JUST A FEW HIGHLIGHTS OF THE MANY INSPIRATIONAL FOOD AND DRINK BUSINESSES IN CORNWALL
W
hen you think of Cornish food what do you think of? If you thought pasties you are in good company, as according to a recent survey by Cornwall Food & Drink, 1 in 7 people said the
same, while 1 in 11 mentioned clotted cream. But Britain’s most westerly county has much more going for it when it comes to food and drink. From Paul Ainsworth’s Michelin-starred Number 6 restaurant in Padstow (not forget- ting Rick Stein’s empire), right through to the lobster hatchery, fi shermen and farmers, there is something for everyone, with new innovations popping up all the time. The most recent new
idea we’ve heard about is Kernow Escargots – a snail farm that has already received interest from French stockists! Commenting on the array of fi ne food and drink bred in her home county, Ruth Huxley from Cornwall Food & Drink said: “We have seen the quality and variety of Cornish food and drink improve enormously in recent years and our research confi rmed this. Cornwall is an inspirational place where entrepreneurial spirit fl ourishes; couple that with the remarkable quality of the raw ingredients from land and sea, and it’s easy to see how the county has become the UK’s No 1 food spot.” Let’s take a look at a few Cornish food and drink highlights:
THE CORNISH FISHMONGER
Rob Wing and his team at ‘The Cornish Fishmonger’ have been selling quality fresh Cornish fi sh direct from the quayside for over 30 years. Supplying some of the nations’ most celebrated hotels and restau- rants, Rob is the go-to source of advice for all things fi sh – as well as being an expert on seasonal eating and sustainability. The same expertly, sustainably caught seafood can also be ordered online and delivered direct to households across the UK within 24 hours of being landed – you can’t get fresher than that! With over 30 different species to choose from, your seafood will be delivered ready-fi lleted, whole, por-
tioned – however you like it. As fi sh is an important, essential part of a healthy diet, why not sign up to a regular fi sh box scheme? Place an order and receive the best seasonal seafood every month – all fully pre- pared, labeled and packaged ready to cook or freeze. To further Rob’s commitment to sustainable fi shing
practices, The Cornish Fishmonger is a sponsor of the National Lobster Hatchery in Padstow; donating 50p for every lobster bought online, helping to conserve the lobster population and preserve the coastal ma- rine bio-diversity of Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly. If you have never ordered seafood online before, its quick, easy and often much cheaper than your supermarket, and fresher too!
