Padstow, Cornwall

Padstow is home to Rick Stein's famous Seafood Restaurant, since opening in 1975, The Seafood Restaurant has established an international reputation for imaginative cooking of the very freshest fish and shellfish. The restaurant is situated just across the quay from where the lobster boats and trawlers tie up and much of the fish comes, literally, straight off the boats and in the kitchen door. They now have a seafood bar right in the middle of the restaurant where you can watch chefs assembling platters of oysters, langoustines, sushi and sashimi. View the website....
