Three Special Food Experiences with Bed

You have won the lottery, you have a very special occasion to celebrate and you deserve a special treat, or perhaps you want to blow your bonus..… and, Cornwall beckons…you wish for the simple things in life. To eat, drink, be merry… and to roll into a sumptuous bed.

Then these three are your Starter For 10.

You may have heard of Mr Stein of Padstow. He has as many bedrooms dotted about his village as he has food emporia. He hasn’t quite got the monopoly but it’s a close run thing. He’s got there through sheer hard work and professionalism, and Cornwall is spoilt for choice now that his many acolytes are running their own shows. You could start with the Seafood Restaurant, the original on the harbour front in Padstow. http://www.rickstein.com/

You have Nathan Outlaw now at The Enodoc Hotel, Rock http://www.nathan-outlaw.com/ another seafood experience to tick off your list, or for stunning views and mouth-watering fare try the old coastguard Hotel, Mousehole set up in a perfect location overlooking my favourite Cornish harbour. http://www.oldcoastguardhotel.co.uk/

These three may well empty your wallet, but if you can still have many splendid “foodie” experiences without splashing out so much. Soon, I’ll bring you news of food and bed at a lower price, but as much fun, too, and also ideas about catching your own fish and cooking it on the beach. http://www.barefootkitchen.com When all is said and done, my favourite meal is freshly baked bread and butter with marmite, and cold, cold water (or beer) …Bon Appetit!
