The price isn't bad either. 2 starters, 2 mains and 1 dessert came to £98.00. So, if you ever find yourself in Cornwall, consider giving this place a try, you won't be disappointed.

I can assure you at 98 quid I would be   ;)

£98 is one of the cheapest meals we've eaten   ;)

Only 6 miles (that's around the corner in Cornish terms      :) )from where we used to live, never tried the restaurant, but have been to the deli and fish and chip shop many times, excellent fare, but, we did know of a better fish and chip shop in St Columb Major (only 5 miles away   ;) ), not sure if it will still be there though.

I also think a lot of these places owned by Chefs hardly every see the owner.  He generally puts his name over the door and seldom comes to the place again.

A bit like McDonald's eh ?  ;)

I always thought the best chips were from Tart's in Nanpean.

We have eaten in a lot of places with Chef's names over the door, never a sign of the Chef and even the Chef's in the restaurant have never met the main man.   
Jamie Oliver has restaurants all over the place.  He opened one in Aberdeen, but was not there.  A friend of ours and her husband had dinner there, they said it was expensive and the portions where very small. In fact after their dinner they went to the Fish and Chip shop for a carry out. 
One of the Roux Bros has his name in an Hotel in Inverness, again, we have stayed a number of times as have our children.  Never seen him once.
I personally think that putting a famous name over the door is a great excuse to increase prices. 
Also, I realise the restaurant is not in Calis, but as this is the Calis Beach Forum a lot of people from Calis will read it.
Anyway, I happen to know all the  restaurants in the  Calis area have a Chef straight from Istanbul  :)

Jamie Oliver? I didn't realise this topic had descended into talking about fast food outlets!

I've been there a couple of times. As I recall it boasted a glowing comment from Rick Stein on the front of its menu.
