A Cornish seafood restaurant has been crowned the best in the UK in an annual food guide, elbowing Cumbria’s L’Enclume into second place after four years on top.
The restaurant Nathan Outlaw in Port Isaac, named after its chef founder and owner, has been awarded the No 1 spot in The Good Food Guide 2018 after notching up a perfect score of 10 for the second year running.
Outlaw’s flagship restaurant is hailed by the guide for being “the whole package”, offering diners a menu carefully crafted around the freshest local seafood in a relaxed dining room with perfect service that “just happens in the most discreet and attentive way”.
Simon Rogan’s L’Enclume in Cartmel, Cumbria, retains a perfect 10 score for its unashamedly “fiercely seasonal ingredients” and “knockout dishes”.
The guide, published by the supermarket chain Waitrose, also raves about new entrants including a 12-seater Kent dining room that does not yet have a customer loo, and a canteen in a posh holiday park.
Away from the plaudits, the guide says readers have complained in unprecedented numbers that UK restaurants are getting noisier, with music “played at Glastonbury force” increasingly spoiling the dining experience.
The guide’s editor, Elizabeth Carter, said: “Nathan Outlaw’s food is characterised by the absolute freshness of ingredients and a clear sense of purpose. He has done an enormous amount to educate and encourage the public appetite for fish, driven by his supply of impeccably fine ingredients and a special talent for creating unique and thrilling fish dishes.”

You sure Bert Large isn't doing all the work in the kitchen?

And the chef/owner of the second place "L'Enclume" wants us all to know that:

A traceable dining experience - what I always wanted. Perhaps it means one's poo is radioactive....
... and the idea of changing the menu with seasonal ingredients...! Who'da thunk?
