Worst bit was the baby leaf spinach, a personal favourite, so salty we could not eat it! Room was so hot we could n't sleep. Above the kitchen. He wasn't there of course so cannot say much else.
Course we did the right thing and payed and shut up and left.... we still enjoy watching his food. Though when we looked at his trip across the canal du midi we saw how much salt he uses....
Good luck.

Wow, what a great place Padstow is. It was very quiet and the local pubs were great, just what i expected. I got a little addicted to the local brew "Tribute" and as for the food well one word "amazing". Didnt manage to meet the man him self though !

We spoted 4 restaurants, a deli, furniture shop, art gallery, bakery and a body shop type of place oh and the seafood school, oops forgot the hotel and self contained holiday homes. Have i missed anythin !!?? Fair play to him, he has done a lot for the area money wise. We went to a few more fishing villages/towns and they were very drab places compaired to Padstow.
