Join us for a day of seasonal seafood cookery, where you’ll discover the joy of working with the finest local ingredients Cornwall has to offer. Under the expert guidance of our Head Chef Nick, you’ll learn to prepare and cook a stunning selection of fresh fish and shellfish, sourced straight from our shores.
For this course, we’ll be working with the freshest flat fish, round fish, and shellfish—whatever’s just been landed and is at its very best. To accompany this wonderful Cornish seafood, we’ll be using a selection of beautiful local vegetables, bringing the flavours of the season to life on your plate.
Throughout the day, you’ll pick up a range of essential seafood skills, from fish filleting and shellfish preparation to making sauces and working with seasonal produce. Whether you’re a keen home cook or just love great food, this is your chance to immerse yourself in the flavours of Cornwall and take home some truly delicious inspiration.
