Shore - Penzance

A very special restaurant with all dishes using different fishes and cooking styles. The chef will have a brief introduction on his cooking philosophy at the start and then would briefly describe each dish before serving. Moreover, you can stay behind to share with him after the dinner. The first time I can have such close free communication with the chef. Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

Bruce’s tasting menu was the highlight of our 10 day gastronomic tour of Devon and Cornwall. For someone who claims never to have visited Japan, his kaiseki menu would do even Endo proud. His interpretation of chawanmushi was sublime with a fresh and crunchy shitake and caviar. Superb fish fresh from the quay and the locally grown vegetables were delicious. Even the shiso tasted like shiso tastes in Japan, a remarkable achievement given that shiso in UK is generally bland and disappointing. Three things to bear in mind: 1) try to show up at 6.45pm to get the best tables. Dinner starts promptly at 7pm. 2) don’t expect any meat. 3) Bruce leaves the kitchen between every other course to describe the following two courses. His account of where he sourced the ingredients and how he prepared them is truly fascinating. Finally, a meal at the Shore is not only a true feast for all your senses but also incredibly good value. Service: Dine in Meal type: Dinner Price per person: £70–80 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 4

An absolute must if you're in the area (or not! love seafood, east asian food and a truly passionate chef. Unlike anywhere we've eaten before, and all the better for it. The wine pairing was spot on and we licked our plates clean and that's ok... For us, the very reason we will return to Penzance in the not too distant future. Thank you Bruce Vicki for an amazing evening.. we are still talking about it.... Service: Dine in Meal type: Dinner Price per person: £100+ Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
