Oyster Bedlam
Sunday, 10th October 2010
Heaven is a bed of native oysters, British natives preferably, Irish is next best. I remember watching the contestants at the Tabasco Oyster Opening Championships shuck the season’s first ostrea edulis at Bentley’s in Piccadilly, desperately twisting their knives to unhinge these most private of molluscs. Interest in oysters is growing, with beds being revived around the British coastline. My current favourite, Cornish Native Oysters, are harvested from the sea by skipper (Christopher) ‘Ranger’ in his non-motored, sailing craft, the Alf Smythers (available online from www.cornishnativeoysters.co.uk – they travel well, by the way.) For those that find raw too much to take, try them Rockafeller-ed, grilled with butter, a puree of fresh watercress and celery, and a few drops of pernod.

Pandora team wins Cornwall Catering Excellence Challenge 10/02/2010
Chef Dale McIntosh and his team scored a fantastic victory in the Cornwall Catering Excellence Challenge on Monday night (8 Feb). In a tense cook-off judged by a panel of Michelin-starred chefs, lecturers, restaurant owners and food critics, they beat five other teams from top restaurants and hotels in the county.
One of the judges, Michelin-starred chef Nathan Outlaw, described Dale's starter of 'Cornish Native Oyster set in Camel Valley Jelly' as one of the best dishes he had ever tasted.
