Michael Smith, executive Chef of both restaurants, explained: “We wanted to create a more casual dining environment where people can enjoy inventive but affordable food.”

Head chef at Porthminster Kitchen is Lee Wilson: A South African-born chef who has worked with Smith for many years.

He said: “You hear it so many times but we really are blessed with amazing produce and an inspirational food culture in Cornwall; Michael and I have both travelled and worked all over the world and it speaks volumes that there is nowhere else we would rather be.”
