This espisode is a conversation with Alex Key, chef and owner of the Rocket Store in Boscastle a small hidden gem in the historic harbour of this small North Cornish town. And one of my favorite spots in Cornwall.
So it’s definitely one of the places we’ll visit on the Eat Wild weekend.
The Coastguard actually did store rockets here in the 1800rds scroll down for links to the history of the building.
we sat down to have lunch to talk about his background, how they are sourcing the best quality produced, and how his dad fishes for the restaurant using old techniques. Just a beautiful story about the passion for good quality, honest food.
You will be hungry after listening to this. Enjoy it and go eat at the Rocket Store when you’re in the area. I promise you’ll love it.
The ending is a bit abrupt because the food sounds were a bit much after that point.
After lunch, Alex and his kids showed me the farm and woodlands, a lovely afternoon. Thank you so much Alex for the hospitality.
