Reviewing RICK STEIN'S RESTAURANT!
Вставка
- Опубліковано 25 бер 2024
- Rick Stein is one of my favourite chefs. I haven't had the opportunity to visit any of his restaurants in my life so I thought today would be a good day to head down to his restaurant in Barnes for a bit of seafood. I'm planning to go to Padstow in a few months time, so I'm looking forward to this one!

Keith Floyd is my favourite chef of all time, the man was a great chef, and above all, a normal bloke and a superb entertainer.
None of the current TV chefs come anywhere close.
That man was eccentric with a capital E! Craziness on legs but a fantastic chef and raconteur! Loved him.
The PC police would've shut Floyd down before he opened his first bottle of red.
He was up there for me as well -really demystified cheffing.
He was an incredibly man. Loved his shows Kev.
Keith is/was/will be the best by far, but I do like Rick too
Yes Keith Floyd was an utter genius
Loved the man. A superb chef
As much as I liked watching him he was an utter ***t to his cameraman.🤪🤪😁😁
@@GaryEats Soo entertaining to watch and unpredictable! I loved his style of cooking.
He was also a major pisshead! 😂
RIP
I've cooked this Dish many many times professionally. In Scotland on the East Coast. I'm also Scottish. The Cullen Skink liquor should be no thicker than whole milk. In other words there is no thickeners added only the potatoes. If the potatoes aren't over cooked you'll get very little starch released.
The Skink you're eating is cooked classically.
Thanks for the info, much appreciated.
Interesting. Good to know thanks.
Excellent information there, never had it personally but good to know it was cooked to the classic method 😋
had this dish at the ‘Plough’ in Basted Kent
nr BoroughGreen…
landlord (Ben McConnachie) is Scottish & knows how to look after customers.
well worth a visit!
good beers, good food, good service.
👍🏻
This guy works hard to give us a really genuinely review that all levels of wealth can enjoy
Really appreciate that Paul. I try to mix up price points and venues to keep it interesting and give lots of different types of places a go
a load of rot I cook them fish cakes better any day it's fish and chips he wouldn't know a good meal if it jump and bit him
@@ritadonnelly8820 all the best with your journey into learning the English language.
Who'd have thought it, Rick Stein getting some serious competition from Neil Morrissey.
Lol I think Neil wins on this account
Men competing badly 🤣
Neil Morrissey is the owner, Bob 'The Chef' cooks it, Can he cook it, yes he can......
You have been seriously conned.
@@ianthomas1060cool comment 😄
Keith Floyd was a genius and gave me a passion for cooking. Rick Stein is also amazing, but let’s not forget the great David Pritchard, who without, we would not know either of these great chefs. He was the one that brought Keith and Rick to our screens and sadly died in 2019.
Hi Mark. Oh yeah, I forgot Pritchard filmed both Floyd and Stein. Think Gary has a better relationship with his cameraman than Floyd had with his!
👍
He did mark and read his book a great read 👍
Nice for the legend that was Keith Floyd to get a mention too. Met him in his restaurant in Devon many years ago. He appeared at the urinal beside me. Normally, I don't chat in that situation, but I made an exception! Top bloke. Even washed his hands before the hand shake 😂
That’s a great story 😂
Ha me too at Floyd's Inn...sometimes he was drunk at the bar
Floyd on Fish ... he and Rick having a fishy feast on a trawler heading out of port - iconic!
They didnt get on at all after Rick got famous.
Floyd on Fish was my favourite
I loved Keith Floyd's passion for fish and his culinary abilities is what made that programme along with rick's involvement well
And where Rick was frying fish in the fryer in his fish and chip shop
As for the thinness of Cullen Skink soup, yes, it can be thin, but it also depends on the type of potato used to cook it. I prefer to use floury "tatties" such as Maris Piper or King Edward potatoes, which can thicken it up a bit. Coming from a Scotsman that grew up in a town 12 miles from Cullen
Lovely part of UK.
Totally agree on the tatties, best for chips as well. JimN
Thank you for the advice and my apologies, when I’ve had it before in Scotland 🏴 it was thicker 🤷♂️
Cullen soup is best with a thicker base as a milky, thin base I find unpalatable
Beautiful, we have stayed many times at Portsoy and eaten Cullen Skink often. There's a nice place in Whitehills that does a mean Cullen skink.
I think 'thin' is right, it's all about flavour. It is after all I believe, a fishwives recipe .
Keith Floyd was the best, a true eccentric. Do love Rick Stein, and loved his dog Chalky on the programmes x
NO DOGS !
I fully agree with your comment
Aye, bless Chalky..🔥
@@johnsmith-rs2vkyes to dogs and cats.
I always liked watching Gary Rhodes, He had a good way of presenting his show.
Yeah I did too he had so much charisma and good humour.
An absolute gentleman RIP Gary Rhodes
My absolute favourite Chef, Gary Rhodes. Gone way too soon. 🙏
You are such a sweet man. I used to be a restaurant critic for a respected publication, but you do it much better than I ever did. so much love for you.
Wow, thank you! I very much doubt that Georgia but I really appreciate the incredibly kind words and hope you have a lovely weekend
Keith is a legend! He always loved to cook with wine, wonder why? 😂
Was a legend 😊
LOL. Indeed!
@@silviodawson3414 Keith Floyd was/is bigger than life.
One third for cooking and two thirds for quaffing. I'm the same
Always a quick swig ! RIP . Dear Keith .
I loved Keith Floyd, too! He was very clever and quirky but truly knew his way around the kitchen. Rick is also a favourite. I wrote to him a couple times as his dog, Chalky, was related to mine! I have signed photos (complete with a paw print) from them, tucked away in one of his cook books! The food looked good - I think I would've picked the same things as you, in that set menu, though the lemon tart that went with the bottom options would also have appealed! Again, a fantastic vlog and brilliant review. Your style of presentation is great, so please don't change. Definitely my favourite food reviewer now - you don't complicate things with fancy language or fluff it out to lessen the times when things aren't so great! Thank you! xx
Very kind as always Liz thank you, and a brilliant story wow x
Top notch, super professional video as always 👌🏼 you deserve a hell of alot more subscribers!! Keep them coming 🍻
Thanks a ton!
There’s so many variations of Cullen Skink. Yes it should be thicker and should also contain potatoes to help thicken the sauce and maybe leeks and a little fish or chicken stock. That’s how we used to do it in the restaurant.
Thank you Andi, lots of different opinions on this one ☝️
I was in Falmouth a few years ago and fancied some fish and chips so I headed to Stein's chippy. I got as far as the price list and turned around. I recall it was about £18 for the basic cod and chips. Robbing bastard.
Fkin hell mate the average price of a half decent chippy is between 9 and 13 quid in the UK so at a place like that not that bad really is it. Especially of its nice nothing wrong with it once in a while
He did say a few years ago
I remember the skatis hotels had brillt breakfast was buffet and there kedgeree was
That looked more like a taster menu?
We had the fish and chips at Falmouth ... you should have spent the money.
Made me laugh when you said you watched the plate of mussels pass by... l've lost count of the times I've seen another dish go past and thought 'Wish I'd ordered that now' 😂 Another great review Gary 👍
Same, Mark!
School boy error Mark they looked WOW 👍
Another great review Gary, I’m a big fan of Rick so interesting to watch the video. Keep up the good work.
Thank you Gary
Amazing review as always my good man. Keep up the amazing work. 👊👏
Very kind Ryan thank you 👌
LOVED watching Keith Floyd’s shows growing up!
Me too 🍷
Great watch Gary. I went to see Rick Stein at St George’s hall in Bradford on Friday. What a smashing all round guy he is.
I may have to do it myself. Love Rick and his shows. Glad you had a great time!
No I’m not convinced, not a lot there for thirty quid. People go as their under the misconception that Rick Stein is in the kitchen cooking ! Just another fancy chef but put his name to it and over charge.
Gary you are very quickly becoming one of my favourite content makers. Keep doing what you do each day my friend. Much love to you and your family. Cant wait until the next video. 😊
Very kind and appreciated Paul thank you
So happy to see your channel grow so much! Well deserved. I think you would make a killing doing more low, mid and high price comparisons of meals too. As I said, much congrats on your growing channel, I remember just yesterday it felt like you hit the 50k mark!
We have some comparison videos coming up soon
Gaz i loved Keith Floyd too & all his programmes but Floyd on France was a masterpiece of culinary TV because of what it meant..
I absolutely agree with you Gaz. He was a wonderful chef
Floyd on France is my favourite cook book. My Toy Poodle is called Floyd!
Keith Floyd deffo got me interested in cooking!
Yeah, got that on DVD. Thoroughly enjoyed that classic.
I loved Keith Floyd he was always pissed out of his head 😂😂.
I loved him too 🍷🍷
Naaah - the kitchen was pissed, not him 😂.
He was a great guy, I loved him too.
He loved a glass of vino
Lovely guy yeah
Keith Floyd was the best for me an absolute legend, got to admit Rick stein is the best tv chef on tv today by far haven't got time for the other celebrity chefs, the meal looked good the soup looked perfect to me as i don't like thick soups i much prefer a broth type soup or a beef consommé, fish cakes looked a decent portion alas I'm not a fishy man so in my case i wouldn't have ordered the starter or mains but the pud looked brill, and the location was fab, great review as normal 8 was a good score i think a 9 would have been fairer but you were there so i take your word for it, another gem thanks Gary.
Thank you as always Harold the meal was good but not exceptional hence my score 👍
Gary love your reviews always makes me feel hungry!
Always very honest and informative.
Your mention of the legend Keith Floyd brought back memories thanks , keep it up.
Very kind Charlie thank you 🙏
Love gary. Straight to the point. Always truthful. And no clickbait like every other youtuber. Love him 👍👍👍
Very kind Stephen thank you very much 👍👍
Rick's UA-cam channel is my go to when I want to throw together something for house guests...love his approach to food and life.
I've subbed to it for a while
Thanks for telling us about it. Never knew it existed.
Great video again!! Like you i'm an absolute Rick Stein fan boy, BUT.....all of his places always massively overcharge dining out on the name, particularly in Padstein, he's basically a chain now like The Ivy etc but due his large approachable tv presence he will always have a conga line of unsuspecting tourists, but that's where we are in hospitality at the moment, also at those prices, the main needed a lemon wedge! :D :D :D ooking forward to the next one! GM Rich
I agree Rich they are jus5 a chain however this was good 👍
So glad I found your channel!Another enjoyable video, thank you so much!😊🎉
You are so welcome! I'm glad you found it as well with your lovely comments
I always enjoy the way Rick Stein combines literature wuth food. He'll read a poem or a passage from a novel to put the dish into historical context. I find the mix of history and food fascinating.
Great to hear never got his cook books
Yes thats what unique about Rick its his poetry on the edge of a cliff in Cornwall in the early days, just think he became too commercial
Whereas I can't stand his 'literary' pretensions. Each to their own.
@@nickmiller76 Exactly, each to their own. His fish and chips look rubbish though 😂
Great review again Gary.......For the location , quality of food and service it looked worth it to me! 🙂
I understand Graham thank you
One aspect I like about your channel is the intro and outro.
Barnes is such a lovely part of London, definitely one of my favourites. Wish I could afford to live there lol
Another delightful review!
Very kind and really appreciated
Im a chef 10 mins from Cullen, Skink definetly on the thin side but overall looks great👍
Superb to hear Jonny
I’ve seen people from the northeast say that a tin of condensed milk should be added, so I don’t think it should ever be thin.
I get that this is a more refined version of cullen skink, but still feel it could've done with a bit more body... Glad to hear it tasted so good though, and that it came with bread!!
I've used Jerusalem artichoke instead of potato when making cullen skink before to keep it a little lighter and add some flavour interest!
I have to agree with you. I felt it needed a bit more density but others have commented that it's fine!
Lovin’ your video Gary! Looking forward to Padstow!!! 🐠 xx
Very kind thank you xx
Very fair and balanced!! That is why this channel is addictive viewing. Well done, Gary.
Very kind thank you Ed
He has a restaurant here in Poole, in Sandbanks, the very expensive bit of Poole where all the houses overlooking Poole Bay look like they were made in Minecraft. The restaurant is also very expensive and mediocre at best, but it's much loved by the sort of person who really, really wants to be allowed into the golf club.
Lol I know what you mean about Minecraft, I went in one about a year ago, was pretty unusual inside too, felt like I was in a rich serial killers house 🤣 ….cool to see the sea looking either way from inside the house though 👍
Lol I understand you Dan. (Not about the Mincraft part, I'm not sure what that is lol)
the minecraft and golf club parts cracked me up lmao😂
@GaryEats
minecraft is a popular building and crafting game where the whole world is made out of blocks.
i guess what the op is saying is that the architecture isn't that impressive lol.
@@UA-cam-Censorship-Police
I am not familiar with Minecraft (I sort of worked out it was a computer game) either apart from heard the name - I just assumed it meant it was like some AI artificial game where everything was picture postcard perfect nothing out of place like in the movies.
Three great plates of food and an idyllc location on the river. You mentioned the mussels as a starter. As a huge seafood fan, that would have caught my eye. Whilst I love a sticky toffee pud, I think I would have opted for the the ginger pudding, as long as it had a decent kick of ginger to it.
I jus5 wanted to see what the set menu looked like on this occasion and will be trying seafood soon 👍
Loving the content Gary. I'm also a big fan of Rick Stein and Keith Floyd as well. Keep it up guys
Very kind thank you 🙏
Another classy looking place with great looking dishes. But haddock starter, haddock mains?!?! I too thought the soup far too thin, that's not the way i've had/seen it in the past. And on (my) screen, the fishcakes looked a good size, and with there being 3. But didn't look like there was enough sauce to go around. And STP, you can't go wrong, ha. PS, scratch the starter/main comment, I once had chicken livers, followed by calves liver. The tum wants what the tum wants eh 🙂
No I can’t let the comment go as you are completely right, my mistake. However I’m pleased you done the same lol 😂. Take care and see you soon 👍
65.7K. Numbers keep going up and deservedly so. Best wishes, Gary xxx.
Thanks so much Paul. Take care!
@@GaryEatsgreat job
400 more in next 11 hours.
Thanks Gary for another mouth watering review, some good friends f mine didn’t have a good experience at this restaurant pre pandemic ~ good to they’ve picked up, as ever keep em coming!
Sorry to hear that Jamie not good 😳
I think poor Gary need's to get a life god love him boring I wouldn't give you any marks Gary get a life
Absolutely love your videos sir!! Your happy go lucky attitude is really contagious! I enjoy your critiques and observations! I can't wait to make the trip over the pond from Canada to try some of your recommendations :) Take care sir and thank you!! :)
That’s very kind John and much appreciated all the way from Canada 🇨🇦
I enjoyed watching Keith Floyd you were always guaranteed a laugh, the director David Pritchard died 4 yrs ago now January 2019.
Rick Stein is also very watchable, good review as always , take care Gary, , Gareth
Really sad to hear about Pritchard. Take care mate.
Floyd in is 2cv and a bottle of wine
James Martin now owns that 2cv! Just a bit of useless information 😊
You need to be drunk to try and drive a 2cv.
Thanks Gary for another brilliant video , I had fish cakes at Rick Steins Padstow restaurant about twenty years ago they came with a chilli jam dipping sauce they were very good . Keep up the good work 👏
You're more than welcome anytime
Top job again Gary, perfect review and a fair score I think.
Very kind Jason thank you 🙏
Looking good Gary 💯 , have you had work done recently?
No I’m not that vain lol 😂
@@GaryEats all the same, we watched this video with friends and all agreed you're looking magnificent
Early again, my mum bloody loves this man! I hope this lives up
Rick? He's a fantastic chef
@@GaryEats both
I took my father to here for his birthday excellent location, nice atmosphere, my father ordered the Thai Fish Curry, I had a taste of it at the end, it was the best Thai fish curry I've ever eaten, If only id tasted it at the beginning I would have devoured it!
Wow that’s really great to hear 👍
I love watching Ricks shows on the telly. I’m delighted you enjoyed your meal.
I enjoy his programs as well 👍
The problem is all that food can be made in vast quantities. I think an 8 is very generous for that, 7 here but hard to argue with Gary.
Let’s just say 7.5 Henry 👍
@@GaryEats Remember you were in a good mood Gary 😂
Met Keith floyd in Cardiff circa 1983....I asked him if he wasn't drinking wine what was his other favourite tipple ? He replied "Simple old chap, Newcastle brown ale...guaranteed to get you pissed." Ps the Cullen skink was too thin 😢 Pps The good the bad and the ugly...Rick Stein, Harvey Weinstein and Frankenstein 😂
He also liked a large black Bushmills !
"Just a quick slurp" as he'd say.😊. Bless him..🔥
Unless in was before he was famous, it would have been 1985 or after as his first Series on TV was Floyd on Fish 1985.
@@nigel8499 probably right nigel
Very funny Colin I really loved watch Keith 🍷🍷🍷 and naughty
Hi Gary, another great review...All looked good. Certainly need to go for the set meals!!!...Thanks for your efforts
Very kind Malcom it’s a good meal
Food looked lovely tge fishcakes were small that sticky toffee pudding looked delicious thanks gary as qlways brilliant review
Very kind Julie thank you
Yeah that Ivy in Cobham not a bit of bread with soup. Bad.
Very bad Mike. Always need bread/roll with soup
Even in the workhouse here we get bread with our gruel.@@GaryEats
Well done Gary Lad, decent looking food. Quite expensive but if you’re getting quality then it’s value for money. The problem with Steins restaurant in Padstow is there’s so many better, cheaper options available.
Top man. Thank you.
Yes, I've not heard good things in all honesty mate.
10/10, considering where it is , overheads, location views, looked top class , well done Gary,see you on the next one.
Great score thank you
8 is a fair shout the pudding looked mouthwatering another great video gary your channel is really growing & fair play too you have a great week 😊👏👏
Very kind of you Nicholas. Take care
Sorry as a Cornishman I would not set foot in one of his establishments. Liked what he did back in the 90s and even bought one of his early books then.
Wonder if Rick prepared your plate Gary? Or was he back in Australia.
Clearly he isn’t the cook Clive and understand your comment
I don't understand, can you explain why you're no longer a fan of his
Hi Gary, you're travelling to Padstow to try Rick Steins fish and chips? Please use this as a benchmark - 5 out of 10, poor. I'm down there every year. They're really not great.
Not a problem my friend. I won't just be doing Rick's, I want to try some real family run independent places as well!
@@GaryEats I would never get fish and chips from a 'top' restaurant. They always mess with it too much. Fish and chips is always best from your local chippy. I live in Australia though, and my local pommy fish and chip shop is 50 miles away 😞
Great review as always Gary! I think you did the right thing by saving other options for Padstow.
Overall today's meal seemed reasonable considering all elements.
Ah Floyd and his ubiquitous glass of wine.. what a bon vivant!
Congratulations on hitting the 65k mark Gary it's well deserved 👏
Very kind Phil and I really loved Floyd a real star 🌟🍷🍷
I visited Rick Stein’s cookery school in Padstow many years ago with my brother which was a Christmas present from my husband. We had a great few days and the booze was definitely flowing as was the food ! It was definitely an experience. I was surprised you ordered two smoked haddock dishes. Great vlog as always
Great story and an error on my behalf well spotted 👍
Bet Rick has never cooked a chip in that particular restaurant
I doubt it
No wonder the guys a multi 😂
Yes, the Wild Sea bass was calling my name until I saw the price... next time!
The Sea Bass was wild when it got caught. It was still none too happy when it got cooked 😂😂😂.
Massive Rick stein fan so this was a great video Gary. Food looked sensational, the sticky toffee pudding looked Devine
Glad you liked it Matty
Hi Gary, looked like a pretty good dining experience. Yes, I've always loved Rick Stein's TV programs. You get a lot more than great food. You get Rick reading Thomas Hardy poems, excerpts from novels, and the culture and history of the places he visits. Spain and the story of El Cid comes first to mind. A great man, much loved by his fans who number in the millions. When I was a kid, I'd sit myself down on the couch, mum's terrific Sri Lankan curry on my lap, and watch Keith Floyd, imagining I was having some of that rare-vintage French red he was quaffing. What an extraordinary man ! He seemed to have such a pleasant nature. ( I have to figure out how to get onto Telegram today ) . My score was 9/10. Thanks Gary. Another fine noshery you got us into !
What an absolutely brilliant and wonderful comment thank you so much but your score was one point out lol
I'm dropping a 9 on this one.
The combined portion size looked about substantial. Quality was definitely all over it. Price was acceptable. The soup was too watery, in my opinion, as well.
The dessert absolutely carried this through for a solid, if not perfect, score.
That's fair enough. A good score!
Thinks he’s a better chef than what he is
Not a fan of him Walter? Lol
Lovely as usual.. Barnes had a fantastic recording studio too with many famous bands recording there.
👍
Great review Garry, what a lovely location.
Thanks Paul. Superb location!
Stein's fish and chips are a rip off. Do not believe the hype. Poor quality and grossly over priced.
I've not heard good things Terry...
Agreed absolute overpriced sh*te
Your exactly correct
Yeah the fish and chips aren’t worth half the price they charge
@@jimthefinger7391seriously it's you're how difficult is English for you?
Sticky toffee pudding, ,YUM!! my favourite, has to have lots of sauce and I like ice-cream on mine. Heaven on a spoon...
This was lovely
Another great review. Thanks Gary.
I'm glad you mentioned Keith Floyd. What a character. Somewhere in my house I've got his book 'Floyd on Fish'. I don't think I ever made any of the recipes but it's worth reading just for his asides. You can imagine them in his voice with the accompanying mannerisms.
In the intro to one- and bear in mind the cultural references pertain to 1984- he says something like "this is a dish that you might even persuade your orange haired kids to eat, if you can get them out of their bedrooms where they're listening to Headache 100".
lol I loved Floyd and a real character as you’ve illustrated 🍷🍷
What a wonderful surprise! Thank you for showcasing seafood for once! I have had it with ethnic and mainstream videos! I do hope you enjoyed the experience!❤
Not a problem Anna. I love seafood and will be doing more of it on the channel!
Great Vlog Gary, as always. Keith liked the old Vino as he filmed which made It so entertaining. You keep the channel going as it is...doing good sir. 🙌
Very kind and that’s probably why I liked him so much lol 🍷🍷
What a great video! / Oh bless Keith Floyd, also my fave TV chef of all time. Have all his books and all his media on archive. Probably my all time fave resource of his is "Floyd on India" - amazing book and amazing TV series, such good memories. Got all Rick Stein's books too ! Right back to the video / OK - all looked really great for sure. I am biased here, but I just know I would rather pay a premium for say 'Indian' or 'thai' as compared to what was served today for you - but no way knocking it, it looked fabulous. So I think 8/10 is fair. Mark.
Thanks Mark. Top man and thank you as always. Have a superb weekend.
Great review as always Gary food looks fantastic I agree Rick Stein is a great chef keep up the super reviews
Very kind Jack thank you
Floyd was an absolute legend! Loved his TV shows. If you’ve never read his autobiography it’s well worth a read. A life extremely well lived!
I’ve read it and David Pritchard as well the producer 🍷🍷🍷
Yeah definitely agree with you gary about the soup and fishcakes. Mind you it looked absolutely delicious mate. And the sticky toffee pudding looked to die for. Great review gary 👏
Very kind Neil,thank you
Keith is my all time favorite chef and he was quite big in Sweden when his show was first shown in the early 90/s! Of course another great review, Gary and the food was obviously great.
I really enjoyed watching Keith and thank you
Drool, drool,drool . Thanks for the review Gary, Rick Stein is my favourite too 👍
Very kind and we agree 👍
(88) Delighted that Rick Stein is still going for it. Really liked watching his cooking shows when I lived in NZ and also Keith Floyd. Everything looked picture perfect; personally I only had Cullen Skink that had a light broth like that one. Shed 5 (restaurant on the Wellington wharf front, not sure if its still there) only had it on their menu on the weekend. Always came with a fresh bap made in house. I would have given it a 10, but I have a small appetite.
I was wrong about the soup so apologies and portion excellent if you don’t have a big appetite 👍
I'm not a seafood person as such, my culinary palate stretches to Haddock or Cod encased in a light crispy batter, Monk fish in a curry, or a Salmon baked with accompaniments of crisp fresh salad and new potatoes. My wife and myself ate at Rick Stein's restaurant in Padstow back in the early '90's, it was nothing out of the ordinary but there were queues like you wouldn't believe, it had a take away part as well. I can't remember the cost exactly but I can remember summing up that it wasn't worth the price difference from most other fish and chip eateries.
Exactly the same as I found this restaurant, good but that’s about it 👍
Love a bit of the Stranglers from Floyd.
BTW Gary that was Rick's first ever TV appearance on Keith's program.
Me too great music and yes I think I said in the introduction 👍
The soup doesn’t have to be thick (I am Scottish) just full of flavour. I was actually impressed with the fish cakes as you had three! Normally only two are served and they may be a bit larger but cool quickly once opened and I like food to be at least warm. Am absolutely green with envy as far as the sticky toffee pudding is concerned! You’re one lucky lad!
Today I was a lucky fella for sure
Rick Stein. What a gentleman. Loved his programme’s for years. His son (can’t remember his name) was/ is also a cook and a fine one too. Unfortunately ended up under the father’s shadow and never became a Rick. Kieth however was a genius. Great video guys. 👍
Thank you Phillip, Keith was my absolute favourite a real character 🍷🍷
Hello from New Zealand. Love your videos Gary. We've been to Rick Stein's seafood restaurant in Cornwall 3 times, first visit was 2014 and it was absolutely fantastic. We took our son in 2019 and what a disappointment, it was so bad that we said we'd never go back again 😢I'd love you to review that restaurant even though I know you said you were going to try his fish and chips in Padstow. Interesting fact, Rick lived here in New Zealand back in the day! 😊
Keep up the great work, you're the best ❤
Thank you Kelley I e heard it’s a bit hit and miss so I might give that a go instead 👍
Hi Gary, I like it that you are becoming more diverse in your choice of restaurants and dishes you choose, also it’s interesting to see a starter and a pudding.
Thank you John we do try to mix things up
This was an especially interesting chapter to watch. As much as I love watching Gary eat various breakfasts, watching this complete seafood dinner with its variety of ingredients was even more interesting. The eggs with the fish cakes were a very unusual combination.
Hi Paul, this was a good one but not outstanding, lovely location but portion a bit disappointing hence the score 👍
Great review again Gary , Cullen skink is my go to starter whenever available.
Thank you, it's delicious
Food looked fanatastic . The set menu looked great value for money . no problem with the service charge either . Where you get stiffed is the on the wines ,8/10 from me also ,you looked happy when the pudding came along lol .Another great review GaryWill be giving this ago sometime .Cheers
Thank you Lee I hope you enjoy when you visit
Great video GAZ you present really well buddy stay safe 👍👍💙
Very kind Alan much appreciated
Very enjoyable video as always. I went to Padstow and I was very disappointed. Hopefully you will have a better experience. I will be looking forward to watch the next video .
Much appreciated
Brilliant analysis again Gary
Thank you Eamon
Great as always!
👍
Love watching Rick Stein's programmes, and the old re-runs of Keith Floyd. Glad you've gone to a "posh" restaurant for a change, and shown everyone that they often do cheaper set menus, especially at lunch times. I went to The Cross at Kenilworth and was blown away at how good their lunch set menu was, and whilst an expensive treat, the bill wasn't as scary as I assumed it would be.
I really like Keith a real character 🍷🍷 we try to mix things up on the channel so appreciate your comment
