Where can you get a fantastic mid-week lunch in out-of-season St Ives? Look no further than the Porthminster Kitchen.
S
t Ives, with its rows of cobbled streets, thriving art scene and independent boutiques and bistros, is not only a bustling harbour town, but also a growing foodie destination. Thousands of visitors ock here in the summer to soak up the sun, so we made the most of the quieter season to enjoy a well-earned waterside lunch with the beach below all to ourselves. The second restaurant from the Porthminster Cafe, the Kitchen sits in prime position on the harbour front. Huge
windows provide incredible views across the bay, whatever the weather. The decor is fresh, urban and understated. We chose a table at the back so we could take in the views and the ambiance, and we were not disappointed. The chilli crab claw starter was a beauty, with its own implements and a generous portion of prawn crackers. Great fresh crabmeat, sweet and succulent. The anchovy and sage fritters I had were savoury, sweet, light and delicious.
