1 All our fish is Responsibly sourced, ensuring there is plenty left for future generations to enjoy. We are often asked to describe the different types of fish we have on offer so I will attempt a brief note on some here: Cod - Meaty, Succulent large white flakes at its best deep fried in batter or Grilled and served with a sauce. Haddock My personal favourite a little more flavoursome than Cod and wonderful deep fried or grilled. Best fried with the skin on to optimize the flavour and unlike Cod the skin is good to eat. Woof - Actually Sea Cat and somewhere between Cod and Haddock in the flavour department, Very good for grilling. Plaice Milky White flesh with a Fresh slightly citrus taste. Lemon Sole My second favourite fish after Haddock. Fresh seaside taste with a hint of lemon melting velvety soft texture. Skate Wing An unusual texture with long linear flakes with a slight stickiness and a delicate, clean taste with a pleasant slightly acidic aftertaste. Monk Dense juicy sweet flesh perfect deep fried in chunky pieces. Halibut The meat eaters fish like a good rare steak, substantial yet tender it is good cooked in a variety of ways and can hold it's own in some robust flavour combinations. Turbot Highly prized fish with a sweet, juicy, slightly sticky flesh. Can be Poached, Grilled, Pan Fried or Oven Baked. Smaller fish circa 1½lbs are best cooked on the bone. Brill Medium firm white flesh with a delicate flavour. Whilst many people think Turbot is the King of Fish almost as many think Brill is: well Brill Dover Sole Juicy small tightly packed flavoursome flakes best cooked on the bone and served plain or with a simple light butter sauce. Wild Sea Bass A hint of mussel like iodine both skin and flesh are very tasty and good to eat - best pan fried or grilled. John Dory We only get a few of these landed locally so it is often not available but when it is we quickly snap up. It is prized for it s milky, firm and smooth flesh. Salmon instantly recognisable by it s distinct colour, which varies from dusty pink to bright orange and silky rich flesh. We use wild local fish when available in season or the superb Wester Ross farmed Salmon. Squid Wonderfully succulent with a texture like firm panna cotta at its best pan fried in a little butter with fresh ground black pepper. Hake quite a mild fish, with a white flaky texture and a fine flavour that is more subtle than that of cod. The fish has a soft, iron-grey skin. In France it is often called Saumon Blanc (White Salmon) Ling This fish is closely associated with cod and is a member of the cod group. Ling has a long, tapered body with marbled brown and white skin and a silver belly. The meat is white and textured with a sweet flavour Mackerel A firm-fleshed, oil-rich fish with iridescent silver- and blue-striped skin. It s delicious and nutritious, with intense creamy meat packed with omega-3 fatty acids
