Rick Stein’s The Seafood Restaurant – New ‘Taste of 50 Years’ Menu 🐟
To mark 50 years since Rick and Jill Stein first opened The Seafood Restaurant in Padstow Harbour, the team has launched a special new celebratory four-course menu for £65.
Showcasing some of the restaurant’s most beloved dishes from the past five decades, the nostalgic feast is served daily for lunch and dinner.
Inspired by Rick’s signature style – simple, confident cooking using the finest seasonal ingredients – the four-course Taste of 50 Years menu, developed alongside his son, chef director Jack Stein, and head of food Jason Wass, celebrates the seafood classics and standout dishes that helped shape the legacy of the iconic Cornish restaurant.
With a story behind each plate, starters include fresh Dorset oysters or Maryland crab cakes followed by the likes of brill with truffle sauce, or lemon sole with shrimp and brown butter. For mains, there’s age-old favourites like Rick’s legendary Indonesian seafood curry and roast rump of lamb with broad beans and peas. End the experience on a sweet note with Rick’s personal favourite, a rich chocolate fondant, or a vanilla rice pudding, brûléed on top and served with Szechuan-spiced pineapple.
Jack Stein, chef director at Rick Stein Restaurants, comments: “I loved putting this 50th menu together with Dad. It was a real walk down memory lane choosing our best dishes from five decades of The Seafood Restaurant – we can’t wait to share them with our guests.”
To toast this landmark anniversary, diners can also enjoy an exclusive Stein’s 50th anniversary Purple Tiger Beer (£6) – a refreshing wheat beer infused with coriander, coconut and orange peel, created by Harbour Brewing in collaboration with Charlie Stein. The brew is named after the short-lived club Rick and Jill opened in the original space where Rick briefly tried his hand as a DJ before turning to the stove.
