Cornish fish restaurant The Nathan Outlaw has been named the UK’s top restaurant
The restaurant knocked previous winner L’Enclume off the top spot after five years
A CORNISH fish restaurant has been named the UK’s best place to eat.
The Nathan Outlaw, named after its founder, beat Cumbria’s L’Enclume into second after five years of topping the Good Food Guide list.
Nathan, 39, set up the two Michelin starred restaurant in Port Isaac in 2007.
Good Food Guide editor Elizabeth Carter said: "Nathan Outlaw's food is characterised by the absolute freshness of ingredients and a clear sense of purpose."
She added: "Nobody seems to leave Nathan Outlaw's staff - they just go and work in another one of his restaurants. They obviously think he's a pretty good boss as well as a fine chef."
Outlaw said: "To hear that Restaurant Nathan Outlaw has made it to No 1 is phenomenal. I'd say the award has come due to the hard work and dedication of our team who have now been working together for a decade.
"It just goes to show that if you stay true to yourself, get your head down, look after your customers and use the very best ingredients available to you, you'll make it to the top."
