Comment from a visitor
A quick note to thank you for organising such an enjoyable and educational trip for Andre and myself. It was very illuminating to see the trail of the fish, from boat to plate! We were particularly impressed with both the skill and professionalism of your staff and also the hospitality showed to us during a tasty lunch. Simon's a great chef!As regards Ralegh's Cross, we would like to switch our fish order across to you and Andre has been given authority to start ordering as and when.
