Wild Cornwall lunch at Fifteen Cornwall

The rather exceptional Jamie Oliver inspired Fifteen Cornwall restaurant, overlooking the beach at Watergate Bay near Newquay, is offering a three course "Wild Cornwall" lunch menu for a very appetising price of £19.50 from 2 November to 18 December.

The autumn-themed menu includes fine local meat and game, and of course a selection of locally landed fish and locally farmed vegetables, fruits and herbs. All with an Italian twist.

The view alone from Fifteen Cornwall makes it worth a visit, and the food promises to be a real treat.

The new service is planned to start in time for Easter 2010, and will provide a fast and convenient way for folk from South Wales to visit the delights of North Devon.
