STOP IT šŸ˜‚

What a flippin’ day.

Talk about imposter syndrome. We spent most of today looking around the room thinking, ā€œSurely we’re just here to clap for everyone else?ā€

Turns out… we were but we were also clapping for ourselves!

Edie’s has been named No. 22 in The Good Food Guide’s Top 100 Best Local Restaurants in the UK.

TWENTY-TWO!! 🤯

Honestly, utterly bonkers!

A little neighbourhood restaurant in Carlyon Bay, run by our family, somehow ending up at number 22 alongside some of the most incredible independent restaurants in the country. We’ll never quite get our heads around it.

Congratulations to every single restaurant in the Top 100, but a special shout-out to our fellow Cornish restaurants. We know just how much hard work goes into doing what we all do, and we’re so proud to be flying the flag for Cornwall alongside you ā¤ļø

To our amazing team, our suppliers, our family and every single one of you who has booked a table, left a review, recommended us or simply cheered us on… thank you. We genuinely couldn’t have done this without you.

What. A. Day ā¤ļø

Meet Bethany. Or Bee, as we all call her ā¤ļø

She’s 16.

She’s worked with us for just over a year and if you’ve ever been looked after by her at Edie’s, you’ll probably remember her. She’s always smiling, genuinely interested in people, loves a good chat and, somehow, seems wise well beyond her years.

This week, Bee swapped the dining room for the kitchen as part of her work experience.

I’ll be honest… we thought she’d enjoy it.

What we didn’t expect was just how naturally she would fit in.

She kept up with the chefs, gave as good as she got with the banter, worked incredibly hard and soaked up absolutely everything. It quickly became obvious that she isn’t just brilliant front of house.

She can cook too.

Hospitality doesn’t often give you people who can genuinely do both. It’s a rare thing.

Watching Evan teach her was just as lovely. At only 20 himself, he’s already becoming the kind of chef every young person hopes they’ll learn from. Patient, encouraging, calm and brilliant at breaking things down so they make sense.

Sometimes the biggest privilege of running a restaurant isn’t the awards or the recognition.

It’s watching young people discover what they’re capable of.

We’re ridiculously proud of both of them.

The future of hospitality is in very good hands ā¤ļø

So when honey & almond iced parfait went up on the pass, I wasn’t rushing to try it. I only did out of curiosity, two days ago.

I was wrong. Properly, embarrassingly wrong.

The parfait is soft and cold against the poached apricots, with crĆØme anglaise pulling it all together and a scatter of almond for crunch. It’s the kind of dessert that changes your mind about things you thought you knew you didn’t like.

Which makes this bittersweet to write. It’s on the menu for lunch tomorrow only, then it’s gone by dinner. If you’ve been meaning to try it, tomorrow lunch is your last chance. If you already have, you’ll understand why I’m annoyed at myself for waiting so long.

I watched a man close his eyes mid bite the other day.

Not in a weird way, I promise I don’t usually stare at people eating. But something in his face made me stop.

He’d just tried the John Dory. For a second I genuinely couldn’t tell if he loved it or hated it. I took a breath, started walking over, ready to fix whatever was wrong.

Then he smiled. Properly smiled. Eyes shut, somewhere else entirely.

Food does that sometimes. It’s not just dinner, it’s a doorway back to somewhere. A memory, a person, a version of yourself from years ago. You don’t get to choose when it happens. It just does.

Behind every plate like that is someone stood at a hot pass, spooning sauce vierge with more care than most people give a Sunday roast. That’s not an accident.

John Dory, carrot & coriander rƶsti, shrimp, mussel and cherry tomato sauce vierge.

We rarely keep dishes for very long because the seasons keep moving, and we’d hate to miss them

The exception? Cornish hake

Every time we think it’s time to say goodbye, someone (I’m not naming names… me) finds a reason to keep it

This version has had a wonderful run, but its time has almost come an end

I have a feeling its replacement won’t disappoint

Cornish hake, golden beetroot, radish, pancetta, herb yoghurt dressing

I’ve always said my favourite colour is green.

Some people get flowers.
Some people get jewellery.

I get an asparagus tart.

To be fair… I think I’d rather have the tart šŸ’š

A quick note for the hot weather ā˜€ļø

Our team will be working in some pretty challenging temperatures over the next few days.

As always, we’ll do everything we can to make sure you have a lovely time with us, but please understand that our staff are people, not robots. They may need extra water breaks, a moment to cool down, and service may be a little slower than usual.

Their health and wellbeing will always be more important than getting a plate of food to the table a few minutes faster.

Thank you for your patience, your understanding and your kindness.

We think that’s a pretty fair trade ā¤ļø
