And Nathan Outlaw won Book of the Year for his book on British seafood.

Rick Stein said: “An amazing accolade for Padstow and Rock that us, Paul Ainsworth and Nathan Outlaw have won a Food & Travel Magazine reader award.

“Chuffed to bits about the Timeless Classic. It’s nearly 40 years now! Thanks to all the hard working staff over all that time.”
