Our Secret List chat with Jack Stein on St. Ives Beach during the food festival.
As Chef Director of Rick Stein Restaurants, Jack oversees all kitchen operations across the celebrated family empire that's marking its 50th anniversary this year. Having started as a 14-year-old kitchen porter in 1994, Jack brings a lifetime of experience and deep Cornwall connections to our conversation.
Jack shares his favourite eating and drinking spots, his producer recommendations spotlighting family businesses with deep Cornwall roots and concludes with an unexpected insider tip about Cornwall's emerging bluefin tuna catch-and-release experiences.
With characteristic Stein enthusiasm, Jack provides a perfect blend of established favourites and emerging discoveries across Cornwall's vibrant food landscape.
