From Crab Shack to Oyster Bar : Exploring Scotland's Seafood Trail, Hardback Book

From Crab Shack to Oyster Bar : Exploring Scotland's Seafood Trail Hardback

Illustrated by Laura Thomson, Anne Kennedy

Hardback

Description

Ranging from Oban to Tarbert, Scotland's Seafood Trail encompasses some of Britain's most glorious coastline.

Here the cold, clear Atlantic waters caress the sealochs and inlets of Argyll and Kintyre creating the perfect environment for seafood in all its variety.

This relatively unexplored coastline has been undergoing something of a culinary revolution over the past decade and is now a showcase for all that is best in Scottish seafood.

The 9 establishments featured in this beautifully illustrated book all serve simple food, simply served.

Langoustines, crab, scallops, oysters and mussels all have such wonderful flavours that they require only the minimum of additional ingredients. And behind each place, there's a story and some interesting characters who have put their heart, soul (and wallet) into it!

Featured in "From Crab Shack to Oyster Bar" are: The Seafood Cabin (or 'crab shack' to the locals), Skipness; The Anchor Hotel, Tarbert; The Hunting Lodge Hotel, Bellochontuy; The Tayvallich Inn; Dunvalanree House, by Carradale; Ee'usk, Oban; Cairnbaan Hotel; The Royal Hotel at Tighnabruaich; and the The Loch Fyne Oyster Bar, Cairndow.
