It's like a soup kitchen here........... How very disappointing When I had the pub on the Isle of Wight I used to serve a lot of sea food..... All local caught stuff in season wiv salads fresh from a local farm and NO chips.Best sellers were:1) A pint of garlic prawns (and the world's best garlic is grown on the IoW) wiv wholegrain bread and salad.2) Plaice stuffed with cheese3) Fresh caught BBQ'd Mackerel on Granary toast4) Squid/Cuttle fish with Pasta5) Dressed CrabI loved going down to the dockside to buy the fish early in the mornings.
