Mitch and Matt’s Big Fish
On Freeview channel DAVE 6th Feb - 6th March 2009

Mitch Tonks together with international rugby star and Celebrity Masterchef winner Matt Dawson are packing up their camper van and embarking on a delicious and experiential fishy road trip around the UK. UKTV Food’s exclusive new series, in partnership with Young’s Seafood, sees the two fish fans immerse themselves in the landscape, seascape and people that make up Britain’s fishing communities, whipping up some mouth watering seafood delights along the way.

Featuring mackerel, seabass, cod, lobster, scallops and the classic fish pie, Mitch and Matt’s Big Fish has something for everyone!

The Seahorse

Fish and meat cooked over charcoal at the Seahorse alone has been enough to get you joining us at the restaurant and giving us a great start but if you need another reason check our events schedule on the Seahorse website; guests such as Mark Hix, Barny Haughton, Joyce Molyneux and Fergus Henderson are all joining the Seahorse for some great events. We're also kicking off the summer with some great music events running regularly at weekends. Subscribe to the Seahorse monthly newsletter to keep in the picture.

Fishstock Brixham
Saturday 13th September 2008

FishstockBrixham was a new Seafood and Music Festival one-day event timed to coincide with National Seafood Fortnight. Mitch was joined by London restaurateurs Mark Hix, Fergus Henderson and Trevor Gulliver to cook up a storm of local seafood to delight the senses.

The aim was to promote all that is good in relation to channel fisheries by cooking up some fantastic local seafood in the company of expert and celebrity chefs. Whilst they provided a taste sensation, local musicians and artists provided cerebral enjoyment.

This all-new International Seafood, Food, Drink and Music Festival raised much needed funds for the Royal National Mission to Deep Sea Fishermen.
