“ We always try and eat at Cote Du Nord once a year as the taster menu varies year to year. The 2022 menu is the best we have ever tasted. There are so many out of this world delicious elements to each dish. It looks amazing and tastes even better. I cannot recommend Cote Du Nord highly enough - it is a hidden gem on the north coast and I cannot understand why it does not have at least 1 michelin star. Book early to avoid disappointment. Thanks to Chris Duckham and his team for a fantastic meal. ”
