LEADING South West chefs launched the region's most prestigious dining publication, the Trencherman's Guide, at Fifteen Cornwall today.
The guide showcases 122 of the very best of the region's restaurants and restaurants with rooms.
Now in its 21st year, the annual Trencherman's Guide is the Holy Grail for the region's foodie residents and visitors alike, guiding them to a unique variety of dining experiences, according to Michael Caines MBE.
He said: "While the region continues to lead the UK in high-quality, authentic cooking, using locally prepared and seasonal ingredients, it's not all about fine dining of the white linen and crystal variety. In the guide you'll also discover excellent food, served with style, everywhere from chic beachside restaurants to moorland dining pubs."
Guests attending the launch at Fifteen Cornwall were treated to a five-course lunch, crafted by Andy Appleton of Fifteen Cornwall, Chris Eden of Driftwood Hotel (Portscatho), John Howe, of Lumiere (Cheltenham), James and Chris Tanner of Tanners Restaurant & Barbican Kitchen (Plymouth) and Daniel Moon of Stone Easton Park (near Bath, Somerset).
This year the publishers have also integrated dining vouchers into this year's guide, enabling diners to save money while still enjoying the culinary creations of the region's finest chefs.
