Relish cafe, Wadebridge

Last week I spent a few days in Cornwall. I managed a daily trip to the Relish cafe. Had some good chats with the barista and had some excellent coffee. Well worth a visit.

Had a visit from a friendly, familiar face this week... this years Masterchef champion (the amateur cooking competition with the shouty presenters). Great guy and brilliant cook, I can't wait to visit his restaurant.

Er, might be a good idea for someone to tell him it's Origin and not Origon. Somehow he got the name wrong twice but the right url.
Nice to hear about a restaurant that will hopefully put as much care into its coffee, as its food!

Sorry about my earlier mistake on the barista who served me on my recent holiday. I see from the cafe's website it was Hugo.

I'm flattered that a few months from my 40th birthday I can get away with being mistaken for a 21year old capable of passing for a 15 year old!

No need for an apology, I'll go change into my superhero suit and fight a little crime on the streets of St. Columb!

Thank you for coming and see us, it's always nice when people make the effort.

Sorry to spoil the story but when I visited the Relish I did not realise that there were two competition winning barista in the one cafe.

But my wife can't believe that you are nearly 40. Is it your coffee or the Wadebridge air that is the secret of your eternal youth?
