Celebrity chef Rick Stein could be set to create new restaurant jobs in Cornwall as he looks to open a new eatery in Falmouth. The cook, famous for his seafood dishes, has a long-standing association with nearby Padstow and now he wants to open a new fish and chip restaurant further down the road.
A spokesperson for the chef said: "Nothing has been confirmed as we are in the early stages of planning permission which has now been put forward. I can confirm we are looking at a site in Falmouth and we are in the legal process."
If Stein does get the go-ahead for his plan, the new restaurant would be located in the town's Events Square. Another big name chef, Pierre Koffman, could also be set to create new restaurant jobs. He is currently looking to open a new eatery in London's West End, with Knightsbridge, Mayfair, Chelsea and South Kensington being the possible locations.
