Mitch Tonks is one of the most respected and knowledgeable seafood people in the UK and an acclaimed restaurateur, chef and author in the process. His Seahorse restaurant has won many awards, his Rockfish takeaway restaurant chain is equally acclaimed.

Whilst there are many hard working, committed and talented individuals working in every area from catching to cooking, there are few who have as much involvement in all aspects of the seafood industry from Catching to Cooking.

Today, we catch up with Mitch again after 18 months where his businesses, based in the South West of the UK have gone through the most turbulent period in history.

As we move into the New Year, we catch up with Vinnie Milburn, owner of Greenpoint Fish and Lobster, who remains positive and excited about the future for his business. Although hesitant and circumspect about what lies ahead, with a naturally more cautious view, his enthusiasm for both his local wild seafood and the emerging range and quality of some of the new aquaculture seafoods, is keeping him motivated and inspired for 2023.
