To mark the 50th anniversary of Rick Stein’s Seafood Restaurant in Padstow, Sam Harris turned his camera to the lifeblood of the place: the fishermen, growers, and suppliers who have shaped its story for half a century. From the blazing oranges of freshly caught crab to the quiet pride in long-standing portraits, his images trace a deep connection to Cornwall’s coast and community.
On the plate, the cooking is deceptively simple: recipes honed and loved since the beginning, carrying history in every bite. Sam’s photographs reflect that same balance. They are colourful, honest, and enduring, capturing the presence of time in a restaurant built on tradition and trust.
