As restaurant names go, The Stunned Mullet is up there with Frying Nemo, Bait and Switch, and The Codfather. And this fine-dining destination is certainly a great catch (ba-dum tish!).

The airy, minimalist interiors keep the focus firmly on the ocean views and impressive wine list, with almost 60 pages of top-notch drops. (Wine ordered by the glass should be poured at the table, though.)

The richness of seared scallops is balanced by blood sausage and jalapeño, particularly alongside a bright-and-light Loire Valley chenin blanc.

Landlubbers might enjoy a dish of Sichuan-spiced quail with sweet tamarind chutney, kombu butter and delightfully retro potato gems, which our waiter dubs “Kentucky Fried for grown-ups”. Fair call.

And have you heard the one about toothfish swimming in a shiitake soup with grilled savoy cabbage, crisp-fried enoki mushrooms and a crunchy black rice wafer? It’s simply fin-tastic!
