46th Chat and Eat Night at Cog and Wheel, Camborne
Chat and Eat Night No.46
Wednesday was nothing short of exceptional at the Cog and Wheel , where Chefs Stuart Cobb and Bev from CocoBean Cornwall transported us around the world with their incredible 6-course Street Food menu.
We kicked things off with a fresh, zesty Gurnard and Cod ceviche with tiger’s milk – a true nod to Peru that woke up every taste bud. From there, each course told its own delicious story.
But for me – a proud pineapple-on-pizza kinda gal – the standouts had to be the sweet Puerto Rican plantain pastelón and that fancy take on the British classic: Michelin-worthy cod and chips with pickled cucumber tartare and a bright pea jus. Absolute perfection.
The night ended on a sweet, nostalgic note with CocoBean’s amazing desserts: a Jamaican Gizzada, that took me straight back to my Oupa’s koeksisters, a warming ginger cake and the dreamy dragon stout ice cream.
The entire menu was clever, inventive, and left us satisfied without that unbutton-your-jeans fullness. We were all blown away by the quality and value.
I can’t wait to collaborate with this duo again. Camborne is so lucky to have talent like this on the doorstep.
