SEAFOOD...
AND EAT IT
It's not just the cream
teas we enjoy while
in Devon. Leanne
Bracey sails into
Salcombe to find out
why its brown crab
is so extraordinary

L

unchtime at The
Fortescue Arms, the
fisherman's pub of
choice, and I've just
been given the largest
crab I've ever seen, by
Malcolm and Claire
who run The Salcombe
Fishwife, a local fishing
business. It's a male 'cock'
crab and weighs 2.5kg.
I'm here to learn
more about 'Crabfest',
Salcombe's one-day
celebration of crab and
lobster, running on 30
April. The inaugural event
last year was so popular
the town ran out of
produce by noon. 'It was
the first year so no one
really knew what to
expect,' Malcolm tells me.
'I think it was Salcombe's
busiest day ever.'

It's Salcombe's largest
crab and lobster catcher,
supplying to some of the
UK's finest restaurants
such as Mitch Tonks'
restaurants, Gidleigh
Park and Hawksmoor in
London. Favis also exports to China,
America, Vietnam and Singapore;
there's clearly a demand for this precious
