Manx kippers on menu for Best Breakfast in Britain

MANX kippers are definitely on the menu at a prizewinning Fylde coast bed and breakfast.
The Rooms, in Lytham St Anne’s, won a newspaper competition to find the Best Breakfast in Britain, after a travel expert compared its fare with anything a five-star hotel could offer.  Head chef Andy Baker said: ‘The secret is in good produce and we have some great suppliers’.
Andy, who also runs the award-winning guest house was adamant: ‘Manx kippers are the best!’ He added: ‘There are several brands available, including some which appear to have been covered in fake tan.

‘We always buy boxes of Devereau’s kippers because they are absolutely delicious and judging by the clean plates, our customers agree’. 

Tina Canipa, a director at Devereau’s Kippers said: ‘This is excellent news, we export a few hundred boxes to Fleetwood market every week of the year. ‘Unlike the UK, here in the Island it’s illegal to add dye or colourant to fish, we start with a good quality herring with a high oil content and smoke them – that’s all.’
