Richard Haward's Oysters / Borough Market

Richard Haward’s forefathers have been harvesting oysters in the shallow creeks leading from the river Blackwater to the west of Mersea Island, Essex, since as far back as 1792.

For the past 100 years, the Haward family have been nurturing the same stretch of Salcott Creek, where the warm temperatures provide the perfect conditions for oysters to fatten.

Richard specialises in cultivating Colchester native and Gigas oysters.

Our Suppliers | Fish Restaurant in Brighton | Oyster Restaurant

We work closely with our suppliers to make sure that every customer enjoys the freshest oysters, served only when they are in season, locally reared meat, freshly baked bread and the finest selection of wines.

The breads are all handcrafted from scratch and baked in small batch sizes using ingredients that are organic and of only the highest quality.

Passione Vino literally means passion for wine and, for over a decade, its founders, Luca Dusi and Federico Brushetta have demonstrated their passionate love for the wine making traditions and culture of Italy.

Although Luca and Federico come from very different backgrounds, they both share a deep and abiding love for wine and everything around it, alongside a particular affinity for handcrafted wines made by smaller, artisan producers.

So, on the 1st of August 2003, Passione Vino was born out of a determined and unshakable philosophy to seek out the undiscovered, rare and traditional wine makers from all over Italy, to promote their expertly crafted products and to provide the most resonant examples of every wine that best reflects every sub-region’s particular culture, geography and terroir, whilst delivering uncompromising quality and taste.

Paella and Oysters at Borough Market - The Girl Next Shore

Borough Market can feel like a labyrinth of food stalls so as to not confuse you, it’s the one in Dragon Court next to Southwark Cathedral (not the one in Middle Road which serves all sorts of curry alongside).

The golden rice glistens in a giant skillet, cooked in delicious stock and heavily peppered with fresh seafood and chicken pieces.

RH oysters are so fresh and so delicious you can have them plain or with just a wee squeeze of lemon to feel one with the ocean.
