Jude Kereama became a TV sensation thanks to his popular appearances on BBC 2’s Great British Menu.

Jude had won awards for his restaurants in both London and Auckland, before moving down to Cornwall. Chosen to represent the South West in Great British Menu, Jude strives to give his customers an experience to remember with award-winning food, extensive wine list and relaxed yet attentive service.

The New Zealander who is half Maori and half Chinese Malay has called Porthleven his home since 2006 and has long been one of Cornwall’s favourite chefs with his harbourside Kota and Kota Kai restaurants.  Kota is fine dining style and mixes Asian flavours with Cornish produce, while Kota Kai is more relaxed and family-friendly version.
