Simon Hulstone is one of the smartest, most creative chefs in the UK, and his restaurant, The Elephant in Torquay, delivers an impressive mix of inventive cooking, technical excellence and original creations. We've previously posted on The Elephant (click to read here) so here we will simply leave you to enjoy the pictures of the amazing food that we were served up recently during our visit there during our South West trip.

For visitors to Torquay intending to visit The Elephant, please note that there is both a Brasserie (open throughout the year) and a fine dining restaurant (The Room) which closes during the winter season. Availability of the tasting menu should be made in advance of your visit.
