Acclaimed chef-patron Shaun Rankin gained a Michelin-star at Ormer within four months of opening this beautiful restaurant. This stylish St Helier’s restaurant (named after a seafood delicacy native to the Channel Islands) was designed by one of London’s leading interior designers and makes for the perfect setting to showcase Rankin’s highly innovative cooking, beautifully crafted menus (of modern European dishes) and his exceptional use of seasonal, local produce.

Make sure to visit the overgrown roof garden for cocktails before heading to the restaurant’s dining room. Rankin’s latest opening is at the new members club 12 Hay Hill in London’s Mayfair – where he is overseeing the impressive dining room and bringing over daily a bounty of fresh, seasonal ingredients from the islands before re-opening next year the restaurant at nearby Fleming’s Hotel.

DRINK: The Blind Pig, 10 Caledonia Place, Weighbridge, St. Helier, JE2 3NG

The Blind Pig: Behind an unassuming door on a street with not so impressive loud and lewd bars lies a quiet little sexy gem, dressed in velvet and wood

The Blind Pig is an intimate speakeasy style bar with a 1930’s inspired prohibition-era décor. Hidden away down a back street in historic St Helier you enter the bar (formerly an ancient storeroom) through a secret door where you can savour unique cocktails, many served in metal goblets and miniature plant pots.

This secret watering hole makes for an ideal destination for after dinner nightcaps and you can even store your liquor in your own private lock-up box with it’s own key, keeping it safe until you next drop by.

Do not be surprised if you find yourself drinking from a tea cup and pouring your concoction from a like for like Nan’s Tea pot
