Television presenter and renowned maitre d' Fred Sirieix checks into the B&B by the sea. Fred may have made his mark working in some of the world’s best hotels and restaurants, but after recently discovering his Irish ancestry, he’s lending his hospitality skills to the B&B team. 

The team set Fred an important challenge to find the best local tipple to compliment a special custard. They visit the oldest licensed whisky distillery in the world before mucking in at the local butchers to test Fred's sausage-making skills. Fred originally trained as a pastry chef, so he adds a certain je ne sais quoi to the B&B kitchen, where he takes on a seafood feast, a twist on the classic crumble and black and white pudding sausages. But Fred knows that no trip to the seaside is complete without a wee dip.
