Due to the success of his market stall, Galton realised his talents also lay in cooking, so he decided to pursue that particular path. Galton then went on to gain experience in London, New York, South Africa and Canada before returning to his native Norfolk to open Morston Hall with his wife, Tracy. Close to the North Norfolk coast, two miles from Blakeney Since opening, Morston Hall has been included in the Good Food Guide for more than 20 years and the restaurant was awarded a Michelin star in 1999, which it has since retained. The restaurant has also become one of Norfolk’s most noteworthy restaurants,

Incredible evening at Kanishka. The food was very tasty and great value for money. Portion sizes were very big and the waiters were so attentive and friendly. I have recommended it to all my friends before and will continue to do so!

Our host, Raju, and the Mohammed, a staff member were super nice. The food was limited for us as vegetarian, but after the food arrived, the taste was so good that we forgot about the lack of options! The “Bhapa Doi” was just exceptional. Thank you.

Opted for the tasting menu and was disappointing the wait between each dish was too long, a couple of dishes some of the food was cold. Such a shame the last time we went to kanishka it was great. Which influenced the decision to go with the tasting menu. They didn’t charge us for the drinks we had because of the issues which we highlighted to them, nevertheless it was still a disappointing experience
