There's a good seafood restaurant in Burnham-on-Crouch called the Contented Sole - wonder if it's run by the same guy ;-)

And for another spiritual experience of the epicurean kind (especially if you've time on your hands while waiting to catch a train from Liverpool Street Station), Moshi Moshi Sushi on the mezzanine is highly recommended (but don't drink much there 'cause a piddling little bottle of beer will cost you more than two and a half quid). Start off with <i>uni</i> (sea urchin) and work your way through <i>maguro</i> (tuna), <i>ika</i> (squid) and <i>kani</i> (crab) finishing off with <i>unagi</i> (eel). A couple of those each and other little titbits (plus a beer if you really have to) will set you back about thirty quid - but you'll come away smiling and just longing for the next time you're waiting for that train to eternity :-)
