Weymouth’s hidden treasure: The Full Gamut

Mon, 06 Feb 2012 10:13:20 +0000

I REALLY don’t think I should tell you about this place. No really, I’m in two minds because nestled behind the Rodwell Trail is the most amazing little café and art gallery and I’m tempted to keep it all to myself.

The Scott Arms: A real local treat

FROM the beer garden of the Scott Arms high above Corfe Castle in the Purbeck hills you get to appreciate just why the fortress was built where it was.

A bit of star power at The Greyhound Inn

CELEBRITY pubs are always a big draw so I had been looking forward to trying Fiona Phillips’ pub in Sydling St Nicholas for a while.

Fish restaurant is the plaice to be

Mon, 12 Dec 2011 10:04:04 +0000

FORMERLY Billy the Fish, Shelley’s Plaice, tucked away off Trinity Street in Dorchester, had no trouble luring my companion and I in for a maritime meal to remember.

FINDING somewhere local that offers good, attractively priced food in an atmosphere that makes you want to linger is like striking gastronomic gold.

A lovely authentic meal at Enzo on the Esplanade

IF you stopped me in the street and insisted on taking me for a meal in Weymouth, then Enzo on the Esplanade is where I’d want to go.

Perfect pizza at the George in Chideock

Mon, 21 Nov 2011 10:00:00 +0000

I LOVE pizza. So when I heard about a wood-fired pizza night on Thursdays at the George in Chideock, a table was booked and a couple of days later my partner and I were heading through the darkness to a pub that I had driven past many times but had never thought to visit.
