Moules Frites Night at Perry's, Weymouth

Looking for good food in Dorset? Head down to Perry's for their Moules Frite Night for a while. £8.95 for a meal in a Michelin recommended restaurant is pretty good value.

Mussels with chorizo, garlic, cream and parsley


The mussels are Cornish rope-grown supplied by Samways Fish Merchants. They were plump and juicy. I was pleased to find that every single one was open and none were broken. A good sign they weren't second rate quality dredged mussels. They weren't shy with the chorizo or the cream either.


As you can see, the chips were real chips.

Lemon Creme Brulee with Shortbread


This really was memorable too. Lightly browned caramel that just splintered under the spoon. It was perfect, just the right balance of lemon and cream with a smooth velvet texture.


Vegetarians weren't ignored. The wine was lovely, we shared a bottle of Spanish house red which was Centenello Tempranillo 2008.

I highly recommend this. Considering the utter crap you can get for £8.95 at other places this really is extremely good value for a fantastic meal. Make sure you book in advance, it looked fully booked when we were there and rightly so.
