y r a i D e i d The Foo NEWS Appetising new places, people and events Wey to Go 15 T he summer festival season might now be a bit of a blur (then again we did sample lots of artisan cider), but here’s something to look forward to as the nights draw in – the return of Feast Weymouth. Back for its third year, the eight week long event – supported by Weymouth BID – is all about celebrating dining out. It encourages visitors to the town to sample the delicious independent restaurants, cafés and pubs who will be serving special set menus between 3rd October and 30th November. The organisers are promising greater variety and better value than ever before. Each participating venue provides a set menu or offer within the price ranges of £5, £10, £15, £20 or £25 for customers to dine on. The likes of The Stable, Les Enfants Terrible and Ayya are all involved. John McInally, head chef of Shelley’s at The Dining Room comments: “We are really excited to be part of Feast Weymouth this year. Weymouth needs this sort of event in October and November and we can’t wait to get cracking! We think we have a great menu and can’t wait to share it with you.” Luciano Da Silva of The Nothe Tavern adds: “Feast Weymouth is such a great event, and an excellent way for us to showcase our refurbished restaurant! We are thrilled to have this opportunity to let everyone know about our new delicious menu, cosy surroundings and great bar. We hope to see many of you over the eight weeks, we are sure you will love our menu”. Menus for each participating venue will be displayed on the www.weareweymouth.co.uk website.
