Eddington's of Exeter

I don't think I've done a post for a restaurant yet. This will be my first I guess...

Last month I had the pleasure of visiting a great restaurant called Eddington's just 1/2 hour north of London in Exeter. Their menu is amazing. There a lot of different options for both lunch and dinner from a baked potato and bacon pizza to seafood crepes. And, not only do they offer a great selection of foods, but they also offer seasonal foods and local ingredients as much as possible.

I spoke to James Eddington (the owner) and he was very willing to speak to me about their local fares. For one, their soup du jour is made with fresh local ingredients. The day I was there they had a tomato and roasted garlic soup. It was sooooo yummy! As for seafood, they offer a Lake Erie Yellow Perch served with mixed greens and sweet potato fries. They also have a lightly battered Lake Huron white fish on offer with their fish and chip selection. As a business, they have gone to great lengths to find the freshest ingredients. During the summer they visit the local Farmer's Market and during the winter they try their best to find greenhouse growers for their tomatoes, peppers and cucumbers.

I give them a thumbs up! And, I'll definitely be back for another visit very soon :-)
