A foodie guide to what's hot in Devon
When we started making ice-cream in Dartmouth about 20 years ago there were many similar 20/30-somethings starting up new businesses and a vibrant food scene existed in town. Over the years this has waxed and waned but now the town is definitely on the up […]
As many of us are probably a bit fed up with our own cooking (there is a limit to what you can do with a tin of tomatoes or how many times you can serve an omelette up for tea – unless you’re in Gwen’s […]

What do you buy for the mother-in-law who has everything (including a new kitten) for Christmas? Well, if you’re a selfish pair of buggers like us the answer is a meal for three in a swanky Michelin starred restaurant. I’ve been a fan of Glynn […]
While I can’t say that I have fully embraced Veganuary, we have certainly eaten less red meat this month – I’ve even forgone my weekly bacon sandwich whilst listening to The Archers Omnibus. My experiments with meat substitutes haven’t gone extremely well – to be […]
Last week I finally made it 12 miles down the road to Restaurant Twenty_Seven in Kingsbridge. I’ve been wanting to go for ages and after the recent announcement that they had just won the award for Best South West Restaurant at the Taste of the […]

Having recently been a Grand Finalist in the Food Magazine Awards Best Foodie Pub category and holder of a Gold Taste of the West Award, I was super keen to try The Bear and Blacksmith just down the coast from us in the village of […]
Recently the hubby and I found ourselves locked in a cosy 1940’s styled Private Detective’s office in the middle of Exeter! Now I know what you’re thinking … but no this isn’t some kind of strange fetish we have. For some strange reason someone thought […]
Hi there. I’m Helen, a 50 something food lover and I live in Dartmouth with my hubby and my hound! Welcome to My Delicious Devon blog. Come and join me on my foodie adventures and find out where, what and how to eat the best that Devon has to offer.
Foodie loves : a proper bacon sandwich, Prosecco, fresh summer berries and anything in a pie!
Foodie hates : tomato ketchup, gazpacho (long story) and anything served on a board that really should be on a plate!
Cheers to you,
Helen x
