Brent Knoll restaurant features on TV's 'The Restaurant Inspector'

A restaurant near Burnham-On-Sea was the focus of Channel Five's Restaurant Inspector TV series on Monday evening (June 18th).

Fernando Peire, the director of London's world-famous Ivy restaurant, right, visited Ollie's Restaurant next to the A38 in Brent Knoll, which was previously called Acorns.

The episode focused on how 19-year-old Ollie had stepped up from being the manager to take over the restaurant's lease but, finding himself in too deep, had turned to show for help.

Fernando set up several cameras to monitor the restaurant at work but was less than impressed. He suggested that the Ollie and chef Martin focus on cooking quality, local ingredients and he also offered several ideas to give the place a bit of warmth.

Viewers were told at the end of the episode that Fernando's visit had turned the business around and transformed it into a success. The show can be watched online here.
