You can't help but fall for Bath's pretty cobbled streets, gorgeous Georgian architecture, lush parks, boutique shops and, of course, the famous Bath spa. But apart from being a stunning city with interesting history, Bath also appeals to the most earnest of foodies as it has an abundant source of great food producers on its doorstep.

We took a few tips from local epicurean celebrity Richard Bertinet, the French chef and baker who runs the revered cookery school The Bertinet Kitchen. As the BBC's Food Champion of the Year in 2010, his suggestions should be enough to satisfy the most demanding of foodies...

Actually Mr Bertinet lives in Bath! There are so many lovely places here couldn't possibly name them all - not everyone is a tourist going to the Pump Room, lovely though it is. Danielle Rudd-Cowl

A typical "foodie" article. No one can really afford to eat at these high end places...

How about rating affordable establishments and  reasonable places such as Schwartz burgers, instead of slapping his firends backs and pushing up their profiles and profits?

Yet another article of aspiration so far away from normal people it schmacks of "you scratch my back and I will scratch yours".

P.s I live near Bath and work there, and its pronounced Bath as in path not Baath as in barf.

I have recently been appointed Head chef at The beaujolais and and I would not say we are a high end unaffordable restaurant. We are better priced and locally sourced and all freshly made at the restaurant including ice cream which is more than the over priced mass bought rubbish you get in the branded restaurants in and around Bath.

The most famous of all places to eat in Bath is the Pump Rooms, and they are not even mentioned. Has the person that wrote this article actually ever been to Bath?
