The Contented Sole is a wonderful restaurant offering first class food and service at really good prices. It has a great reputation, based on its current offering and its history - Prime Minister Edward Heath used to eat there, among many other luminaries. It went through a bit of low patch some years back the the new ownership has got it back on track. Burnham is about half an hour from Chelmsford and is a pretty waterfront town with lots of good pubs and great walks. I ate there a few months back - the pigeon starter was out of this world, and the main course, the Dover Sole, wad perfect. I skipped the dessert - for which I blame my brother (long story).
