NOT EVERYONE can afford to visit the tropical paradise of the Seychelles.
But now the Seychelles are about to come to Bournemouth - via a new restaurant.
Seychelles Gastronomy has just signed the lease to run an authentic Seychellois creole restaurant in Bournemouth Square, says Willis Commercial, which is handling the lease.
The restaurant will be run by a husband and wife team who are relocating to the UK after running two restaurants in the islands off East Africa for many years said a spokesman for Willis.
The site was formerly occupied by the Salt n Pepper Indian restaurant and overlooks the Central Gardens.
