A contributor to the forum posted about a disappointing anniversary meal they'd had at a local restaurant in January. And The Hermitage have chipped in, this story obviously tugged their heart strings like it did mine, but they've actually put their hand in their pocket and are offering the couple in question a free meal!
I must point out that The Hermitage were not the venue for the original disappointing meal, they're just doing their bit for the general good feeling within our town.
Isn't that beautiful?
Check out thehermitagerestaurant.com1) to see their menu, and if it was you that posted originally, please get in touch. If you're the proprietor of the original disappointing restaurant, perhaps you'd like to get in touch too and offer us all a free feed?
This is my site The 'Gerald that I set up in a fury of excitement when I first moved to Folkestone sometime in '04. I had been a frequent visitor for a while before that but I am technically one of those Down From Londons you get nowadays. This site was updated more frequently with a calendar of events + voting for favourite places + things, + I know it was a useful resource for those who were thinking of moving here. Now I've moved out of Folkestone again (though only to Hythe) it doesn't get as much attention as it used to. Ironic really as The town is now becoming the exciting place we knew it was just about to. I am not Gerald by the way, the name comes from a pretend newspaper in an episode of Brasseye or something, the Portsmouth Gerald, + how there is a local paper here called the Folkestone Herald. Puns like this are GRATE aren't they? Do get in touch if you have something to contribute, email anythign @ this domain, or try @folkestone or @pauly on the twitter.
