La Bougie reopens as Escondido

Doesn't really look like it's up to speed, but it reopened on the second. Good to see these premises in use again. We're visiting on Friday, so will report back. Menu looks a bit pub grub at first glance...

Escondido is Spanish for "Hidden" and is a place in South California, maybe that gives a tip off as to the kind of food that will be served.

La Bougie also up for sale

A slightly more serious 455,000 for this one, though that includes a 3 bedroom flat and it's a nice part of town... Smith-Woolley & Perry are in charge of this:

The premises are situated within Sandgate Conservation Area on the A259 coastal road, within walking distance to the beach in an established retail area mainly given over to antique shops and restaurants. Folkestone town centre is approximately 1½ miles distant and access to the M20 and Channel Tunnel Terminal at Cheriton are within approximately 2 miles. Ground floor restaurant with approx. 50 covers and separate three bedroom maisonette above. At the rear of the restaurant is an 'L' shaped drinks bar. At the rear is a fully equipped kitchen and wc accommodation.
