    i was told no, it will reopen when the pubs are allowed.

    Opening up and serving the chinese food didn't work out.

    So it was the Chinese food from Jade palace upstairs they were selling.
    I was wondering how they got around that part.
    It was worth a go I suppose.

    yeah it was a deal with the jade.


    There was initial grief cos Jade wouldn't open before 1700 and therefore the pub couldn't either.


    then when they gave it a go - they insisted on a main course being bought.
    it wasn't a popular option with the regulars.



    dunno why they didn't try a deal with the other food outlets beside them...


    maybe it's not worth the hassle.
