Restaurant change
- 13 September 2010 15:4170287noticed the other day that the previously mexican restaurant on the old unwins site in bench street has closed.
there was a sign in the window that "la scala" were taking it over intending to open in 2011. - 13 September 2010 16:4970297Oh wow, I wonder if they're going to have two restaurants in town or relocate from the one they're in? They are definitely worthy of two, smashing restaurant!!
I know a million ways to always pick the wrong thing to say - 13 September 2010 18:3370349I understood that the old Italian, owned by Adnan who owns La Via Romana, closed quite a long time ago.
I'm sure he'll be very pleased to be shot of it - and La Via Romana too, if he can.
If Franco moves his restaurant from opposite the Town Hall, he will probably have much more business as the restaurant itself is larger than the current La Scala - a great restaurant and a great chef.
Roger - 13 September 2010 19:5270356the impression i get is that la scala may keep their present one too.
they have such a good reputation it would be no great surprise to see them expand into two restaurants. - 13 September 2010 19:5670358Adnan told me months ago that the mexican restaurant was closing down and that he would be transfering La Via Romana to the premises.

I understood both were/are up for sale.
Roger - 14 September 2010 20:4870665I agree that Franco should get a lot more business with the new restaurant, excellent location, I wish them all the best for 2011
