I was at Rogue for lunch today - had an incredibly tasty meal! This evening I got a mail from Dave, the owner, via the Rogue mailing list, saying that he's had a great response to the article printed in Scotland on Sunday:
The response was astonishing; phone calls, letters and emails of support flooded in from our customers; our bookings leapt by 400% and our takings for the following week doubled. While we're not out of the woods yet by any stretch of the imagination, we can at least see the possibility of survival. This wouldn't have happened without the paper's help - it was a simple but powerful demonstration of the power of the press. We are very grateful.
He is also announcing a new 'austerity menu', where every dish will be £4, so a two course lunch will be £8. If you've not been, I can only encourage you to - the food is great, the service is great and the ambience is great. Now you have even more reason.
