And Turkish restaurant Peras Palas has opened in the former Old George Inn in Rollestone Street.
Opened by a local businessman, the restaurant serves Turkish specialities, including mezze, at lunchtimes and in the evenings.
Meanwhile, work is well underway to transform the former QS clothing store in Queen Street into a Nando’s chicken restaurant. Nando’s is set to open this spring ,and staff recruitment is underway.
