New Chapter, a multi-award winning family-run restaurant in Edinburgh’s New Town, will carry on offering diners the Eat Out to Help Out discount beyond the scheme’s end date of 31 August 2020.
The restaurant will retain the same deal until the end of September, even without the Government’s contribution, in a bid to keep all their staff employed.
The popular scheme allows customers a 50% discount on food and soft drinks (capped at £10 per person) and is available on Mondays, Tuesdays and Wednesdays.
With Eat Out to Help Out, New Chapter’s customers have been able to enjoy their super popular lunch menu for as little as £10 for 2 courses and their dinner menu from £14 for 2 courses. The offer has been so much in demand that the restaurant owners have decided to continue it for their customers for another month.
With local, high-quality ingredients taking centre-stage, diners can look forward to tucking in to dishes including: truffle-poached egg, Scottish girolle mushrooms, smoked onion purée, mushroom consommé; sea bream, squid, chorizo brandade, mussel & tomato butter sauce, summer vegetables; and Scottish raspberries, white chocolate cremeux, buttermilk granite, at these low prices for one more month.
New Chapter’s Executive Chef, Maciek Szymik comments, “The Eat Out to Help Out was a lifeline for many restaurants in the country and has proven to be a massive success.
“Thanks to the scheme, we managed to keep all our team members employed and we really want to sustain it for as long as possible. We are very worried that when August finishes, people will stop dining out as often as they do now.
“We would of course love for the Government to extend the duration of the scheme, but even if they don’t we will do our best to keep it running for another month.
“It will inevitably mean that we will be selling our food on Mondays – Wednesdays at cost price, which would not be sustainable long-term, but if it means we will be able to keep our amazing staff employed, this is what we are going to do”.
New Chapter is an independent restaurant in the heart of Edinburgh’s New Town serving quality, fresh, innovative Scottish & Modern European food, always with a twist.
