Jamie Oliver is coming


Where once there was a lowly Pizza Hut there will now be Union Jacks, a Jamie Oliver restaurant. Pizza Hut always seemed busy, I don't know whether they moved out to make way for Jamie or were closing anyway? The new restaurant is supposed to open in the summer. I will be back to check it out hopefully!

  1. I always wondered why some branches of chains closed down, but not others, in places that seemed more logical. My banking brother-in-law told me that it is the policy in times of recession to close branches where the lease needs renewing, regardless of how well the branch is doing. I never used pizza hut, but it was always packed wnever I walked past.

    1. It could be just that. Like you say it was always very busy in there.

  2. Hey,

    is it definitely going to be a Jamie Oliver resturant? I have heard that it might be a Nando's

    1. I think I heard that rumour too about Nandos. I read the Jamie Oliver thing in the Hampshire Chronicle, let's see who turns up, a chicken or a cockney!

  3. Its bad enough him gobbing on about Sainsbury's every 5 mins on the TV and now he forces his unwanted presence onto the tranquility of Winchester High St. Keep it up Jamie, you prick!

  4. V true whoever wrote that above, but be warned - Jamie is part of the powers that be! Your 'freedom-of-speech' comment won't last 5 mins on this website. Those who suck up to the likes of him will remove it. It's bad for business.
