Slight repost from the blog but I'm pleased with this one. First Chinese takeaway round here I've noticed that are calling out what is good for vegans and what is not. Making some effort instead of saying "it might all have shellfish in it":
There's a bit vegan section, all with "vegan chicken", a fake meat made of tofu and things, and then the guy in the takeaway talked me through all the other dishes that were suitable or could be adapted. That has never happened to me in a takeway like this before. The food was all good and it all felt quite light and healthy too, an unexpected bonus.
So Nine Dragons, Tontine Street, Folkestone, heartily recommended!
They do free delivery and they're on Just Eat and things too.
Happy new year all!
This is my site The FG that I built in a fury of excitement when I first came here sometime in 2004. I'd been a frequent visitor for a while before that but I am technically one of those DFLs you get nowadays. The site was a lot more dynamic with a gig calendar and voting for best venues and stuff, and I know it was a useful reference for those who were moving to the area. Now I've moved out of Folkestone again (though only to Hythe) it doesn't get as much love as it used to. Ironic really as The town is becoming the exciting place we always thought it was just about to. My name is not Gerald by the way, this comes from a pretend newspaper in an episode of The Day Today or something, the Portsmouth Gerald, and how there is a local newspaper here called the Folkestone Herald. Puns like this are GRATE aren't they? Do contact me if you have anything to contribute, email anythign @ this domain, or try @folkestone or @pauly on Twitter.
