Name campaign at Tampopo and Earth Hour at Hilton

What would you like your name to be today? ​

Asian restaurant chain Tampopo is launchign a 'What would you like your name to be today?' campaign, offering a free course to any customer/friend who visits a Tampopo or East Street restaurant and says 'Hi, I'm (insert name), and I am your friend, can I have a free main course please?' Running on Sunday 1 April until 1pm, the promotion has been launched in response to 'overwhelming' requests by customers. Co-founder of Tampopo, Howard Fox, said: “We already go out of our way to make our customers feel at home, but this is taking it to another level. I have used alias names since leaving school - I started with Hamish, but on occasion I also have crossed the gender boundary which certainly livens up my day and that of my server/friend.”
