Targeted - Kimchi House and El Guaca
A WOMAN who left without paying in two city centre restaurants has been ordered to repay just half of the bills she racked up.
Marie Catermole left El Guaca, in Colchester High Street, without paying for food and drink she had ordered to the value of £123.40, on November 18.
The 32-year-old returned to the city centre one week later on November 25 when she again did not pay for items she had ordered worth £86 in Kimchi House, Queen Street.
Catermole, of Gas Hill, Norwich, admitted the offences when she appeared before magistrates at Norwich Court House.
She was ordered to pay £104.70 in total compensation to the restaurants and £72.50 in court costs.
