Abacrombie Fine Food closes

Thanks to Kathy, Hal and David for alerting me to this. (You may have missed Kathy's comment under an earlier post, "Another Good One Bites the Dust.")

I actually heard about it yesterday when Good Companion Ed forwarded this e-mail to me:

I just got a call from Abercrombie telling me that they will be closed until September but they promised to call me again then to lay on your  promised anniversary dinner.  I hope you won't get too hungry before then. 

I called Abacrombie, of course, to confirm and...

...was told, basically, that the kitchen staff had left en masse. The new owners are regrouping and planning to reopen Sept. 1.

I think there's probably a good chance Abacrombie the restaurant will reopen in some form or other because it's attached to the bed and breakfast. Whether it will be as good as the old one is an open question.

We thought something was odd with Abacrombie's. We tried to make a reservation last week, and all we could get was a recording, even when it was around dinner time. They did not bother to return our call.
