Seacrets will close its doors on Jan. 3 for approximately six weeks as it will literally be raising the road on 49th Street almost three feet to combat frequent flooding that has historically occurred during heavy rain events in front of the main entrance.
“It’s the first time in our history [since 1988] that we will be closed for this long,” said Seacrets owner Leighton Moore. “Five or six weeks is a long time, but the fact that we are doing the distillery project, coupled with the time of year, we thought it was the right time to do them together.”
Seacrets’ new three-story, 12,000-square-foot distillery broke ground in late October and is scheduled to open in the spring, but Moore says it wouldn’t make sense to construct the distillery without fixing the flooding issues that occur in front of the main entrance of the bayfront establishment.

I noticed former Mayor Jimmy arriving (alone) at WORWIC College for today's Lower Eastern Shore Economic Forecast. I guess there were a few OC business owners there too in addition to others looking for a job.

ReplyDeleteWe had the best dinner at Fagers a few weeks ago. The food was superb as usual and the staff is top notch. You walk to the door and someone is there to open it. You walk past the bar and the bartender looks up and greets you. You walk through the dining area and any staff around greets you. The wait staff is attentive and knowledgeable. I can't say enough about them. When it's time to leave you are thanked by every staff member you walk by including the bartender. Someone is by the door to again open if for you and give you one last thank you on the way out.
ReplyDeleteI would suggest anyone with a restaurant or who manages one to make it a point to go to Fagers and take notes on how to train your staff.
And for the worst, visit secrets,,,!
