Noooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!
Mar. 8th, 2008 03:02 pmWell, we drove through Centralia on down toward Chehalis, watching for the sign on the freeway to let us know the exit for Sowerby's was coming... and we never saw it. We did, however, see the old farmhouse that used to be Sowerby's standing empty by the side of the road. All of the flags were gone, the sign was gone and when we drove back and pulled into the parking lot, it was obvious that they'd already pulled out all the memorabilia (the inside of the place had been practically plastered with photos, postcards and newspaper clippings from England and Scotland).
*whimper*
From what we've been able to glean off a Lewis County community website, Sue (the owner) has moved back to England. It seems rather sudden... and I can't help but wonder if the two weeks they had to be closed because the restaurant was just an island in a really big lake ended up being too much of a financial hit for them to absorb.
But now I'm left really wanting some haggis and, as far as I know, there's nowhere else in the Pacific Northwest that sells it. :-(
