Bad news for Morgantown. One of my favorite places to eat is closing.

There was an article in the Diminishing Pest today saying that Flying Fish is tentatively scheduled to close on the 12th. The problem is not a lack of customers, but because increasing fuel prices have drive upon the cost of bringing fresh fish into Morgantown.

There is talk of moving closer to Glasshouse Grille (Flying Fish and Glasshouse Grille are run by members of the same family) or changing the nature of the of the place and possibly the location. I hope that thy managed to remain open in some manner, because we eat at there at least once a week, and I’ll be very sad if we don’t have a place to get fresh fish anymore. (Flying Fish is were I ordered Dad’s birthday crab feast last year.)

So if you’re in town, you’ll want to make sure you make it to Flying Fish as much as you can before the 12th–but keep your fingers crossed they won’t have to close at all.
