Gone Flying

Got a report from Michael Benton that the Spitfire deli at Winder was closed when they flew over for lunch last saturday. Below is what he reported.

Leslie and I flew to Winder on Sat. to eat lunch. The Spitfire deli was closed. We were told by another pilot there to try The Flying Machine Restr. at KLZU Lawrenceville, GA. Its about 14 miles West of Winder. The food was excellent and the prices were fair. Best of all you taxied to the front door. The link to there website is http://www.theflyingmachine.com/ Joy is one of the owners. I told her to contact you and maybe put a link on the neighborhood blog if you were interested. We had a good time. She told us that she heard the Spitfire will be closing down because the FBO wants them to open up for dinner and they want to remain a lunch restr. So, there lease isn’t going to be renewed. She wasn’t sure of it, but that may explain the locked doors. I will say we got there about 15mins prior to closing. Maybe they just took off early. Anyway, my two cents worth.

Michael.

Thanks Michael for your report. If you found that perfect "$100 hamburger" joint, let me know and I'll add it to the blog.
