I was at Lee's yesterday and was told that they are permanently closing their doors on Sunday. It is sad to see another SoWal business hit by these difficult economic conditions.

Are they closing all of their stores, or just the South Walton location? I don't eat much fried chicken any more, but Lee's had some pretty-darn-good fried chicken.
Noooooooooo.....

Moe's closed to. I was told by a few of the food a liquor reps that an average of 4 restaurants a week are closing. That of course is a guestimation.

The girl at the register told me they closing the Redfish Village and Crestview franchises... which were owned by the same people. I'm not sure about the chain as a whole, I think most of their locations are in Kentucky and Ohio - about 150 in all.

Plenty of closures going around. Panama City closed three BlockBuster stores, Moe's and I hear Quizno's at Grande Blvd, Taste of Oz, several Starbuck's, and I noticed that restaurant in front of Office Max, in Destin closed. I don't think it was a TGIFriday's but something like that. Ironically, most of the closures I see are the restaurants which are reasonably-priced. The high-priced restaurants seem to be hanging on. Maybe some of these chains had too much expansion, too quickly, before there was any profit churning.
