During the Dragon Boat Festival in late July, I noticed a new restaurant boat that was about to open at the Intermediate Terminal in the tidal James River – one that was to be run by the owner of Poe’s Pub. Hurricane Irene has put the plan for a restaurant on hold.
See this from the Richmond Times-Dispatch:
Mallory was sitting at the bottom of the James River on Tuesday, a 74-foot-long casualty of Hurricane Irene.
Mike Britt and his wife, Jennifer, devoted seven months to restoring a boat into a floating restaurant. They named their new venture Mallory, after Mallory Square, one of Britt’s favorite spots to watch the sunsets in Key West, Fla., and they moored their craft at Richmond’s Intermediate Terminal.
The city’s newest dining experience, a floating eatery that can accommodate about 90 people and had 17 tables on an outdoor upper deck and another 13 in an enclosed cabin below, was to have opened today.
