Crumpet Shop - Seattle, WA - Temporarily closed

I saw that the Crumpet Shop was one of the featured Roadfood restaurants on the home page today.  Last week, a friend of mine was in Seattle and attempted to satisfy a crumpet craving.  Unfortunately, she was greeted by a sign that is usually reserved for my own travels (can I be rubbing off on others???).
 
"Dear Customers, We close Sat Jan 8, 2011 for EARTHQUAKE RETROFITTING and repairs and cleaning.  We hope to re-open April 1."
 
Just a heads-up to anyone hoping to get a crumpet while in Seattle.  Hopefully, their April 1 target date will come to be true.

I wish Philadelphia had a crumpet shop.

The Travelin Man

We close Sat Jan 8, 2011 for EARTHQUAKE RETROFITTING  

This is obviously code words for just in case The Travelin Man is in town.
