The restaurant was called the Rotunda Inn when I was a kid. I remember going there. It was never called the Rotunda Inn when Charlies Crab took over. People referred to it as the old Rotunda Inn, but it was just Charlies Crab until it burned down. There were all kinds of stories about the ‘Pink Lady’ who haunted the place when I worked there. Apparently she drowned in Pine Lake many, many years ago and has actually been seen. Many of the kitchen crew witnessed lights turn off and things dropping etc. after hours when the restaurant was closed. So, the logical conclusion has always been that the Pink Lady started the fire. I would love to know the official cause, if there is one. Offered by Molly Rozycki
