I just spotted this in today's paper - looks like there's one last chance to visit this week.

Oceanside restaurant to stay open a bit longer

OCEANSIDE: The landmark Flying Bridge Restaurant in Oceanside has received a one-week reprieve. It now will be open through Sunday.

The restaurant, at 1105 N. Coast Highway, had been scheduled to close last Sunday.

Owners Ron and Jan Des Rosiers, however, said the turnout was so strong for the Flying Bridge's final week that they decided to extend its life a few more days to accommodate all the customers who want to dine there before it closes.

The restaurant overlooks the San Luis Rey River, the Oceanside Marina and the Pacific Ocean.

Ron Des Rosiers said the extended time also will give the restaurant's 37 employees a week's more work.

The property owner wants to raze the restaurant to make room for a Hyatt Place Hotel. –L.S.
