The Tropical Reef Seafood Restaurant
November 10, 2008

Dear Hot-N-Crunchy Grouper Fans:

Cynthia and I would like to thank everyone for the opportunity to serve you over the past seven years. It is with a heavy heart that we must announce, although most of you may have already heard, that we have closed the Tropical Reef and the Naples Cheesecake Company. Too many things were working against us to keep it going. I have many great memories of cooking and serving you all! We had a lot of great times and great food!

The Tropical Reef/Naples Cheesecake and all its patrons and employees have become like friends and family to us. We have been blessed by knowing you all.

Thank you very much for your support.

Sincerely,
E. Bryan “Bubba” Sutton and Family
