A restaurant has been compared to the Titanic after sinking into the water at Lakeside Shopping Centre in Essex. Miller and Carter announced that they will be closed ‘until further notice’ after it started sinking down earlier today (December 23).
The popular steakhouse occupies a converted paddle steamer, but it is currently tilting to one side. Initially staff at another local branch confirmed that Miller and Carter were trying to ‘rectify the situation’. The restaurant later issued a statement on their Facebook page stating the closure and apologised for any inconvenience.
According to the restaurant the closure is due to “structural issues”. Photos and video of the restaurant show it partially submerged in the water.
