Two Blytheville restaurants — Perkins and Bistro Eleven 21 — were destroyed in this morning's fire at the Holiday Inn complex. The hotel portion of the facility suffered smoke and water damage.
Several guests were evacuated, and no injuries were reported.
Holiday Inn owner Don Houseworth said plans are already in motion to rebuild the new and improved restaurants. The hotel will be back in operation in "a day or two."
Cold and ice hampered firefighters' efforts to battle the blaze. Several other local restaurants donated food, coffee and doughnuts to the firemen.
