No one lives forever. Of this, we are all painfully aware. But when rumors swirled yesterday that Kowloon on Route 1 in Saugus could be closing in as early as some months from now - the collective mouths of the North Shore dropped.
2020 was supposed to be the end of the insanity! 2021 was supposed to bring better days! What will happen to our Saugus Wings, Pu Pu Platters, Mai Tais...
Well, news of the Chinese food institution's death is...somewhat exaggerated.
So while it might not be immediately, Kowloon is officially on the clock. We must prepare ourselves for an undetermined amount of time from now when the Wong family closes the doors, this time for good, and leaves us all wondering where our younger selves will go at midnight on the weekends.
One of the last bastions of what made Route 1 special - Showcase Cinemas Revere, Route 1 Mini Golf, Weylu's, Hilltop Steakhouse... will not live forever.
Hey Prince Pizzeria... don't even think about closing.
