We were finally able to schedule a group dinner tonight and I read erlier in the week that Place Diner was going to be closing after 30 years of business. So we all headed there for a farewell dinner. It was sort of a neighborhood hangout when we were in high school and college. I lived in its neighborhood for a few years, but only ate there a few times. Everything was just as it was decades ago... same interior, menu and staff!
Palace Diner will be replaced by a Chinese Restaurant, which can't be a surprise to anyone. Flushing's Chinatown is rapidly expanding and has now made it all the way up to Horace Harding. A few years ago, a Key Food across the street from the diner was replaced by a Chinese supermarket. It's early impossible to get Western food that's not a chain restaurant now.
