Its a Pub 99 now, or so a Worcester area entertainment magazine says ( http://www.thepulsemag.com/Dining/hotnow200310.html ). I've no idea what became of the signs or any decor.
While you are up there, here's another mystery to look into. I shot this forelorn concrete tiki in the rain outside a defunct club in late 2003. It looks like someone gave the sculptor an OoH or Kahiki glass as a model. The building was a bit of a hodgepodge and had some remnants of Chinese restaurant architecture.

I'll try to get more locational data from my friend and post that info. If anyone knows what this place was, please chime in.

I know this place. It's in the part of Shrewsbury called Edgemere, I think. All I remember about that restaurant is that they lost their liquor license and closed shortly after that. Does anyone remember the name? Ugh. Why didn't I visit more of these when I had the chance???
