Harry's Diner gone? (Brisbane)

I was talking to a few guys tonight, while the kids got punished in footy training, and one of the guys mentioned that Harry's Diner closed up shop yesterday.

Has anyone heard of this? Harry's Diner has become a bit of an icon over the years, for the motoring enthusiasts, it'd be a shame to see it go.

it has been closed for the last few Friday nights with a 'for lease' sign on the window..

While I am not racist it really lost the 50's diner feel when the asians took it over and started serving chinese food.:(

I live in Glen Waverley and it's a Chinese and Indian area now (land is $800-900 in my street now, so young Aussie families can't afford it). The number of great businesses and such that have been taken over by Chinese is massive, and they all go from being great, to mismanaged where the things I liked are removed and brought in are inferior products.

It's a pattern seen everywhere really...unfortunate.

Yeah I was wondering the same myself. Sucks though.
