Last Night at Oarhouse

TWO days before the year 2009 ended and 2010 began, I got a text message saying Oarhouse will open its doors for the last time after more than three decades of tending bar.

The lot on which Oarhouse stands, which includes the girlie bar next to it that mostly caters to Japanese tourists up until the restaurant Chopsuey at the corner of the block, has reportedly been sold. The bar’s lease, which expired at the end of 2009, was not renewed. (Click BusinessMirror Sunday)
