Today, I went to one of my favorite restaurants for Dim Sum, that I gone to for almost 40 years. We immediately noticed that many things were different, decorations, employees wearing uniforms, aquariums with live seafood. I asked where the owners were since they were always working at the restaurant. I found out that the owners, two brothers, had retired and sold the restaurant. I knew this was coming since the owners had told me they were near retirement for the past couple years.
We enjoyed our first time at the "new" restaurant which kept the same name and menu. There was a refreshed ambiance. Many of the wait staff were still the same. But something was missing. The food was good but slightly different. On this very busy New Year's day, the wait staff didn't have time to chat, which they always did before. And I missed seeing and talking to the owners as I always did in the past.
As we left, I was slightly saddened. I had lost a good friend after many years.
