A restaurant with more than 60 years of history in the Chippewa Valley isn't a restaurant for now.
Woo’s Pagoda in Eau Claire says the people leasing the restaurant said they were closing Saturday night, and then moved out of town. There’s no word on why those people moved. Owner Terry Voss says he's running the business as a night club for now. He says his staff will be cleaning for the next few weeks.
Voss says he'll start looking for someone else to lease the business at the end of the year. He says he hopes it will again be a restaurant, although he says he's not sure what kind of food would be served.
Voss blames a weak economy and the city's workplace smoking ban for the change.
Woo’s had been serving Chinese food at Hastings Way and Brackett Avenue since 1946.
