"Everyone who has grown up in this part of New England has their Kowloon memories, it’s an iconic restaurant,” The Brook chief executive officer Andre Carrier said in a statement. “It is an absolute privilege to be part of this project that will add a new chapter to the Kowloon legacy and create a place where many more wonderful memories will be made."
The Kowloon group said that it was looking forward to combining its existing brand with a reinvented dining and nightlife space.
"Partnering with The Brook offers us an incredible opportunity," stated the Kowloon group in a press release. "We’re so grateful for the love and support long-term patrons have shown us for decades. In a way, this new restaurant and nightlife concept is both a thank you to and a new offering just for them.”
The Brook casino is located on New Zealand Road in Seabrook, New Hampshire. Kowloon Restaurant dates back to 1950 and is located on Route 1 in Saugus.
