Was located at the Junction of Carnarvon and Granville Roads. First appearance on a 1958 photo. The building was demolished before the Taurus Building opened in 1978.
"Kaiser" is the German name for "Emperor", so it was possibly a German restaurant.
Update 2020-02-05: according to the advert from 1958 it's a restaurant with "Famous European, American, French & Russian Cuisine". <Read more ...>
A series of buildings on (K)I.L. No.'s 542, 543, 544, 545 and possibly 541. The main building is a large terraced building facing Granville Road, with smaller buildings facing Nathan Road and Kimberly Road. <Read more ...>
