I need to know where Chrome stores the "Recently closed tabs" file in Mac OS X.

Most likely within the following folder:

~/Library/Application Support/Google/Chrome/Default

There is a file within that folder called Current Tabs that is among the last files written to when you quit Chrome, but it is in binary, so good luck parsing it.

In home//.config/google-chrome/Default you'll find Current Session and Current Tabs. Scenario for me was replacing my system hard drive and, in the process, going from Mint to Ubuntu with Budgie! The old hard drive was available to copy things like Thunderbird mail files. Current Tabs for me had just a few entries in 19 kB, but Current Session had all the URLs for all the tabs I had had open when closing Chrome - around 100 ! Warning: It's not particularly Human-friendly! I got best results when using my favourite text editor - Ultra Edit. Good luck!!

You'll find it here on a Mac:

~/Library/Application\ Support/Google/Chrome/Default/Current\ Tabs\
