Big Band Brunch then. I’m flexible.Bubba is prime property for UOR, I could see them building an all day brunch place there to get the morning and evening crowd.

I very much get why it’s not for everyone but, for my family and I this is our favorite Citywalk restaurant, so so many memories there. I can see it happening and I get it but boy do I hope this doesn’t happenLandry's has been struggling for some time and are merging with Fast Acquisitions in hopes to turn around their trajectory. There are rumors of Landry's jettisoning some of it's smaller and lesser performing brands to focus on it's more high end and stable brands like Morton's and Landry's Seafood House. Bubba Gump's is one that is rumored to be in danger along with Rainforest Cafe. If Landry's kills the Bubba Gump brand, I don't see Universal wanting to just flip the location to a regular, kind of pedestrian Landry's. So that could possibly open a location for a retheme.
The merger with Fast should be complete in the 2nd quarter of 2021. We'll see what happens.
I was under the impression that Universal's MO was to avoid third party moving forward?KeKe’s?
I’m joking. I heard brunch and that’s what came to mind. There’s one nearby anyways.I was under the impression that Universal's MO was to avoid third party moving forward?
Ironically Toothsome (of all places) has very good breakfast and brunch optionsBubba is prime property for UOR, I could see them building an all day brunch place there to get the morning and evening crowd.
OMG CRACKER BARRELLLLLI’m joking. I heard brunch and that’s what came to mind. There’s one nearby anyways.
Aren’t they still using The Cowfish in Citywalk in Beijing?I was under the impression that Universal's MO was to avoid third party moving forward?
Their quiche is one of my go tosIronically Toothsome (of all places) has very good breakfast and brunch options

But no screens allowed
A common problem at Universal. Unless you want grab and go there is nothing open early enough to make rope drop. Even KeKe's opens at 7But toothsome doesn’t open till later. Id push for this to be open with CityWalk, like Starbucks or Voodoo.

But, in a way, decisions being made in Beijing speak to their MOBeijing isn't on my radar, to be fair. I only care about Orlando.
Though Cowfish is third party owned, it is run & staffed by Universal. Universal took it over after the initial opening ran into myriad operating problems. So, it's kind of a hybrid,But, in a way, decisions being made in Beijing speak to their MO
Last I knew (and someone correct me if I am wrong) that though The Cowfish is not a huge chain like Bubba Gump or Margaritaville, it is still third party
Putting a restaurant like that in your brand new park does say something about overall intent
It interests me because at the time they added The Cowfish to Orlando, it only had one other location
To me that means smaller, non Universal owned restaurants could be in the mix if they match the type of menu Uni wants
It also may have been a decision by the Chinese partners in the resort.But, in a way, decisions being made in Beijing speak to their MO

UMG is owned by Vivendi, not ComcastUniversal Music Group has a huge stable of music artists. I wonder if there is a creative restaurant/music concept in there for cross promotion.
Bingo. And I'm totally fine with that. Voodoo is technically a chain too, right?It also may have been a decision by the Chinese partners in the resort.
But yea, my guess is any outside vendors brought into CW in the future will be "niche" franchises, not something you see at every tourist place like a Landry's restaurant
