Hi Brent, Welcome! Another kindred spirit is always welcome and thanks for the info on their annual report.I generally just go to their web sight for info but your right an annual report with freebies would be nice. Good question about the increased space for the same amount of tables as the first Disney site.The Disney will have the volcano on the roof last I heard supposedly with white smoke spewing in the air .Don't know about white smoke spewing inside Trump's Palace. Maybe each major site (500 seat) site will have a unique "landmark".It's worth inquiring about.. I've been thinking alot about their 'Mushroom Bar Only" and if the timings right I think they will be big winners; 1) I don't know if you have seen one in one of the Cafe's but they are cute as buttons.Kids and women will just love them.There is a kiddies menu at the Cafe's and tho I didn't sample it ,it sounded great.If its quality is in line with the adult fare and if that quality is even approximated at the "Mushroom Bar Only"joint,then watch out Mall McDonald's.The kids will love them and the adult's will be able to get some decent food and a drink for a change ina pleasant refuge.(Having a three year old girl I've come to grow weary of whiling away hours at Micky Dee's)This could be areal nice niche at mid size malls,which I assume is the target. 2)They would be like advertizements for the full sizes one and promote Rainforest Cafe awareness while whetting the appetite for the Real Thing at the Giant Outlet Mall.Conversely the full size one's would also promote the Mushroom Bars. 3)They'd sell alot of tee-shirts,etc there.And there's not alot of overhead on tee-shirts.And there are really cool looking tee-shirts. 4)The downside is if a high level of quality was not maintained then thy would be BAD advertizements for the Cafes I don't know if or when they will come to be and once again its worth inquiring about.
