I predict that we have one poster who will reason out loud whether the cheap skate residents will pay Fieri's prices

So, now we know the location is Whisky John's. I wonder if the Whisky John's operators are merely buying into the franchise, or if this a wholly new offering. After all, the news report says the turn-around on the site will take a relatively brief time.

As for this new choice attracting more restaurants to TV, I'll be happy if the competition just spurs the current ones to improve -- the country clubs in particular.
