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.
It was Honest John's. There is a new owner. The new owner has been involved somewhat with Honest John's and is friends with the previous owners. This will be a licensing agreement with Guy.
Some staff is staying, but there will be some new management.
They'll be doing some slight remodeling, they will set up the kitchen so it's effective for the new menu and, of course, will be spending time with training.
They say hopefully 2 - 3 weeks, but that we'll just have to wait & see.
