I spoke with the Chef/Restaurantuer behind it the other week. He has done his homework, and determined, that it will not work "in" The Villages for a few reasons... Primarily, he feels he needs a "neutral" playing field..(Fruitland Park, Wildwood, ect). Locating an establishment of the caliber that's proposed, in The Villages, is a Liability due to the fact that a majority of it's business(for reasons mentioned above) would need to be supported by "non-villagers" who, for the most part, would rather starve to death than enter the Bubble. But as I mentioned, he plans on having it in close proximity to the Villages, but not glof car accessable...More will be revealed

Peace and Love
This almost makes it sound like the surrounding area around TV is more affluent. Not sure that is the case. Good luck to him!
