Re: BOG
Prices will keep ticking up (and staffing ticking down) to compensate for the softer demand. What was once a tough reservation to get is now mostly available for walkup day-of. I will say that I've never had a bad meal there, and the potato leek soup they had last year was absolutely divine... but our check last visit was over $500. We won't be back for a bit.
What really hurt was their shift away from the hybrid QS/TS model it opened with. It democratized the experience a bit, pumped more people through on the quicker breakfast and lunch turns, and protected the scarcity and pricing integrity of the dinner offerings.
Every internal move to fix it has been quashed, so we're left with rising prices and worsening service. Oh well.
BUT this thread is about Tropical Americas... and I'm still quite optimistic in their plans. Some interesting scuttlebutt on why and how Brayden may have been leaked recent art with bad info.
While Indy is teed up to be the standout here, the inbound dining concept is looking very promising. Encanto should be great, too, though from what I can tell they're keeping details quieter than the rest.
