I differ

That’s not pizza.

 

[JoeCamel]

Exactly, operative word being pie

Here's a look at the twinkling lights on The Cake Bake Shop signs from earlier this morning.

I for one am shocked that the signs aren’t just something bolted on that were tossed up to make it look like something had been done.

Walls down as of today, but clearly some exterior work left to be done.

How very Boardwalk-y.

You think this was better?

It wasn’t great (especially the big ads) but it fit the theme better, yes. The new facade could be in any upscale lifestyle center in any town in America.

Theme wise a cake shop does fit better than the ESPN club. But ESPN club always seemed very popular and since it was on the end of the boardwalk it didn’t really clash too much.

What's really missing from this whole area is a casual bar/restaurant you can just walk up to without needing a reservation 30+ days in advance. Yes they have walk-up lists but they're unreliable.

The Bakery definitely works better with The Eiffel Tower!

Made that exact comment this trip. With the loss of ESPN club and big river brewing, there's no place at boardwalk to grab simple pub grub food.

Choices will (sometime in 2025?) be 3 higher end restaurants, and 5? counter service places. There's a massive hole in their food offerings.

Either that, or an equivalent of a hotel quick-service food court - Boardwalk, Beach and Yacht Club don't have a lot of quick service choices, and could use the equivalent of Riverside Mill food court, or The Mara, or something like that.

I disagree.

I don’t see how it fit the theme any better at all.

The ESPN facade was even more generic

Some the menus for the cakes and drinks are up on display as well.
