Originally Posted By FerretAfros It's always exciting that they're adding something new, but it strikes me as a little odd that they're adding another restaurant to the Italy pavilion, which already has two (or is it technically three?), and very little else. I am excited that this sounds a lot more involved than just a 'wine bar', and sound like it will be in a perfect location. It would also explain the construction that was going on in that area when I was there in January; I assume it's still behind temporary walls. Can anybody figure out if it's table service? It would be nice to have a quick service spot in Italy, but this sounds more loung-ey than that. I also wonder what will happen to the little wine shop on the right side of the pavilion after this place opens.
