So baseball player turned restaurateur Steve Finley is sadly having to sell of the BRG Restaurant Group after filing bankruptcy.  BRG is the company that owned Finley’s upscale Flight Restaurant in San Diego.  The business started having problems last year when he handed out paychecks that bounced, oops.

Finley is blaming bad management and a poor economy on the bankruptcy liquidation, but either way, we’re sad that a dream has failed.

Victoria & Albert’s, an upscale restaurant located in the Grand Floridian Resort, is the only theme park’s eatery with an AAA five-diamond rating and which is now banning children under 10 years of age.  Hooray!  No more foul smelling diapers over filet mignons!

The big decision by Disney came about after surveys showed diners were looking for more of an adult experience.  And with prices starting at around $125 per person, I’m going to have to stand by that decision.  Go Disney.

Robert Buchanan, chef & owner, sets the stage with inviting decor, matchless ambience and an impressive mahogany bar ready to take your order.  The menu for both lunch and dinner is complimented by an extensive wine collection of more than 250 vintages.

Enjoy your meal, but never leave without trying dessert, particularly the White & Dark Chocolate temptress, a tower filled with desires and mousse.

Reservations are not necessary, but recommended.

Enjoy!
