Given that they ruined it.. maybe this will be a good change. It can't get worse.

Jim, I completely agree.

Weren't you just in Maui or are you there now? Either way hope you had a great trip.

Paradiso 37 may open while we are down there. In addition to 37 tequilas, the 37 represents the 37 countries of Central & South America. An interesting concept. While there is still no menu, but the restaurant does appear on disneyworld's website if you know how to look for it

here's the link (with concept art) http://disneyworld.disney.go.com/des...ng/paradiso37/

and here is the text (it is listed as part of the West Side and the prices are $15 - $36 per person; also, looks like they will take rservations)

Paradiso 37 is a new waterfront dining spot opening soon at Downtown Disney Pleasure Island.


This high-energy restaurant and bar serves up unique cuisine inspired by the Street Foods of the Americas. Menu items from North, South and Central America will be featured for lunch and dinner. Paradiso 37 features an international wine bar and a one of a kind tequila tower bar with more than 50 kinds of tequila and a selcetion of signature frozen margaritas.

Come in for a cup of specialty coffee at Paradiso 37 when they open at 11:00 a.m., and return in the evening for festive food, beverages, and entertainment; the restaurant closes late at night.

Oh yeah - TW1 - Note that they are pushing the ability to get their specialty coffee. Of course, you'll have to wait until it opens at 11 AM.

Pi was amazing in its heyday. My girls loved the street parades and the entertainment at both stages. They should have left the AC and CW as these two clubs were popular for all ages and they stayed open late if your inclined to stay up late, so you could eat downtown and enjoy some laughing time which everyone needs especially now. Sometimes change is good sometimes it is not, we shall see.
