As reported on Monday non-temporary construction fences have been errected between the Rainforest Cafe and Lake Disney, also blocking the bridge leading toward the Disney Village Dome. While it was only an assumption at that point that behind these walls construction work for the first European location of the Earl of Sandwich restaurant chain would commence, confirmation has now arrived.
Fansite Disney Central Plaza posted a snapshot to their Facebook page showing signage by Earl of Sandwich that has been added to the construction fence. The sign also features the first indicator for the opening … which will not be in 2010, as had been hoped for by many fans when the rumors got more substantial last December, but only in 2011. However, it has to be considered that in a first step a part of the side arm of Lake Disney will have to be filled in.
For what i have have heard ,from a friend who works there since opening, a new sandwhich bar will be build.
@tinky: what your friend referred to is the abpve mentioned “Earl of Sandwich” restaurant as covered in detail in our prior posts. It will be a counter service restaurant offering warm and cold sandwiches, soupes etc. with in- and outdoor seating on two levels.
