Trump's certainly not one to sit around and wait for things, so he's apparently decided to make the best of a bad situation. And it looks like things are finally moving along:
This Is What Happened…
The hotel managed to replace Andrés with David Burke and a BLT Prime (but only after making major concessions, like granting Burke a management deal instead of a lease). Zakarian’s spot, meanwhile, has remained empty — and empty it shall remain, according to Trump: When he was deposed by Zakarian’s attorneys back in June, he admitted other chefs had entertained the offer, but “We couldn’t get them to make a deal. We couldn’t get them to sign a lease.” He added there isn’t really time now “to have a restaurant,” so they’ve moved on to the second-best option: converting that space into a “very large” conference room.
Well, we can't say we're surprised that the two high-profile chefs decided to distance themselves from all things Trump. After all, the guy really knows how to alienate people! We are a little sad for the diners who are missing out on some pretty great restaurants, however.
