"The Scottsdale culinary scene requires continuous change to remain fresh and innovative," said William Nassikas, president and COO of Westroc Hotels and Resorts in a statement. I wonder if this Trader Vics is part of a new business model wherein there is a 5-year cycle on eating & dining establishments, particularly at hotels?
