A look back at the week’s biggest news in the restaurant industry from Restaurant Business.

The Week in Restaurants: On this week’s restaurant news discussion podcast, we talk about Starbucks’ ongoing turnaround plans, a new format for Fuzzy’s, and the unbelievable AUVs at Din Tai Fung.

The Bottom Line: Some brands went too far in their bid to cater to takeout customers. Consumers still want great in-store experiences, even if they don’t always use them.

Planting the flag as "fast-casual plus," the Dine Brands-owned chain has a new unit scheduled to open next week that will reveal the brand's ongoing evolution with a step closer to full service. Look for more action in the bar.
