I'm with jjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjj75 on this. The Pearl was too be a different lifestyle to the rest of Qatar. It was if you like, a theme park, and the theme was continental. Take the theme away and they are just another restaurant (of which Qatar already has plenty) only I suspect paying higher rent. They can slash their prices to increase covers, or increase their prices to make up for the lack of covers. But without the theme, who is going to travel out of their way for just another restaurant? Now they are reliant on Pearl residents, and there simply is not enough of them. Watch them fall like flies now, with no one to replace them.
