One of, if not the best, burger places on the gold coast is across from harbour town. https://www.zomato.com/gold-coast-qld/burger-bro-biggera-waters No pretentious bullshit, just really tasty, juicy burgers without fat and oil smearing your hands and mouth. If you can find a better burger under $14 that comes with a serve of proper chips, id invest in the store.

They never had waiters. They were the cafe staff or management delivering the food in a 'launch' outfit. What specialised training in addition to the regular training McDonalds provides do you want these 'waiters' to receive? Are they not just dropping off your food? CYT is still prioritised in every store I've eaten at. The buzzers are still used. Menus on table were a stupid idea anyways when you order at the touchscreen.

I'm a fast pass addict but didnt think it was needed at universal singapore. Asians seem to have an aversion to thrill rides.... too scary? I went in September and the longest wait was for battlestar galactica on the cylon side and it was only 40 minutes. Mummy was 10 minutes so did it a few times and Jurassic Park was 20 minutes. Rest were practically walk ons. The park is pretty small and you can walk laps of it rather quickly , it is well signed with wait times on all rides so you can just skip a ride and come back if you think the line is too long. A whole day here is plenty of time to get everything done a few times over I stuffed up and missed waterworld though which i regret It's a good little park.

That looks pretty good ! Place looks nice and dark too.

all chips, thick or thin, should be hot, crispy and lightly salted. It makes them perfect to mopping up burger juice. If they are soggy..... well.... what's the point? might as well be eating mash.

Nice idea, but given the park's attitude to loose objects it won't fly. Or rather it might, if they let you wear it.

You have a point there lol! I'm converted. Dreamworld. We want plates! You too McDonald's!

This is worth watching. Verrrry similar:

That will really pass a safety inspection

Possibly moving away from "how can they improve operations", what can be done so that more people can experience more attractions? The obvious answer is "buy a fast pass", but screw that - people spend enough money getting into the parks (though Gold Coast parks do seem quite cheap if you get year passes), they shouldn't really have to spend more to do what they should be able to do anyway. I'm now reminded of my last trip to Flamingo Land here in the UK, and waiting 2+ hours to get on Kumali (we only managed four rides on the entirety of that day, simply because queues were do damn long and they were loading fast pass people as soon as they came on, which meant multiple cars left full of fast pass people before us lowly peasants got a go - nearly left the line to get fast passes myself, which I've never bought at any park). But I really like what they do at the Disney parks, or at least my experience of it from Disneyland Paris. Fast passes are free, but limited to what you can do with them. Go to a machine and get a fast pass for a particular ride, which also gives the time your fast pass is valid. Come back at that time and go through the fast pass queue. Made it much easier and meant that, even when it was busy, we could still go on a good few attractions. Plus, as people are going about getting and using these fast passes (you can only have one at a time), ordinary queues are shorter. The only issue (that I see) is that it doesn't generate revenue for the parks.

MickeyD: The one I always liked was casting an eye over the course and noticing that one of the cars was now empty and there were 4 confused kids banked up behind them.
