"Born from a 1977 song that romanticized the aimless, carefree life of a beach-town reveler, this hospitality empire grew from a single themed restaurant into a global conglomerate that includes dozens of eateries, hotels, casinos, cruises, retail locations, and retirement communities. The brand sells a laid-back, escapist lifestyle tied to its creator’s persona and generates roughly $1.5–$2 billion in annual revenue, turning a melancholic island vignette into a highly lucrative celebrity-driven hospitality model." - Madeleine Davies
"While reporting there, the coconut shrimp entree listed 1,370 calories next to its price, prompting immediate guilt and a persistent internal calculus for the rest of the day; despite the author ultimately ordering the coconut shrimp (which they describe as delicious), nearly every other entree — from sandwiches to salads to a teriyaki chicken bowl — showed similarly high calorie counts, and the only lower option mentioned was a plate of plain fries at 590 calories, leaving the diner feeling forced to choose between satisfaction and an imposed ‘‘healthy’’ number." - Jaya Saxena
