Revel Officially Calls It Quits; Marcie Turney Opening Bud & Marilyn's in Midtown Village

ATLANTIC CITY — According to previously reported plans, Revel has officially shut down all operations at the Jersey shore, taking four Garces Group restaurants out with it and leaving thousands of people out of work. (Previous reports have suggested that even post-shutter, there remains some possibility of the property being purchased and revived for non-gaming purposes.) [-EN-]

PENN'S LANDING — With Labor Day behind us, we guess we can't rightfully complain about it already being Pumpkin Week at Morgan's Pier. Today through September 7, you can score $10 pumpkin beer flights and pair those tastes with "special menu items," which may or may not contain pumpkin. [EaterWire]

MIDTOWN VILLAGE — Marcie Turney and Valerie Safran will open Bud & Marilyn's, a throwback spot inspired by Turney's real grandparents, right next to Little Nonna's, a throwback spot inspired by a fictional Italian grandmother. Bud & Marilyn's will take the corner space at the Independent Hotel, which most recently housed Rhino Bar. [Philly.com]
