    Jordan, I was there back in 1997. I loved the RainForest Cafe, and the Mall. It has 4 stories. Plus this mall has an underground aquarium

    We had one just south of Seattle. I went there only once, but it was a really neat experience. Thanks for the memory!

    They shut down the Anahein one in Downtown Disney 😢 a couple of years ago, to build a hotel that never happened.

    Thank you and Katie for spending the day at the Mall of America. I used to live in Bloomington and I spent hours in the MOA. I lived there when the mall wasn’t even built yet. I loved it there but now I haven’t been there in years. I’m so happy that you guys had a nice visit. Thanks again for coming to Minnesota! ❤️😘🙏🏼☀️

    This was so interesting. What a fascinating guy he was. Think I'm gonna try to find his book to read. We loved the Rain Forest Cafe that was inside the MGM at Las Vegas. You are correct about the tree...it was in the middle of the cafe & she spoke for about 2 minutes each time. Fun to see inside the Mall of America too. Thanks Jordan & Katie. 🦋

    Steve's offices are in St. Louis Park, MN, about 20 mins from MOA. You could probably interview him for the channel and learn about what he's up to, or more about his past. He likes to talk, and always has something going on. (Ask him about the old drive-in across the street from his office.) He'll show you some cool stuff in his office, too.

    We had a real nice 2 story one in SanFrancisco in the Wharf area, but it closed down around the time the pandemic started. I went to the one in Downtown Disney a few years back, but I wasn't very impressed with it compared to the one in SanFrancisco

    This brought back memories. There was a location in the South Coast Plaza in Orange County many years ago. I remember going with a friend because we were babysitting her little niece. I got a hearty laugh from watching a lady freak out when the animatronic gorilla began stomping during the show - she happened to have the seat with her back to it 😂 I also remember thinking the talking tree was the stuff of nightmares

    I been there a couple of times when it was in Menlo Park mall in NJ. One of those visits, we took my oldest nephew when he was two years old at the time and the only thing he remembered was that the table we sat at had a monkey right behind me shaking a tree. In his little mind, it looked like the monkey was hitting me in the head with a big stick. He is now 20 and in the Navy and still remembers that. I loved that place.

    I drove to Illinois from Ohio to see my brother graduate from his navy training and at some point stoped and ate at the rain forest cafe out there. It was around late 90’s but I do remember ordering the duck

    Wow had no idea they moved it to the 3rd floor and I'm in MN lol. Great video! And WTF happened to the animatronic alligator in the water feature in the front of the restaurant? It was soooo funny to watch kids cry when it would flap its jaw. Good times. I remember the live fish! Was there a light mist sprayed during thunder time? Sad corporate jerks didn't leave the fish at least.
