Father's Day is this Sunday, and what better way to thank your Dad than with a day of coasters, and a feast fit for a king at Universal CityWalk. Sunday, June 21 is Father's Day, and what better way to celebrate your theme park Dad is with a visit to your favorite theme parks, and some delicious food at Universal CityWalk! Year-round Dad is the one who drives you to the theme parks, holds the bags waiting in lines, he's the parade spot holder, the snack provider, and the one who wants front seat in all the coasters, so this Father's Day, it's your turn to make him feel extra special. This Father’s Day Universal CityWalk in Universal Orlando Resort is offering three exclusive dishes handcrafted just for him. 34-ounce Tomahawk Ribeye at Bigfire Dads are known for being masters in the eating department; sometimes, it seems like their appetites are triple the size of the average human being. With that notion in mind, the chefs at Bigfire in Universal CityWalk saw fit to bring back one dish that has “Dad” written all over it: the 34-ounce Tomahawk Ribeye. This juicy, tender 34-ounce Tomahawk Ribeye comes complete with black truffle lobster mac and cheese, fire-kissed Brussels sprouts, jalapeño cheddar sausage, chimichurri, and a side of au poivre sauce butter. “Everything we do, we try to elevate,” Chef Elvin says. “Instead of just doing a mac and cheese, we wanted to elevate that with some lobster and a little lobster stock to kind of set off that mac and cheese. We added in an au poivre sauce … because it pairs well with both the mac and cheese and the steak.” Breakfast for Dad at Voodoo Doughnut How often are you providing breakfast for your dad? Probably not that often, don’t worry — Voodoo Doughnut has you covered with a special Father’s Day treat that fits the bill perfectly: Breakfast for Dad. This small, but mighty delight is made with blueberry buttermilk, maple icing, a velvet top, and fresh blueberries to make your dad’s day feel all the more meaningful. Land & Sea at NBC Sports Grill & Brew From the land to the sea to your father’s plate at NBC Sports Grill & Brew comes a savory helping of New York Strip steak, massive grilled prawns, roasted potato hash, grilled broccolini, Gorgonzola-truffle butter, and chimichurri.

Games are active, social and endlessly re-playable, each lasting about 1-4 minutes and designed for 2-6 Players. And the game continues beyond one visit: Level99 saves Players’ progress, allowing them to pick up where they left off when they return to any of Level99’s locations for their next visit, providing them with the opportunity to climb the leaderboard and earn rewards.

We can’t wait to welcome our first Players.” “We know our guests love the variety of experiences here at Disney Springs and Level99 is a perfect addition to make even more fun memories with friends and family,” said Debbie Hart, Vice President, Disney Springs. “We have over 150 ways to shop, dine and play and Level99 is adding to the experience in a big way.” Level99 offers Players completely unique challenges unlike anywhere else, as all its games are created, developed and designed by Level99 at its own production facility in Massachusetts. The team continually designs new games that are rotated into the various Level99 venues. A variety of different skills sets and abilities are required across the numerous games, from strength to dexterity to balance to mental aptitude, ensuring there is something for every type of Player. The variety also provides numerous accessible options for Players with mobility limitations, and each game’s entry screen provides skill and accessibility information.
