Schwarze Enterprises LLC, the management of the popular all-you-can-eat, create-your-own pancakes eatery, in August announced it would shutter the restaurant because the state did not renew its contract. The last day of operation will be Sept. 12, said a notice on the restaurant’s website.

However, while the state’s contract with Schwarze expires Sept. 30, new concessionaire Guest Services Inc. will take over the space and continue to operate the popular eatery, Alexandra Kuchta, press secretary with the Florida Department of Environmental Protection, told the Orlando Business Journal.
