Get a Glimpse into the Creation of a New Restaurant Concept

uWink, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: UWNK - News), an entirely new restaurant concept that combines food, drinks, and entertainment , today announced that its initial restaurant in Woodland Hills, Calif., will be featured tonight on the hit reality TV show, "Top Chef", on BRAVO. Shot last summer before uWink opened, "Top Chef" filmed in uWink's kitchen and "shell" before construction was completed or technology installed. The show provides a glimpse into uWink's "before" and "after." uWink is a new dining and entertainment concept from Nolan Bushnell, founder and former CEO of Atari and Chuck E. Cheese, where guests order food, drinks and media - such as games, comedy shorts and horoscopes - directly via touchscreen terminals at their tables. Patrons can play video games or participate in trivia contests, while they wait for their food to arrive. "uWink is a unique concept, where food, presentation and fun come together to create the ultimate dining experience, which is exactly what the "Top Chef" contestants are striving to achieve in order to win," said Nolan Bushnell, chief executive officer at uWink, Inc. "This episode is providing us an opportunity to show the restaurant before the magic was added and showcases our unique dining concept. "Top Chef" couldn't have been a better fit for our TV debut." The "Top Chef" episode follows the contestants as they prepare a complete dining experience in an attempt to stay on the show to compete for $100,000 and a feature in Food & Wine magazine. There will be a live viewing of the episode at uWink, located at the Westfield Promenade in Woodland Hills, Calif., at 10 p.m. PT, and local fans are invited to attend. uWink, Inc. is a publicly-held digital entertainment company based in Los Angeles, California that develops interactive entertainment for restaurants, bars, and mobile devices. Led by entertainment and restaurant visionary Nolan Bushnell, founder and former CEO of Atari and Chuck E. Cheese (NYSE: CEC), uWink recently launched a new entertainment dining experience called uWink that leverages uWink's proprietary network and entertainment software. The first uWink restaurant opened in October 2006 in the Los Angeles area.
