Restaurateurs in other cities are realizing that many jaded urban diners eat out expecting to be entertained and want some spice in their surroundings as well. Richard Melman brings a sense of theater to all his Chicago theme restaurants, from '50s-style Ed Debevic's Short Orders/Deluxe to the Italian Scoozi. His new Cafe Ba-Ba-Reeba!, decorated in a contemporary Spanish style with a cobblestone court, features more than 35 tapas served by waiters in punk-toreador coats.

Otherwise, warns Melman, downtime from sophisticated electronics gear that suddenly goes on the blink-as it is wont to do-will paralyze factories. Indeed, the new technology...
