BLOOMINGTON, MINN. -- Levy Restaurants has been retained by the Nickelodeon network to do all foodservice at Nickelodeon Universe, a newly rebranded indoor theme park scheduled to debut early next year at the Mall of America here.

Chicago-based Levy will service everything from carts to catering and emphasize good nutrition for children, according to the companies' statement. The foodservice component is intended to complement Nickelodeon's five-year-old health and wellness campaign, Let's Just Play. Levy officials have said they would incorporate organic, naturally raised and locally grown foods into the menu offerings.

Levy's sports and entertainment division portfolio includes accounts at Lambeau Field in Green Bay, Wis.; Staples Center in Los Angeles; and American Airlines Arena in Miami.

Nickelodeon is an arm of Viacom International Inc.
