BradyBzLyn...Mo 2,023 Posted May 7, 2014 Report Share Posted May 7, 2014 The Disney Food Blog has posted an article on the new Star Wars Jedi Mickey Character Dining Meal, taking place at Hollywood & Vine in Disney World’s Hollywood Studios...http://www.disneyfoodblog.com/2014/05/05/review-new-star-wars-jedi-mickey-character-dining-meal-at-disney-worlds-hollywood-studios/ Some excerpts... Jedi Mickey’s Star Wars Dine... this was BETTER than Star Wars characters because it was Disney characters dressed up as Star Wars characters!! Confused? Maybe a picture will help it to make more sense… ;-D ...Ewok Chip & Dale greet you immediately upon your arrival with a couple of hugs and a chance for a sweet photo opp! ...your picture with Chip & Dale is included in the cost of this experience. ...for this event, the place received a bit of a galactic makeover! Once you’re seated at your table, you’ll entertain a few other special visitors who stop by, including Stormtrooper Donald, Darth Goofy (Brilliant!),JEDI MICKEY himself, striking his best Jedi pose! Upon being seated at your table, you’ll notice something in addition to your napkins and silverware. A piece of paper that is red on one side…Red side of paper … and blue on the other. Blue side of paper What appears to be merely paper transforms into a LIGHT SABER! Blue for Jedi Mickey’s side! Throughout the meal, guests are invited to choose their color: fold your paper to show blue if you’re on Mickey and Minnie’s side (the Alliance), or red for Goofy and Donald (the Empire).Cold Bar On this night we ate everything from Tusken Raider Chicken, to Salacious Crumb’s Crusted Pork (an absolute standout!), to Kamino Maple Mustard-Glazed Salmon. Reading the Star Wars names for the dishes was nearly as fun as eating it all! Tusken Raider Chicken Salacious Crumb’s Crusted Pork Kamino Maple Mustard Glazed Salmon Lando’s Lobster and Shrimp Macaroni and Cheese Additionally, guests could enjoy the Jedi Council Carving Station, featuring Dexter Jettster’s Herb-Roasted Turkey and Kessel Run Roasted Strip Loin. Dexter Jettster’s Herb-Roasted Turkey Kessel Run Roasted Strip Loin Other choices included Qui-Gon’s Quinoa and Brown Rice Pilaf, C-3PO’s Cream Corn Spoon Bread, and Solo’s Sweet Plantains. Qui-Gon’s Quinoa and Brown Rice Pilaf C-3PO’s Cream Corn Spoon Bread Yoda Cupcakes R2-D2 No Added Sugar Cheesecake Sugar Cookies Aunt Beru’s Blue Milk Ice Cream sign Aunt Beru’s Blue Milk Ice Cream Darth Vader mini cupcakes When I consider everything about this event: from the meal and variety of foods, to the themeing, to the character interaction and photo opportunities (and, while we’re at it, to the air-conditioning!), I think guests who choose this experience will have many reasons to be pleased with their choice. In other words, “This will be a day long remembered.” A few logistics: the cost of this experience is $55.99 adults and $33.99 kids 3-9, or two table service credits for those on the Disney Dining Plan. The event does not accept Tables in Wonderland; however, Disney Visa Cardholder discounts were honored last night (though blackout dates may be applied in the future — it’s best to check with your server upon arrival in case the discount continues to be honored).

GaDawgFan.....Kelly 799 Posted May 7, 2014 Report Share Posted May 7, 2014 Z would love that.... I'm really hoping they decide to keep it or add a permanent breakfast at a place that doesn't already serve breakfast. It would be such a money-maker. I know DFB is always positive, but that looks like a quality experience. Come on, Disney! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BradyBzLyn...Mo 2,023 Posted May 7, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2014 It really does look like they did a great job with this. And the food looks a lot better than the last time we ate at H&V. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mouseketab.....Carol 1,261 Posted May 7, 2014 Report Share Posted May 7, 2014 Soooo, it's Disney characters in Star Wars garb? For some reason, I thought it would be actual Star Wars characters, Oy! That makes it worth lots less in my opinion. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

That makes it worth lots less in my opinion.This is the dinner crew as advertised. Breakfast is the Villains and those are regular Star Wars characters Quote Link to post Share on other sites
