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!),

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…

… and blue on the other.

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).

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!

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.” icon_wink.gif

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).

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!

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.

This is the dinner crew as advertised. Breakfast is the Villains and those are regular Star Wars characters
