New Combo Dish at 50s Prime Time

[n2mm]

We just returned from our 2 week January visit to WDW. While there we ate at many of our favorite places (many times). We ate at 50s Prime Time and was surprised to learn that they are offering a new combo dish. The server said they tried it recently and it was very successful -- he said so successful they actually ran out of chicken that day. They are now offering it as a test but feel strongly about it's success and said it will now be on the menu during the next printing. It is a combination of meat loaf, pot roast and one piece of fried chicken (a breast). Also mashed potatoes, greens, and green beans. He said that there is absolutely NO substitutions. These are some of my DH's favorites, so he got it and was very pleased. This is a large meal and the cost was $19.99. I stuck with my fried chicken meal, but I can see this as a great option for many in our family. (Wanted to mention that the meat loaf is thick, but only a half piece, and the pot roast is also about half a portion. We were surprised to see that the chicken was a large breast.)

What a great idea...sort of a "sampler platter" kind of thing. Sounds yummy!!!

This is a good idea think more places

should offer that sample plate!

Oh, I hope they keep that on the menu for July!

I've always wanted to try the meat loaf and pot roast but can't pull myself away from the chicken! This would be perfect.

Sounds great! But if I add an appetizer (being on the deluxe DDP) and have a milkshake for my drink... and dessert..... they will have to roll me out of there! Usually, I get a sampler plate anyway -- DW and I order something different and share.

Sounds like a good dish to share ~ there by leaving room for an appetiser and dessert!

I think DH would make me change our ADRs for next month if he knew about this!

Thanks for sharing

We love the 50's PT and eat there most visits. I didn't really care for the meatloaf when I had it after it was recommended. But everything else I've had has been great! The milkshakes are the best! This sampler sounds like a way for me to give the meatloaf another chance. Maybe I was there on a bad day? Anyway, sounds like a great meal! Thanks for sharing.

I rather agree with pp. The chicken and pot roast are so good and the meatloaf just isn't on a level with them, but the sampler would be a great way to try again. Now if we could just get another fun server. The last 2 have been total duds.

Wow, that sounds good... I hope they keep it so I can have it in June!! I love the fried chicken and pot roast and I have never tried the meatloaf so this will give me a chance.

Thanks for the info n2mm!!!

I love there chicken so much that I just never want to try anything else, but this sounds like a reason for me to sample other dishes.

It would be nice if some of the other restaurants would test run the "sampler idea." I would love just a little of everything at my favorites restaurants.

Agreed - but make sure to clean your plates!

I agree. There were alot of "airplanes" flying around the 50s Prime Time during our last visits! Always fun to watch, (when it's not you).
