News Round Up 2018

I believe the other priced options are from the old menu.

Within each menu section, near the bottom of the list, there are a list of options after the words "Storybook Dining" (beverages, appetizers, entrees, etc...). THAT is the new menu. All the other stuff on there must be the old menu.

Oh ok that makes sense now!

I just saw that. Very curious about the RNR "overhaul" listed on that map.

Well, I guess I'm glad my kids don't like meeting characters. Cameras are just tools to take photos, and if you don't have skill, it might as well not exist. Ride pictures are entirely different because you aren't looking at the camera and posing, and they also frequently come out terrible (hands in front of faces).

This is Prix Fixe so I believe the set price is $55 per person. I have it booked for January.

That's right, $55. Thank you!

I’m still a little confused!

me too. We have it booked for late April. Guessing I am going to have to cancel as if there is no steak or cedar plank salmon available that takes two of us out.....

yeah, saw WDWNT posted a story about this, focusing on Rock N Roller Coaster being rethemed:

Though there is a thought that NY Times just mixed up that Disneyland Paris is retheming theirs. That map also seems to alot more land for the Star Wars hotel than I think is accurate

Two ideas that come to mind for Epcot tomorrow. UK attraction and Brazil finally get announced. At least one of those and maybe something more on future world.

more specific details on Illuminations replacement possibly?

yeah, I think those and perhaps the entrance way/"Spine" update

Also maybe the refurb for Spaceship Earth?

and not EPCOT, but wonder if, given the focus on Mickey's Birthday, if we get an opening date for Mickey and Minnie's Runaway Railroad attraction (man, need an acronym for that - we using MMRR?)

There is a MMRR panel on Sunday.

Honestly, I'm a bit disappointed too. When I booked I was under the impression they would have prime rib roast. I see it on the kids menu, but not for adults. I'm actually tempted to ask if I can substitute cause none of the adult entrees are appealing to me. My reservation is for Dec 16, so no reviews will be out yet.

Do you have a link to the statement so people will believe me and stop freaking out?

so I saw it from DSNY on twitter and if you look at the NY Time article they have updated the DHS map so that it no longer has shaded or mentioned Rock N Roller Coaster:
