I had the sliders and they were just okay. Disclaimer: I live in walking distance of two good barbecue restaurants so I could be biased. But this just tasted too quick service/fast food

For those at the RH, are the serving sizes pretty good? They look good in the pictures. Just wondering if they the lounge could replace a meal instead of just being snacks/apps? Thanks sooo much for the updates. Looks so much fun!!!

Mini cupcakes are mini, but the perfect size for 1 person eating three cupcakes.

The items are similar to HBD's lounge menu. DD and I can make a meal out of three items to share and a couple of soft drinks (her dinner break from JTA, so no alcohol). But, the only bad part is it comes out to be a $50ish meal.

what's the better deal, Han with cupcakes or Han with pop corn. Both taste good?

Here is @yulilin3 small token of appreciation from the people at SWW her Millienium Falcon glow cube

Also the Yoda cake is so adorable I don't know if I could cut into it

Could you get the drinks that include the xwing non alcoholic (cheaper price) or add the glow cube to one of the drinks that doesn't include it?

I'd like to trade a yoda for a boba for anyone going week 2

I could do this for you.

Just got a non alcoholic drink with the glow cube. It looks like they can put it with any drink.

Ooh, while I remember! Was walking past the Chipwoks around 12.45/12.50ish when Ezra,Sabine and Chopper were escorted down the ramp from the main courtyard/centre stage area. I can't guarantee this always happens, and I don't know what they were being escorted from. They don't do meets, but I happened to get some nice photos as they walked past towards the backstage area.

While I knew the roaming characters moved about freely, I hadn't realised how MUCH. Zam Wessel barely stayed still - in the end I marched right up to her and very politely requested an autograph. She stayed still to sign, then moved me along again before she posed! (Also, I had to ask her to pose, don't just assume she will.) This meet would be VERY hard if you're on your own and prefer a full photo, rather than a selfie. There is a photopass photographer, but Zam was moving so much she got lost in the crowd and couldn't get to me to take the photo.

In line for Ventress around 12.30/12.35, a LOT of people wanted to wait for Ahsoka. CM was lovely, but had to make it clear the line needed to keep moving. I was let ahead by several families, since I was happy to see Ventress, but nobody else was moving forward, everyone was trying to stay back for Ahsoka (meeting with Cody or Rex, can't remember which.) So be careful how you time that meet. Line was very long at that point, with Ahsoka due at 12.50.

Also, I've seen it mentioned here but the Jedi line is slooooow. Lots of great interaction, but also lots of waiting. Try to ask who you might see when you get in line. CM wasn't letting people know about the change, which led to some frustrated families around me who queued for 45 minutes thinking they were meeting Anakin, only to get Shaak Ti (who was wonderful).

Thanks! Ezra and Sabine (and maybe Chopper) are hosting the Padawan Mind Challenge on the main stage starting at 12:15 so that is probably where they are coming from. This is great news for me because we had Toy Story Mania FP+ from 12 to 1 pm before my DD decide she wanted to participate in PMC and when I tried changing our FP+, it told me there was no times left! But if the PMC is over by 12:45- 12:50ish, we may have a few minutes to rush over to Toy Story!

Thank you for the pictures, now we will know what to order on weekend V way on advance!

I like it. I'm not a big mixed drinks fan (I like beer), but this is good.

Thanks very much!

I'm also interested in the non-alcoholic versions of the drinks. Did you get this at RH? What was in it and what was the cost? Thanks and have a great time!
