Rumors of Light (ROL discussion thread)

[ArielSRL]

I would guess 2.

I think it will be 1 just like the regular meal. That's how it is for the F! dining pkg. The pkg costs the same credits as the regular meal.

 

[ArielSRL]

Does the H&V F! dinner package have characters? I'm just wondering if they up the charge at TH because of the characters?

Yes, it does.

I'm not sure what's worse… Waiting for the ROL packages to open or the daily news of a price increase at WDW.

I was just reading the resort fee thread and having the same thought!! As I stalk, I keep reading about cuts in staffing, and combined with the uncertainty with planning, it's a downer!

 

[ArielSRL]

Off topic.....DDP prices went up 3% overnight

I think it works out to about $2 a day. Kids prices went up 9% which is also about $2 a day.

 

[KristiK]

Yes, it does.

And the food is excellent. Probably my favorite meal this past November.

Did you mean H&V? Considering it for an upcoming trip

Yes . It was so good lol! I probably gained five lbs from all I ate there!

I haven't been there in YEARS... wasn't impressed back in the day... Is it a new menu or something?! Always willing to revisit...

 

[AngiTN]

Really? How long ago? It was awful every time we went, last time was this past June.
We won't return.

I know a lot of folks say they don't like it, but I've eaten there several times over the past 5-6 years, and have always found it good. Lots to choose from on the buffet.

Haven't been there since it became a character dinner though.

I always use my computer... I find the app to be more... Temperamental at times! I always have the app nearby... Just in case Disney IT surprises me and the app works and laptop doesn't!!

Good tip, thanks! I'll be doing that! My newest (and fastest) laptop is in the "Hp hospital" in KY so I will be using the old laptop-- a hand-me-down from my son who found it too slow for gaming. It's a good old workhorse (serves me well as a swagbucks earner) but can get tempermental at times, crashing browsers suddenly and for no apparent reason.

Good luck may the internet Gods be with you

Agree, it is called Hollywood and Slime for a reason, just dreadful.

We were there the second-ish week in November. We also had one of the first dinner slots. I literally ate some of everything on the buffet. I had heard not good things, but I was pleasantly surprised.

 

[TheFloatingBear]

I was going to add the dining plan for the front end of our split stay - now I'm annoyed that I didn't already do that - grrrr! I thought it only went up once a year in the fall, maybe? Not sure where I got that idea, clearly it was incorrect! this trip better come together soon...

I prefer hollywood and Vile

When they did the holiday meal with Minnie this past Christmas they did a complete overhaul on the food. Apparently they got a new chef and menu. So I have heard much improved things about the foo since November. That being said, sometimes certain buffets aren't everyone's cup of tea. I still feel like HS is sorely lacking in a really great dinner option. With Epcot having so very many it's too bad they can't be dispersed better lol.

So excited to try H&V for the first time during our April trip. We have the dinner Fantasmic package, can't wait because it is Minnie's Springtime Dine and I adore Minnie.

And the food is excellent. Probably my favorite meal this past November.

They could also use another TS breakfast! Wouldn't breakfast at 50s Prime Time be so much fun? I know SciFi had breakfast through January as a trial but it's not offered any more currently. Would have loved to try that!

Sorry

Eh, maybe they were their on a good night.
We ate there in Sept and it wasn't bad nor good.
