Not sure if this is old or new info. but thought I would share. Got an newsletter for July from Disney and it had some pretty neat info. on the new T-Rex Cafe in DTD. Not sure about cutting and pasting rules here so I will go over some of the highlights which a paraphrazed.

First of all it says that it is slated to open in November ('08).

There will be several life size dinos. outside including a 35 foot long 15 feet high T-Rex and a 135 foot long Argentinosaurus which according to the article said was the largest and heaviest animal to ever walk the earth.

There will be a "towering ice volcanic crater" with cascading waterfalls, lush greenery and foilage (I think this will be outside as well).

Inside there will be several different environments. One will be an Ice-Age room and another will be a Fern-forrest room.

The article says, "In the "Aqua room", you will be able to sit in a jellyfish booth and appear to dine underwater beneath a whole school of fascinating creatures. Just off the Aqua-room, you will be greeted by a giant animated octopus sitting on top of the Shark Bar, motioning you in for a specialty drink and a view of the 6,000 gallon shark tank."

"Finally there will be a Goethermal region. It will have a "Kitchen of Fire" with a 26-foot high wall where you will see lava oozing over ancient geological formations. A two-story waterfall will cascade down, mixing with water and sending up steam."

Sounds pretty cool to me. Also sounds like there will be huge waits for this place. Anyone have any other new info. or construction pics.?
 
I am so excited to hear this. We are going in December and I am waiting to find out when we can book a ressie. We are currently at RFC, but want to change to T-Rex

I'm really interested to see photos of this place. Sounds neat, but I wonder if it will totally overwhelm my kids!
 
When we were there last month, you really couldn't see anything past the tarp around the fencing. I am going back at the end of August, so I will try to remember to take some pictures then.

That sounds really neat! My DS will LOVE it there!! I can't wait to plan another trip when it will be open!!
 
We are going at the end of November and I am really hoping that it will be open by then. Would love to be able to check it out!! Keeping my fingers crossed!!!!
 
We're hoping to go for just a dessert since we booked all our TS meals already. Sounds like a fun place! Hey i just realized, if we go for dessert, it doesnt matter if it's on the DDP or not, :banana:

Hope we can share a dessert w/o it being a problem.

This is a very good idea!! If I decide to add Ohana back in, maybe we'll do this as well!!
