Disney4me Posted September 27, 2018 Report Share Posted September 27, 2018 It was another beautiful day in Hollywood…Hollywood Studios that is! We found some new updates including progress on Star Wars — Galaxy’s Edge! Disney’s Hollywood Studios We’ll start this update out on Hollywood Boulevard. What’s New on Hollywood Studios Hollywood Boulevard Adrian & Edith’s Head to Toe is closed for refurbishment and access is blocked off to this store from the 5&10 (these stores were connected). Adrian & Edith’s Head to Toe Adrian & Edith’s is where hats and ear hats were sold and embroidered. Adrian & Edith’s Head to Toe from the 5&10 You can still get hats, ear hats, and Minnie ears in the Cover Story Store — also connected to the 5&10. Embroidery of hats and ear hats is also available here. Cover Story Cover Story The seasonal cupcakes at the Trolley Car Cafe (Starbucks) are still the Incredibles 2 and Toy Story Land Grand Opening celebration cupcakes. We’re really surprised to see this with so many seasonal cupcakes and treats popping up on property (including an Oktoberfest Guinness cupcake!) Trolley Car Cafe Bakery Case Over at the Hollywood Brown Derby we caught some dinner menu updates. It looks like they are adding some seasonal flavors to the menu with a Curried Butternut Squash Soup (replaces Sweet Corn Bisque), Duck Cutlets have replaced Duck Two Ways (which included the Duck Cutlets paired with Duck Confit), and the sides that come with the Char-grilled Filet are now Sweet Potato Silk, Chanterelle Mushrooms, Brussels Sprouts, and Sweetie Drop Peppers. Hollywood Brown Derby Menu We also spotted the Brown Derby restaurant menu on the tables in the outdoor Brown Derby Lounge. You’ve always been able to request restaurant menu items while at the lounge, but we’ve never seen a restaurant menu on the lounge tables before. The lounge does have their own tapas style menu. The Brown Derby Lounge What’s New in Hollywood Studios Animation Courtyard The Joffrey’s stand that has been at the entrance to Pixar Place is still there providing coffee, snacks and energy to tackle Toy Story Land! But, we spotted some new construction walls on the left hand side of the kiosk. Animation Courtyard Joffrey’s With the announcements of upcoming changes to this area in 2019 some of this work may be for that transformation! Animation Courtyard Construction Animation Courtyard Construction What’s New in Hollywood Studios Toy Story Land We found a new merchandise cart in Toy Story Land! One more place to get your Slinky Dog Headband! Toy Story Land Merchandise Cart And when you’re done riding Slinky Dog Dash take a peek over the construction wall to Star Wars Land opening in the Fall of 2019. We. Can’t. Wait. Stars Wars Land Galaxy’s Edge Construction Is it starting to look like the concept model yet? Star Wars Concept Model What’s New on Hollywood Studios Commissary Lane Some new items were added to the ABC Commissary Dinner Menu in August. Newer options include the Southwest Barbecue Burger, Shrimp Teriyaki Bowl, Mediterranean Salad with Chicken, and the Vegan Burger. ABC Commissary Dinner Menu You can order the Mediterranean Salad as a vegetarian entree or with chicken. ABC Mediterranean Salad We’re seeing more and more vegan options added to menus in and around the parks. Plus, you can order allergy-friendly options through the Mobile Order system in the My Disney Experience app! ABC Commissary Vegan Burger The Southwestern Steak Fries are also one of the newcomers on this menu recently. These are tossed in chipotle lime seasoning and topped with chili lime mayo and queso fresco — sounds amazing! ABC Commissary Dinner Menu And dessert — there’s that Toy Story Land cupcake again! It is joined by a new-ish Chocolate Banana Cream Almond Crisp dessert. ABC Commissary Chocolate Banana Cream Almond Crisp What’s New in Hollywood Studios Merchandise We found more socks!
