Disney’s Hollywood Studios has always been, and will always be my favorite theme park, and one of the things that I love to do there is to try as many food options as possible! And that’s a good thing because I actually started running out of new things to try. But Disney heard my cries for more fun items to check out, all listed below!
First up is Sci-Fi Dine-in Theater Restaurant, with a new menu premiering June 2, starting off with Sci-fi Smoked Wings tossed in a porter barbecue sauce with a house-made pineapple and poppy seed coleslaw or the Spinach and Artichoke Dip, a plant-based blend of spinach, artichoke, red peppers, cauliflower, cashew cheese, and oat milk served with house-made chips.
Something healthy is the Black Garlic Caesar Salad, with romaine, grilled hearts of artichoke, chopped Applewood smoked bacon, shaved parmesan covered with house-made black garlic Caesar dressing, and served with a tasty, toasted crostini. I’m totally going to try the Grilled Chicken Citrus Salad with romaine lettuce, spinach, and arugula with rainbow tomatoes, candied pecans, cranberries, and feta cheese topped with a house-made citrus vinaigrette and grilled marinated chicken.
One thing they are known for is their burgers, and the Feature Film Burger – Surf & Turf is a unique twist on a classic with a signature blend of beef and house-made seasoning served on a brioche bun and topped with a shrimp and crab cake, pepper jack cheese, chipotle hollandaise sauce, grilled onions, heirloom tomato, arugula, and house-made vinaigrette. The Pork on Pork Burger is a fan favorite with grilled house-made pork patty topped with roasted pork belly, white sharp cheddar cheese, caramelized onions, cabbage slaw, and a house-made Carolina mustard sauce.
Now my favorite part of this new menu is the Sci-FI-themed desserts! The Red Planet is a delicious white chocolate cheesecake with blueberry compote on a graham cracker tart with a matcha sponge and gold candied pecans. More of a fruit person? Try the Out-of-this-World Sci-Fi Swirl. This dish features a pineapple mousse with passion fruit cosmic swirl and a spiced lime spaceship garnished with space dust and blood orange coulis.
Over at 50’s Prime Time Café, beginning June 7 is an updated menu for them as well, starting with the Jalapeño Popper Deviled Eggs and the Creamy Tomato Soup. For entrees, the famous Grandpa Jean’s Chicken Pot Pie will make its triumphant return!
For dessert, we have the Pineapple Upside Down Cake features yellow cake soaked in pineapple juice topped with caramelized pineapples and maraschino cherries, and garnished with whip cream and caramel sauce. Also available is the Lemon Meringue Pie, lemon curd in a flaky pie shell topped with toasted meringue and garnished with a raspberry sauce. I’m looking forward to the Grasshopper Bar, a mint white chocolate mousse with chocolate chips on a chocolate chip cookie and is topped with whip cream and chocolate chips.
But in all honesty, you HAVE to try the Stained Glass Dessert. Made for kiddos, it’s a whipped pineapple fluff studded with cubes of strawberry, lime, and orange gelatin to look like stained glass.
At Hollywood Scoops, starting tomorrow, try the new Key Lime Milkshake, a Key lime vanilla cream shake topped with lemon-lime doughnut garnished with a sweet graham cracker crumb.
Last but not least, down in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge at Kat Saka’s Kettle is the Cold Brew Black Caf features Joffrey’s Cold Brew, sweet cream cheese, cocoa puffs, and for a more adult version, the Spiked Cold Brew Black Caf has an extra ingredient – Godiva liqueur.
