    New Landscape of Flavors at Art of Animation Resort (press release)

    We got a chance to talk with Michelle Clegg, food & beverage operations manager for the soon-to-open Landscape of Flavors food court at the new Disneys Art of Animation Resort that debuts next month at Walt Disney World Resort.

    Theyre still tweaking the menu, but all sorts of creative new items make this the next generation of Disney food courts. Even burgers are create your own; you can start with a beef, chicken or veggie burger, and then the kitchen will pile on your favorite toppings (say, pepperjack cheese, pickles, tomatoes, onions and lettuce). But most fun are the four onstage tandoor ovens where chefs will bake bread and roast chicken, shrimp, sausage and acorn squash and other veggies – Michelle says that the roasted acorn squash is her favorite dish at the new restaurant. Tandoors are cylindrical ovens that reach very high temperatures and quickly bake, so it should be a grand onstage show for diners. The real treat is naan, a delicious Indian bread that’s slapped directly onto the ovens walls and left to bake until puffy and lightly browned, perfect for wrapping all sorts of delicious food.

    And the restaurants Mongolian grill is another new touch 3 feet in diameter, the chefs will make everything onstage, from challah bread French toast for breakfast to grilled beef and fish for lunch and dinner.
    Theres lot of attention on better-for-you options, so youll find buckwheat waffles and pasta, multigrain rice, low-fat smoothies, egg white frittatas and make-your-own yogurt parfaits. But its all about choices, so there are still pizzas and fries (and chocolate chip pancakes).

    And were excited to see real gelato on the menu, the Italian version of ice cream with less butterfat but bigger flavor. That and a whole menu of coffee drinks, including iced French vanilla, iced mocha, cappuccino, espresso and mochachino. Well carpool to the new resort for our 3 p.m. break!

    Sounds great! Wonder how it will taste though; good execution in a food court setting can be tricky.

    ...hmmm....pretty striped straw in glass; square, oval, and rectangular china...will they be doing away with the paper plates and plastic cutlery then?



    ...just having a bit of fun. Disney now has a lot of experience with food courts, so I expect that this one will be quite pleasant, well laid out and the food does sound good.
