They've needed one for a long time. I was told by a cast member that it will open this month, but we'll see! They still have work to do on it.

I'll try to get there as soon as it opens, I'm looking forward to it. The restaurant is huge!

Did you mean, a "rice" restaurant? LOL!

Also... ATT: APers.. we'll get a 10% discount in the table service area of Yak & Yeti, and 15% discounts in the restaurant's gift shop. The Current Mickey Monitor however does not indicate an official opening day... but some birdy told me... "do not expect to eat 'turkey' at this location...because it is asian cuisine"

I wonder if they will stop the DDE at the counter service restaurants now that there is a table service in the park?

Also, a CM across from Yak and Yeti insisted it would be open in November. "It's almost done". I looked at her, I didn't think it looked THAT ready yet. She said "see you in November, yes?"

Hopefully they are working around the clock on it. I mean, if they were that sure they were going to open this month, I'd figure they'd take reservations by now! But they might, who knows?

MGM Studios (I love Christmas, but - it's Halloween!!!!)

Wonderful pics.

This is the second tree pic of the tree I have seen today and its really bothering me (which is weird because I am usually less critical than some). But it is Disney and all...was there no way to taper the size of the garland so it doesn't look so clumpy at the top of the tree? I don't know why but it really bothers me!

I didn't notice that! And my pics this week weren't as good as usual (the way the sun was shining, often I couldn't see what I was taking a photo of - or just a shadow of it). I'll have better Christmas photos as it gets closer to Thanksgiving. I'm just not ready for it yet!

This tree is hideous. If I didn't already know this was a Disney tree, I never would have guessed. I would have thought it were at the local outlet mall or something. Definitely not the quality I'd expect from Disney.

They used to have real trees, back in the day (how long ago was that?) This definitely isn't my favorite Disney tree of the ones they have.

Rix will be a Cafe/Disco. I actually thought of him when I heard the name!

"Rix" kind of looks like it's a Morroccan theme - probably something having to do with the movie Casablanca ... but then why would it be in Coronado Springs. It's a Mexican theme hotel ?!?!?!

The manager made mention of that, they obviously didn't go exactly with the theme of the hotel.
