If that’s the ‘design your own’ pasta station, our family for one will be very disappointed! Our family stays at Pop and at least once per trip we would head to AoA specifically for this dish.Wow, a lot of items have been removed! Those pasta meals seemed extremely popular when I would walk through Landscape of Flavors for a mug refill. I wonder how the guests will feel about it.
Sorry if this was already posted but this is a good summary/cliff notes take on what is Batuu and the backstory to the land, etc
Might all be old news to some but thought it might be useful for people going soon that want to know more about it and its place in the Star Wars Universe

Reviews are starting to pop up for the new Galaxy's Edge: Black Spire novel. So far reviews are pretty good for what many thought would be a cash grab tie-in novel. The book does seem to point to Batuu and especially Savi's workshop potentially playing a key role in Rise of Skywalker
There was a lot of fanfare about the different offerings, customizable items, and many healthy choices when AoA opened, how that was the future of food courts...now its pretty much your standard food court fare. Guess the future wasn’t profitable enough. It’s a shame, the food really added to the theme there.
The average person might not realize it, but they are very similar to a standard military hand grenade. I suspect most people think the "pineapple" hand grenade is still what the military uses, but that's not the case.This really seems like a non-issue to me. If they weren't called "thermal detonator" I'm not sure how they could really be considered replicas of explosives.
Wow. I never stayed at AoA, and have a trip plan for October. Never realized they had such a diverse menu compared to say Pop Century or the All-Stars. I guess it was more of a "moderate" anyone (due to prices). I mean, I have a Little Mermaid room booked (which I understand are just well-themed rooms the same size as the other Values) and paying almost double what I've paid for All-Stars or Pop.Wow, a lot of items have been removed!

I actually decided to buy it and just started it last night. Definitely feels like it will be useful for setting the stage / filling some gaps before Rise of Skywalker
Glad I read Phasma first as it (and characters from it) are referenced
This is really disappointing!
Can anyone confirm ... it looked like it was Vi Moradi (main character from Phasma and Black Spire) that was the hologram in the Rise of the Resistance pre-show video? I've also heard that they have a CM at Disneyland's GE that interacts with the guests as Vi Moradi? If so, that pretty cool how well they're developing the backstory to make GE feel more alive
That's a lot of removals! I mean, how do you get rid of a kid's grilled cheese?
(not whining )
In the case of Sebastian's, the excessive number of times "cilantro" appears on the menu is a much bigger turn-off than one or two appearances of "goat." At least for me, and for the thousands of people with the genetic predisposition to find cilantro disgusting.It might not just be profit (though probably part of it). I was/am in a CBR Facebook group when I was planning that trip and when they reopened Centertown with a much more unique and Caribbean "inspired" menu, about some people in the group really dug the variety, but every single day there's a post moaning about where are all the "normal " foods like chicken nuggets. Unfortunately a lot of guests (not just kids) have really basic palettes and are scared of words like "plantain" or "banana leaf" or in the case of Sebastian's, "goat"... so sometimes it's guest pushback too.
The pasta thing I can't explain though since it's pasta, so pretty easy to please people with and not particularly expensive to serve...
