• It’s a “grab-and-go” space with open seating that will be open during all park hours. No mobile ordering is yet available.

• Ask for a [Dole Whip] swirl or even a “hidden menu” topped with candied bacon bits.
• The main savory meal available Wednesday was an Asian-style bao bun filled with one of three fillings — vegetable, chicken or beef. Menu price: $5.99 each. If you want it spicy, order the hot sauce which is 59 cents extra.
• A sweet lumpia egg roll filled with cream cheese was also on offer, priced at $6.99 for two. Other foods planned for the menu include a “shaken salad” in a cup.
• Jungle Cruise skippers are slated to come out periodically for meet-and-greets with diners.
• The animatronic cockatoo “Rosita” from the Enchanted Tiki Room holds court daily, entertaining people with her jokes and patter.
• Check out the “lamp sellers’ corner” where designers reused the Moroccan lamps from the former Aladdin’s Oasis.
• Fans of mouse ears note that the hideaway is selling plumeria-decorated mouse ear headbands from the Aulani Disney resort in Hawaii for $30 each.
