Remy from Ratatouille at Chefs de France
I saw a video posted on YouTube that a little animatronic of Remy is now making special appearances at guest tables at Chefs de France Monday through Friday during lunch and occassionally at dinner. It looked really cool!! Has anyone seen it yet and any word on how long it will be staying?

Now I want to eat there! I love Remy. Maybe we could just get in for dessert or something?

Remy (as he appears at Chefs de France) isn't a traditional character meet and greet- he's actually wheeled around the dining room on a silver tray, accompanied by some cheese and grapes.
Remy is true to life-size, so he's very small and an example of the Living Character initiative- new ways that guests can interact with characters (advanced animatronics, or through experiences like Turtle Talk with Crush)
Remy previously appeared last year at Rendez-Vous des Stars restaurant at the Walt Disney Studios Park at Disneyland Paris where he visited diners at their tables.
He should be around for a while- at least until September I believe.

Ahhhh. Cool. That does sound like a good idea. Does anyone know how he interacts with the customers? Does he talk?

Remy can "talk"- though as humans we can't exactly understand him (he more or less squeaks)- but he's quite adept at performing a Gallic shrug as he's probably saying "je n'en sais rien" and will pantomime his responses like a tiny Marcel Marceau.

Cool...these are the little things that traditionally made WDW such a great place to vacation...I hope that this isn't just an isolated addition, but that they will be willing to fund similar "imagineering touches" throughout the other restaurants in the parks.
There's a great big beautiful tomorrow

Does he make a appearance at a specific time? Or multiple appearances throughout lunch hours?

That would be so cute! Love him!!

We saw this when we were at Disneyland Paris...didn't know they were doing this here.
Now I may have to insist upon a Chefs de France lunch!
I leave in 2 days!!!

I'm thinking of trying to book a table mid-afternoon for desserts. Does anyone know if Remy makes appearances all day, or just at traditional meal times?

This is too cute, too bad he wasn't there when we were there in Jan. Hopefully next time.

I just called to change some dining reservations and asked about this. I wanted to see if you could see Remy any time of the day or if it was just during mealtimes. Unfortunately, Disney Dining had no idea what I was talking about. She even checked with customer service and they had no idea either. She gave me a number to call Epcot dining directly, but it was to order cakes, and you could only leave a message. I left a message, also called the special dietary needs number and left a message there as well in the hopes that someone can either let me know or direct me to someone who does. Wouldn't you think they'd know about it?

I was talking with a friend about this and this is what they found on it.
As of March 9, guests who dine at Les Chefs de France restaurant are being treated to a unique kind of entertainment, allowing them to meet the culinary rat Remy, from the movie Ratatouille. Remy is an Audio-Animatronics puppet who, along with the restaurant maitre d' (a comedic actor), engages guests by performing a series of humorous, theatrical vignettes, using a moving food cart with a silver-domed cheese platter as their stage. Remy can make a variety of noises and comes across as a living, breathing little character with a point of view all his own. The Remy Cart was conceived by WDI Research & Development with support from WDI Creative Entertainment.
Remy can be seen 12:30 - 6 p.m. at Les Chefs de France through September 5, 2009. (Remy can also be seen at Disneyland Paris where he's been entertaining guests since last summer.)
I am going to miss this since we arrive Sept 25

Thanks for that info! I'm definitely going to book a table for an afternoon dessert or something so that we can see Remy. The girls will love it!

My kids would love to see Remy, to bad they other adults aren't big French foodies. Maybe we'll sneak a peak next month.

That's ok, the people who cook the food at Chefs de France aren't either.
