Disney4me Posted January 9, 2020 Report Share Posted January 9, 2020 We hope you’re sitting down because it’s with heavy hearts and shaking hands that we type out these SAD words… RIP $5 NOODS. You were too pure for this world! The much-beloved $5 Noodles from Tambu Lounge are NO MORE. Haven’t got a clue what we’re talkin’ about? Gather near to us DFB fam, and we will tell you a tale of the golden, glistening Teriyaki Noodles for $5… that WERE NEVER MEANT TO BE! Our story begins at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort. You may recall this Disney World resort which is best known for its relaxing South Seas vibes and tropical undertones. What are we saying? The Poly’s an over-the-top tropical PARADISE! This place screams island oasis, you know, in a soothing sorta way! Polynesian Village Resort Lobby Walking through the Polynesian’s doors today, we were immediately welcomed with the floral scent of tropical orchids and the dulcet tones of Hawaiian music strumming. AHHHH! HEAVEN! Disney’s Polynesian Resort As if on auto-pilot, our bodies made their way to Tambu Lounge where we ponied up to the bar. Once we had the friendly bartender’s attention we inquired about our beloved secret menu $5 Teriyaki Noodles (the exact same ones served at the more expensive ‘Ohana dinner service) — and we were SHOCKED at what we learned! Tambu Lounge Sign Don’t worry! You can still order the Teriyaki Noodles and other secret ‘Ohana menu items at Tambu Lounge, but once you hear the price tag — you may be less inclined… Tambu Lounge Read about the other secret menu ‘Ohana items you can order at Tambu Lounge here! Brace yourself for this… HERE IT COMES! The $5 Noodles are now $9!!! Doesn’t have quite the same ring to it, does it? That’s what we thought, too! And while $5 Noods sounded like an awesome deal (well worth a tasting size portion of ‘Ohana’s delightful noodles!), 9 bucks for a tiny bowl IS a hefty price increase! And$9 feels like a lot for the portion size (to us at least). $9 Noods… Worth it? But the blows kept comin’! While earlier we were able to get ‘Ohana’s signature dessert, Bread Pudding, for $6 (as recently as February of last year) the cost has also gone up! The ‘Ohana Bread Pudding now costs $12 — a 100 percent price increase! ‘Ohana Bread Pudding We were reeling after hearing the news. And while there’s no actual, physical menu we can show you since these are SECRET MENU items, a Cast Member has confirmed these changes. ‘Ohana Bread Pudding at Tambu Lounge We think we’d rather just shell out the $60 and take the Twilight Feast of ‘Ohana eats in our rooms instead! We’ll keep an eye on this situation as it develops, but for now, calm your nerves by subscribing to our DFB newsletter where we’ll tell you about happier times!
