Have the walls come down around this area yet or are they removing them tonight?

Also do you know if anything special was planned today for the first day of the name change to Disney Springs?

There is a name changing moment this evening, and a press preview of Morimoto. So as many walls as possible will be down, but it still lines the construction area, so there will still be some walls.
I am going e spending so much money on food next time I'm in FL.
There won't be a lunch for the first couple of weeks, or the weekend brunch. So opening is from 5pm until further notice.

Weekend brunch? I'm intrigued.

No brunch until later this year.

The peking duck sounds pretty perfect to me.

There's a comment on Morimoto Asia's facebook page that says "No Omakase at this time". That makes it sound like they are planning on rolling it out in the future. It seems like they are trying to roll things out slowly to make sure they don't fall flat on their face. i.e. not offering lunch or brunch to start with, but it will be available in the near future.
I need that chef's coat. Is that a happi?
I love the video. Chef seems so sincere and exciting. Restaurant looks exquisite. Food is tempting. Can't wait to visit.

Same here. Also, love that they had Matsuriza there, just a little recognition of existing Japanese culture present in the parks.
So what's the news on ADRs for Morimoto? I'm going down for the Wine and Dine and can't seem to get anything to come up. It's also listed on OpenTable but I'm not getting any hits.
