The Star Trek Experience itself was fantastic and certainly up to any thing the Disney Imagineers ever dreamt up. However, Quark's Bar was a big disappointment. The characters were fun, but the food was not that great and the warp core tasted more like cough syrup than a drink to be raved about. And I should point out that I'm not biased against mixed drinks -- I've always thought the Kungaloosh at the Adventurer's Club was very tasty as well as the Malibou Macaw at the bar in the Poly.drcorey wrote:the experience, is closing here in Las Vegas. thier most special drink, the Warp Core Breach was given out by the bar before they closed. not as good
as the Pan Galactic Gargle Blaster thou. do not drink this by yourself...
Designed to be consumed by two or more people, the drink consists of 10 ounces of five different flavored rums in roughly equal proportions. Use a little more of the lemon-and-lime rum, a little less of the dark rum and spice rum, and equal measures of raspberry rum and 151. Add to that a splash of Razzmatazz raspberry liqueur (you can probably substitute Chambord, if that's what you have to hand) and some mixed fruit juices.
Then, for the pièce de résistance, add a few chips of dry ice to create the cascading smoke effect. Note: As dry ice is colder than -100° Fahrenheit, it can cause severe skin damage if handled, so be sure to use some tongs. Serve in a large bowl with long straws.
If so, you're a better man than I.

But really, it was (to my inaccurate memory) the first time Disneyland closed a show without replacing it with something better. Stagecoaches gave way to the Mine Train; Viewliner gave way to the Monorail; Snow Mountain gave way to the Matterhorn; Spaceship X-1 gave way to Cir-Car-Rama; etc.
Gotta be some way to bring back the Saucers without triggering an actual alien invasion....
I never saw the saucers myself, but a segment was devoted to them on the Disneyland: Stories, Secrets & Magic DVD, and how missed they are.Zazu wrote:If so, you're a better man than I.

Guess they will have to "Press turbo" if they got them back!!BRWombat wrote:I never saw the saucers myself, but a segment was devoted to them on the Disneyland: Stories, Secrets & Magic DVD, and how missed they are.
The commentary noted that even then, some heavier guests would keep the saucers from floating. Not to burst the nostalgia bubble... but with the, um, thickening of the average guest since then (myself included), it seems to me that most guests these days would firmly anchor the saucers to the ground.
OMG there is something that I have done in DL that Zazu has not done and probably at least 5 times.Zazu wrote:If so, you're a better man than I. I still kick myself for not riding the Flying Saucers even once.
