I could be wrong but I have heard after the closer Pizzafari has opened with new non-frozen pizzas.

They didn't use frozen pizzas before

I'm still wondering why they do not have a shop to make the basic circular bread and they just expand it using a machine and make the pizza on top.
No idea why would they need to freeze. Do they really sell that many pizzas (vs other pizzerias, like Pinochios's)?

If that wasn't 'frozen' pizza then it had to be, by far the worst 'non-frozen' pizza I ever bought at a profit seeking enterprise. It was school lunch quality. IIRC I saw some special on how they ran the pizza oven - looked more like a factory.

I'm guessing the cuisine (at least at first) at Tiffin's is quite safe from the mishandling of the pizzas at it's sister restaurant. The place needs to start out with a good rep.

Is there an estimate for when this restaurant will likely open? Would it be weird to assume that the opening of the restaurant will be tied to Rivers of Light (i.e. when AK hours expand)?

That seems to be most peoples expectations.

Although the outside seating area looks towards Avatar so it would be possible they keep anything overlooking that area closed for a while longer.

It will definitely be before June 19, as it is included in the same Adventures by Disney package that has Rivers of Light.

Any idea on how much BEFORE? Like May 4th before

It wasn't frozen. It just sucked.

For an additional cost, Guests 21 years of age and up can pack additional provisions with a selection from the renowned wine list—many of which are available by the glass—in addition to a noble assortment of after-dinner liqueurs, dessert wines and specialty drinks.

Maybe I'm reading too much into this, but does anyone else feel this line implies some sort of fixed price?

I would wager more a poorly worded caveat to the dining plan than an overall fixed price.

 

[flyerjab]

Psyched!

 

[flyerjab]

What is the latest rumor for when this is opening? Is it going to be debut along with RoL or is it going to be closer to the summer time?

The page outright says the dining plan won't be accepted.

The page outright says the dining plan won't be accepted.

It's a placeholder page at the moment, I expect it will change once it's open.

 

[Figgy1]

Tiffins is now showing opening on April 22nd! It's also showing dining plans accepted
