Correct. So now the food is still cooked the old way… but removed from the skewers at the grill/kitchen.

Ok, now I get it. The stop at each table allows Covid particles from infected people at that table to contaminate the food on the skewer for the next table.....

Very happy for the changes back, just wished they'd waited until we snagged a ADR lol We found it impossible to get one for our October trip (the whole family was trying at 5:30am onward on the 60 day mark) as it is... Now it will be even more difficult to get one :/

Ohana uses very large skewers that hold food for multiple tables. Pre Covid the server would come to your table with a skewer of meat. Remove a portion from the skewer in front of you, then move onto another table and repeat the process. So skewers with food on them would visit multiple tables.

Can you elaborate on what the issue is with skewers coming to the table? I am drawing a blank.

No. The Brazilian restaurant probably shouldn’t be.

Do you at least get to see them removed from the skewers? The Brazilian restaurant is doing skewers at multiple tables now.

peter11435Aug 18, 2021

The skewers are portioned for multiple tables. Which can’t be done at this time.

TikibirdLandAug 18, 2021

Leave it on the skewer. that's half the experience!

This was bound to happen sometime, reverting back to the original menu. Ohana has a huge fan base. Eventually Trails End and Cape May Cafe will do so also.

The shrimp and steak are skewered, they just remove them from the skewers prior to being delivered to your table now. The chicken is weirdly still bone-in, but on the grill.

TikibirdLandAug 17, 2021

Well, they're getting closer to being back to normal. How 'bout bringing back the Skewers? Our local Brazilian restaurants have been doing that for a while now.

Menu has been updated - The 'Ohana Coconut-Papaya Scones and Cheddar-Bacon Biscuits has been replaced with Signature 'Ohana Bread. Shrimp Casserole has been replaced with Spicy Peel-n-Eat Shrimp. A few drinks also removed. https://disneyworld.disney.go.com/en_CA/dining/polynesian-resort/ohana/menus/dinner/

100%. The steak is still being cooked on the skewers. They just plate it on little skillets before bringing it to the table. They could easily just bring you a second skillet of shrimp, steak and chicken. There is no need for the actual skewers to make an appearance. This was about homogenization to save money and use less staff.
