Wanted to say the update was a success. The Scat Cat Club Cafe is constantly filled with guests lining up to get beignets. They are wonderful. You can get a chocolate or caramel dipping sauce with them. The powdered sugar covering can be a bit messy. Mickey shaped beignets as well. Many guests get take out orders to eat them in their rooms or around property.

We will be staying there starting mid October so hoping the refurb doesnt get extended. Glad the special items will still be available.
