(Along with other Italian delicacies.)\u00a0 This Disney&#8217;s Hollywood Studios table service restaurant offers up quite a few different flatbreads all for around $13 &#8211; $14.\u00a0 Not too shabby considering you can spend close to the same amount on some counter service meals on property.\u00a0 Offerings include the Wild Mushroom Flatbread, the Margherita Flatbread, and the Carne D&#8217; Italia Flatbread.\u00a0 They all sound great!\u00a0 The restaurant must be pretty good, cause I tried to get day of reservations a few weeks ago and couldn&#8217;t, but other restaurants in the park were readily available.<\/p>\n<p>Menu:\u00a0 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/walt-disney-world\/dining\/menus\/mama-melrose-menu\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/walt-disney-world\/dining\/menus\/mama-melrose-menu\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-32640 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/Pinocchio-Village-Haus-294x400.jpg\" alt=\"Pinocchio Village Haus\" width=\"294\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/Pinocchio-Village-Haus-294x400.jpg 294w, https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/Pinocchio-Village-Haus.jpg 442w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 294px) 100vw, 294px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Best Flatbread in a Theme Park:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Recently, Disney has been playing with the menu at Pinocchio&#8217;s Village House at the Magic Kingdom and to me the changes have been for the better.\u00a0 (Though we&#8217;ll always miss you Figaro Fries.)
