Modeled on the Hollywood mainstay of the same name, that attracted anyone who’s anyone since the birth of the silver screen, the Brown Derby at Disney’s MGM park is a certified blockbuster. A dark rustic dining room feels like stepping into the world of the post prohibition era California, with dark wood and deep crimson lining adding to the allure of this sleek hant. There’s nothing old fashioned about the cuisine however, a chic California fusion menu that’s every bit as modern as the today’s Hollywood A-listers. Pan Roasted Duck Breast and Duck Sausage with toasted garlic grits, natural reduction, and chili jam or Thai Noodle Bowl with Coconut Crusted Tofu, edamame, snap peas, bok choi, and shiitake mushrooms in a red curry broth would certainly raise an eyebrow from Bogarde or Bacall nowadays. The restaurant’s menu is a venerable chameleon, changing constantly to incorporate fresh daily produce and seasonal specials. A fitting testament to one of Hollywood’s most enduring hot-spots the Brown Derby is a bonafide classic.
