In 1998 however, the restaurant was refurbished, reopening on November 22, 1998 as Hollywood & Vine Cafateria Cafeteria of the Stars <ref> http://thisdayindisneyhistory.homestead.com/nov22.html </ref>. At this time, the restaurant became a character dining experience featuring Minnie and her friends <ref> http://www.florida-project.com/images/guidemaps/ds/disney-mgm-studios-guidemap-1998-december-04.jpg </ref>.
