Our Menu
Snacks and Sides
Adder Moss Chips (Dagobah/Naboo) - Adder moss originated on the muddy, swampy world of Dagobah but adder moss chips come from Naboo, where they are popular with the Gunguns.
*Roasted Teggi Fungus Roots (Antiquity, Senex System, Mid Rim) - Antiquity, a muddy world with shallow seas, is a minor agriworld that depends on growing teggi fungus roots. Try our roasted teggi fungus roots, steamed in an underground oven, and see why they are so popular! Our teggi fungus comes from the South Mudflats of Antiquity.
Burgers
*Patka Meat Burgers (Sullust) - Try our satisfying patka meat burgers. They go great with adder moss chips or roasted teggi fungus roots.
***Sea Mushroom Burgers - Our marinated sea mushrooms are moist and meaty.
*Teggi Fungus Burgers (Antiquity, Senex System, Mid Rim) - Teggi fungus grow in the mud of the planet Antiquity. They make great burgers.
Insectoid Dishes
Drutash Grubs in Omaton Sauce (Sullust) - This is one of the unusual treats from Sullust.
*Seasoned White Worm Stew (Ylesia, Hutt Space, Outer Rim) - While the Hutts like to eat whole white worms by the basketful, we have found chopped up, seasoned, white worms make an excellent stew.
Meat Pies
Dianoga Pie (Pan-galactic) - A surprisingly tasty meat pie.
Mynock Mud Pie (Keriba VI, Mid Rim) - Mynock mud pie was made famous by food stands in Aucellis Park, an entertainment park on the Mid-Rim moon of Keriba VI in the Kalarba System. Although mynocks are silicon-based lifeforms, they can be eaten by carbon-based lifeforms after being properly prepared.
Patka Meat Pies in Meir Wine Sauce (Sullust) - Try our patka meat pies in a delicious Meir wine sauce.
Noodle Dishes
***Kintha Pasta (Mirialan) - Our seasoned kintha is added to fresh pasta for a dish you will always remember. ***Kintha is the Mirialan named for "sea urchin"
*Patka Pasta (Sullust) - What could be better than patka pasta?
***Sea Mushroom Pasta - Enjoy our marinated sea mushrooms as a pasta.
Stews
Rootleaf Stew (Dagobah, Outer Rim) - Rootleaf stew includes only a small fraction of the varied food animals and plants that make up the massive biodiversity of Dagobah.
*Seasoned White Worm Stew (Ylesia, Hutt Space, Outer Rim) - While the Hutts like to eat whole white worms by the basketful, we have found chopped up, seasoned, white worms make an excellent stew.
*Stilepig and Cyanoberry Stew - Unique to the Mud Oceans Cafe, this stew combines the tastes of roasted stilepig with the blue goodness of cyanoberries. Cyanoberries are blue-colored berries that are the favorite food of the arboreal leaf-tail on the muddy and swampy world of Dagobah.
Other Treats
Dagobah Mud Cake with (optional) junk beetles (Dagobah, Outer Rim). Dagobah mud cakes are made out of **special, edible mud that is tasty and rich in minerals. Junk beetles are brown insects from Dagobah. They give an extra crunch to Dagobah mud cake.
Mynock Cloud City, also known as Mynock Coronet City (Twi'lek) - This spicy Twi'lek dish is made from marinated mynock strips, vweilu nuts, and chale and covered in lum sauce. Mynocks are silicon-based life but they can be eaten by carbon-based lifeforms after they are properly prepared.
Panna Cakes (Panna Prime, moon in the Panna system, Tion Cluster, Outer Rim) - These hotcakes from Panna Prime are so popular they are turning up all over eateries in Coruscant, including Dex's Diner. Try them with rich, blue, cyanoberry paste from Dagobah [a non-canonical combination] or with Sullustan Jam. Roll the panna cakes to make roll ups. Panna Prime is a mud-covered moon. Panna City sits a top the mud.
*Roasted Stilepig (Pan-galactic) - Try our stilepig, roasted in an underground mud oven, with *roasted teggi fungus roots or with *cyanoberry jam or wrap a panna cake around them. Stilepigs can be found wherever there is warm mud in the galaxy.
Drinks
Cyanoberry Juice (Naboo swamps) - a lovely, blue juice.
Cyanoberry Juice Shake - This drink is made to our own special recipe. It combines cyanoberry juice with blue bantha milk for a pleasantly sweet drink.
Mud Caf - This is a very thick, muddy version of the ever-popular caf, made from caf beans from the agriworld of Garqi. Add some Trammistan chocolate for a truly out-of-this galaxy drink.
Mudshine - This drink, unique to this cafe, is made from special mineral-rich muds blended with fermented caf bean powder, Trammistan chocolate, blue milk, and sparklemint.
