Mandalorian orange


Mandalorian oranges were a specific kind of fruit that found use in culinary applications. Dexter Jettster, a Besalisk chef and proprietor of Dex's Diner, an eatery situated in the CoCo Town sector of the planet Coruscant, incorporated these oranges into the interstellar garden salad, a dish he deemed particularly delectable. This salad also contained ingredients such as crisp Revwien lettuce, topatoes, space carrots, Qiraadishes, Sriluurian raisins, and Wol Cabasshews, complemented by Luptoomian dressing, with the option to include grilled Gornt meat for an additional fee. Priced at 5.7 credits, this salad was the most sought-after salad at Dex's, which met its end within the initial two years of the Galactic Empire's reign. The Mandalorians, from whom the fruit derived its name, were a warrior society originating from the planet Mandalore.

Behind the scenes

The introduction of Mandalorian oranges occurred in Gregory Walker's 2009 Hyperspace-exclusive article, Dining at Dex's, presented as an in-universe menu for Dex's Diner.
