My husband and son shared the Shrimp Lo Mein, always a favorite of theirs

http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc234/hawc2000/Disney8-29-2008037.jpg
I ordered a chicken nugget basket with chili cheese fries. I'm really not sure what all the fuss is over them changing the chicken from strips to nuggets. I thought they were really good!!

I really was sad to see some of my favorite desserts gone. Pop removed the Lunar Cheesecake a few years ago, then went the Twinkie Tiramisu. Most desserts are standard now, but what can you do?

Coming up tomorrow.........Lunch at Cosmic Rays and Dinner at LeCellier

I know what you mean about the nuggets/strips. Although, until I'd had them I was wary - chicken nuggets here in the UK are not great. But the nuggets at WDW were like strips to us anyway!

Looking forward to your reviews!

Hi there!!! Lunar cheese cake( I thought there was something inside the cheesecake too, but I might be wrong on that one) was a slice of cheesecake with chocolate on top with a few marshmallows!! Yum. The one with all the colors is Tye Dye cheesecake, and that is still there!
Thanks and anxiously awaiting more.....!

Hello! I'll have day 2 updated later today!

What are nuggets like in the UK? I always am facinated by how food can be so different in other countries with something as simple as a chicken nugget LOL

Ok everyone! Day 2! We had a quick breakfast in our room and headed out towards MK! Around lunch time we found ourselves by Cosmic Rays with empty bellys:cool1: So in we went!!

My DS decided on the Chicken nugget kids meal what a big shocker there:lmao: . These came with Eclipse Chips. They were basically homemade chips with I think a parmasan cheese on them. YUMMY!! My DS really wasn't fond of them though, go figure
http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc234/hawc2000/8-30-08033.jpg
My oldest DS and myself went with the Turkey Bacon Wrap and Eclipse chips. We both liked the wrap and chips. There was quite a bit of food there, we actually could have shared it. For dessert we had the carrot cake and chocolate cake
http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc234/hawc2000/8-30-08031.jpg
My DH went with the chicken and rib combo. The ribs are hiding under the chicken. I didn't realize they were there till he had tore into them:rolleyes1 He shared it with our 2 year old who loved it, so that is saying alot! The green beans were really yummy BTW. He also had a carrot cake for dessert!
http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc234/hawc2000/8-30-08032.jpg
Here are a few of my DS enjoying the carrot cake frosting. I hope you don't mind

Chicken nuggets in the UK are usually small, roundish things with chopped meat rather than whole pieces of breast meat. Like the general McDonalds chicken nuggets. Some times you can find some decent ones but it's a quite rare - unlike WDW!

I have to say - your DS is simply adorable!

Ok, on to LeCellier!! I was a little bit worried with all of the negative reviews lately. But I worried for nothing! We had a fantastic dinner there! Both my DS's and I started out with Chocolate Raspberry shakes. They were heaven, let me tell you. My DH had the Mango smoothie, very good and refreshing on a hot day!!
http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc234/hawc2000/8-30-08040.jpg
http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc234/hawc2000/8-30-08042.jpg
Then came the yummy breadsticks!! We had to save some out for soup dipping!!
http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc234/hawc2000/8-30-08041.jpg
My husband and DS decided to try the Chefs favorites. They both choose the Canadian Cheddar Cheese Soup, Herb-crusted Prime Rib, and Maple Crème Brulee. I didn't like the potatoes, but the prime rib was fantastic!!
http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc234/hawc2000/8-30-08043.jpg
http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc234/hawc2000/8-30-08044.jpg
I went with my favorite from last year.... The Mushroom Filet. It again was so yummy!!

http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc234/hawc2000/8-30-08045.jpg
My middle DS choose the hotdog with the cheese soup. I forgot to take a picture of his soup, but he loved it! The hotdog not so much. He said the hot dog was dry along with the bun:confused3 . I want to say he didn't like it last year either, but he was being a block head and wouldn't listen:rolleyes1 . Oh well. I forgot to take a picture of his ice cream. He ended up sharing the creme brulee with his brother anyways after clearing his ice cream. The baby kind of ate off all our plates that night.

http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc234/hawc2000/8-30-08046.jpg
Now for the dessert.........................

http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc234/hawc2000/8-30-08047.jpg

What more can I say. This has to be one of my favorite Disney desserts. I never had creme brulee until Disney and I'll order it anywhere I can. Well I think thats it for day 2.

Coming up tomorrow Lunch at Sunshine Seasons and dinner at Ohanas!

I was so happy to see the reviews of LeCellier. I have wanted to eat there so badly and reserved it for this trip, but then I have been hearing the bad reviews so I was wondering (I know everyone's preferences are different, so I was still planning on going, but it is nice to hear a good review). Thanks for sharing. My plan was for the mushroom fillet and chocolate moose, but the chocolate raspberry milkshake sounds great, was that allowed on the dining plan? I know my oldest daughter will get the creme brule, I will have to show her this picture. I look forward to more...

The drinks were included on the DP, but last year we were told no. I'm wondering if its the server you get or if they just have changed the rules:confused3 . Our server was Alicia, and she was wonderful!! One word of advise on the chocolate moose, while its very very good, I choose that last year, it is very rich. I just could not finish it. I don't think the creme brulee is as rich. If I look hard enough, I might be able to find a pic of it from last year if you are interested.

I am so happy to hear some good news about Le Cellier, we are heading there next month! I can't wait to go!
I'm sure you will be happy with it!!

09-13-2008, 11:43 PM

Thanks, I have seen a photo on DIS before. Thanks for the tip about the richness, but I think my DDs (9 and 6) will love it, so I was mostly ordering it for them. I will probably just eat some of their ice cream so they can share it as I know they will love it. I look forward to more...

They do still have the Tye Dye cheesecake !! The shrimp Lo Mein is what I plan on trying this time if I can tear myself away from thechicken Alfredo!!!

Hello, and welcome to my dining review!! Pop just isn't the same without the Twinkie Tiramisu my DH says:lmao: . The shrimp Lo Mein is very yummy, I'm sure you'll love it! I keep saying I want to try the Chicken Alfredo, but never get around to it. I just might have to make a trip over next year to give it a whirl:goodvibes .

Hello there!! I'm sure you will be happy with those choices next year!! That chocolate moose is sooooo good but so very rich!

Great review of Le Cellier - I really must get back there one day. Trouble si it's so hard to get an ADR there now.

I am actually thinking of passing up on this one next year to try somewhere else. The problem is its one of our favorites and I hate to miss it, but we need to broaden our options a bit instead of just going back to the same places everytime.

We are going to Le Cellier for the first time next week, oh my goodness I can't wait after seeing these pics! YUM! :cool1:

You'll be happy!!! Enjoy your trip next week!!!

great reviews, nice pictures (cute family, BTW.)

We loved LeCellier in May...so glad you enjoyed it, too.

I think a lot of the bad reviews you see may be due to people having totally unrealistic over-the-top expectations, maybe? Like expectations built up so high, the place can't possibly measure up. After reading a bunch of good reviews, then you'll get it in your head that this will be the absolute be-all,end-all, best-ever restaurant experience. Then when it's merely excellent it's a huge disappointment. And some bad reviews stem from the cost...people are freaked :scared1: by the inflated amusement park prices, and think the meal/service doesn't measure up to those prices. We always figure the cost is about 1/3 more than it would be "outside the world"...and don't fuss because we assume the cost difference pays for the location: we're eating at Disneyworld, for gosh sakes! We think of it as a "happiest place on earth" surcharge:rotfl2:

I agree 100% about why there are bad reviews!!! The only place I have been truely unhappy with is Chef Mickeys. I can't figure it out or pinpoint why, we just didn't like it both times we ate there. Go figure. Anyhow, thanks for the comments, and more coming up!

Hello again!!! I realized I have not gone through our cast of characters. So here goes.
Me Alicia 34 and loves most anything
DH Chris 37 very adventurous eater, will try most anything
DS Brandon 13 good eater, but eats like a bird. We ended up sharing quite a few meals
DS Bradley 9 big but picky eater. Hated the small portions on the kids menus, and shared a ton of stuff with us
DS Daniel 2 all I can say is he is picky for most meals:rolleyes1 . I'm hoping he outgrows this soon as feeding him is becoming a chore. He did however surprise us on this trip and ate very well. Ok, now on to the food:goodvibes

For lunch today we found ourselves at Sunshine Seasons in Epcot. This has to be a favorite of ours because of all the choices and variety.

My DH went the Asian route and choose the Mongolian Ginger Beef, Sweet and Sour Chicken, Garlic Udon Noodles and Stirfry vegetables. He enjoyed it all and my youngest DS loved the noodles. He went with the Soarin Creme Brulee for dessert!

http://i240.photobucket.com/albums/ff163/myboyslovestitch/8-31-08022.jpg

I ended up splitting with my DS cause he always has to leave something on his plate. He eats like a bird and I hate wasting food. We decided on the Turkey and Muenster Cheese on Foccacia with Chipotle Mayonnaise with the Soarin Creme Brulee for dessert. This sandwich was so yummy!!! The chipotle mayo was perfect for it! (Sorry for the pic, we cut it in half and had started eating before I realized to take a picture). I guess I didn't get a pic of our Creme Brulee, but it looked the same as my DH.

http://i240.photobucket.com/albums/ff163/myboyslovestitch/8-31-08023.jpg

Bradley decided on having the Chicken Leg with Mashed Potatoes. For his sides, he choose carrots and chocolate pudding.

http://i240.photobucket.com/albums/ff163/myboyslovestitch/8-31-08024.jpg

After lunch we headed out to the world showcase. And here we found a yummy adult beverage......................

http://i240.photobucket.com/albums/ff163/myboyslovestitch/8-31-08025.jpg
The Grey Goose Slushy. OMGawsh was it good!!! Then a little bit later in the afternoon we found one of these.
http://i240.photobucket.com/albums/ff163/myboyslovestitch/8-31-08029.jpg

Let me tell you all we don't drink at home. This is a rare treat for us to drink like this, and everything we ended up getting my DH and I split. Just don't want you all to think we are a bunch of boozies or something............:lmao:

Thats it for now.........Coming up tonight Ohanas!!

Cheers! Great pictures...I forgot to take pics when we were drinking around the world. Hey, it's fun to be boozies on vacay, doncha think? And my experience was those drinks are yummy, but not real heavy on the alcohol levels, anyway. At least that's what I always tell myself...:laughing:

Hello to all my new peeps joining in this food frenzy!!! We are now on to dinner at Ohanas!! To start off, I have to say we loved the changes they made here! The noodles are fantastic, the Pork Dumplings in Sweet n Sour Sauce were perfect! I loved it!! I still miss those little chips you could dip in the sauces though, but oh well! On to the pictures, shall we??!! Some of these are fuzzy I'm sorry about that...

A view of the grill
http://i240.photobucket.com/albums/ff163/myboyslovestitch/8-31-08041.jpg
The wonderful Ohana welcome bread for starters.........Daniel loved this, I think he ate half the loaf himself:rotfl:
http://i240.photobucket.com/albums/ff163/myboyslovestitch/8-31-08030.jpg
The 3 dipping sauces, Peanut Sauce, Chimichurri Sauce and Sweet and Sour Sauce

The salad with honey-lime dressing

Honey-coriander chicken wings

The yummy new noodles
http://i240.photobucket.com/albums/ff163/myboyslovestitch/8-31-08035.jpg
The veggies, with some type of garlic or something on them.... I really didn't like them much
http://i240.photobucket.com/albums/ff163/myboyslovestitch/8-31-08034.jpg
I just realized I forgot to take pictures of our meat:lmao: . We were so busy eating at this point, I guess I forgot.
Dessert was 'Ohana bread pudding a la mode with Bananas Foster Sauce

I'm not sure about what is in their foods, but one of those sauces definately is a peanut sauce. Its a nice place to eat though!

Ok after a crazy day, I am here with day 4! We were really not that hungry, so we grabbed a quick lunch at Pop! Brandon Bradley and I decided to share a nacho with eachother and per Bradleys request, we had the Tye Dye Cheesecake for dessert!!. They were pretty darn good in my opinion.

http://i240.photobucket.com/albums/ff163/myboyslovestitch/9-01-08050.jpg

Chris went with the Blackened Fish Sandwich and he went with cheese fries on the side instead of the pasta salad. He enjoyed it, it came with a coleslaw on it. Not something I would have enjoyed but thats me. The chilled coffee drink we got was kinda watery tasting too.

http://i240.photobucket.com/albums/ff163/myboyslovestitch/9-01-08051.jpg

For dinner we had reservations at 1900 Park Fair. Brandon and Bradley were less than thrilled with eating here because of all the princesses. I have various pictures of here, but I can't remember what all was on the plates. We really enjoyed this resturant. The chilled strawberry soup is soooo very yummy!!! The only downer for us was prince charming would not stop at our table. He waved everytime he walked by, but never stopped:confused3 . Anyhoo, on to the pics!!

This was not cream of mushroom, I think it was asparagus

And finally I had to throw this in. One of Cinderellas step sisters came up to the boys and asked them to do something for her. This is what they had to do. Dance in a circle with a bunch of girls, it was great!!

http://i240.photobucket.com/albums/ff163/myboyslovestitch/9-01-08079.jpg

Well thats it for today!! Coming up tomorrow Kona for Dinner, and Crystal Palace breakfast (for some reason I am not seeing any breakfast pics though, so I might not have those. I do have Kona though!! Thanks for sticking with me on here, and welcome to all my newcomers!!!

You ate at alot of the places on my list forMay 09!! I'll be at Pop too!!I loved the Twinkie Tiramasu and was sooo dissapointed in Feb when they didn't have it . They do still have the Tye Dye cheesecake !! The shrimp Lo Mein is what I plan on trying this time if I can tear myself away from thechicken Alfredo!!!

I thought the shrimp lo-mein was kind of gross and bland. I'd stick with the Alfredo, but even that is just "OK". I was FAR from wowed by any of the food at Pop, but some of it was definitely more edible than others.

Honestly yes, I think it might be too girly for them. My 9 year old was so scared he would be kissed by a princess this year. One got him on the cheek a few years ago. But with that being said, my boys did like the food and it was so worth watching them squirm when they had to dance:rotfl: Yes, I do plan on going back again. We all had a really good time that night:goodvibes

I know it would have been great to meet you also. What happened with Spoodles? I'll try and get the next installment up tonight, my 2 year old is sick:sad2: .

Is that a huge chunck of PRIME RIB I see at 1900 Park Fare? That may make it a little less painful for DH to have to go eat with princesses when we go! haha I'd assume that Prince Charming didn't stop at your table so as to not make the boys feel weirded out??? At least I'm giving him the benefit of doubt! :confused3

Ok, I'm sorry if this is choppy tonight. I am sick along with my really crabby sick 2 year old. We ate breakfast at CP this morning and met up with a wonderful disser aksunshine, and had a great day with Alicia and her family!! I was so busy enjoying my visit with them and taking pics of our kids, I forgot the food:rotfl: . So all I can say is CP is a must do for us!! We love the food, the characters are great!! I am sadly thinking of skipping it next year to try someplace else for breakfast. We have eaten there the last 3 trips sometimes 2 times during the trip, so its all good. Now on to the pictures. We at dinner that night at Kona Cafe. This was a first for us, and boy were we happy!! Here is a pic of the menu

http://i240.photobucket.com/albums/ff163/myboyslovestitch/9-2-08029.jpg

Brandon and I ordered Virgin Strawberry Daiquiri's for our drinks. It was so refreshing on such a hot day!

http://i240.photobucket.com/albums/ff163/myboyslovestitch/9-2-08031.jpg

They brought out this bread with OMGoodness the butter..............It was so yummy!!! I think I clogged my arteries a bit that night, because I ate the leftover butter with a spoon :rotfl: . I couldn't throw it away! Sorry the bread was torn into, Daniel couldn't wait:rotfl:

http://i240.photobucket.com/albums/ff163/myboyslovestitch/9-2-08032.jpg

So tonight my DH wanted an Ice tea, I didn't take a picture of that. He ordered the Tuna Oscar and really enjoyed it. I thought it was pretty good, but I didn't like the fried green tomatos that came with it.

http://i240.photobucket.com/albums/ff163/myboyslovestitch/9-2-08037.jpg

Bradley ordered the kids Mac and Cheese with the Chicken Noodle Soup. He ate every bit of the Mac and Cheese up, so it must have been good!!

http://i240.photobucket.com/albums/ff163/myboyslovestitch/9-2-08034.jpg

Brandon ordered the Coconut Almond Chicken. I tasted that too, and it was pretty good! For as small of an eater Brandon is, he ate almost the whole chicken breast. He didn't like the greens though.

http://i240.photobucket.com/albums/ff163/myboyslovestitch/9-2-08036.jpg

I ordered the Shrimp and Scallops. Now the waiter told me its perfect if you are not too hungry which I wasn't. It was sooooo yummy!!! I definately plan on ordering that again next year!!

http://i240.photobucket.com/albums/ff163/myboyslovestitch/9-2-08033.jpg

Now on to the desserts. Chris and I ordered the Banana-Chocolate Creme Brulee. Yeah, big surprise there:rotfl:

http://i240.photobucket.com/albums/ff163/myboyslovestitch/9-2-08039.jpg

For the life of me I can't remember what this was called that Brandon had. Very good, but rich!

http://i240.photobucket.com/albums/ff163/myboyslovestitch/9-2-08038.jpg

Poor Bradley was stuck again with an Ice Cream Sundae. We shared our desserts with him so he didn't feel left out. Daniel shared some of everyones food tonight also!

http://i240.photobucket.com/albums/ff163/myboyslovestitch/9-2-08040.jpg

Well, I think that wraps up Day 5. Tomorrow we ate leftovers in our room, and then Lunch at Yak N Yeti!!! Thanks for sticking around everyone!!! Have a great night!!

Ya know, I'm not sure if you can get something instead of the rice. The Creme Brulee was really good. There was a thin layer of chocolate on the bottom of the dish:cloud9: .

OMGoodness, my son ate like crazy. The day we ate at Yak N Yeti, he wanted Shrimp and cake (steak). He had never had shellfish, so I was a little worried with it, but he wouldn't stop hollering for it so I gave in. He loved it!!! I only wish he would eat at home:rolleyes1

Loving your reviews!

Went to Park Fair last Dec with our 6 year old son and my "really rough & tough" 8 year old nephew. And guess what they loved it! I think everyone including boys haas a fascination with Cinderella (although boys won't admit it). The evil step sisters were hilarious and really involved the boys in all of their antics! They definitely (characters and CMs) do a great job at not letting boys feel left out on the fun! And my son really got a hoot out his Aunt dancing with Prince Charming!!!
We all enjoyed it so much (the food is fab) that we will be there again a week from Friday!

Was the banana creme brulee flavored with fake banana flavoring (a la circus peanut candy and such) or just had a real banana with it.

I like creme brulee, and I like bananas, but I detest that fake banana flavoring. Blech.

Looks like a good meal! :thumbsup2

I might be wrong, but I didn't taste banana in the creme brulee, maybe I missed it though:confused3 . To me it seemed more custardish with maybe vanilla?

Hello everyone!!! Lets talk about Yak N Yeti. Boy were we really happy with this choice. I really flipfloped on this one with several reviews being just so so. This has become a must do now for us!!! For our drinks we ordered sodas. You really can't mess up a soda LOL. Ok on to the food and pics now. I really wanted to try the Wok Fried Greenbeans. OMGosh were they delish!!! They came with this sweet Thai Chili dipping sauce which really complemented the beans!

http://i240.photobucket.com/albums/ff163/myboyslovestitch/9-3-08022.jpg

Bradley ordered the Egg roll, fried rice and applesauce. He didn't like the rice, I really didn't like it either. I'm not sure why though:confused3

http://i240.photobucket.com/albums/ff163/myboyslovestitch/9-3-08023.jpg

Brandon ordered the Tempura Shrimp. He ate almost every bit of it. He cleared all the shrimp, sharing with Bradley and ate quite a bit of the rice. The only thing he didn't like were the veggies. Typical kid I guess. He really enjoyed it he said!

http://i240.photobucket.com/albums/ff163/myboyslovestitch/9-3-08025.jpg

Chris ordered the Seared Miso Salmon. He liked it, I thought it was just OK. The jasmine rice he had with it was soooo very good though!

http://i240.photobucket.com/albums/ff163/myboyslovestitch/9-3-08026.jpg

I ordered the Shaoxing Steak and Shrimp. The steak was cooked perfectly, and very tender! Daniel kept asking for shrimp and cake:rotfl: . He never eats steak at home, so what ever they marinated it in he liked. I ordered the coconut ginger rice instead of the Jasmine rice I should have stuck with the Jasmine. Chris swiched his rice for mine. He liked it, but it didn't do anything for me.

http://i240.photobucket.com/albums/ff163/myboyslovestitch/9-3-08024.jpg

Daniel was pitching a fit for some shrimp. He had never had it before, so I was a bit worried. You can see how much he enjoyed it. He ate the whole thing!
http://i240.photobucket.com/albums/ff163/myboyslovestitch/9-3-08030.jpg

For dessert, Bradley had an ice cream sundae. Brandon and Chris tried the Fried Wontons. Very good BTW!!

http://i240.photobucket.com/albums/ff163/myboyslovestitch/9-3-08031.jpg

I ordered the Sorbet which was Lemon, Raspberry, and Mango. Very good on a hot day!

http://i240.photobucket.com/albums/ff163/myboyslovestitch/9-3-08032.jpg

They brought out an extra ice cream for the baby

http://i240.photobucket.com/albums/ff163/myboyslovestitch/9-3-08033.jpg

We only used the highchair cover for the first week or so. After him getting really sick last year, I wasn't taking any chances. They looked pretty clean though!

I was wondering the same thing when I saw it in the pix! :cutie: I used to FAITHFULLY use one on high chairs with my older daughter but now, like you, I just Wet Wipe everything, the chair, the table -- and then I use the sticky Table Toppers (for my younger one).

I'd HOPE Disney doesn't let gunk build up on them. That'd be nasty! I certainly don't want to lug around my cover everywhere if I can aviod it.

Ok, now where were we. Oh yeah. The World Showcase!!! Hmmmm, this place is just so hard to choose on where to eat. Brandon and Bradley decided to share a meal in England at Yorkshire Country Fish House. This has to be the yummiest place for fried fish anywhere on property IMO! The boys split the fish and chips basket, with the Shortbread cookies for dessert!

http://i240.photobucket.com/albums/ff163/myboyslovestitch/9-4-08Disney001.jpg

Chris and I wandered up a little further to Mexico for a Wet Burrito and a Bunuelos for dessert. They kind of reminded me of Rosettes a little bit.

Tonight we had our long anticipated ADR for Coral Reef. I was so upset when they removed the crab legs we almost cancelled. But decided to keep it because Daniel loves watching fish. I also had scheduled a diver to hold an anniversary sign for us:goodvibes

http://i240.photobucket.com/albums/ff163/myboyslovestitch/9-4-08Disney036.jpg

They started us off with bread and a dipping oil

http://i240.photobucket.com/albums/ff163/myboyslovestitch/9-4-08Disney037.jpg

We started by ordering a bowl of Lobster Soup. It was pretty darn delish if you ask me. Daniel for that matter too I guess LOL

http://i240.photobucket.com/albums/ff163/myboyslovestitch/9-4-08Disney039.jpg

For dinner I ordered the Blackened Catfish. It was SPICY!!! OMGoodness It was good, but I couldn't finish it all. The pepper jack cheese grits were so good too! I could have ordered another side of those and I would have been happy!!

http://i240.photobucket.com/albums/ff163/myboyslovestitch/9-4-08Disney044.jpg

Chris ordered the Grilled New York Strip Steak. He said it was very tender and had a good flavor!

http://i240.photobucket.com/albums/ff163/myboyslovestitch/9-4-08Disney045.jpg

Brandon ordered the Grilled Pork Chop. He didn't want it at first, but was so glad he ordered it.

http://i240.photobucket.com/albums/ff163/myboyslovestitch/9-4-08Disney046.jpg

Bradley ordered the kids Mac and Cheese.

http://i240.photobucket.com/albums/ff163/myboyslovestitch/9-4-08Disney047.jpg

Now on to the best part!!!! Dessert..................

Chris and I ordered the Baileys and Jack Daniel's Mousse. I really didn't notice an alcohol flavor until I hit the bottom layer. It was really good and oh so rich!!

http://i240.photobucket.com/albums/ff163/myboyslovestitch/9-4-08Disney049.jpg

Brandon had the Chocolate Wave, and shared it with Bradley. It was really good, but those brandied cherrys OMG you could get snockered on eating too many of those LOL.

What great reviews and amazing pictures!

We wanted to get to Ohana's for dinner when we went 3 weeks ago but couldn't get a table - I'm even more disappointed now after seeing your photos! But if we do get back, it'll be top of our list!

Also liking the look of Yak and Yeti!

Thanks for taking the time to write your review - I am loving them!

How did your son like the Mac & Cheese from Coral Reef?? Is it the same everywhere or different at each restaurant? DD's tend to like KRAFT (haha) so I'm trying to figure out what kind they use, what it's like, etc.

THANKS!!

PS the diver sign is awsome! I hope DH enjoyed it! I guess if you request a diver with a sign then you get to sit pretty darn close to the window, eh? ;)

Great update We are trying the Coral Reef next year How spicy was the Catfish!! I want to try the Seafood pasta !! But I think DSIL would love the Catfish and spicy is right up his alley!!

I thought it was quite spicy. If your DSIL likes spicy, she should really enjoy this!

Thank you!! And yup, I love shopping at the Disney Store. Sadly they closed all that were close to me, now its over an hour drive to one:sad2:

Yak and Yeti is now at the top of our favorites list for next year!! Thank you and a quick update tonight.

Still enjoying the reviews, Yak and Yeti looks good. Can you explain what a mojito is please?

Thank you very much!!
I honestly am not sure what all is in a mojito other then mint, lime, and I think rum? It was pretty good. The mint had a nice touch in it

Thanks!!! I'm pretty sure the Mac and Cheese is the same at most of the resturants. Its definately not Kraft though:goodvibes . Really cheesy, creamy IMO better then Kraft, but I'm not a kid:rotfl: We sat one row away from the tank. I'm not sure if I really would want to be right up against the glass. Its too close then.

Hey! I just saw this link. I am doing a food report on the side too. It's funny how we ordered almost the same meals over at Yak & Yeti. :laughing: That wonton dessert was so yummy! Sidney said he saw the Twinkie Tiramisu...you have to go pick it up on the far left as you go into the food court. Over where they make the ice cream stuff. I wish we would have seen you guys! Where did you stay (what area) at Pop?

In Feb I asked abour Twinkie Tiramusu at the Icecream place the first CM had no idea what I was talking about the 2nd said they didn't havethem anymore! I said they were my fav. I wonder if enough people complained and they brought them back??

I never went in there but he said he saw about three of them and they looked icky so he got cheesecake instead. I loved that twinkie dessert too.

We were right by the Goofy jets. If you we're standing there at the jets looking at the red car (that went missing at some point????) and looked back over you left shoulder you'd see my room. First floor corner. I think that is the 70's section? I kept hearing the Bee Gees. lol I spent no time in the room really. The dining kept us tied up.

Hi everyone!!! I"m sorry I am behind. With sickness, school, work and now my MIL is in the hospital its been crazy to say the least. Anyhoo, my DH is home tomorrow so I'll have some "me" time with the computer to get the photos uploaded for this. I am thinking I don't have anything from Crystal palace though, I think we were too busy eating to get out and to the MNSSHP that night. Anyhoo, thanks for sticking with me!! More pics to come!

Holy crap! How'd I miss this thread!? I was even told it was gonna happen! I've been mostly ignoring the fact that Disney exists due to me not being there and all...

That food looks so delicious right now. I'm regretting my cheapo spaghetti night now. Hmmmm...maybe tomorrow will be fish night! That asian salmon looked to die for good.

Your baby, who looks a lot like my baby, is gonna be a surf and turf fan, I can sense it!:lmao:

Awesome awesome awesome!

Ok, I am sorry that this is so late. I didn't get any pictures of Crystal Palace I guess. So its just counter service for today and 2 snack pictures.

My DH and I split the Rosemary Rotisserie Chicken from Wolf Gang Puck Express. OMG is this yummy!!

http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc234/hawc2000/9-5-08001.jpg

Bradley was in his glory here because he was able to order of the adult menu. He went with the Crispy Chicken it came with a side of seasoned fries those were pretty yummy too!!

http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc234/hawc2000/9-5-08003.jpg
http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc234/hawc2000/9-5-08004.jpg

For dessert they both choose Creme Brulee, big shocker there:lmao:

http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc234/hawc2000/9-5-08002.jpg

I also had a sandwich ordered from Earl of Sandwich, but I can't find the picture

For dessert there we went with the cupcake. It was pretty good!!

http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc234/hawc2000/9-5-08005.jpg

Later that night after the MNSSHP, Brandon had the munchies and wanted a Meatball Sub from Pops food court. He had the Tye Dye Cheesecake for dessert along with a smart water

http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc234/hawc2000/9-5-08173.jpg

Here are a couple of snack pics from Goofys candy

Pretzel rods, dipped in milk chocolate, rolled in pecans and drizzled with milk chocolate. YUMMY!!!

http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc234/hawc2000/9-5-08174.jpg

Brandon wanted a gingerbread cookie, dipped in chocolate, rolled in pecans, sprinkled with butterfinger and drizzeled with Carmel. This thing was gigantic!!! Way too much goiing on for me

http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc234/hawc2000/9-5-08176.jpg

Ok, thats it for tonight! Tomorrow our last TS meal breakfast at Kona, and the last of our snack and CS credits at DTD. Thanks for sticking with me!!!

Ok everyone, final day. We had a breakfast ADR for Kona Cafe. We really enjoyed eating here, but I was a little confused by the no refill policy on beverages?? My DS couldn't get a milk refill, go figure. I don't know, it seemed kinda strange to me. He didn't have any speciality beverages or anything. Ok, now on to the pics:goodvibes

Both my husband, Brandon and I all started with the Lilikoi Juice. It was apassion, guava and orange juice blend. OMG this had to be the best juice I have had!!!

http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc234/hawc2000/9-7-08001.jpg

My DH and I both wanted to try the Tonga Toast. He really liked, I did too, but the Pancakes Brandon had were to die for!!!

http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc234/hawc2000/9-7-08004.jpg

Brandon wanted the Macadamia Pineapple Pancakes - with macadamia nut butter. He had the Pineapple on the side though

http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc234/hawc2000/9-7-08002.jpg

Bradley had the Goofy Toast, which was a fried egg in the middle of toast!

http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc234/hawc2000/9-7-08003.jpg

All in all it was a very nice breakfast!!!

Now, since we were leaving in a few hours, we had a few CS and snack credits to knock off. So, off to Earl of Sandwich I went

I went with the The Original 1762 , which was roast beef, cheddar and horseradish sauce. Instead of dessert, I opted for a bag of chips. This sandwich really dissapointed me. I thought the Roast beef was tough. You would take a bite, and all the meat would come out at once. If it weren't for that, It would have been perfect!! Daniel loved the beef though. He ate just about all of the meat from it.

http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc234/hawc2000/9-7-08007.jpg

Chris and the kids went over to Wolf Gang Puck Express. They split between them a BBQ Chicken Pizza

http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc234/hawc2000/9-7-08008.jpg

And a BBQ Chicken Quesadilla

http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc234/hawc2000/9-7-08009.jpg

For dessert, big shocker again Creme Brulee

http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc234/hawc2000/9-7-08010.jpg

Ok, I have to throw this pic in of my son. He was being goofy while we were eating.

http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc234/hawc2000/9-7-08011-1.jpg

For our snack credits we went to goofys candy to get some treats to take home.

Dipped pretzels again. So yummy, I need to make these at home

http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc234/hawc2000/Extremehomemakeover001.jpg

Fudge, suckers and crispy treats. The red Mickey sucker Daniel wanted the whole trip, I waited till we left to get it, cause I didn't want him bugging me to eat it right away. BTW, he still hasn't finished it LOL

http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc234/hawc2000/Extremehomemakeover002.jpg

Well everyone, thats about it I think. It was a fun 10 days there. I can't wait to go back next year to eat again!! Thanks for sticking with me through this!!
