And now an update sent to us by HoneyBeeM.


She and her family were at the Polynesian Resort yesterday to have breakfast at...



KONA CAFE

Lilikoi Juice - Orange, passion fruit and guava blend

Sausage & Egg Omelet with Home fried Potatoes and a Biscuit



HBM said, "My brother had this and didn't like it because of the cheese used. He is not a fan of cheddar.
I tried his potatoes though...they were delicious!"

Macadamia Pineapple Pancakes - Served with Macadamia nut butter, pineapple sauce, and bacon


HBM said, "The pancakes were light and fluffy. The bacon was excellent too...very crispy!"

Big Kahuna - French Toast, pancakes, eggs your way, home fried potatoes, ham, bacon, and sausage


HBM said, "My dad really enjoyed this!"

Fruit Cup (side dish)


HBM said, "My uncle said this was very fresh."

Two Eggs Your Way - Served with Home fried potatoes, a biscuit, and sausage


HBM said, "This was my mom's breakfast. Maybe because we are southern and know good biscuits, but she wasn't too impressed with it."

RECRUITMENT TIME ​

Thanks so much to all of you who have volunteered your services during your upcoming trips. Because of you, we should have a steady stream of fresh Disney food porn to drool over from now until Christmas.

But here are the dates which we could still use some additional live reporters:


December 21 - December 27 - 1 more reporter needed

December 28 - January 1 - We have no one yet for these dates

January 2 - January 10 - 2 or 3 more reporters needed

January 21 - January 31 - 2 or 3 more reporters needed


So if your trip to Disney World falls during any of these dates, please consider doing live updates for us either by text or email. Also, if you're going sometime between now and the end of January but not during the above listed dates, please still check with me if you would like to be a live reporter. I might still be able to squeeze you into the schedule depending on your dates.

Thanks again everyone!

I'll be back with middle DS from Jan 26-Feb 1. First three nights at AKL Jambo and last three nights at BLT.

we are packed and ready to go!! we will arrive on 11/23rd and check into pop and we are planning on eating lunch @ AOA foodcourt and dinner @ WPE but i will be posting!! can't wait!

Wow they changed the presentation of that filet quick at Cali Grill! I do not think many people were loving the Brussels sprouts or the weird potato casserole they introduced during the last menu change.

That being said they will switch sides, Paging Mr. Morrow. My husband didn't want sprouts so they switched them for carrots. Your options for switching, however, do depend on what they have available that night.

It would be great if you could do updates during your trip! I'll add you to the January trip list and send you a PM sometime in late December with my info to send your updates. Thanks!

Yay! I'll look forward to start receiving your updates beginning on Friday.

NOOOOOO they changed the cheesy mashed potatoes with the filet?! I was so looking forward to this. I am going in less than 2 weeks and am nervous because I am a picky eater and this menu change does not suit me at all. The only thing I will eat is the filet but I do not like the purple sweet potatoes or glazed carrots at all... will Cali grill switch the sides for me?!!!! I would even be willing to take just plain mashed potatoes

Paging Mr. Morrow, Roma did a great job of answering your question. I will add though that CA Grill frequently changes the sides that they serve with their filet, so it is possible that it could change again. If not, then like Roma said, you should be able to switch to any side dish offered with another Adult or Kids entree on their menu that evening.

Welcome to the thread, halleous! So glad you are enjoying it!

Hi Barb, I volunteered a bit ago to live report from 1/28 - 1/30, but I don't see me marked down in the schedule.

I'm so sorry Li Li. I must have gotten sidetracked and forgot to add you to the list. But I've got you added now. Thanks so much for bringing it to my attention.

She says if you can please her, you know it's good."

[Linda67]

I love the look of the new breakfast at CRT, although it might not be that new but it's certainly changed from when we ate there

Wow, Bongos - never considered it before but it looks like it's worth a try

 

[jabead]

Nanabug02 had lunch yesterday at her resort's QS restaurant...


Roaring Forks



First some menu pics...

Here's what she chose...

Ham & Cheddar Panini with Cranberry Mustard, House-made Chips, and a Vanilla Cupcake




NB02 said, "The panini was huge and really good. Could have easily split this, as I only ate about half.
The vanilla cupcake was fresh and just the perfect amount of sweet!"





And speaking of sweets, Nanabug sent us these bonus pics of the display case at Roaring Forks.
