    Steakhouse55 vs Napa Rose

    Ohh...I think first course was a Jumbo Prawn stuffed with Shrimp with n Ahi Tuna side, Second Course was a Pheasant and Fig dish, Main Course was Lamb with Fall Vegetables, and Dessert was an Apple Semifreddo with diced apples and Jalapenos (Not Spicy). We also got the traditional Amuse Bouche...

    Steakhouse55 vs Napa Rose

    My husband and I JUST did Napa Rose Saturday night for our anniversary. it was amazing. We always do the Vinter's Table (he does wine pairing), and we are never disappointed. If you can swing the cost, I would highly recommend. It is our rare indulgence with food, and I don't regret a single...

    LA Traffic Question

    It all depends on if you would rather be driving for 90 miinutes, or sitting in traffic for 90 minutes. I don't think one is necessarily faster than the other, the 210 is pretty hairy at that time too, since that is the busier side of the 210 at that time. Really, the 5 is bad at the 60...

    Has anyone been at DLR for your anniversary?

    We're going for our one year anniversary in October. We vacationed in WDW (just a Disney family!). I would recommend getting the pins and wearing them around, you'll get lots of comments and stuff from CMs. We are staying at the Marriott with a Disney view lanai room. Dinner at Napa Rose...

    BEWARE: Art on Demand

    Yeah, we got fed that same line "Oh, it should ship this week." And I understand how you feel, I really wanted my dueling ghosts more than anything. You may have good luck on ebay with the ride poster though...

    BEWARE: Art on Demand

    The hubby heard back from Disney today. They explained that the program has been suspended and they are processing refunds. They said it will take a couple weeks. At least it is an answer. Anyone know where we can get canvas framed prints of the dueling ghosts now, since AoD is no longer, at...

    BEWARE: Art on Demand

    I completely agree. We've used this service before with excellent results, we were not afraid of them or anything, which is why this is so unsettling! I hope it all get figured out, and I wish more than getting our money back we could get the prints!! But it does not seem like that will be...

    NICE Good neighbor Hotels?

    So my husband and I are looking to spend our 1 year anniversary at the DLR, we're planning on spending a Sat and Sun night, going to Napa Rose Sun evening, on our actual anniversary. I want this to be a NICE vacation, but can't make myself spend $500+ to stay at PPH, and over $750 for GC. We...

    Reflecting on the eternal DL vs. WDW comparison

    Loving this thread. I am a DL native. I've been going to this park my entire life, I know every corner and every ride. My husband and I just honeymooned in WDW this past October. It was very interesting. Being a Disney nut, everyone asked me when I got back "so, which is better?" I...

    BEWARE: Art on Demand

    Just googled "The Art Group", which is the company that runs the art on demand kiosks, and they were just bought out by Pyramid International, finalized July 20. So if Disney can't help us out, we will be making a call to them. At least they're bought out, and not going under...

    BEWARE: Art on Demand

    Just a heads up to everyone out there. My husband tried to buy my some canvas prints from Art on Demand kiosk at World of Disney in CA. He waited and waited, there was supposed to be a 2-3 week lead time on the prints. So after the 3 weeks had passed, he called and called, and finally got...

We did the Vinters Table 4 course meal with wine pairings and it was delicious. There was food ont here I wasn't excited about when we decided to do the fixed menu, but...

    Tortilla Jo's

    We ate there once about 2 years ago, and it was great...though our bar tab was as expansive as our food tab that time, so that may have had something to do with it!! The next time we went back, months later, we only had food there, and it was very mediocre. We haven't been back since, and I...

    To 403b or not....

    I have a 403b with my hospital (just a non-profit version of 401k). I actually just met with my adviser a few months ago, while the market was taking a nosedive. We decided to up my contribution. I'm only 25, so we figured contributing right now IS like buying at a discount. You are getting...
