    New Cat Cora Restaurant (replacing Spoodles)

    i realize I'm probably coming off as too 'anti Cora'. I don't mean to. I just done see many changes coming to the place. They really can't make it into too much of a high end place because it's right next to the Flying Fish so I'd expect the price point to stay the same (and it'll keep on doing...

    New Cat Cora Restaurant (replacing Spoodles)

    But it's not like Spoodles has bad food or a bad menu right now. At most there may be more greek mixed in (or the word greek will show up more). as for what Cora will tolerate who knows... I don't think she's been involved with a restaurant before this one so there is no track record to go by.

    New Cat Cora Restaurant (replacing Spoodles)

    The place was already a Mediterranean/greek restaurant. Sounds to me like all they are doing is attaching a 'famous' chef (who'll never be in the kitchen), and changing the name. I doubt the food will change much (if at all) and it won't take long to change it over. It might bring in bigger...

    Just back from AKL....my report....bring on the flames!!

    but the beds are much bigger and you actually have a balcony. that would be me :D. Really you should have asked for a room change if you weren't happy with your room (or asked for a room away from the stairwell and a good view on check in) that's a complain that pops up at every resort, i...

    Bring own vcr??

    the TVs at the AKL have video jacks on the front (at least my room did) so you could easily plug in a VHS, DVD player or a game system. I wish i had known this before i left because i would have brought my own.

    Concourse Steakhouse??

    BTW their menu has changed (i know it has at lunch and i bet it has for dinner too) and they offer some new selection (peach BBQ pork tenderloin on the lunch menu and a pasta dish). IN fact i wish i had jotted down the new menu because i haven't seen it online anywhere. Service was great at...

    1 hour 30 minute check-in today at CBR

    when we showed up at the AKL we had issues with getting a bellman and did just that, made for a lot of extra trips to the car (because disney won't give you a cart unless you get a bellman and we had a lot of stuff) but if we hadn't it would have taken a while to get someone

    sharing meals, is it ok?

    I've read that some WDW restaurants (prime time cafe was the example I heard) will even split the food onto 2 plates for you if you ask.

    1st AKL trip!! need help!?!?!?

    a) it's possible buy I think it's less likely than if you had requested a standard view (which really seem to be overbooked a lot of the time esp. with the discounts they have been offering) but I'm no means an expert. E) technically it's suppose to close when the pool closes, which is dusk...

    Anyone eat at the Concourse steakhouse lately?

    I did not see it on their lunch menu when I ate their last week. the have added a pasta dish (which got a good review from my mother) and a peach bbq pork tenderloin with jalapeño mashed potatoes, the bbq sauce was good but the pork was overcooked (and tough) and the potatoes didn't have a...

    Is California Grill OK for kids?

    I didn’t realize expecting children not to run around throwing food, not to play tag in the restaurant, not to scream their heads off, not to wack other diners (not accidentally, I mean going out and hitting people) with toys, etc was rude and condescending. My apologies.

    rude waitress at Hollywood and Vine

    Not crazy at all, I would have had a talk to her manager. That is inappropriate anywhere to anyone but really bad at WDW to a child. I can understand being frustrated but she really needs more self control and not say (and do) anything like that, if she can’t she needs a new job and might need a...

    Just back from 10 days at AKL...

    Others have said that they felt the view was too low from the 2’nd floor but I didn’t not think so (it’s the same view you get from the observation decks and the observation rock), I had a great view of the left inside part of the savanna right at the giraffe feeding area (and where the zebras...

    Just back from 10 days at AKL...

    yes you are one level below the lobby. but on the same level as the firepit and viewing rock. i do not think they have any savanna view rooms on the first level.

    AKL Refrigerators?

    you might have to ask them after check in if they are really busy (at least i did) but they will bring one right up to you, no charge to boot.

    Just back from 10 days at AKL...

    same here room 2383 (can't remember the name of the savanna but it faced inwards on the end). AMAZING VIEW, animals all over the place. BTW the room was an upgrade for me because the standard view rooms were overbooked (WOOT)
