But We Haven't Lost Last Years Weight Yet! COMPLETED PAGE 32!
Helloooooooo and welcome to my brand new food report! I had great fun writing last years, so I’m back for another go!
MEDICAL DISCLAIMER!! I am afraid to say you are not going to see much healthy food over the course of this review. There is, however, a medical reason!!! Yes, I am able to justify the diet you are about to see before you! I suffer a bit of an ongoing tummy problem, which has been getting a lot worse lately. When I went to the doctor he asked me about my diet. I proudly (and a little smugly) told him that I eat about 8 portions of fruit and veg a day. He advised me that this is “too healthy” and I needed to cut back. Well, as you will see, I am never one to ignore doctor’s orders!!!!!!!!! ![]() So let me introduce us, I am Sonya and my DH is Tony. We have been together 7 years, been to Disney 6 times in that time (in 2004 I won a holiday to Australia so we couldn’t go to Florida . . . ironically I only entered the competition to try and win the 2nd prize which was cash, in order to pay for a Florida trip!), and in 2006 we got married in Disney’s wedding pavilion. We love us a bit of Disney. Things we don’t like – seafood and small portions, so you won’t see much of them here! Apart from that we are pretty much anything goes, diet-wise! This year’s trip was quite long! We spent two weeks in Orlando from May 2nd – 16th, and then a week on the Disney Magic cruising the Western Caribbean! That’s a lot of food . . . that’s a lot of weight to gain. Tony has already weighed himself . . . it wasn’t pretty. I am holding off for a week or so! This is us on the formal night on board. Hi there!! ![]() Had a bit of a rough start to the trip – we were meant to be staying at Port Orleans Riverside . . . when we arrived they told us Virgin (our TA’s) had cancelled the booking 10 days earlier, and the hotel was full!!!!! Thank goodness for Disney customer service is all I can say. They found us a room at French Quarter (where we stayed last year and loved) and we decided to stay there for the full two weeks (nearer to the beignets!!). Took a few days for the TA to sort out the dining plan (which we were on for the first time) and our park tickets, as they were cancelled as well, but we got there in the end! And yes, there is a 6 page complaint letter in the post to our travel agents as we speak!!! And no, stress doesn’t put us off our food! So without further ado, a list below of the places we will be reviewing! We went to a mix of old and new places (to us) this year, and have a new surprise favourite! Table Service Boma – breakfast-p20 Boma - dinner - p22 Le Cellier – lunch p11 T-Rex – dinner p11 California Grill - dinner p13 Ohanas – dinner p15 50’s Primetime – dinner p p17 Kona Café – breakfast p25 The Wave - dinner - p20 1900 Park Fayre – dinner p19 Chefs De France – lunch - p23 Nine Dragons – dinner - p27 Crystal Palace – dinner - p25 Beaches n Cream – lunch and dinner - p23 & p30 Chef Mickey – breakfast - p27 Grand Floridian café – lunch - p29 Raglan Road – dinner -p29 House of Blues - p25 Counter Service Riverside Mill Food court – dinner - page 3 Sassagoula Floatworks – breakfast (many times!) Page 7, 11 13, 15, 17, 22 25 &29 Earl of Sandwich – lunch (4 times) Page 7, p20 p27m p30 Cookes of Dublin – lunch - page 13 Wolfgang Puck Express – breakfast and lunch p15 & p23 Peco Bills - lunch p19 Pizzafari – lunch - p22 Captain Cook’s – breakfast p19 Casey’s - lunch - p25 Snacks Ghirardelli’s (about 25 times!) p11, 15, 25, 27 Sunshine Seasons p11 Goofy’s Candy Store p11 & 25 Main Street Bakery (too many times!) p19, p25, p30 Mini Donut Hut - Blizzard Beach p15 Kaka Gori - p23 Kringla Bakeri - p23 Riverside Mill food court p3, p20 Popcorn stand p13 Dinosaur Gerties p13 Anandapur Icecream Truck - p22 Pretzel stand - p17 Sleepy Hollow - p25 Off-site Tony Romas - dinner - page 7 Market Street Café, Celebration – lunch - p17 Buffalo Wild Wings – lunch - p25 Starbucks – snack - page 7 Plus 7 nights of fabulous food onboard the Disney Magic!

! I can't believe it's already time for another one of your fantabulous reports! I don't want to miss a word (or a bite!) ![]() I can't believe what happened with your TA, I am so sorry! Kind of a rotten start, but POFQ is so lovely, and even closer to DTD with a short trip to POR, so really the next best thing! Maria
