Ok, so on with my dining reviews (sorry I was neglecting it trying to start my Trip Report). We were on the Dining plan.

On our first day 8/24/07 we arrived , checked in and head to the Pepper Market.

I had the steak fajita (I love their fajitas) but the chicken I think would have been a better choice. I was my first time ordering the steak version and the steak was tough and hard to eat in a fajita. Overall though it was still enjoyable and I split it easily with DH (He ate 2, I ate 1 and then ate the rest without the wrap).

My son had the kids cheese pizza with cookie, orange slice and drink. He ate every bite of his pizza.

DStepD had the chinese plate special. She didn't like her chicken at ALL. She also complained the the sauce they put on the noodles tasted funny. I tried it and it was just "ok" but I guess not what she is used to from home.

That evening we had ADR's @ Chef Mickey's.

I don't have any photos here except a few desserts but we all enjoyed our meals. I really like salmon here and the salad choices are pretty average but still tasty.

8/25/07

Day 2 we skipped breakfast and hung by the pool. Early lunch @ the Pepper Market before heading to the Studios.

Lunch was pasta for both Ashley and I . I got the penne with mushroom sauce and she got penne with marinara. Both with breadsticks. Dessert I got Chocolate croissant and Ashley got a cookie. Those cookies are HUGE. We both liked our pasta but tried not to overeat as we had Mama Melrose that night and were afraid we'd end up ordering pasta again.

TC got the rib eye steak and he enjoyed it as usual (he ate it a few times our last trip). Trae got the kids pizza...AGAIN lol

I can't find their pics....


Goofy's
Both kids had pretzel rods dipped in chocolate and then in Oreo cookie. They REALLY liked these as a midday snack---great use of a snack credit as you get 3 rods ;)

MAMA Melrose

We decided to try this on the F! package and though it was just "ok" I think I may try it again in the future. Our waitress was great and very attentive.
ME
App: Artisan Bread Didn't like. I thought the bread tasted stale and I wasn't fond of the dips.
47b7d722b3127ccebaf93c75f9a100000026108BZuWzNu3bC

Meal: Chicken Flatbread LOVED this.
47b7d722b3127ccebaf959f1b98f00000026108BZuWzNu3bC

Dessert: Tiramisu pretty good...Kind of a dry tiramisu---not what I am used to.
47b7d722b3127ccebaf95d9438d800000026108BZuWzNu3bC


TC
App: Calamari We all picked at this and it was very good.
47b7d722b3127ccebaf93178380200000025108BZuWzNu3bC

Meal: Sirlion TASTED LIKE PLASTIC! It was almost inedible. TC actually forced himself to eat it and didn't complain---how he did I have no clue.
47b7d722b3127ccebaf94c5df9b100000026108BZuWzNu3bC

Dessert: Tiramisu AND Espresso (she let him get both on the DDP) Spoiled boy..he loved having both of these ;)

Ashley
App: Mozzarella and Tomato Pretty average..I love tomato and mozzarella.
47b7d722b3127ccebaf935a5b9ed00000025108BZuWzNu3bC

Meal: Spaghetti Diavolo She picked at it and said it was ok, but wasn't what she expected. She wanted more heat to the "spicy sauce".
47b7d722b3127ccebaf94048789200000026108BZuWzNu3bC

Dessert: Chocolate gelato. Ate a few bites but said it tasted like regular chocolate ice cream.
47b7d722b3127ccebaf9569b784a00000026108BZuWzNu3bC


Trae
App: Salad
Meal: kids cheese pizza (see a trend yet?)
47b7d722b3127ccebaf94491f97900000026108BZuWzNu3bC

hmmm..can't find what he got for dessert---Ice cream I think? (I didn't note as much of his stuff as he was pretty consistant with the same meals)

Trae spilled his chocolate milk all over the table and within seconds 2 waiters were helping us clean it.
 
Great reviews so far, sounds like you had a magical trip!

Your son spilling his chocolate milk sounds just like our family- someone s always spilling something, and not just the kids! :lmao:
 


Thanks for your deatiled reviews - even though you are missing a few pictures ; ). Looking forward to the rest.
 
Enjoying reading your reviews :banana: and looking forward to hearing + seeing more.... :cool1:

We are considering eating at many of the same places when we go in October so will be following this thread closely :cutie:
 
Oooh, I love the pictures!!!! Great reviews!!!! Keep em comin!!!
 
Unfortunately this portion won't have any food pics..It was a trying morning and we originally had ADR's @ 'Ohana for breakfast but had to cancel last minute from my cell. We arrived to check into POR for free dining (moving from CSR) and were greeted by 1.5 hour wait. The line was INSANE!

So we skipped breakfast finally got checked in, headed to the room and made it to the Studios around 10. Lunch was Pizzafari and I really enjoyed it. I was SO bummed b4 the trip that Tusker House would be closed (one of my fave CS's) but I couldn't have been happier with my backup.

Trae only wanted the pizza and it isn't on the kids menu so daddy ordered that and split it with him---TC ordered the kids cheese quesadillas for Trae and ate them himself (those were kinda yuck) I had the Italian sandwich, which I craved a few more times during the week and Ashley had the chicken Parm which TC wish he had been able to get.

Up next is Le Chef's de France WITH PICS :)
 
Pizzafari does not have pizza on the kids menu? That seems kind of idotic.:confused3

yes it does. But our CM last year said they will allow the child to order that, so that's what we did, we got 3 "adult" meals there instead of 2 and 2. But it's not on the menu, so if you don't know to ask or the CM doesn't say anything....
