I thought the icing had no flavor on my cupcake I had
Oh wow! That wasn't my experience at all, so maybe they improved it... or you just got a bad batch

Thanks for the Trattoria Review, as I hadn't heard too much about it yet. That calamari looks delicious, as does your pesto dish. Your hubbys dish looks really good too, too bad the taste didn't live up to the looks
Things for the review on this new place. I have heard mixed reviews but glad you enjoyed the app and your entree
Following along. I love strawberry ice cream and everyone always raves about the ice cream at the new France location. I have a quick question, do you remember if the ice cream had real strawberry pieces in it? I love the flavor of strawberry ice cream but I'm not a fan of the fruit chunks!
I'm really glad to see some reviews of Trattoria. Your meal looks delicious! It doesn't look anything like I would picture from the description though. Were there green beans and potatoes mixed in with the pasta? I think potato and pasta would be an odd combination.
One more question if you can remember back that far. Did Boardwalk Bakery have the Oreo cupcakes still? I LOVE THOSE SO MUCH! I think I would probably shed a tear if they got rid of them. I didn't get to get one on my last trip so I'm really looking forward to one in November.
That strawberry cupcake though!
Thanks so much for your replies
Everything looks so good! I've been enjoying your reviews...thanks so much!
Following along! We travel back to WDW in June 2016 and I am already scouring reviews to find new places to eat at. Love your report so far!
For my dessert I headed next door to the ice cream shop to try the strawberries and cream ice cream maracron sandwich:
This was also delicious! I love the ice cream here, it always tastes so fresh and natural. Instead of the fake strawberry flavor you get in a lot of strawberry ice creams, this tasted like real strawberries. And the cookie was fresh and delicious. I just wish it was bigger! I would give it an 9 out of 10.
So overall, Les Halles was extremely hit or miss with us. The sandwiches we had were decent, but the salad was just ridiculous. But the desserts were amazing. So I would probably only come back here for the desserts - only problem is, with the ice cream shop right next door I'd probably choose that every time! So I'm not really sure when/if I'd go back here. It's hard to give it an overall rating because stuff varied so much, but I'd go with a 7 out of 10.

Haven't been to the Pop in a long time. Looks like it was agood value with tables in wonderland tho. That cupcake looks very good.
Aaaaaaaaaaand now I'm over here! All caught up now
I take a real pleasure out of using TIW at Value food courts, I feel like I'm getting away with something! Just good to know you're saving no matter what.
The Macaron ice cream sandwich looks awesome. I never had macaron with ice cream and it sounds like the ice cream was really good -- i hate the fake flavours too!
Following!
POP used to have some great food with the Mom's Night Out Specials (think fried chicken, really good meatloaf, etc). However, they dropped these a few years ago when the powers that be decided to make the menu healthy. Sigh. I can eat healthy at home. Even though POP is my usual home resort, I hardly ever eat at the caf. But I always make a point to stop for some post-park treats. I always get the King Cupcake (which is fabulous!) and the tie-dyed cheesecake. Sadly, they have brutalized the poor cheesecake by reducing the portion and shoving it into a little round plastic container. Its still tasty but just not what it used to be. Sometimes "progress" is just bad news.
Pop looks pretty good for a food court to me ; ) And yum that cupcake looks delicious even if its pretty standard fare
