The last time we were at CG it was the other restaurant with the Broadway show that I can't remember the name of- bad, bad Disser, Ellen! So this was all new to us. We were seated and let the feasting begin! Ds11 ordered a strawberry smoothie -
And DS9 got milk and worked on the placemat-
We were seated next to the kitchen, kind of, so it looked like this-
And DS11 was next to a million wine glasses
...No sudden movements, buddy- PLEASE!
DH & I love sushi, so we ordered a couple rolls to try- I think one was a spicy one or the crunchy one and one was a special, and I don't remember which was which, I am sooo sorry! But I can tell you our server told us that the sushi menu changes all the time because they go with whatever looks best- so I know I had cobia and I think wahoo- and I've never had either for sushi before. This was sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo delish- I can't wait to go back and eat there again. But next time I think I'll just sit at the bar (no reservations) and order all sushi-
For the main I had diver scallops, they were perfect-
And DH had pan seared grouper, also fantastic
Both kids got the kids ribeye (one last steak before it's back to a life of chicken and pasta!)
And of course, DH & I got a bottle of wine. While we were there, sitting just 2 tables away, were 2 Redskins- Jason Campbell (quarterback) and Chris Coolie (tight end). But we're Giants fans, so no pics!
I guess now we know what football players do when they have a by week- they go to WDW!
No dessert, we were beyond stuffed. Now, as everyone knows, when you book a table at CG you're supposed to try to be there during Wishes. So I had called however many months prior, based on when the schedule said Wishes was happening....and then Disney changed the time.
So here's a tip- keep checking the schedule before your trip, and see if you can change your res before you get kicked out onto the windy, freezing deck instead of the nice cozy restaurant. Where my family was so over it, and didn't want to wait.
Too bad I got the gorilla pod after this trip!

A swanky lounge-
We were all tired. Beat. The last night of a long and beyond fabulous vacation. And that BWV 1 bdrm villa? That was the perfect place to just
hang. I had hoped to meet up with Cammie and Tigerkat again, but as it turned out, it wasn't going to happen- which was ok, because I was pooped! So I drank some champagne (from the REAS that was in the cabin when we arrived- I finally popped it!), talked to Tigerkat on the phone, and enjoyed the view-
