This was a quick trip with a friend from work. No kids, no dh's. I have to add that there is not much that I won't eat so my reviews are pretty fair.
Thurs. 10/14 - Chef Mickey's
This is a first night favorite, but it wasn't the same without kids.
The food was just okay. Parmesan potatoes were wonderful, but nothing else really tasted very good to me. I didn't think there was very much on the salad side and the few things that I did try were disgusting!! I know this is a favorite of many, but I'm not sure that I would spend that much again on mashed potatoes and dessert!!
Fri. 10/15 - Lunch at Columbia Harbor House
This lunch was included in our Keys to Kingdom Tour which I highly recommend!! Plus, we got rained on a little so everyone got a free poncho!!
I had the Starboard Deck sandwich and cup of clam chowder. My sandwich was wonderful, I wasn't sure I'd like the broccoli slaw on a sandwich but I did. The clam chowder was also very good.
My friend had the Garden Galley Salad and raved about it until the last bite!! I don't think you can find better counter service in all of WDW!!
Fri. 10/15 - Dinner at Cinderella's Royal Table
I wish we had done lunch here instead of dinner (except I would've missed my wonderful sandwich) because I think the lunch menu had much more to offer at much more reasonable prices.
I had the "Airline Chicken" and substituted mashed potatoes for the bread pudding (I have no idea why I did that) and all I can say is waaaaaay overpriced for something that tasted like a tv dinner. This was my worst meal. We should've gotten up and left when we met our waiter, he really should've been working at the Haunted Mansion!
By the way, my friend ordered the pork tenderloin with baked pasta and loved it. Darn it, I always order the wrong thing.
Saturday 10/16 - lunch at Le Cellier
Can I just say that I love this place!! We had cheese soup to start, along with the wonderful pretzel bread sticks. I had a huge craving for a burger and fries so that's what I got. But this wasn't any ole burger and fries, after all this was LeCellier!! I don't think I've ever had a better burger, and for 9.99 this was the best value meal of the trip.
My friend had the Grilled Portabello and Sweet Potato stack and said it was incredible!!
Saturday 10/16 - dinner Food and Wine Festival
Mostly had dessert!! Rice cream and and the macademia nut tart (I can't remember what country the tart was from, but the sauce that it was on was heavenly!!)
Sunday 10/17 - lunch at Tusker House
I had the Fried Chicken Sandwich and my friend had the salmon. We ate outside and listened to the drummers, it was wonderful! I take back what I said about CHH, this is the best counter service in all of WDW!
Sunday 10/17 - dinner at Boma
All I can say is WOW!! I loved this place and loved AKL, in fact I think I have to stay there next time. I should've written down all of the interesting things I ate because now I don't remember them. It was so much fun trying things that I would never have had the opportunity to try! And you should've seen our dessert plates! We used the big ones and filled them to overflowing but ate every last bite!! I highly recommend this restaurant, it was wonderful.
Monday 10/18 - breakfast at Kona Cafe
I had planned on getting the banana pecan pancakes but they have been replaced by pineapple macadamia nut pancakes. I was very hesitant to try them but oh my they were wonderful. I asked for my pinapple on the side which worked out great. They also came with choice of meat and I chose ham, boy was I surprised to see the huge slab of meat they served me!!
My friend had eggs benedict and she said it was very good.
Monday 10/18 - lunch at Earl of Sandwich
We got sandwiches to take with us to the airport, so by the time we ate them they were no longer very warm but they were very very good and I love the bread. I had the one that had Turkey and apple smoked bacon!
That's it except for a few snacks here and there. I guess this turned out to be not so quick!! I should add that everywhere we went, except for CRT, we had great service.
