9/20/2008
Lunch: Toy Story Pizza Planet-Counter Service 1 credit used
Ordered Cheese Pizza, Salad, Large Sprite, and a Chocolate Chip Cookie.

View from our table on the 2nd floor

Would have spent: $12.75
The salad this year was a bit smaller then last year. Overall it was good. I'll eat there again I'm sure.

Dinner: Sci-Fi Dine-in Theater-Table Service 2 credits used

Ordered:
BLT Soup-Was so good. I'd go there again just to order the soup.

Onion Rings-Were good, basic onion rings

Steak-I ordered it without the glaze(hate glazes), but it still came out covered in it. I couldn't really eat more then a few bites (and our server came by so little it has hard to complain about it).

Beef & Blue Salad: Was good and exactly as discribed on the menu.

Strawberry Milkshake: Was too thick to order as a drink.
Would have spent: $60
Service was horrible. We sat there for 15 minutes before the server came to take our order. Then didn't want to take our order then, just drinks. Finally came back and took order and brought out our appetizers and went back to the kitchen. Brought our entrees and disappeared until about 20 minutes later when we just asked for the check no dessert ordered.
I'd go here again, but I'd order a different entree.

It was huge. I guess it was, it was so uneditble to me because of the glaze I didn't even notice .

My wife loved this soup so much that I have made it twice since we have been home. It is extremely easy to make.

Crystal Palace-Table Service 2 Credits used
Overall it was good as usual. I've eaten here for breakfast on every trip for the past 3 years.
Would have spent:48

Garden Grill-Table Service 2 Credits used
I didn't like the new menu. I loved the green beans it was my favorite part of the meal. The mash potatoes were good, and the characters were great as always. I'm going to visit this place for dinner in January I'll miss lunch, but hopefully dinner will be good.

Would have spent:$45

1900 Park Fare-Table Service 2 Credits used

I wasn't a fan. We went here to celebrate my dad's birthday with Drizella. I liked most the food off the kids bar. I loved the Strawberry Soup.

Would have spent: $64

Breakfast: Hollywood and Vine

Very standard breakfast fare. I ate a bit from the kids area. I don't eat egg yokes and I couldn't tell if you could get egg whites.
Would have spent: $49

Lunch: Yak and Yeti
One of the best meals of the week
Pork Egg Rolls - chili plum dipping sauce $7.99

My dad really enjoyed these. I didn't touch them, but he said they were very good.
Wok-Fried Green Beans - battered green beans, sweet Thai chili dipping sauce $6.99

These were so good. If I could get them here I would.
Lo Mein - Lo Mein noodles, carrots, cabbage, green onoins, bean sprouts; (I got veggie)

This was to die for. I'm not normally a fan of Lo Mein but this was soo good. I can't wait to go back
Duck with Anandapur Glaze - roasted half duckling, orange wasabi glaze, jasmine rice, stir-fried vegetables $21.99

My dad enjoyed it. Said it was one of the best ducks he's ever had.
Fried Wontons - Skewers of fresh pineapple and cream cheese wontons, vanilla ice cream, honey vanilla drizzle $7.99

I loved the Ice Cream and Strawberries. My dad enjoyed the wantons and pineapple.
One thing that made me a little uncomfortable with Yak and Yeti was that they take your card at the beginning and don't give it back until the end. so there isn't really a way to leave a tip on room key. (although the constant checking that we had DxDP everywhere was annoying, they apparently can't take your word for it)
Would have spent: $66 We know they only get 22.99 a person from Disney. (the receipt they had us sign had the price that they charge Disney on it, not what your total is)

Dinner: Hoop Dee Doo Review
We went to the 9:30pm Show and sat in Cat. 1.

I should warn that picky eaters should not eat here. I don't know if they offer anything for kids to eat. Our server was very rarely at our table. All I ate were some mashed potatoes and cornbread.
Would have Spent: 119.98

Breakfast: 1900 Park Fare

Very standard breakfast I really like the egg whites and French toast here.
Would have Spent: $49

Dinner: Liberty Tree Tavern

Dinner here was great as usual. Had an early dinner 4:15pm to finish dinner before MNSSHP started.

Apple Cobbler...Don't know what happened to the photos of the rest of the food.
Would have Spent: $62

9/24/2008
Breakfast: Cinderella Royal Table

I loved breakfast here. My dad loved it. My egg whites weren't very good, but I requested the kids french toast and it was to die for. I'd love to take BF here for our trip in December, but so far it's been full.
Dinner: Princess Storybook

Braised Pork Shank Garlic mashed potatoes and red wine sauce

Grilled Chicken Breast served with corn and boiled potatoes
It wasn't as good as my past few trips there.

Our server wasn't good at all. It took forever to get refills for drinks and at one point we had to ask a different server to get us drinks. I think part of the problem was we were a party of 2 and she got a table of 10 shortly after we came in and then a party of 4. She spent so much time getting drinks and orders from the other tables we just seemed to be forgotten.
Would have spent: $64

 

[Heidict]

Yak and Yeti looks soooooo good!! Can't wait for the rest.

 

[plutosgirl]

Great so far...now I'm thinking somewhere among my tons of ADRs I need to squeeze in yak & yetti!!!!

More please!!

 

[TigerKat]

I'm excited to try Y&Y's egg rolls and green beans....

 

[jeminni]

I agree those egg rolls and green beans do look delicious.

Lunch: Le Cellier
The Breads

Mixed Field Greens
the salad was very odd. It had citrus on it which I wasn't expecting and didn't like.

Canadian Cheddar Cheese Soup
I've heard very good things about this, even from my dad. I'm going to try this next I go.

Le Cellier Mushroom Filet Mignon w/o mushrooms and with mashed potaotos
I loved this. It came out Medium well and I ordered it well and I sent it back, but it was still really good when it came back out.

New York Strip Steak
My dad enjoyed this it came out well done and he ordered it medium well.

Chocolate "Moose" This was to die for. I wish there was more.

Campfire S’mores My dad didn't really enjoy this, but all he wanted was the ice cream. He's not much of a dessert eater.

Would have Spent: $90

Dinner: Poly Luau
We went to the 8:00pm Cat 2
We had pretty good seats. We were on the 2nd teir and only had 1 family in front of us. They showed up for the food and after it was over they left.
As a picky eater I ate some of the pineapple that came out at first. I got a kids hot dog for my entree and a fruit plate for dessert.
You may ask why I booked the Luau knowing I didn't like the menu. My dad requested it. He asks about it every now and then after going in 1995 with my mom. So I went for him. He really enjoyed it. Food and all.

Would have Spent: $110
