21 hours in Disney for the Dining Gastronomes on Thanksgiving

[Subrbnmommy]

After the turkey and the lamb I don't think that it woulb be a consomme. I'm thinking more a palate cleanser of sorts. My money is on something alcoholic...

 

[janetmojo]

Almost looks like some kind of aspic or gelatin made with a beef stock?

 

[luvpooh]

some sort of apple cider or wine?

 

[NYPOOH]

I'd go with it being a broth or some kind of hard cider.

I can't wait to read more!! Your review is awesome!!

 

[BriarRosie]

What? No guess as to the mystery item from Thanksgiving?

I'm not sure what's on the bottom of the spoon, but I thought it looked like
a marsh crab...

 

[Grumpy_Disney_Dad]

Good eyes Briar . It does appear to be a little crab like you sometimes find in oysters

 

[PaDisneyCouple]

I love reading these reviews. I then relay the info to DW each night. We've never dined at V&A, and hope to during our next WDW visit. Perhaps in 2008. Mr Disney, should we try for Chef's Table right off the bat, or try the Main room?

Hmmm, a guess...cognac?

 

[gigi1313]

my guess is that it is a sauce for something, cherry cider reduction possibly? or perhaps an armagnac or madeira wine... although the odd presentation in a glass 'spoon' is what confuses me the most... was it actually served just like that? was it an accompaniement to something else?

 

[Grumpy_Disney_Dad]

i think i figured it out
It is a crab and sherry consomee

Do I get partial credit if you got it right?

 

[Grumpy_Disney_Dad]

Of course you do silly

 

[gigi1313]

GDD, methinks you've got it!

 

[Mr. D's K-Man]

OK, so where were we. before we got interupted by Holiday parties and anniversaries?

OH yeah FOOD.....glorious.......FOOD....

OK.....So we're going to do a HOLIDAY CONTEST.....

Here is a "mystery" photo from our Thanksgiving Dinner.....

The person who respond correctly with what it is.....will win a SPECIAL HOLIDAY PRIZE from Mister Disney and Mr. D's K-Man!

I KNOW

I KNOW

But I promised to keep it a secret ... nope, nope, nope!

And there will be no hostage takings ...

 

[Subrbnmommy]

What, 24hrs and we still don't know!!! I'm really curious!

On a more serious note, I always enjoy reading your reviews, they're informative, entertaining and very descriptive. Kinda makes me miss V & A, which pre DD, was always a must when we went to WDW. Keep it coming!!!!

 

[kaceyisme]

I'm leaving this afternoon and now I'll be kept in suspense until we get back!

 

[Grumpy_Disney_Dad]

Ok Mr Ludwig von Disney... This is way to long to make someone with the name of Grumpy wait to finish reading a thread with Gnome in the title. I am suffering from epicurean withdrawals now

He's probably shopping for your Christmas present.
I'm sure the guys are busy with holidays. I hope we don't have to
wait much longer for the next installment, though.

Thanks for the review.

 

[mom2ee]

PLEASE tell us more....

 

[mlill]

I'm baaack! Guess who was asked to dine at the Chef's Table for Christmas Eve!?! By the way, Israel says, "Hi!" We had two magical dinners at V&A. I'm still in shock!

Happy New Year!
