A Whirlwind of Eats and Treats!: April 2015 Dining Report (w/ F&G)- COMPLETED

[squeegee]

Om nom nom. I wish I had room in my plans for Boma. It's on my list for my someday adults-only trip with hubby.

 

[vettegirl]

Love Boma!!!

Hi, Tracy! Welcome to the drool-inducing world of Dining Reports!

I blame you if I acquire a new addiction to dining reports now!

Oh my gosh, Billie, did you EVER deserve that drink - holy cow, I'm sweating just thinking of the close call you had!!! That would have been terrible had you missed that ADR! But thankfully you didn't! The food looks yummy! And of course, the desserts would have been my favorite

following, looking forward to your report

I secretly read your last dining report and am happy to be joining this one as well. When we started talking about dining for this upcoming trip Boma was on there (by my DH) and only lost out at the last minute to Sanaa...looking at the pictures I am hoping we made the right choice...Disney food sometimes makes me have ADR remorse

 

[ThistleMae]

Love the photo's. Made me drool! I always do Boma on my first night. It is the best way to start my vacation. I not only love the food, but the atmosphere is to die for! Keep the reports coming! And....good for you going solo....I'm working my way toward that myself.

watching!

Hooray!

That drink sounds wonderful and spot on after the drive!

It was EXACTLY what I needed to calm myself down!

What is fufu? It sounds fun whatever it is!

It's basically mashed sweet potatoes with coriander and cinnamon.

I have yet to try a zebra dome, but I hear they are delicious!

You must, you must! Even if you don't want to throw down for dinner at Boma, you can get them in grab-n-go 4-pack at the Mara, AKLs quick-service place.

Ooh, lovely Boma photos!

Thank you!

I just can't resist a good 'ol food report thread! Yummy!!

Right?! Love that food porn!

I'm here to read about all the deliciousness!! Too bad that lime cheesecake was disspointing...it sure "looked" good..sigh. But everything else sounds pretty amazing. I've been debating about whether or not to take my DD (age 9) there next time we go...but I'm not sure...

Gooooo! There's quite a few "tame" options for less adventurous eaters, I promise!

I'm here!! Loved your last dining report. Hope you had a great trip.

Thanks for following again!

Om nom nom. I wish I had room in my plans for Boma. It's on my list for my someday adults-only trip with hubby.

You have to try it as soon as you can! It's amazeballs!

Love Boma!!!

Me too!!!

I blame you if I acquire a new addiction to dining reports now!

I'll bear that cross happily.

Oh my gosh, Billie, did you EVER deserve that drink - holy cow, I'm sweating just thinking of the close call you had!!! That would have been terrible had you missed that ADR! But thankfully you didn't!

I would have been furious, and that would have been a truly awful way to start my trip. I was SO thankful that it worked out!

The food looks yummy! And of course, the desserts would have been my favorite

It was all so super delicious!!

following, looking forward to your report

Hi, and welcome!

Oh my, that drink looks heavenly. I'm sure that if I can EVER convince DH that I would not force him into day after 16 hour day of forced marches and dashing from ride to ride (which I actually don't do, but he doesn't believe me), that Boma would be one of his top restaurant picks. I will remember this if I ever need to tip the scales in convincing him - it may be my secret weapon...

Feel free to use my photos to help convince him!

I secretly read your last dining report and am happy to be joining this one as well.

Well hello! Glad to have you back for this one!

When we started talking about dining for this upcoming trip Boma was on there (by my DH) and only lost out at the last minute to Sanaa...looking at the pictures I am hoping we made the right choice...Disney food sometimes makes me have ADR remorse

I've considered Sanaa a couple of times, but when I look over their menu, it's clearly more Indian-inspired... and I'm not a fan of Indian food. So I stick to my beloved Boma, trip after trip.

Love the photo's. Made me drool!

Good! Food porn is supposed to bee drool-worthy!

I always do Boma on my first night. It is the best way to start my vacation. I not only love the food, but the atmosphere is to die for! Keep the reports coming!

Yaaaaasss! I love Boma. I've always done dinner, but I tried it for my departure day breakfast in September, and it was AMAZING. Planning on doing that again for my next trip.

And....good for you going solo....I'm working my way toward that myself.

I love my solo trips. I get so much done in so little time! I love the freedom to just go and do as I please. It's the best!

Rawr, meat, om nom nom!

Can't wait for more

Incoming!

Mmm! Boma is my favorite Disney buffet. The food and desserts are making my mouth water. That salmon looks delicious and so up my alley with the olives. The desserts looks awesome, too. Too bad the key lime cheesecake was better than it looks. Looking forward to more.

I really couldn't get over how super delicious the salmon was. It all was, really. I've had a lot of Boma meals, but this was definitely one of the best experiences so far!

Breakfast

After checking in, I knew I was going to be ready for some breakfast! So I headed over and start perusing my selections...

And snapped a few more photos of the place...

And then finally ordered, settling on this mountain of yummy...

The "Create Your Own" Breakfast Bowl. I got mine with potatoes, scrambled eggs, ham, sausage, bacon, mushrooms, and double cheese. It was delicious! And so freakin' filling!

But... I had to make a little more room, because I'm at POFQ so I am obligated to try...

...the ubiquitous beignets! They were good. I don't know that it's necessarily something I would order again, but I'm definitely glad that I tried them!

Dinner

I hadn't planned on having dinner here, but the way my day worked out, it was just the most convenient option. I'm really glad that I did, though, because it was super delicious!

Fried Chicken & BBQ Ribs Combo, with Red Beans, Mashed Potatoes w/ Gravy, and Cornbread.

And a vanilla Cupcake for dessert! Yum!

 

[STLMickeyMom]

Not order the beignets again?!!? I may have to stop reading right now.....nah!!! We loved them when we went. There may have been a skirmish over dividing the last one evenly....

Your breakfast bowl looks amazing!

 

[squeegee]

Before we decided to change to CR, we were going to stay at POR, and I was looking forward to the beignets. I thought I'd have to make a trip out there special, but if they're just ok, not mind blowing, i might just save myself the trip.

I probably shouldn't tell you then that I only ate 2 of mine, and had to throw the 3rd one away. I hope we can still be friends!

Your breakfast bowl looks amazing!

It tasted amazing! Well. Almost amazing. Gravy would have made it PERFECT.

I don't know that I would make a special trip all the way to POFQ for them, but I would say that if you're ever staying at either PO resort, they're certainly worth checking out!

 

[KathyM2]

That breakfast bowl looked so good and kinda different...I'm gonna check out the menu...are there a lot of options for what you can get in the bowls?

 

[cinderkelly]

I have to admit we thought the beignets there are just "ok". We are total beignet snobs though, having had them several times at Cafe Du Monde in New Orleans it just ain't the same. But the chicken and ribs combo....total yummo!
