"Amuck, amuck, amuck!" A Pre-TR (link to TR in the first post)

[mommaU4]

Thank you travelmel and Cristabel for your input. I really appreciate it! It's so nice to get others opinions on things like that.


Blue Ribbon Bakery:
I've been in here so many times and the line was always so long that I turned and walked back out, but I've seen pics of the goodies from there and decided on this trip I want to try something if for no other reason then to say I did. LOL


French Market:
This place has a new menu which I am eager to try. I've never eaten there before so I won't miss the old menu the way some people do. Apparently they had great fried chicken before.

I'm torn between the:

Plantation Citrus Chicken - Roasted chicken breast seasoned with citrus and cajun spices. Served with smashed potatoes, seasonal vegetables and cheddar corn bread. $12.99
OR
Four-Cheese Pasta and Vegetable Gratin - A creamy blend of cheddar, smoked gouda, provolone and asiago surrounding tender pasta and smooth, subtle bites of Shiitake mushroom and cauliflower florets. Served with seasonal vegetables and cheddar corn bread. $12.49

They both sound good to me.


Riverbelle Terrace:
I've eaten there in the past, but not since they reopened. I'm curious to try their new sandwiches and see what they are like. I think they are pricey at $12-$13 but I think I'd like to try the turkey one.

Actually what I was thinking of doing is getting one sandwich from there and one chili bread bowl from Golden Horseshoe and splitting that with Ruben. Then we can each try both of those without getting too full.

Anyone ever had the chili bread bowl? It was supposed to be Walt's favorite.


Taste Pilot's Grill:
We've eaten here before and liked it pretty well. I'm not much of a burger fan so I usually get one of the chicken sandwiches. Ok, ok, I usually get the Aviator's Chicken sandwich which is the fried one.

Thanks for the tip on the Bleu Cheese burger travelmel! I was actually looking at that on the menu even though I don't eat burgers very often. But now I will stick to my chicken sandwich. Ruben is a burger person though, but I'll make sure to tell him to steer clear of the Blue Cheese one.

Their fries are good too, and OMG they give you so much of them! Am I the only one who likes to dip them in the BBQ sauce they have there?

But this time I'm also wondering about the Full Throttle Fries - Criss-Cut Fries prepared with TLC and everything we've got - Cheddar cheese, chili, diced onions, chopped tomatoes and sour cream $5.49.

Those sound really good! I wonder if they are though.....


Carnation Cafe:
We've also eaten here before and really liked it. It was in December and Ruben ordered a turkey pot pie with bits of cranberry in it. He said it was very good, which is really high praise from him since he usually doesn't say much about Disneyland food. LOL

I'm also planning to try the Loaded Baked Potato soup which I've heard is delicious. And the kids like the make your own PB and J sandwiches there.


Cafe Orleans:
I am very excited to try this place! I've always wanted to, but the menu doesn't appeal to the rest of my family so I'm happy that I'll get to try it out with some of the fabulous DIS Divas!!



White Water Snacks:
Never eaten here either, but I've heard good things about it so I'm going to give it a try. I like that the drinks are refillable and I've seen pics of the nachos and they look yummy.



Rainforest Cafe:
OK, I have to admit I like it here, but I think that's because my kids enjoy it so much so that makes me happy. I've heard reports of really bad service and I think if we'd experienced that then I'd be turned off too. But so far we've been lucky and our servers have always been wonderful. I hope this time is as good as the others. (fingers crossed!)

Oh, and I usually get an appetizer as my meal so it's not as expensive as some of their entrees which do seem overpriced. The pita quesadillas are good and filling.



Ariel's Grotto:
I'm going into this place with very low expectations. It sounds funny to say that but I've heard many bad reports on their service and so-so food. So I'm not expecting much at all.

Why go then? Well, because I admit it, I am a Princess fan and I just have to see for myself what it's like. If nothing else, I'm hoping to get some really special shots of the twins in their Princess dresses with the Princesses.




Of course all of this is subject to change. And in the time between now and October it probably will. I get bored, or start to second guess something and then go and rearrange all my plans. Drives my poor husband crazy.

I love, love, love the Rainforest Cafe', but I know most people don't. I ALWAYS end up getting the exact same thing though. ((Chicken Fried Chicken))) Sooooo Yummy. Every single time I run into a RainForest Cafe' I HAVE to go, so I can eat this dish.

Hi there. How did I miss this post?? I must have been slowly typing out mine.

Thanks for posting that pic!! I was looking at the Chicken Fried Chicken on their menu last time and ended up going with my old favorite the quesadillas. I am so unadventurous. Or maybe we're just loyal.

That does look good.

Darn, with all this food talk my stomach is starting to growl!!!

Must be good now...................so I can splurge at Disney.

 

[mommaU4]

I found some of these Halloween clips of Maxine (you know the crabby old lady on those Hallmark cards) and thought they were good for a laugh. I just love her sarcasm.

 

[DisneyLaura]

plus lots of snacks like corn dogs, Tinkerbell Twists, Mickey pretzels, Dole Whips, etc.

What are Tinkerbell Twists? I have only been to WDW so I can't be any help about eating at Disneyland, so sorry. But everything sounds good.

Looks yummy. Oh and I just noticed your siggy about Twilight, I the series. I got hooked on them from another thread (they all were reading them so I joined the ban wagon). Are you so excited for Saturday? I am. I already told my cousin she's coming to see the movie when it comes out with me.

Sorry I your pre TR Beth

I am soooooo excited!!!! So saturday I'll be busy reading all day. I met Stephenie Meyer a couple of months ago and got all my Twlight books signed. She's so amazing.

Tinkerbell Twists are the drink I talked about in my last TR, and they are so good! It's like a slushie, made with sour apple and sour watermelon flavors. A friend of mine told me about them and I liked them so much I ordered several during our last trip to DL.

I'm not sure where all they are sold, but the ones I got were from DCA at the cart in Bug's Land and the cart near the entrance to the Orange Stinger.

Here's a pic:

Oh, and no worries about the thread.

Ohhhhhhhhhhhh I am SOOOOO getting one of those!!

 

[mommaU4]

Ohhhhhhhhhhhh I am SOOOOO getting one of those!!

You definitely should! Hopefully it wasn't just a summer thing. And let me know what you think about it.

 

[wendylady36]

Oh yeah, I can totally feel the sarcasm in that sentence.
If you made it out to DL in October that would be GREAT!

We are doing a mini meet with some of the ladies on October 17 for dinner at Cafe Orleans. So far that's the only concrete plan I have. But you are more then welcome to join us if you'd can.

The Marie PJ's were for Lindsey and honestly I don't think she knows who that is either. She picked it out from all the ones on sale, but I think it was because she likes cats, not because of the actual character.

Mamma Mia was GREAT!!!! I loved it. Very good. Meryl Streep was excellent as always. Actually I thought the whole cast was perfect in their roles.

I've seen the play here in Vegas so I was really excited to see the movie too, and it was just as good, if not better. I was never a fan of ABBA. In fact when we bought the tickets to see the play I almost backed out and was going to sell them!
But I decided last minute to go ahead and check it out and I am so glad I did. I love the music and it fits into the story line so well. The girls all liked it too.

It's definitely a musical though. Seems like every 5 minutes someone is breaking into song, so if you don't like musicals, don't go. LOL The girls really liked it too, but then they knew the songs ahead of time from me always playing them on youtube.

I've just started looking at hotels. I think it might be a possibility for me to make it to the mini meet. I just have to get over the fact that I will be all by myself (...don't wanna be all by myself, anymore).

Thanks for telling me how Mama Mia was! If I don't have to go into work tomorrow then I'm definitely hitting the movie theaters.
And yes, I do love musicals!

That does look good.

Hurry, go drink some water!

Dining List

breakfast snacks one morning at Blue Ribbon Bakery

They have some pretty good stuff there, but my mom does own a bakery so of course I like her baked goods better.

French Market

Never eaten here

Riverbelle Terrace

Love their breakfast!

Taste Pilot's Grill

I don't eat hamburgers and I don't like chicken sandwiches, so I tend to stay away from here.

Carnation Cafe

I LOVE the baked potato soup and I think the pretzel bread is way yummy.

Cafe Orleans (this one will be with some of the DIS ladies!)

I've never been here either, but I hope I get to in October!

White Water Snacks

I think I may have eaten here once when the GC first opened, but just got cookies.

Rainforest Cafe

I'm not a fan of this place. I'm a VERY picky eater and there aren't many options for me here.

Ariel's Grotto

Worst service ever! I didn't like the food either. It was such a disappointment for me. My nieces enjoyed the princesses though.

plus lots of snacks like corn dogs, Tinkerbell Twists, Mickey pretzels, Dole Whips, etc.

Mmmmm...good choices. Don't forget the churros!

Water??? Blech! Oh, but don't tell Sarah over on the WISH thread. Nah, I've been good with my water today, and I'm getting better at it.

Thanks for your input on the dining. I'm always open to suggestions and comments. But I have to ask if you don't eat burgers or chicken sandwiches, what the heck do you eat??

I hope you can make it in October!!!! It's going to be fun. I mean it will be a quickie, at least for me because I'll have my family with me and I can't ditch them for too long, but I'll definitely be there for the dinner and some rides afterwards.

I'm so bummed POTC won't be open though. That would have been an awesome ride for the whole group to go on together. I can't think of any other ride that would work out as well.

Let me know what you think when you do see Mamma Mia! I loved it. I'd go see it again if I could and I never say that about movies cause I'm too cheap. LOL

If you like musicals, did you by any chance watch Legally Blonde the Musical: The Search for Elle Woods?
http://www.mtv.com/ontv/dyn/legally_blonde_search_for_elle_woods/series.jhtml
It was on MTV and I'm not usually into those sort of reality shows, but I got sucked in and then really liked watching the performance scenes with all the singing and dancing. Now I really want to see the play! Too bad it's in NY.

Oh well, maybe one day they'll bring it to Vegas.

 

[wendylady36]

Water??? Blech! Oh, but don't tell Sarah over on the WISH thread. Nah, I've been good with my water today, and I'm getting better at it.

I've had over a gallon of water today. I just can't seem to get enough.

Thanks for your input on the dining. I'm always open to suggestions and comments. But I have to ask if you don't eat burgers or chicken sandwiches, what the heck do you eat??

CHURROS, of course! And mickey pretzels w/cheese, lol. There is VERY little food in Disneyland that I like, especially now that they've gotten rid of all the trans fat.

I hope I can make it too! I was checking out flights and I can get them for about $70 each way and I was looking at HoJo (never stayed there before) and they have a room that is pretty much in my budget. Plus I have an AP and I want to use it some more! It would be nice to meet the girls that are going too.

I'm so bummed POTC won't be open though. That would have been an awesome ride for the whole group to go on together. I can't think of any other ride that would work out as well.

I hear that ToT is pretty good for groups. You did say that was your favorite ride in the park, right?

Let me know what you think when you do see Mamma Mia! I loved it. I'd go see it again if I could and I never say that about movies cause I'm too cheap. LOL

I'm cheap when it comes to movies too! I always buy my tickets at Costco!

Oh well, maybe one day they'll bring it to Vegas.

I loved the movie Legally Blonde and I was SO flippin' excited when I heard there was going to be a play. I did watch The Search for Elle Woods, it was so great. Whenever the girls would perform I held my breath through their whole routine, I never wanted them to mess up! MTV aired the play, but I missed it. I think I heard somewhere that they were planning on touring it, so hopefully we'll both get to see it!

A gallon????

CHURROS, of course! And mickey pretzels w/cheese, lol. There is VERY little food in Disneyland that I like, especially now that they've gotten rid of all the trans fat.

Of course. I should have known. I mean really, what more do you need?

I hope I can make it too!

Plus I have an AP and I want to use it some more! It would be nice to meet the girls that are going too.

That is a great deal on the flight! Or at least it seems like it to me. LOL Do you have an entertainment card? You can get a good deal with those at the HoJo sometimes.

I hear that ToT is pretty good for groups. You did say that was your favorite ride in the park, right?

So you think you're funny...... hey, look over there!

I loved the movie Legally Blonde and I was SO flippin' excited when I heard there was going to be a play. I did watch The Search for Elle Woods, it was so great.

Were you happy with the winner? I thought she was just so young. I actually kind of liked Emma, the one who got sick part way through. She looked a lot like Reese Witherspoon too.
I'd love it if there was a touring version that came here!! I think Noelle my 11 yr old would love it too. She watched the show as well.

Those sound really good! I wonder if they are though.....

The loaded fries at Taste Pilots sound good BUT.... Del Taco has a REALLY good loaded chili fry as well! Keep that in mind.

Carnation Cafe... WOW those sound really, REALLY good!

Rainforest Cafe: that chicken fried chicken may turn me around. Between that and the duck-butt bar seats.... I mean I guess I was a little harsh...

Hey, does anybody know if the pretzel bread at DL is the same or simliar to the one at WDW... MAN that looks good!

Looking forward to hearing about the changes in mind

OH yea... and the pasta with mushrooms SOUNDS better but I'm always leary of "cauliflower bits." I like them but if they're WRONG...they can be VERY wrong.

Del Taco you say? Hmmmm.....

Ok, what are duck butt seats?? I've never sat at the bar in RFC so I have no clue what those are.

I love pasta, but yeah, the cauliflower bits had me worried too. So I'm not sure. I've seen pics of the citrus chicken meal and it looks really good so I might go with that.
At House of Blues they have a pasta there that is pretty good.

Wild Mushroom Pasta - with Penne, Shiitake, Oyster and Portobello Mushrooms, Chicken, and Smoked Gouda Cheese. $18.00

I got it when we ate there on the last Girls Only trip. But at $18 for one dish I would not be able to take my whole family there. Too expensive. Makes Rainforest Cafe look cheap!!! LOL

 

[mommaU4]

More random pics from last October's trip.


The Fireman's Band. That was the first time I'd ever seen them before in all my years of going there.

Happy Halloween!

We saw this sign right near one of the elevators in the Mickey and Friends parking garage. That would be kind of cool to win that. I always dread the long walk back to the car at the end of the night. Especially since we always seem to end up parking at the FAR BACK end of the lot!!

One of the many cats roaming around the parks. This one was in DCA. He was pretty friendly too. Came right up to me when I was sitting on a bench and batted at my fingers.

 

[mommaU4]

I just read on another board that during Halloween back in the Woody's Round up area, they have bat cookies and pumpkin cookies you can decorate!!!

(online pic, NOT mine)

How the heck did I miss that last October?

We did the Christmas themed ones in December:

And we've done the Castle ones over by the Princess Fantasy Faire:

The twins always have a GREAT time doing it, (the older two aren't really interested) so these Halloween ones are going on my to do list FOR SURE!

I love all the Fall and Halloween themed offerings during October. I'm also definitely planning to get some pumpkin fudge and if I drank coffee I might be tempted to get a pumpkin latte from Blue Ribbon Bakery.
I wonder if Sam Andreas Shakes over in DCA will have pumpkin flavored shakes? Now that would be interesting...... LOL

 

[DisneyLaura]

I am soooooo excited!!!! So saturday I'll be busy reading all day. I met Stephenie Meyer a couple of months ago and got all my Twlight books signed. She's so amazing.

You lucky duck you. Unfortunately I won't have my book on Saturday. I was silly and ordered it online and got a discounted price but they probably won't ship until Saturday. That's ok I'm rereading the other ones. I also heard her book The Host is awesome too.

Tinkerbell Twists are the drink I talked about in my last TR, and they are so good! It's like a slushie, made with sour apple and sour watermelon flavors. A friend of mine told me about them and I liked them so much I ordered several during our last trip to DL.

I'm not sure where all they are sold, but the ones I got were from DCA at the cart in Bug's Land and the cart near the entrance to the Orange Stinger.

Oh those sound and look yummolicious, have one for me I remember them now seeing the picture that I saw them on your last TR, silly me

OH, I am so doing this!!!

I just read on another board that during Halloween back in the Woody's Round up area, they have bat cookies and pumpkin cookies you can decorate!!!

Very cute. I agree you must do those.

I love pumpkin flavored things as well. That fudge sounds great. A pumpkin latte as well.

Do you like cheesecake? The Cheesecake Factory makes a pumpkin flavor that is seasonal. It is sooooo good. I'm just sayin......










OK, well now that I've made myself hungry with thoughts of cheesecake, I thought I'd mention that I have edited the 3rd post on page 1 of this thread to include a weight loss ticker. I am working hard to reach my goal before this trip, or at least come close to it. And I thought having a ticker here would help with that.

 

[DisneyLaura]

Do you like cheesecake? The Cheesecake Factory makes a pumpkin flavor that is seasonal. It is sooooo good. I'm just sayin......

Oh my that's great news because one of those opened literally 10 minutes away from my house. note to self get pumpkin cheesecake this fall

 

[mommaU4]

Oh my that's great news because one of those opened literally 10 minutes away from my house. note to self get pumpkin cheesecake this fall

Uh oh, that could be dangerous! We have one really close too. Less then 5 minutes in fact. It's a good thing they are so expensive or I'd be there way too often!!! LOL

Actually for today only all of their restaurants are celebrating 30 years of service so all cheesecake slices are only a $1.50 each. That is such an awesome deal since they usually run between $6 to $8 each.

Too bad it's dine in only or I might have had to break my diet for that!!

Here is the pumpkin cheesecake and the pumpkin pecan cheesecake they sell starting October 1st: (hope these pics show up, I just copied and pasted them from online)

Also if you have a Sam's Club, they sell a whole Cheesecake Factory pumpkin cheesecake for around $13. We usually get it to serve for Thanksgiving.

And for anyone reading this who's got a DL trip coming up and would like to go to the Cheesecake Factory, they opened one not far from DL at the Anaheim Garden Walk: http://www.anaheimgardenwalk.com/
