Are you sure this is our table?? *w/PICS* !COMPLETED!

[AlohaPolynesian]

Alright. I figured I can at least start with a couple reviews since sadly there are no photos

Belle and I arrived at All Star Sports for our first night at around 11:00PM. We were meeting my friend Aurora there in the morning to go check in at Animal Kingdom Lodge and then head over to EPCOT. Belle and I decided to eat breakfast in the food court for a quick, easy, and convenient meal.

Well, it was convenient. Definitely not quick or easy!

The lines were miles long, but we ate there anyway. Belle is a health nut and got a banana and yogurt. She said they were just your average banana and yogurt - not much to comment on there. I got the "Vegetarian Omelet" which is supposed to include an omelet with veggies, breakfast potatoes, a biscuit, sausage and bacon for a little less than $7.00. Except I subbed in extra potatoes for the meat that I didn't want on my plate. It was pretty good, although I wasn't expecting much from a food court. I did see them pour the bag of "eggs" into the container where they were making omelets, which kind of grossed me out. I'd rather not see them make it - I don't want to know where it comes from!

We also both got the AMAZING Nescafe! Just kidding. That stuff is bad. But not bad enough for me to not have my coffee in the morning! I usually don't put sugar in my coffee and just use flavored creamer. However, I definitely had to sweeten this up to drink it!

~Overall, Belle and I both agreed that this place was adequate. We just needed something to eat for breakfast before heading over to EPCOT, and it did the job.

*Off we went to EPCOT where we ate lunch at Sunshine Seasons and attempted to drink around the "World"...

OK, so we waited about 2 1/2 hours for Soarin' before heading over to Sunshine Seasons at around 1:30PM. I really wanted that Strawberry Shortcake, so I decided that having a Caesar salad would make me feel less guilty when I ate the entire piece of cake for dessert. Because I was NOT going to share that thing! Belle got the Beet and Goat Cheese salad, which she finished. Aurora got the Turkey and Muenster cheese sandwich, which she really liked. Another plus was that it wasn't very crowded and we easily found a table.

The Caesar salad was fine, but I think my Diet Coke tasted better. Besides, I really just wanted that cake!

~Overall, we all enjoyed Sunshine Seasons and would go back for lunch in the future. ESPECIALLY for that cake!!

*Next, PICTURES BEGIN as we do drinks around the World Showcase and I fell in love

So after lunch, Belle, Aurora, and I started to drink around the World Showcase. I realized now that I only have pictures of two of those drinks…. Oops. HOWEVER, I do have photos from the rest of the trip of the drinks we tried . So, I’ll just do a section on drinks later rather than only show the two from the WS right here. And so I begin the review for Tutto Italia! Here is a photo I attempted to take of the inside:

After trying drinks from many of the different pavilions in the World Showcase, we headed over to Tutto Italia in Italy for dinner. I was SO full from all of the big, frozen drinks we had so I didn’t really feel like eating. I seriously probably only had 3 bites of my meal, but it was very, very good.

First they brought bread and this bowl of olives and whatnot to our table. Yeah, I’m 25% Italian so I should probably know what that “whatnot” really is. But I don’t. Here it is:

Then our waiter, Maurizio, took our orders – drinks and food – and brought out our food five minutes (LITERALLY!) later when he brought out our wine! This was fine, and some people might like this quick service. But I’ve been walking around all day and want to sit down and relax for a bit. I don’t want to feel rushed through my meal, thank you! Anyways, onto the food…

I ordered the Tagliatelle alla Primavera, which AllEars describes as being tagliatelle egg pasta with zucchini, broccoli, peas, mushrooms, and tomatoes in a light cream sauce for $24. I think this was about right. I also had a glass of the Pinot Grigio that Maurizio recommended – can’t remember the name though. Here’s the photo:

Belle ordered what I’m thinking AllEars has online as the Paccheri, which is pasta tubes with calamari, green peas, garlic, herbs, and olive oil for $25. As you can see from the photo, there also was a tomato sauce on Belle’s pasta. She loved this and ate every last bite – then soaked up the rest with bread! Here’s the photo:

Aurora ordered some kind of Ravioli but I don’t see that on the menu at all. All I know is that there was meat on there, so I didn’t try any. She also loved her meal and ate everything that was on her plate. Here’s the photo:

Finally, Aurora and Belle ordered the chocolate cake. I was too full to even look at it, so there’s no photo. Oops.

~Overall, we thought that Tutto Italia was very good. I didn’t eat much of my pasta, but that was NOT because I didn’t like what I ordered – I was just full! I thought this was very expensive for a meal, but would probably go back if I were on the DDP. We also felt very rushed, so hopefully next time we would be able to take our time.

I agree, Tutto's prices are outrageous.
