Christmas Special Treats/Meals & Festive Food Reviews-What's Good, What's Not So Good

Today I had the Barbacoa Tamal de Res with Oaxaca cheese, tomatillo salsa, and crema from the Grandma’s Recipes festival booth in DCA. Flavors were great and the portion was pretty decent. The meat was a little dry in mine. I’d get it again though. It was tasty and filling.

We also ordered the fresh baked gingerbread cookies from Harbor Galley in DL. Holy COW!!! Those were amazing. Far superior to the Mickey gingerbread (which I love). We forgot to take a photo of those.

We bought some Mickey gingerbread from the GCH cart and didn't think they were anything special. I quickly ordered some Harbour Galley cookies and everyone loved those. We had dinner at Carthay Circle. The steak is always good. For that price ($75) they could add a side or two. It had a half dozen pieces of squash. The chicken was good but not worth twice what you pay for a half chicken at other restaurants in the parks.

Kugel mac and cheese was very disappointing. It was swimming in grease (when we get close to the bottom we saw a thick layer of oil) and did not have much flavor. Would not recommend unless we somehow got a dud.

Oh no! WE were planning on having that when we go, it was great 2 years ago! So sorry it was not good.
