Just a few more updates from yesterday to post, the first one a snack update from DisneyMamato4.
She and her family were at Epcot and headed to France...
Here's what they chose...
Chocolate Eclair, Napoleon, and Duo Au Chocolate
I was curious about the Duo au Chocolat so I found this fairly detailed description: The base is a chocolate cake, which has a small heap of chocolate mousse dolloped on top of it in the middle. Surrounding the cake and mousse is a dome of white chocolate custard, it was also described as a mousse, but it definitely has more of a custard texture. To top this chocolate, chocolate, chocolate dome, the Duo au Chocolat is dusted with cocoa powder, given a drizzle of chocolate sauce, and decorated with a chocolate ring.
"She loved the cream out of the Napoleon!"

"All of the kids had the grilled chicken. They all devoured the chicken, which I tried and was very good. The rice was good too but none of them touched the green beans and carrots."
Here's what they chose...
I think this might be the Bananas Foster Cheesecake with Candied Walnut Tuile and Rum-Caramel Sauce?
This is maybe the Hazelnut Gianduja Chocolate Cake with Salted Caramel Sauce and Chocolate Crispies?
Marshmallow Chocolate Tart with Graham Cracker Crust and Chocolate Sauce
Kids Make your own Sundae
"Dessert was so good! The best though was the chocolate hazelnut cake...amazing. The s'mores tart and banana cheesecake were very good also and the kids loved making their sundaes."
"And when you are done with dessert and need something to do...
...you make a fork tower."
"What an awesome hidden gem! The wait staff was incredible and we had so much fun. And the food was pretty good too. We will definitely eat here again. I don't see too many reviews here and there were plenty of empty tables but this place is a restaurant to check out for sure!"

"The Crunky bar! Has anyone ever tried one of these?"
Yes! I bought the sardines on our last trip to give to my dad. He tried about 3 and then said I could keep the rest.. lol. I tried a few, they weren't horrible but definitely had a fishy taste to them and very crunchy. The amount of sodium in them was absolutely insane. I ended up throwing them out after they sat on our counter for a few days..
And that just leaves a couple of updates sent to us last night by disnmooner2013.
For breakfast yesterday, he and his wife dined at...
Crystal Palace
"This is a pic of my wife with her complimentary birthday cupcake with Eeyore from Crystal Palace on Wednesday. Our waitress Sherri went above and beyond exceptional service as she went out of her way to make sure before we left that Eeyore (even though we had already had pictures with him once) was the one that delivered my wife's birthday card and complimentary cupcake; since Eeyore is her favorite character. Sorry no other food pics from Crystal Palace were more there for seeing Eeyore and his friends."
Then they had lunch at...
Columbia Harbour House
"Here are my pics of the fried shrimp and chicken nuggets meals from Columbia Harbour House on Wednesday."
