Eaters- my three friends and myself. However, I don't remember everything they ate so I'll just list what I ate!
3/13- Dinner at Rainforest Cafe in DTD. This place was packed beyond belief. Luckily we had a reservation- the wait was hours long. The system was awful, though. The line for people who had reservations was really long and slow, and a woman in front of us was a few minutes late for her seating time because she had been waiting in the line, and her reservation was cancelled. But I really loved the food. I had the planet earth pasta which was awesome. The dinner salad had the best vinaigrette dressing ever. Dessert was at Ghirardelli's. I had a brownie sundae and it was pretty good. This place gets mobbed!
3/14- Lunch at Pecos Bill's in MK. What a circus, what an ordeal. The lines were huge to begin with, and they do the alternating thing from each side of the cashier. It was going really slowly, and then I guess the computer system for the whole place went down. Nothing happened for a long while. Finally a manager-type person came in and I saw him yelling at the CMs. Long wait to get the food after you ordered it. Really good hot dog but I could have gone somewhere else. Dinner was at ESPN. The chili dog was pretty good, but there's something really bland about this place and its service and food that I can't pinpoint. I had the hockey puck for dinner and it was just okay.
3/15- Lunch at Beaches and Cream. Oh my god. Food bliss. I ordered the double burger with onion rings. It was the best burger I've ever had. Then I ordered a brownie sundae, minus whipped cream, plus peanut butter topping. Amazing. I loved this place so much. Dinner was at Lotus Blossom Cafe in China (counter service.) I had the beef fried rice and it was quite good. The CMs at this place were extremely sweet and I felt good eating here. We stopped for a 1030pm snack at Beaches and Cream (addicted!) and I had a burger again. Excellent.
3/16- Lunch at 50s Primetime Cafe. I thought I'd really like this place but it was just okay for me. I had the ham sandwich and it was pretty good. The server wasn't great and didn't try to be funny like the others. I had Dad's Super Sundae for dessert and it was alright, I guess. Dinner was at Spoodles. This place was very blah for me as well. There was almost no one in the place at all and it was silent. Most of the menu was too weird for my limited and boring tastes so I got the mozzarella/basil pizza and it was okay.
3/17- Lunch at Sunshine Season Food Fair in the Land at Epcot. This place was really great and a good value! I had the linguine with meatballs. It came with a big breadstick, a side salad, and a cookie. It was 8 or 9 dollars with a drink. Everything tasted great and I was definitely impressed. Except the station didn't open until 1130 and we waited with other people from 1115 on and it was sort of annoying. I'm not a breakfast person, so when I'm at the parks I enjoy an earlier lunch. Dinner was at the Contemporary's Food and Fun Center- we had dinner reservations but were running low on cash and decided to just stop there while exploring other resorts and cancelled the other PS. The chili dog was good, but the place seemed very silent and depressing. If it were more lively, I would have liked it more.
3/18- Lunch at Tony's Town Square in MK. I know this place gets a lot of bad reviews, and I won't claim that it's real Italian, but I enjoyed it well enough. A barbershop quartet serenaded us in the waiting room and all the Tony's CMs gathered for the restaurant's opening. The salad was fine, the spaghetti was excellent. Dinner was at Wolfgang Puck Cafe. A disappointing place. The servers seemed very snooty and fake. My margherita pizza was fine, but I felt uncomfortable and sort of wanted to leave. Later that night we stopped at Beaches and Cream in order to really make our last meal a great one, since Puck's didn't do it for us.
3/19- Breakfast at the Orlando airport! I had spaghetti and meatballs at Sbarro at 930am and it was great.
It was a great trip and I had a great time eating, overall! Thanks for reading
