Disney dangled the visual weinee & Mickeystoontown gobbled it up! 10/26

[mickeystoontown]

The steaks look so good I may have to try coral reef one of these days.

I can't stand when I see 1 grumpy person with a bunch of happy people I mean common you are in Disney!

Everything was delicious! Coral Reef has never let us down.

That's what I'm saying! Why can't you at least pretend to be happy?

Ya know, one year we ate at Coral Reef and Dave said it was the best steak he had that whole trip! Yours looked good!!
at your observation of scowling lady!!

I suppose the "too cute" turtle cheesecake picture was one that would not upload - stupid photo bucket!!

I don't understand why one person wants to be unhappy and possibly throw off the whole "we are having fun" vibe.

It was one of them but I'm trying it one more time to see if it will upload. If it does, then I'll go back and edit the post.

I tried uploading it again and it worked! See the turtle picture in the above post!

We had the same situation with the manatees too...and Claire also stated it was so cute they were hugging....and if those are 2 boys....um they don't behave that way! But I think animals feel frisky with the same sex too. I know our cows are all girls, but when in heat.....they are quite frisky with each other.

Dinner looks fabulous. We have still not made it there...another on my bucket list. Epcot has so many places I want to try and home to one of my favorites...Via Napoli, so it's so hard to chose where to go.

I am always tempted whenever I see one of your reviews of the Coral Reef. It has been a few years since we have been there, but it used to be a must-do. I think main reason we stopped is that we often found service slow- too much park time. But the food was always good.

Your meals all looked excellent and you are correct- the turtle cheesecake was beyond cute! (But never too cute to consume)

And you had dinner & a show. People watching is just the best bargain in entertainment!

Yummmmmm now I know what to order if we go to the Coral Reef, that turtle cheesecake looks delicious !

 

[amandaw]

Those steaks looks so nice & big! And the lobster pasta sounds delicious!

But that turtle cheesecake.....sooooo cute!!

Glad y'all had a nice dinner!

Yum, your dinners looked good! We ate at the Coral Reef on our honeymoon 11 years ago, I am hoping to go back when we don't have to hit all the character meals for our kiddos.

I got the same exact meal when I was there in May! I too enjoyed my food, but that turtle cheesecake was by far the best dessert I had the entire trip. I loved the way they made it look like a turtle, and every bite and ingredient in it was divine.

A real life cotton tree! Who knew. I can't wait to share that with my mom. She won't believe me.

Your dinner looked amazing. I have not eaten at the Coral Reef in over 20 years. It looks like I might just have to rethink that! The turtle was so cute.

 

[IheartDDuck]

I tend to decide what I want to eat before we go to WDW also. It just makes things so much easier.

P....oops...whooped. Okay this made me laugh! And seriously, it's something that just drives me crazy. She sounds like such a treat to be around!

 

[Woth2982]

You are too funny with the cotton tree. I am going to assume since you are all alive and well it wasn't poison and you all survived the ordeal. Did you ever plant it when you got home? Your dinner looks like it was great! I am still in awe that Hunter is venturing out of the "Pizza Zone" and into the beef! Not sure I have ever had a waitress push the dessert that much before! Glad it didn't go to waste with John polishing it off!

 

[KatMark]

Lisa, so glad that you, John and Hunter enjoyed another good meal at Coral Reef. I wish we could fit it in this trip, but we are trying a few new places and just can't squeeze in another table service restaurant.

I enjoyed the New York Strip in December and then had the adult fried shrimp in June.

Love Hunter with the thumbs up blowing out his birthday candle on my most favorite desert in ALL of Disney.

LISA! You know what? What is up with scowling people at Disney?? In my October TR I reported on the same thing at Ohana. I will never forget it. And while I type, I remember another time at 1900 Park Faire and both times, they were mothers. UGH! At Ohana- this lady was *****in' at her husband about their child and about their company ( apparently they had friends with them) and she was saying how she wishes they wouldn't have came, etc... Stevie kept telling me to stop being so nosey but it was like a train wreck. I couldn't help but look. I just don't understand it. Now, not every Disney moment is great but give me a break. Just sitting there scowling just doesn't help things! And after all the money spent, I'll be danged if I'm sitting there scowling.

On another note, That steak looked great!

So glad you had a great time at Coral Reef. Yes the food looks delish. But eh desserts looked WAY Yummier!

i LOVE people watching and like you I would've stared at the grumpy chick!!! How can you be grumpy IN DISNEY?!?! Way to Go Dad for stepping up and taking care of the child!

 

[ddstratton]

We have only eaten at Corl Reef once and were not impressed. Of course the seafood did not compare to what we get in New England. But reading all the good reviews I'm thinking we should give it another chance. But there are so many good restaurants in Epcot. Glad you enjoyed your meal.

 

[DWGal210]

Looks like a yummy meal!

I love people watching, and I would wonder too what was up with that woman. Why the frowny-face?

The turtle dessert was SO cute! Love it!
