Disney Food Pictures...Part II

[MUDisneyCouple]

Fairy_Tale_Bride - was the strawberry soup good? My DH fell in love with the cold fruity soups on DCL. He would be willing to eat at 1900 if this was worth it!!!

 

[Sparkie]

I guess I'm gonna have to try strawberry soup. Doesnt look or sound appealing to me but everyone else seems to rave about it - so I guess I'll give it a try.

I will write this down & bring it with me! I want to try the Shrimp Tempura Roll!



Yes, thank you for responding!!!!!!!!!! This looks great. We usually get sushi as an appy to share, but next time I think we'll have to over-order because this looks fantastic.

Wow that sushi does look good (and shrimp tempura rolls are yummy- as well as sweet potato rolls!) But I think I might blow a blood vessel in my eye paying $93 for sushi. I do love it, and it is expensive, especially at Disney, so I'd rather spend that money elsewhere and go to the all you can eat sushi place, where I can get endless sushi (including tempura shrimp and salmon) for $23. But then again, I can be stingy haha

If you have a Costco Warehouse near. Try their churros. They are so good. Crunchy sugary sweetness outside, pillowy softness inside. Yummy.

Oo...Costco churros are yummy, but there's nothing like getting a churro in disney. Bummer they want to charge you a snack credit for the 50 cent chocolate dipping sauce. Costco very berry sundaes are good too! And I always get my soda!

I agree with you. While I've never been to Spoodles, that could happen anywhere. I prefer the rings too also, but I will eat the tentacles. Now DF, he won't eat calamari just because it's squid, and that's disturbing to him. I couldn't see it moving either.

Haha I have a funny story about the first time I ate calamari. I used to refuse to eat because it was squid too and it weirded me out. Well my dad came home with leftovers and was like, You've got to try this! I was hesistant so he told me they were buffalo chicken-o's! Well I ate the buffalo style calamari and was shocked at how good they tasted! . I was shocked even more when he told me what they were . But in the end they were so yummy I over came my anxiety and now I love them. Although the whole ones still freak me out a little bit.

However I wouldn't avoid Spoodles on that account. It was one of the best meals I had during my entire trip. (And now so I don't get yelled at for posting without pictures:

The red snapper from Spoodles:

The pork chop (with roasted potatoes):

The Fancier's cake (or whatever it's called):

The gelato (roasted almond with tart cherry sauce and almond brittle):

The pork chop (with roasted potatoes):

Um - what's the green stuff?

The gelato (roasted almond with tart cherry sauce and almond brittle):

Mmm ... this looks really good!

I might be wrong but I don't think that one can even buy live squids any where.

Okay - I'm not a huge sushi fan, but this looks great. For you sushi experts, is there a way to order this to get only the kinds without raw meat? The Shrimp Tempura Roll looks like the meat is cooked, but the menu description says: "Snake in the Grass" Roll - Shrimp tempura with avocado, eel, and cucumber.

Here ya go!

We have this China! Not that it's my favorite, but it belonged to my husband's Grandmother.

Anyway, I'll have to show this thread to DH. Maybe it'll convince him that we need the DxDP!

How much does the "skillet" set you back? It looks wonderful. Is it for for a family of 8?

 

[HunnyPots]

NOT SPOODLES!!!!!!!!!!!!
See this little Guy....he came off my Plate from Spoodles....The little Suction cups were moving!!

UGH! Moving or not, I don't do tentacles! Nothing triggers my gag reflex faster than seeing those little suckers. Eeeewwww!

They're a different animal entirely, because they don't have the gooey doughy center because of how they're piped. Too dry/baked for my taste the few times I've tried them.

This is a misconception many people make. Sushi does not refer to raw fish, the term used for raw fish is sashimi. Sushi is actually reference to the rice. Anything served on a ball of rice (nigiri sushi), rolled in rice (maki sushi), or in a small nori cone filled with rice (temaki sushi) is sushi; they have a sweet egg omelet, called tamago, served on rice that many people who have a fear raw food eat.

Others you may try are: ebi (shrimp), masago (smelt roe), tobiko (flying fish roe), anago (conger eel), tako (octopus), kani (crab), surimi (imitation crab). These are all cooked and are good things to try if you are worried about raw items.......maybe you can work your way to some toro (fatty tuna) which is one of my favorites!!!

Yes you can just order the shrimp tempura sushi even though it's not on the menu. It comes with cucumber & zucchini strips. I really love the soy wrap they use, because it's very light tasting. I think this is really the best sushi for newbies to try.

pesto?

Never thought of that!

Thank you so much for the explanation. I guess maybe the meat has always looked raw, so I assumed it was. (I'm not a huge fan of anything that tastes "fishy" so that was holding me back too.) I might have to give this a try. Thanks!
