[BellesFavoriteBook]

Thanks for the picture! Makes me wish we were doing the breakfast buffet there instead of lunch.

I found a picture of Pasta Akherhaus and it looks really good. Thanks for the link to the Categorized Food Pictures thread. It helped.

Since you are going for your anniversary I have to tell you about my experiece at the GFC...

It was Incredible! Our waitress, Adrienne, was absoultley amazing. I couldn't decide between the NY Strip and the Shrimp and Prosciutto Penne Pasta, so she suggested that my mom and I split them. I explained to her that mom is allergic to shrimp so she said we could sub it for grilled chcken if we like. So we decided to do just that. While we were waiting for our order we were trying to figure out how we were going to split everything. Well when our food came out, surprise surprise, they gave us our own plate of each with the portions split in two. Not only was the food awesome I was really impressed how they went out of there way to make it so amazing. We are def. going back and I would def. recommend it!

I think you will be really happy there.

Thanks so much for the information. We've never eaten at the Grand Floridian Cafe and I was looking for pictures and information. We are sending our kids (22 and 12) to Planet Hollywood and we're going out for dinner by ourselves. We hardley ever do anything by ourselves much less at Disney World.

Just got back from a "not so magical" trip to a HOT and CROWDED Disney.
Oh well... Can't win them all. At least the food was good! I don't have many. We brought 90% of our food from home. No work=no money.

Here's one of our meals in the park:

Be sure to read the story behind it after you check out the pictures. You will NOT believe what we paid for this meal!!!

LOCATION:
Downtown Disney
Planet Hollywood
Entree: Turkey Club Sandwich

Freebie anniversary split! (Heavenly!!!)

OK, now for the story.

We were all about saving money on this trip. I booked this trip in March. Jan, Feb, and March were among my best 3 months in the past several years. So I booked the trip, and paid it in full. Then April 1st (fool's day I may add) the phone just stopped ringing. No more work. Nothing. Then the bottom falls out and every possible expense rears it's ugly head. So i *SHOULD* have cancelled this trip, because we REALLY couldn't afford it. (Anyone else here understand this at all???) But we wanted to go. So we did. This was one of only a few meals we ate in the park.
For dinner we split 2 of these Turkey Clubs. I only took a picture of one, but there were 2. We each (4 of us) had HALF a sandwich and half an order of fries. It was AMAZINGLY GOOD!!! We all left the table full. Not stuffed mind you, but full. The place was hopping, so they were really slow to bring us our food. So we kept asking for Pepperoncinis! (sp?) You know, those little light green chiles you find at the salad bar. We were all famished, and by the time the food arrived we had sucked down 2 full plates of chiles! Ohhhh they were GOOD!!! I had forgotten how much I love those Pepperoncinis.
So we also ordered iced water for drink. (we usually do) And, we used our $15 off coupon which we got in with our Disney trip itinerary. Total price after the coupon...

drumroll...


$10.50 For a family of 4 to eat till full!!!
We left a $5 tip, which was (do the math) a 50% tip. Standard tip is 15%. We left a 50% tip. Even still, it was only $5. I felt guilty leaving only $5, even if it was a 50% tip. I wanted to leave more, but we didn't have the proper change. She didn't get rich off us. Hopefully her next table would be some business men who would rack up the bill in alcohol. By the looks of the place I'd say she still did pretty good that night.

Oh... and the sundae.... It was SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO good! We gave the children a couple spoons full and split the rest.
Who says you can't do Disney on a budget???

That sandwich looks great, I love to get a Club Sandwich when we go out to eat different places.
Actually though, about your comment above. You really left a 20% tip, not a 50% like you thought you did. When you use any kind of coupon or get any kind of discount you are supposed to tip on the total before that coupon/discount, not after.
If you used a $15 coupon then I'm assuming you total was around $25. You did leave a standard 20% however. I only brought this up because you talked about it in you post.
But, that sandwich does look YUMMY!

Coral Reef - we were disappointed in the service here, so I think that influenced our overall enjoyment of the meal. If you go, which I hope you do, I hope you have a different server than we did. He missed my DH's food allergy and didn't offer to help with a spill/broken glass (our neighbor gave us their extra napkins), and then didn't ever get us new napkins. Not to be picky, but I think that's simple stuff. Maybe I'm wrong...now onto the pics!

Main dishes: Barbecued Salmon Sandwich and Grilled Mahi Mahi (back dish)

Dessert: Tropical Fruit Mango Sorbet and Butterscotch Creme Brulee (back dessert)

Wolfgang Puck Express - YUMMO!!! I could have eaten this everyday of our trip.

Four Cheese Macaroni:

Yachtsman Steakhouse - we really enjoyed this meal. Everything was really good. We didn't take a picture of the cauliflower that we had, and it was SO GOOD!!! I encourage all to try it when/if you go as a sidedish.

DH's Cowboy Steak:

My New York Strip Steak:

Desserts: Mango Cheesecake and Signature Banana Napoleon (back dessert)

 

[MUDisneyCouple]

Earl of Sandwich - LOVE this place!
Best BLT

Ghirardelli - just a little snack before dinner
The Gold Rush - Peanut Butter Hot Fudge Sundae

Restaurant Marrakesh - this was an interesting adventure as we had never truly had Moroccan food before. The tastes were intense for us, since we were thinking that we would be experiencing what we'd eaten before at the Tangerine Cafe...the menus are nothing alike, so definately ask your server for details. The service was really good and helped to make the meal.

Night in Casablanca - Roast Lamb Meshoui, Chicken Kebab, and Seafood Bastilla and vegetable couscous (first picture)

Shish Kebab

Desserts: Moroccan Symphony and Bastilla (back dessert)

Pizza Planet - our first pizza experience at the World. Loved that it came with a salad and crispy treat!
Veggie Pizza

Artist's Palette - We stayed at SSR, so this is breakfast from the Artist's Palette, we really liked the menu selection.
Adult Mickey waffle and Adult breakfast plate

Yak and Yeti - LOVED this place! We were so excited about the food that we ate it BEFORE we took pictures...we were really hungry. I did get a picture of the YUMMY desserts.
Fried Wontons and Sorbet (back picture)

Tutto Italia - Our FAVE meal! This place was amazing and I wanted to go back for that pasta all over again! Ok, part of it is b/c I'm craving pasta, but it was REALLY good.
Tagliatelle alla Primavera (subbed for penne pasta) and the Special of the day NY strip

Desserts: I can't remember the name of mine, but Zuppa Inglese (back pic)

That makes sense too.

My New York Strip Steak:

That looks like Heinz 57 sauce!!! It looks REALLY good! I'm sure it's not Heinz 57, but it sure looks like it! It looks like my plate when I eat at Golden Corral!!!
