I've not done Disney in two years, any recommendations ?
Going in November, thanks !
 
We just ate at Raglan Road recently and we really enjoyed it. We had dinner at 4:30 pm right when the music and dancing started. Our food was good and the service was good, too. It's a fun atmosphere with entertainment I can't see where we come from.
 
Out best DS meal (and one of the best of our trip) was Chef Art Smith's Homecomin'
 

Homecoming and Morimoto are definitely our favorites in the Springs, but Boathouse and Ragland road aren't too far behind. If you're just looking for a fun place for a drink Jock Lindsey's is also a ton of fun.
 
We had brunch at Raglan Road recently and loved it - except for the soda bread. Looking forward to Art Smith’s place for fried chicken.
 
Morimoto is great, and we love getting drinks and some apps to share at Frontera Cocina!
 
Raglan Road
House of Blues

Both are among our favorites of all restaurants at WDW. Highly recommend either one.
 
So much great food but don't miss all the amazing live entertainment outside all along the length of DS.
 
DH and I just spent a few days relaxing and hanging around Disney Springs. Here are my recommendations:
  • D-Luxe Burger! We went TWICE in just a few days - it was THAT good. The burger patties are made with a blend of short rib, angus, chuck, and brisket. We find the flavor to be excellent. My DH loooooved the Southern Burger while I enjoyed the Barbecue Burger. I suggest sharing a Duo - that was perfect. I also found the Cookies and Cream gelato shake to be very good - it was like drinking an Oreo!
  • S'mores at the Ganachery - I think this is one of the most unique desserts at Disney - and possibly one of the best. You get to watch a pastry chef behind the window make it for you. The graham cracker is soft and absolutely unlike any you've had. It's slathered with salted caramel chocolate ganache. Then the chef takes a blow torch to a gigantic artisan square marshmallow and a chocolate sheet. Finally, it's topped with a powdered sugar Mickey. It is super messy but so delicious. My DH doesn't really even like s'mores, and he refuses to share - he always wants his own. I honestly would call this a "life-changing dessert!"
  • Homecomin' - We love the fried chicken and have found that sharing the platter is perfect for two.
  • The Boathouse - the Crab Stuffed Lobster was out of this world!!!
  • Sugarboo - This is my favorite store at Disney Springs, and I so wish that we had one near us, but it seems they are only in the South. It's worth a visit - they have some very cute home decor, stationary, and jewelry. Great place to get a unique wedding gift, I would think!
Enjoy!
 
Jock lindsey hangar bar is a lot if fun. Great apps and drinks too. Go for it!
 
Jock Lindsey for drinks and appetizers; Amorette's Patisserie for dessert
 
My dilemma is that it sounds like there are so many great desserts, how/where do I eat a light lunch? Really don't think I should fill up on JUST dessert!

Sure you can fill up on desserts. There are no calories in Disney. :thumbsup2

If you are looking for something small to eat, how about Poutine?

Poutine is right next to one of the dessert places. But I thought Poutine had kind of large portions.

Edited: Sorry, I had it confused with the Polite Pig. Poutine is definitely a possibility.
