Why didn’ t you tell me? I would have popped down!

Maybe tomorrow?

Saw HEA from 3rd floor RPC balcony! Then EWP from my balcony.

Sitting in bed watching poly. Love you poly !

I watch gf when I’m at poly

I wonder if they will put brick in or new cement?

We were Cl last week when they were working on the new red center area. It is actually colored cement & not brick. We could see it was 1 large slab & they used small metal tools to make the brick like patterns.

Breakfast was good. They didn’t have cheesy potatoes today nor would tomorrow. They have a chef in the mornings and she offered to fetch me some from 1900 park fare!

So I met Haley! So sweet! She told me at the cm desk they have a form you can fill out to give a lil shout out to a CM. So I did do that for the chef.

Evening had less hot appies compared to every trip I have ever had. One chicken and one pasta/sauce/meatball.

They keep saying an elevated club but I’m not buying it. Not enough for a meal midday, simply a few snacks.

The good! The mimosa bar ? Yes that’s a good edition,

The wine selection? Yes they have 3 reds, 4 whites plus champagne. The beer I forgot to take a picture. They had several I’ll try tonight.

View 4x27, champagne bar, wines 11:30 - 10p.

Dropped my phone too many times… my pix blurry! Sorry!

@sdk1231 loved meeting your daughter! She’s a sweetie.

Resting after a productive and chill morning at Epcot. Have to say I am really really enjoying our stay here, CMs at Enchanted Rose and elsewhere have been really friendly and engaging. GF Cafe was great for lunch yesterday. Our location feels so convenient to everything too. This has been even better than my first stay here.

Also got to say hi to trish finally! Disboards irl, omg!

Kylenne, don't forget the bar at Narcoosee's! Better food than ER and some great bartenders.

X2 on that!

I sat at the bar for dinner this spring. I thought the old in a hole bar setup here was weird, never a place I wanted to go. But post renovation it’s a great spot, love the vibe, CMs, food, and feel of the place. Hidden gem.

 

[trishadono]

Feels like home.

Tried to get Epcot and ewp.

Next time!

How hard is it to get a couple of seats together at Narcoossee's bar? We were at GF earlier this month. We had long lines to get into ER and the bar at Citricos was packed too, which I've never seen before. It didn't occur to me to try Narcoossee's for walk up cocktails and apps.

Can you order off their regular dinner menu or is there a separate bar menu?

 

[trishadono]

Some 5th floor love the Grand style aka with Grand Marnier!

Windows tricky lol! Love reflections in some.

Unfortunately I don’t eat seafood or we would go in a heartbeat. Maybe drinks only. We have a rest day on Sunday before the Halloween party.

You should be able to order off the regular menu. Enjoy!

We stay at The Grand a couple times a year and our family friend, who we travel with, will visit the bar for dinner a couple times a trip. He walks up and just requests a seat, sometimes solo, and sometimes with his daughter and her husband. They never have an issue getting a seat, nor have ever been turned away. Enjoy!

They have a nice cheese plate on the dessert menu (but they'll serve it as an appetizer, too). Their Old Fashioned and a cheese plate is one of my favorite light bar dinners.
