Easter Week Mom and Daughter Trip

[stace1214]

What a great week! My 13 year old daughter and I spent April 6-11 at WDW and definitely had the best food we've had in many trips! Unfortunately, I didn't take too many food pics, but hopefully I can find them online to share. I'm a travel agent and working my way through each resort, so this trip brought us to three different resorts. Luckily my daughter is a good sport and enjoys seeing as many hotels as I do!
April 6: Arrival
We arrived at Caribbean Beach at lunch time and both had the Chicken Bowl- rice, beans, chicken and this incredible cilantro lime sauce. So good!

For dinner we had a reservation for Cake Bake Shop to celebrate my daughter's birthday. This restaurant is just gorgeous! It was my daughter's first time there and it did not disappoint. Yes, it's pricey, but absolutely worth it! I had a cup of the Chicken Velvet Soup and the Arugula Salad. My daughter had the kids Grilled Cheese which was full of sparkles! We both really enjoyed our meals. We picked the Millionaire Cake which was so rich and delicious.

April 7 Animal Kingdom and Epcot
After rope dropping FOP and Navi River Journey, we needed some breakfast and shared the Pork Shoulder Potato Hash Bowl. This was really tasty! Highly recommend!

After hitting up our AK favorites, we hopped over to Epcot where Easter Break crowds were in full force! We stopped at Farmer's Feast in Communicore Hall and tried the strip loin and peach cobbler. No pics, the light was blue and made the food look crazy! Both were very good. The strip loin is served with tomato risotto and was one of the best things I ate all week. My daughter has the biggest sweet tooth and proclaimed the peach cobbler with cinnamon gelato a highlight of her week.

Later that afternoon we had a reservation for San Angel Inn. Unfortunately, we weren't all that hungry so we shared order chips and guac and the server said in order to get chips we had to order the cheese dip. We dine here almost every trip and hadn't been told that before. The guacamole here is always so good.

Next up was our resort/Disney Springs day! After a breakfast of Mickey waffles, we walked from our resort, Saratoga Springs to Disney Springs. First time staying there and although it was a little too large for us, the room and grounds were gorgeous and the walk to get to DS can't be beat!

My daughter had to have a churro, it was fresh and warm. We've had them a little stale before so that was a pleasant surprise! Lunch was at The Boathouse. My absolute favorite restaurant in WDW. I always get the same thing- truffle fries and filet sliders. I'm sure the other dishes are amazing too, but I can't sway from my faves!! I didn't take a pic this trip, so this is one from last trip. My daughter had the kids burger and fruit. She said it was great!



We tried to hang at the pool but the weather just didn't cooperate. We spent the late afternoon/evening resort hopping. We visited Wilderness Lodge, Poly and Contemporary. We were hungry by the time we got to CR and stopped at the Contempo Cafe. We both ordered flatbreads and it took a shockingly long time. We waited maybe 30 minutes after ordering. I know pizza at WDW is never all that good, but these were tasty! Or maybe we were just starving! These aren't typical flatbread though- the crust was puffy. I had a buffalo chicken flatbread which was great but spicy and my daughter had the three meat flatbread. I liked hers better. It definitely hit the spot!
