You guys are making me crave a corn dog. I've never had one at DLR.. apparently I've been missing out. I'm adding it to my "must have" list for Nov.

I thought of something else we almost always get when we're there... the gumbo in the sourdough bread bowls at the Royal Street Veranda in NOS. My kids and I love the vegetarian gumbo. My husband either get the steak gumbo or the clam chowder, depending on his mood.

A Dole whip is a pineapple soft serve ice cream. It's soooo tasty! They also have floats that are made with the ice cream and pineapple juice.

A tiger tail is 3 large marshmallows on a skewer. They are dipped in carmel. Then dunked into orange colored (and flavored) chocolate. Finally they are drizzled with a dark chocolate to make them look like a tiger's tail.

A beignet is basically a deep fried donut sprinkled with powdered sugar.

Unforunately I'm drawing a blank on the name, but there is a little treat shop outside the Pooh ride (near the queue line for the Pooh/Tigger/Eeyore autograph area and the exit of Splash Mountain). I believe that's the only place to get them. I think they were right around $4-$5 each.

They also sell Dole Whips at the Dole factory gift shop on Oahu. So if you end up over there anytime in the nearish future, you can get them there.

I LOVE Naples in DTD. Everything I have tried there is delicious and the service is good with reasonable prices. There is a good variety, and this is one of the closest restaurants to the parks in DTD. It always makes for a relxaing lunch break from the parks and gives you a chance to get away from the crowds for a litle while.

DL: Rancho del Zocalo, mint juleps from the mint julep bar
DCA: Catch a Flave-soft serve ice cream swirled with some neat flavors

Fried Cheesecake at Blue Bayou - do they still have it? Last time I was there was June 2005.

I am not a big fan of Rain Forest Cafe. The scenery is beautiful of course, but food

I do love the ESPN zone though. I am not a big sports fan, but they have the best chicken wrap ever. It comes in a large Flour tortilla with lettuce, tomato, large chicken strips, pepper corn ranch dressing inside, and hmmmm!!! cheddar cheese. It is the bomb. You have to try!!! It's even good for you. By far my favorite place to eat. I go at least once a month.

I was looking at the menus and Cafe Orleans lists Mickey shapped Beignets - anybody tried them?

Has anyone had the creme puffs? I am getting one the next time we go .. they look soooo good.

Where would you find the creme puffs?? And what were they like???

 

[mikayla73]

I have seen them on the menu for the Pacific Warf Cafe, but I have not seen the actual cream puff in person. I have seen the WDW cream puffs and they look yummy ... anyone have pics of the cream puff at DL?

I think they also have them at the blue ribbon bakery in DL.

Thanks for all the suggestions, everyone! Can't wait to try them out.
