Getting recipes while you are there

[Valeep]

Do all TS and CS restaurants provide recipes for anything on their menus or are there limitations? I know that Derby gives out the Cobb Salad and Grapefruit Cake recipes on cute recipe cards. Anyone have any experience with asking for recipes? I know that there are some websites out there that have recipes posted, but it is nothing like getting them from the real deal, yah know!

We had asked for the Cream of Pumpkin Soup they serve on Thanksgiving Day. Our name and address was taken, and after several weeks we did receive the recipe. I think if you offer to leave your name and address and have it sent to you, you may have a better chance of getting it.

Good luck!

There is a cookbook available at WDW with recipes from Disney Chefs. I am not a big cooker but it sure looks like fun!

Supposedly, WDW will provide you with any recipe you ask for.

I went to Boatwright's specifically for the banana stuffed french toast, which I had had once before. Because I didn't even need to look at the menu, the waitress must have figured that I came just for that and when she brought my bill, she also brought the recipe without me even asking for it.

When we did Ohana for breakfast, our waitress gave us the recipe for the Pineapple Bread(yum).

Any chance you'd share the pineapple bread recipe and post it. My family loved that bread. I want the recipe for the pretzel bread in Biergarten.

A few years ago I asked for the recipe of a rhutabaga dish on the buffet at Restaurant Akurshus and the waiter was able to get it for me. I can't remember what the other request was for, but they gave me a web address that had the recipe.

Do you think that you could share with us the banana stuffed french toast recipe from Boatwrights. I am not able to make it over there for this trip. It sounds incredibly good.

I asked for the recipe of the ginger dressing you get with the teppanyaki starter (appetizer) and got it straight away. As I understand it they are happy to give you the recipe for anything that is served on property.

When we were eating in the Crystal Palace for lunch in January, we had asked for the recipe for a beef and something salad...(I don't recall what it is now) as my mother had really enjoyed it when she was there the year before.

Besides having an absolutely awful server (I don't think the bill should appear when you have your appetizer, and haven't yet recieved drinks), when I asked, I was told to go speak to a chef. Off I went towards the kitchen, got a chef who spoke little english, and told me to ask my server. So, back I went to my server, getting a little annoyed. The server said he'd take my e-mail address, and have the chef send it to me later - I wrote it down, and left it with the bill with the recipe name in question, and it's been 6 months later with no e-mail.

Maybe it depends on who you get as a server!

Shhhhhh! My wife uses the banana bread recipe from the Monrail Cafe at Disneyland and claims it as her own. It's the best ever!!

went to Artist Point on my parents 45th anniversary. Mom had the mushroom soup and salmon and they brought her the recipes without asking -they even gave her cedar planks for the salmon!

I'd love to make the soup but it sounded way too difficult!

 

[Valeep]

Would she mind sharing "her" banana bread recipe with the rest of us? I do not think that I am making it to Disneyland anytime soon.

I had a blue cheese bread pudding at Coral Reef that was outrageous. I asked for the recipe but never got it Does anyone have a email address where I can request it?? Thanks. Also care to share the Cream of pumpkin soup recipe??

I have gotten disney recipies many different ways.

I have asked for the sangria at Mama Melroses and got it on a card (there - last October).

I asked for the butternut squash soup at Boma and got it via e-mail. The e-mail was from a CM at AKL.

I agree, it depends who you get for a server.

I have both volumes of the "cooking with Mickey" cookbooks that you can buy at World of Disney. I especially bought volume 1 (blue cover) because it has the boma steak. YUM. It also has the 50's diner meatloaf, the Derby's cobb salad, Kona's tonga toast, and other good recipies.

Volume 2 (red cover) seems to be a little more dated (older) than volume 1. It has recipies for places like Top of the World (became California Grill).
