Gluttony . . . Pure Gluttony. 14 nights food reviews from two little piggies!LAST DAY

[Tink2312]

Then on to the hot stuff. I had some bacon which was the best bacon of the trip, some breakfast potatoes which I loved, and a biscuit and gravy (which we really need to get into eating in the UK – SO good!),

Biscuit, gravy I don't know how anyone can enjoy having, what to us seemed a bit like sausage and mushroom congealed soup on top of a scone - FOR BREAKFAST! Maybe we just got a bad one, but that dish will forever steer clear of my breakfast plate (I do quite like the "biscuits" on their own though ).

Great reviews yet again, by the way - I can't believe they're all over
Oh, well, on the plus side, I might actually have time to finish my own reviews now

That is exactly what I thought about my first one too. I haven't tried them again. I might give it another go at a buffet breakfast, then if I don't like it I can go back for something I do like.

Very late to the table but I'm in. Just read about the Magic Cookie and the drier than dry pizza

 

[Pooh's-Honey-Pot]

Another great installment. I have been dying to try Raglan Road...I think i must next trip!

Yes do, out of three meals there I have never had anything bad!

.Those sandwiches look small at the grand Floridian but they sure look yummy!!!

They were small compared to what we had been getting at EoS, but good things come in little packages (so they tell me), and boy was that a yumsome sarnie!!!

Great update!!! I too would be totally shocked by large-scale restaurants having NO change! That is just ridiculous!! And you're right, if that truly is the case - then the change gets rounded up in the customer's favor - not just kept!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm also in disbelief over your CP server - commenting on how much of something you took??? Please, mind your own business, and let me eat my breakfast - oh, and go get the juice!! LOL!!! You two have great attitudes and great appetites!!!! Loving these reviews!

I know! She got right on my wick, kept me from my food with her incessant yapping, AND ripped me off! The ultimate insults!

The sandwiches do look yummy at GFC and what a nice change from a park restaurant!

It was really peaceful, we are definitely going back next year! Sometimes you just need to get out of the manic parks!!

Seriously that is terrible, keeping the money, I know Brits have a bad rep for tipping but if someone pulled that stunt on me, (both the keeping my money cause they didn't have change and the keeping my change because they thought they could have it for a tip) they certainly wouldn't be getting beggar all tip for the dishonesty of it all.

I like the look of that chocolate chip pancake, I might have to ask for one of those when we visit. It is our last meal at WDW, maybe i will have to ask for 5 just to get me through the rest of the day.

Kirsten

I did wonder if it was because we were British!!! And I had been so good all trip, tipping what they suggested on the cheque trying to build up the British name!!

Last Day - DEFINITELY deserves at least 5 pancakes! Chocolate is well known for keeping depression at bay!

I adore Raglan Road and cannot wait to return.... but I ordered the Bread Pudding based on everything I'd read here (had never had it before) and didn't like it. But that's no fault of the pudding!

Thanks so much for the amazingly great reviews! You and your DH seem like an awesome couple!!

I know, I was hoping it was better than my mums, but she has tainted soggy bread for life for me I'm afraid!!! Still, at least I didn't waste my order on it!

Yes bless TG, would you put up with me?!!!

Thanks for the review of RR, can't wait to go for the first time next trip!

You will love it! Oly 4 months left for you!!

I showed Aaron the pics from your dinner and he was super excited! He loves a good plate of fish and chips.
It is so sad though that your trip report is coming to an end.

He is so right, when you are starved nothing hits the spot like greasy fish and chips! Can't believe I didn't order them!!

Hon, may I just say that after reading that wonderful review I'm STARVING!

I'm so bummed, I want to go on my vacation right now! Thanks for the great reviews, I'm really enjoying them...so much so that I thought about trying to fit in the Grand Floridian Cafe, you raved about it so! I still might...hmmm...

I'm starving after re-living it!!!!!

Oh try fit it in! Really nice atmosphere and so nice to get away from manic MK (even though its my fave place on earth!)

What a rude waitress you had at CP & what's up with the WDW restaurants not having change? It seems to be a common thread on several posts I've read recently. It's not like they need the money.

:

Really?! I thought we had just had a bad day. Thats really bad form if that's some sort of new policy! I wonder what they would have done if we had demanded it!

I just spent an hour reading all your reviews. They are GREAT!! I am sad this is coming to an end. You guys are the BEST eaters ever. I wish I could pack all that away. I would probably die. I actually got a stomach ache reading it, but I loved every minute of it. I am dying to read yor last day!!!!

Well it was a tough job doing it, but I had to do my duty and eat it all so I could review it. The things I do for you . . .

I think keeping the change is just like stealing. No thank you! I will wait until somehow you find some change or give me a dollar. I will sit there all day and wait. I will call managers and managers of managers. I am just a mean old lady.

No you are not just a mean old lady that is just absolutly ridiculous about them keeping the change at the table service restaurants. We hardly ever carry cash so I never saw anything like that happen to us but I think I will pay cash at a few places and see what happens next trip.

I completely agree! I should have made more of a fuss really, I thought there was no point as we still had to leave a tip, but there is a principle involved!!

Thanks for your latest reviews, great as always. I cannot believe how rude your CP server was. We were lucky last year with the sweetest old lady server in there who couldn't do enough for us. I can definitely recommend the fish and chips at RR for your next trip.

Laur's

Don't taunt me with the fish and chips!! Over 10 months to go still!!!!! We do have a chippy a couple of minutes drive from here, but nothing beats eating them guilt-free on vacation!!

 

[Pooh's-Honey-Pot]

Brilliant job!

I swear I gained 20 pounds just reading!

Well I hope its easier for you to lose than it is for me!!!!

It is a shame you felt out of place at CRT. I really want to go there next year when Aaron and I take an adults only trip to WDW. Now I just don't know because I was already apprehensive about going sans child.
I am so sad to see your tr come to an end. I can not wait for the next one.

Honestly, just take that at face value, I was VERY "eeyore" that morning! TG didn't feel like that at all and you would think a man would feel even more out of place at a princess meal! Its the only character meal I have ever felt like that at so I'm sure it was just the gloom! I bet you will both go and have a great time!

Can't wait to see your fav/worst lists and your schedule for '09!!

TG can't wait either!!!!

We did the lunch in Nov with 3 adult kids :17,22,23 and they had a great time. We also did hubby and myself for dinner in May for our 25th ann and it was great! No characters really just a show, great food and an anniversary gift from the Fairy Godmother! You will always feel just a bit weird w/o kids but it wasn't bad and I'm glad we went!

Next time i will try it earlier in the trip, grump free!

I absolutely love your reviews--you are very comical (you remind me of me)

Keep it coming--looking forward to the upcoming reviews!!

Ah thank you!! Glad you are enjoying them!

Your TR has inspired me to book a solo trip for a weekend in September, and I have no ADRs planned, (as I have about 7 booked for December), but I AM going to get to Beaches and Cream for a burger (they look divine), and Earl of Sandwich. All CS, I'm thinkin'. But I will get a schoolbread and a magic cookie bar, as I'm staying at POR for the first time.

Thanks for the inspiration!

Oh my goodness I feel really touched to have inspired someone! I have PMS so may well cry now (sorry sharing too much again!!!!!!)!

Beaches and Cream - I think its now my fave place now! Will you have room for a sundae? And enjoy that magic cookie bar - make sure you do reviews when you get back so I know they are still there!

You are so lucky to be staying at POR. It was beautiful. I am longing to go back to either of the Port Orleans resorts, rather than following the fake nuclear cheese to Pop!!!!!!!!!!!

Alright, now you've done it. That last review was so good, I'm sad there won't be anymore!

However, I am anxiously awaiting the recap, and hoping you go again soon, so I can read more food reviews!

But seriously, thanks for writing them. Because of your reviews, I changed my ADRs for my upcoming trip to include the Grand Floridian Cafe, and I'm really excited about it. And I now know I absolutely must make it to Beaches and Cream for a No Way Jose, and I know my DH would be all over that Milky Way sundae! Too funny, the comment about your dear man not looking at you like that!

Ten months to wait, but then it will be three weeks worth of food - I'm so not going to fit in my plane seat on the way home, and I wish I was joking!!!!!

Oh my, this is a lot of pressure people changing ADR's because of me!! I LOVE THE POWER!!!!

Did you see the milky ways sticking out of the sundae - whole bars of them just wedged in there!!! Its no wonder he was drooling Man I LOVE Disney food!

Hi

I just found your Dining TR today and I must say my stomach is hurting from looking at all the food. I WAS going to finish the whole TR before replying but this picture caught my eye and made me laugh. With all the sugar you guys had been eating, did you decide not to have any more in your coffee and use Splenda instead? Nothing like using Splenda to give yourself the excuse to eat more sugary stuff. I thought this was hysterical!!

I am really enjoying your TR. Hope you have the cornbread & chili dog knowledge down for your naturalization test. Since you like the biscuits and gravy, you might want to study that one too! Sawmill gravy and biscuits are my FAVORITE! Next time you're in the US, try going to a Cracker Barrel for every meal of the day, their biscuits and gravy are the best!

Oh you have made laugh SO hard!! All of the rubbish I eat, yet I always go for the low-calorie sugar - I never even realised I was doing it!!!!!!!!!!! That is too funny! I keep telling you all I am healthy deep down!

Oh I will try a Cracker Barrell thanks -is there one in Vegas I wonder?

I tell you I am so ready for my NationaliZation test - I have booked us both us for Spanish lessons starting in September so we can put "multi-lingual" on our applications -thats gotta impress them, right?!!!!

I must say that this was the most helpful review I have ever read....thank you!

You are most welcome!

That is very good to know. I really do want to go because even thought I am now 29 I still think I am a princess lol!

I'm 30 and I'm an Eeyore, it happens overnight!!!

I thoroughly enjoyed your reviews! They were fantastic!

I really enjoyed your reviews. Thanks for Sharing.

Thank you very much! This is such a nice way of reliving the trip!

I have loved your reviews, thanks for sharing. I am always miserable on the last day too (and usually the last full day as well), maybe it is something to do with coming back to the English weather! I am trying to persuade hubby about trying CRT, may have more success if bump is a girl!

Laur's

Just tell him the princesses will make a real fuss of him - TG loved it!!All these women holding his arm and calling him Prince Charming - its no wonder I was a grumpster!!!

And the food was very tasty which helped!

:Biscuit, gravy I don't know how anyone can enjoy having, what to us seemed a bit like sausage and mushroom congealed soup on top of a scone - FOR BREAKFAST! Maybe we just got a bad one, but that dish will forever steer clear of my breakfast plate (I do quite like the "biscuits" on their own though ).

Kirsten

See I LOVE them - I AM so born to be American!!!! What's not to like? Doughy yet light biscuit - good. Creamy sauce - good. I admit it tastes more like chicken then sausage to me, but I'm willing to let that go!!!!!!

The only American thing I don't like is Twinkies! TG loves them - shocker!!

Very late to the table but I'm in. Just read about the Magic Cookie and the drier than dry pizza

Welcome!!! You will hear a lot about the magic bars!!!!!! I likes them a lot!

 

[NYPDwife]

Sad to say, the one closest to Vegas is 89.59 miles away, but there are four within 10 miles of Disney.

Oh, and the Spanish thing, that made me laugh again. I'm a Latina (all of my grandparents and my father were born in Puerto Rico, but moved to New York), living in a VERY South American neighborhood, and it's funny and sad at the same time b/c it's the only language that's spoken around here. The parents come here and don't take the time to learn English and I think it's debilitating for their children, who have to work 2x as hard in school to keep up. But if you learn Spanish, you'll fit in, because of the large Hispanic population, definitely.

Back to food...

I"m going to Rose and Crown in Epcot for dinner on the 24th of December. What do you suggest?

 

[Leslieann1024]

Wednesday 21st May

I am pleased to report the food was as good as remembered! Thank goodness!! The garlic bread in Pizza Hut is to die for. Buttered so thickly on both sides that it meets in the middle, and cooked to perfection. This was wolfed down in 10 seconds flat. Garlic bread is a 10/10 every time for us!

ohhhhh, garlic bread . . . . . ! I'm sooo hungry right now, and I'd tell you what the thought of garlic bread does to me, but this is a "G" rated board . . . . . . !

The only thing better is garlic CHEESE bread with mozzarella and cheddar.

We don't have dine-in Pizza Huts here in the Dallas area, only delivery outlets, wonder if thats a good thing since I can't see the kitchens ? hmmmmm. . . . . .

 

[DisneyGirl0102]

Your husband looks soo much like Jake Gyllenhaal (lucky girl ) that I feel like I'm reading a dining report starring Donnie Darko! You must've heard that before, though, no?

Honeybee30,

I thought the same thing about her husband--they are definitely look alikes!!

[DisneyGirl0102]

That Tonga Toast looks like a cardiac arrest on a plate, now how to fit it in on our trip????


...... Hmmmmm (looking at schedule) there must be away.

OK found a spare day, is it that good that it is worth,

1. Dropping In-laws at Seaworld
2. Parking at MK
3. Taking monorail to Captain Cooks
4. Pick up Tonga Toast
5. Head to MK.

Kirsten

Definitely try to fit it in your schedule!! It is wonderful!!! Back in 06 when I went we went to Kona Cafe every morning for breakfast--1 because we loved the coffee and 2--the TONGA TOAST!! It is a must have for every Disney vacation!

 

[Pooh's-Honey-Pot]

Thoughts, Summaries, and Musings if you will . . .

All in all we loved the food this trip (it was well worth the weight gain!), and there were so many places we never would have tried without this forum! When I look back at 2006 we were such amateurs even though we had been quite a few times before – we didn’t make any ADR’s until we arrived and didn’t even realise we could go eat in the hotels! Now I have a separate countdown going for days until November when I can book next years ADR’s – its all part of the fun now!!

We really didn’t have a bad meal at all on-site, a few dodgy bits of food and a few more than dodgy servers, but we would probably return to most places we tried (Well I wouldn’t go back to Flame Tree BBQ, TG wouldn’t go back the Whispering Canyon, and neither of us have been able to face a KFC since the one on 192), but when you look at everything we ate that’s not bad odds!!

So on to our favourites and worst’s in case you haven’t been keeping up! This is really hard to narrow down and as you will see, in most cases I didn’t!! Honourable mention is for somewhere not awarded another “medal” but that was still all round good!

Coming next . . . next years food plan - the best of the best!!

 

[iluvpluto27]

I've absolutely loved your reviews, so sad it's over. And I've now realised I have to fit a trip to Beaches and Cream into our next trip based on your pics of the sundaes there!

 

[mefordis]

TG looks great! Did he lose all of his weight? You said before you gained 7 lbs -- that is not bad AT ALL!!! That's pretty good, given all that you ate.

How are you and TG going about losing the weight? I have the hardest time getting back on track when I get home. I behave worse than when I'm there. I guess it's because I didn't take FULL advantage of eating EVERYTHING I want, and I bring snacks back, too. Love those malted milk balls from the gift shops.

I will answer all your messages tomorrow, now off to bed! Just before I go, this was our anniversary last week . . . now that's what I call a good selection of perfectly cooked KK's - Florida, take note!

And as I'm on diet I ONLY had three

 

[Pooh's-Honey-Pot]

Oh, and the Spanish thing, that made me laugh again. I'm a Latina (all of my grandparents and my father were born in Puerto Rico, but moved to New York), living in a VERY South American neighborhood, and it's funny and sad at the same time b/c it's the only language that's spoken around here. The parents come here and don't take the time to learn English and I think it's debilitating for their children, who have to work 2x as hard in school to keep up. But if you learn Spanish, you'll fit in, because of the large Hispanic population, definitely.

Back to food...

I"m going to Rose and Crown in Epcot for dinner on the 24th of December. What do you suggest?

Excellent news! I was hoping Spanish was a good choice! We were both lousy at French at school so there was no point trying that again!

Hmm Rose and Crown . . . now I have never actually eaten there. We had an ADR there in 2006, but after waiting over an hour to be seated we stormed off and swore never to return, muttering loudly about "typical British service"!!! But looking at the menu I would either have fish and chips or the lamb. I absolutely adore lamb and never get it at home as TG hates it
Oh I have just realised you will be there on Christmas Eve! I'd do anything to see the parks at Christmas!!

ohhhhh, garlic bread . . . . . ! I'm sooo hungry right now, and I'd tell you what the thought of garlic bread does to me, but this is a "G" rated board . . . . . . !

The only thing better is garlic CHEESE bread with mozzarella and cheddar.

We don't have dine-in Pizza Huts here in the Dallas area, only delivery outlets, wonder if thats a good thing since I can't see the kitchens ? hmmmmm. . . . . .

I am so with you! There is nothing like garlic bread when you are hungry!
No dine-in pizza huts?!! Even where I live we have three!! I will trade you one if you send us a Krispy Kreme shop . . .

Honeybee30,

I thought the same thing about her husband--they are definitely look alikes!!

He's a bit worried you all think he looks like the dude out of "that" cowboy film!!!!!

I just read the part about you not knowing how to multi-quote.
I see you got a handle on that!!!

The dissers taught me well!!

Definitely try to fit it in your schedule!! It is wonderful!!! Back in 06 when I went we went to Kona Cafe every morning for breakfast--1 because we loved the coffee and 2--the TONGA TOAST!! It is a must have for every Disney vacation!

Every morning!!! A girl after my own heart!

TG looks great! Did he lose all of his weight? You said before you gained 7 lbs -- that is not bad AT ALL!!! That's pretty good, given all that you ate.

How are you and TG going about losing the weight? I have the hardest time getting back on track when I get home. I behave worse than when I'm there. I guess it's because I didn't take FULL advantage of eating EVERYTHING I want, and I bring snacks back, too. Love those malted milk balls from the gift shops.

Yes he has lost most of his weight now so I am suffering alone. He has SUCH a fast metabolism, it just kills me!!!

Once I weigh myself I find it pretty easy to get back on track!! I am in most danger when I get near to my normal weight again, then the treats start sneaking in!! I go down to 1500 calories a day and eat foods with 5% fat or less in them only. I used to be an aerobic instrutor so I work out at home rather than the gym - I exercise 5 times a week and walk the dogs each day. HOPEFULLY when I weigh mysef Sunday that should all have taken effect - if not they will hear my screams of despair in Florida!!!! I used to only do aerobics but I just bought myself a treadmill to "learn" how to run. I keep thinking how nice it will be on the Magic next year to run round the deck at sunrise each morning!! Its going OK, I can run for half an hour non-stop, but its a pretty slow pace!

I've absolutely loved your reviews, so sad it's over. And I've now realised I have to fit a trip to Beaches and Cream into our next trip based on your pics of the sundaes there!

YES I must demand you go there I'm afraid!!! Do you like peanut butter???? Have the No Way Hose - I wished I had had it on both visits actually


Will post next years plan asap for your opinions. In the meantime if you have any questions about any of the restaurants or just want to discuss food I am more than happy to answer!!!!

 

[Verity Chambers]

I read all your reports last night. They are great!

 

[DisneyJo]

Thanks for your fantastic reviews and we have a KK creme shop at Bluewater and a stall in our local Tesco but they're not so nice. We actually thought the Bluewater KK's were better than the MCO ones I'm coming up to Norwich next weekend, want me to bring you some?

Don't play with my emotions!! Bluewater's are THE BEST!! We drove for 2 and a half hours to go there last week for our anniversary, to get that dozen!!

Just wanted to thank you again for your WONDERFUL report and great pictures !! I have to confess, I usually won't read a food report if there aren't any pictures . Your writing style/humor made reading the reports a real treat. Thanks again!

I've really enjoyed reading your report and loved seeing all the different meals in your photos. We're off for our first trip in April next year and have made a note to visit Beaches and Cream while we're there as the burgers sound divine!!

Thanks for sharing with us.

He's a bit worried you all think he looks like the dude out of "that" cowboy film!!!!!

Brokeback Mountain? Why should he be worried? Gyllenhaal is brilliant in that film!
