Where in the World Showcase is Carmen Sandiego?
(please imagine Rockapella playing in the background)
OK gumshoes, in this installment, the Tweedles, David, and I are encounter some Disney magic while trying to determine where in the world showcase the Tweedles will eat.
Here are your clues to the mystery of where the Tweedles would eat: 1. They don't like anything, 2. We already had Italian, and 3. It's on the first page of this thread!!
Still haven't guessed, or just too tired to have to search? Well it was America, of course!! Yes, why eat something new and different when you can go to Liberty Inn at the American Adventure in World Showcase? Here we learned that the American contributions to the culinary world include the hot dog, hamburger, and chicken nugget. We also learned that letting the Tweedles get their way when it comes to dining choices makes everyone happy.
As an aside, I don't have pictures of this meal. I know, I failed miserably. But I have an excuse. And a good one too......Dream FPs. The boys had all ditched me for Mission Space earlier in the day. Which is one of 3 rides I refuse to do at WDW due to the potential for vomiting. Heck, even Star Tours turns me green. Anyways, after being left behind I began to aimlessly wander Epcot trying to figure out what I wanted to do for an hour. At that point, I happened to see that people in Dream Team uniforms were standing only 50 feet in front of me and they were blocking my path. When I reached this gaggle of Dream Teamers and one said "Congratulations you have just won Dream FPs as a part of our year of a million dreams celebration." Then out of nowhere...I start crying like I have just won Miss America. Don't ask me where that reaction came from....it was so silly and I felt so ridiculous. Thank goodness I didn't win anything else because given my reaction to FPs...well you get the idea. They also gave me 3 more dream FPs for the Tweedles and David. Anyways, Mission Space was having problems, the boys took much longer than 1 hour, it had begun to pour, and by the time we got to lunch we were still talking about the FPs. Sorry, but pictures of food was the last thing on my mind. (I do have pics of the FPs, but I didn't want to rub it in too much).
Anyways, back to the food review. I might not have pics of this one, but I will at least do my best to review it.
Liberty Inn at the American Pavilion, not to be confused with Liberty Tree Tavern at MK, is a counter serve in the similar to Pecos Bills and Cosmic Ray's. Though Liberty Inn's fixin' bar is sad by comparison. Their offerings: burgers, hot dogs, wraps, nuggets, etc. Liberty Inn's fixin's bar does however have hot melted cheese (liquid gold!).
David ordered a bacon double cheeseburger. He did not think it was anywhere nearly as good as the bacon double cheeseburger from Pecos Bills.
Tweedle Dee had the hot dog. He turned this into a cheese dog by slathering it in the liquid cheese. He liked it, but wished that the adult meal came with 2 hot dogs instead of 1 since the burger comes with 2 patties. He ate it quickly and then began to scavenge from both my plate and Tweedle Dum's plate.
Tweedle Dum had the chicken nuggets. He ate them all, said they reminded him of Wendy's nuggets (which is a good thing) and also traded me fries for 1 of my nuggets.
I had the buffalo chicken nuggets, which were not on the main menu. They were instead listed on a sign above the cash register. They were the regular chicken nuggets but they had also been drenched in yummy buffalo sauce. I love buffalo sauce.....mainly because it is an excuse to eat lots of ranch dressing. They were tasty. The one draw back? They don't come with fries. They only come with celery slices and I don't do celery. It just brings back unfortunate memories of a 1st grade "ants on a log" project gone horribly awry.
Liberty Inn wasn't crowded, then again WS wasn't really crowded at that time either. However, service at Liberty Inn was horrible. The line took FOREVER! I don't know what was going on, but it was a good 15 minutes after we ordered before we got our food.
By far, the best part of the meal was dessert. We all got the Mickey rice krispy treats (Tweedle Dee initially ordered the brownie. But once he got it, he realized it was sugar free and begged me to exchange it for him). Those rice krispy treats were pretty big, were shaped like Mickey Mouse, and the ears had been dipped in chocolate. Mmmm.....chocolate Mickeys!
Next up is Boma and don't worry I did take pics! (Though some of them are a bit dark).
