Just back - here's where we ate!

[Lisa D]

Just back from a fabulous vacation - five days at WDW followed by 3-day Wonder cruise - here's where we at at WDW- let me know if you have any questions - I've indicated which ones were out of this world:

Day 1: Breakfast - Electric Umbrella/Epcot
Lunch - Harry Ramsden's/UK pavillion - very good
Dinner - in room at BWV

Day 2 : Breakfast - in room
Lunch - Rosie's /MGM near TOT
Dinner - ESPN Club - excellent

Day 3: Breakfast - in room
Lunch - Flame Tree Barbecue/AK - best lunch ever eaten
in WDW!
Dinner - Alfredo's/Epcot - excellent (and we almost didn't
eat here because of Unofficial Guide)

Day 4: Breakfast - in room (I know - we're boring on breakfast)
Lunch - Pecos Bill's/MK - Fixings bar is awesome and
makes up for the so/so burger you are "fixing up" - I do
recommend this for lunch at MK
Dinner - Big River Breworks at BW - Just want to say that
I've read some bad reviews on this place - the staff here
bent over backwards for us when DS's cheeseburger was
overdone - the manager actually ran out of the
restaurant with another burger for him 5 minutes after we
sent the burned one back. All the rest of our food was
very good (although DH and I just had salad since we were
stuffed from Pecos Bill's). This was my second good dining
experience here - and I do recommend this place
especially for beer drinkers (including DH and I).

Day 5: Breakfast - Boardwalk Bakery - in room (surprise) - the
Boardwalk Bakery never disappoints
Lunch - fast food at Typhoon Lagoon - same old same old
water park food (still good)
Dinner - Le Cellier/Epcot - Excellent - Recommended -
best filet I've had in the 40 years of my life.

Sorry to go on so long - please let me know if anyone has any questions on anything!

Thanks for your reviews on restaurants. I am hungry now that I read your post. Can't wait to eat at the WDW!!

Just curious on how you would compare BRG to the ESPN? My own view is that ESPN carries a very ordinary beer selection, while BRG has at least those microbrews, making it a far better spot for the serious beer drinker.
Did you see it that way also??

Both the beer and the menu are a bit more creative at Big River. I tend to get very tired of the same old sandwich&fries after a couple of days at WDW. We had a pitcher of the pale ale at Big River. The beer selection at ESPN is okay, though - at least it's more than just Bud and Bud Light (which I cannot drink because it gives me a splitting headache).
