Hey Christine - glad you made it into SciFi. I love the atmosphere there! At least you weren't with the group with the long food wait!
Hmmm....your next title has me intrigued. Can't wait for more!
I'm glad we went too!
The atmosphere is totally cool and it is a good break from the heat and sunshine. Unfortunately I think we caught it on a bad day in terms of service and that colored the experience.
Look for the next chapter sometime this week!
I totally remember those plastic oranges from visiting WDW when I was a little girl!
Now there's a misty water-colored memory!
Weren't those the coolest? I wish my parents hadn't thrown it out. I wonder if it could be in their basement somewhere. Isn't it funny what sticks in our memories?
I'm two updates behind!
MNSSHP sounds like such a blast with DIS buddies. I really have to get to LTT again, I just love the atmosphere there. And last September they were calling families like you remember...The Smith Party from wherever. It was really neat.
I had already heard about the ill fated Sci Fi experience. I've been there once and wasn't overly impressed but was willing to give it another shot.
WDW with DIS buddies is the absolute bestest!
I think I'd like to try LTT for lunch (fried cheese, come to mama!!
) It was somewhat ill-fated but the company was great and anything that comes with french fries is pretty ok in my book!
There seem to be so many reviews of Sci-Fi recently that aren't that great, what a shame! It also seems to be rather common that people have really long waits. I think they should question the number of ADRs they make available... We will be eating there in January, but won't expect anything spectacular. So I hope we won't be too dissappointed!
I agree- I think they just need to re-examine their process b/c service and waiting can overshadow everything.
The other restaurants don't seem to have the problem to this degree so hopefully they can learn from some other restaurants to fix it!
I'm right there with you on your review of Sci Fi.....Great atmosphere, but the food, just ehh.
Poking around in One Man's Dream is sooo cool. I hope they manage to incorporate the artifacts somewhere else if they are to do away with it.
I'm making note of the Oct. dates! I'm just afraid that our fall break is going to be a week late.
Oh yes, DO make notes of those Oct dates. The more the merrier!! I can't wait!
I hope they can preserve One Man's Dream or at least portions of it too. I think it should be mandatory viewing-- if you want to come to DHS you have to spend time in OMD!
YIKES for it being so darn hot! CRAZY!!!
Sounds like you made the most of it and had fun anyway!
Hmmmmm, your SciFi experience sounds familiar to me
. All I'll say is stayed tuned in my TR
It was SO flipping hot. I love the heat. Generally I say it can't get hot enough for me. But this was a lot. An awful lot. And I'd give anything to be back there right now -- heat and all.
Oh dear, a similar experience at Sci Fi?? Seriously, they need to hire me (not that I know anything about the restaurant biz) and I'll straighten them right out!
WOW! You know we have never been to SciFi, I was thinking it would be fun for dessert only... I hear over and over the same message about the food... BUT bad service, that sucks regardless of the food!
Sounds like you had fun with Jen touring around DHS! I have not been to the One Man's Dream exhibit... I gotta get in to see that!
Tequila tasting.. sounds right up my alley!
Oh we have a saying for "hot hot" days... "This is Africa Hot!"
I know that sounds
stoopid... BUT I have to go ask my DH to remind me which movie this comes from -- it is a comedy, and for some reason it just stuck with us... I will ask him... It works particularly well in the AK. When... you... are... in... Africa ...
At least it is Disboard friendly
Africa hot... that is much more DIS friendly!
Sci Fi does have quite a few yummy looking desserts not to mention milkshakes with alcoholic goodness so that might be a great way to experience the atmosphere!
You've never been in OMD?
Oh, do try to stop in there in Dec. Although your boys would probably not be too intrigued.
Hmm, I was thinking of putting Sci-Fi on my maybe list for spring but now...maybe not. My list is longer than days I will have anyways I'm sure!
Oh, Katie-- don't take it off the list for me. I never want to be the reason anyone takes a restaurant off their list. Similarly I am not liable if you hate a restaurant I love.
Brown Derby will remain my top draft pick in DHS but it is not cheap and it's not a quick experience. I've heard good things about Mama Melrose ... that's next on my list to try.
Awww I loved meeting you!! You are an amazing person and I am lucky to call you friend and I was so glad with our many experiences!!!! I really enjoyed walking around One Man's Dream with you and watching the movie about Walt!!!
Toy Story Mania was too much fun and my arm hurt too LOL!!!!! I didn't beat you that bad, you held your own LOL!!!
Lunch at the Sci Fi...what can I say....the company was great and the food was okay...enjoyed the atmosopher...but the service...well it was bad enough that I won't be going back again for quite a long time.
Another amazing update!!
You are too sweet!
I'm glad we got to meet too and can't wait til our next trip to the World!!
Eventually we decided that it was just time to go. So we parted ways and agreed wed see each other the next day for dinner at the California Grill!
