[dani0622]

Hi everyone!

I know it's not the traditional way to post reviews but I actually have a food blog and I've been posting my dining reviews for my recent trip to Disney's Vero Beach Resort and WDW. So far, I only have two reviews up but plan on adding new ones each day until I'm done. To view the reviews with PICS, please visit my blog, The Average Cook, at:

Just updated today with a review of breakfast at Shutters and dinner at Riverside Cafe, downtown Vero Beach.

Just had a read of your reviews - very good. Thanks for posting. That flatbread that you had the first night looked good but I was almost gagging myself at the description of all the garlic on it.

Looking forward to reading more

Thanks Wilma-bride! I wish I had taken a picture of the garlic that was just SPREAD underneath the tomatoes and mozzarella. It was unbelievable! I didn't realize it until that last horrid bite when I forced myself to swallow it.

I'm still here reading along - those chicken fingers look HUGE

 

[dani0622]

Yup, they were definitely huge! But good!

Hi Dani, I finally got round to reading the rest of your reviews. I am soooooo looking forward to trying Tonga Toast next time we ware at Disney. I do so hope I like it

By the way, I read your recipes also - the roast chicken one where you comment that it shoulkd have only taken an hour and a half - here in the UK we cook roast chicken based on 20 minutes per lb plus an extra 20 - and that is for an unstuffed bird. If it's stuffed, then you should be allowing around 30 minutes per lb. So not sure where your timings came from but I'm glad you didn't eat undercooked chicken - that would have been not nice at all Also, in order to stop it drying out, you should baste it regularly - sorry, I'll stop giving you cooking tips now

Really enjoyed your reviews and I've also bookmarked your blog as I look forward to reading more of your recipes

Thanks Joh for the tips! I'm certainly no expert in cooking so feedback is always good!
