Yummy! I've heard fabulous things about the food at Trail's End, both breakfast and dinner, and it looks delicious! And at such a great price too, if only it wasn't so out of the way (which is why I'm sure it stays at such a great price). I definitely want to schedule a trip out there for our next time out.
I am sure the location has something to do with the price. I also think they are sensitive to "camping" budget versus more of a traditional moderate resort.
It is worth the trip though!
I have to tell you, after your post about the Soarin' music as an alarm song, I added it into my list. Love it!
A yummy buffet full of good BBQ and comfort foods sounds perfect after a wet and soggy day. How much is TE?
It varies by season and day of the week but around $24-26. They take TIW. So it's not "cheap" but by Disney Buffet prices, it is and it's great for the true kid price ($13-14)
I am glad the evening got better.
Have been meaning to try Trails End but my stupid allergies might get in the way.
Maybe in Aug? Will be a short boat ride or walk over.
You'd definitely need to meet with the chef but given how huge the spread is I would think there are some things that would work.
The food looks good and I am sure the comfort food hit the spot.
The food was fabulous
Congrats on running the race on so little sleep! You're motivated!
Not so sure about motivated but I'd promised Jeff and the fact that it turned into a family and community event helped lessen the pain of the idea. the reality is that it is about what I'd have run at home that day anyway as normal routine so other than the getting up early (and the time change did help with that actually) it wasn't that bad. It was the getting to bed late that sucked!
I don't think we could have held it together for dinner after a long day like you had. Especially being wet...yuck! At least the food was worth it!
It was worth it and honestly, the idea of all trying to eat in the villa, which we discussed as an option and bailing on the ressie since we did have the fixings for taco bar (though now I worry they'd have tried to charge the room since I did have a card on file) but as you know, the BWV kitchen and dining area just really doesn't fit that many for eating very well at all and felt like far more work than the trek to TE.
Welcome home, glad to hear you had a fab time, I'd love to do a girlie trip like that, if only I lived closer to WDW.
You could do a girlie trip to DLP
It was a fab trip!!!
Great news on raising so much money for a good cause. Evan wasn't interested in running then? (not that I blame him!)
Nope. He flat out refused. Wouldn't even consider the 1 or 4 mile walk. In all fairness he was in the middle of the HS musical and stretched to the limit in terms of time and energy between that and school. He ran in MS, did XC and Track but had lots of issues with what was then diagnosed as PF or tendonitis. It wasn't either, it was a growth plate issue but either way he associates running with pain and won't do it. He wouldn't have that kind of pain now but mentally he's got to get over it first and I get that.
I'm sure i'll make it to TE one day but probably not on my next trip, my restaurant list is already too long.
It's hard to narrow it down, isn't it?
It looks like I will definitely have to revisit the menu. 
It looks like a great meal. I've never been to TE before, but it is definitely on my list and your pictures move it up a little higher!
