Lunch – San Angel Inn
Max was already hungry for lunch so we headed into the World Showcase and took a ride on the Gran Fiesta Tour. I wanted to go to the bathroom and wash our hands before lunch and we were directed all the way over to Norway to the restrooms so it took a while to get back and get checked in for lunch… I don’t know why they sent us away because later I saw that there were restrooms right there in the restaurant! Oh well, no biggie. We were seated right away for lunch and our server, Eduardo took care of us well.
I ordered a Coke and the Sopa Azteca for my appetizer and it was very good… just very simple chile-tomato broth with some tortilla chip strips, cheese, and avocado – it hit the spot – I was happy with my choice, Max liked it too.
For my entrée I had the Corvina with tomatillo sauce and mushrooms.
It wasn’t good. I think the fish was fine – it was dry, but I could’ve lived with that if the sauce was good. The truth is, it smelled horrible… really dreadful. I can’t even describe the smell, but it was so unappetizing that I couldn’t even eat more than three bites of the fish and I only tasted a couple of the mushrooms before I gave up on it. Eduardo noticed that it was mostly untouched and he really wanted to bring me the Mahi-Mahi, but I told him I was fine and I didn’t need another dish.
I had the White Chocolate Mousse with Berries and Caramel Sauce for dessert.
It wasn’t great, the texture was strange and the whipping cream or whatever they make the mousse with was just too greasy and rich for me – it gave my mouth that greasy film – yuck.
Max didn’t want anything on the kid’s menu, so we asked Eduardo if they could make a cheese enchilada for him, he said they could do a Quesadilla without the chicken, so Max agreed to that.
It came with Mexican Rice and a mixture of Corn, Carrots and Peas. He also had a Chocolate Milk.
For dessert he had the Horchata Gelatin – it was OK.
He ate all of the quesadilla and all of the rice; he really liked it. I wasn’t very pleased with this meal. I would like to try the place again though, I’d just order something different and would probably have the flan or skip dessert. Maybe I should’ve kept the Tutto Italia reservation – I know it is a much better restaurant… I just wasn’t really in the mood for it today.
On our way out of Epcot that evening we were stopped by a CM who asked us if we’d eaten at an Epcot restaurant that day and asked if we’d be so kind as to complete a 7-minute dining survey for them, so we did. It was a computer survey and was quick and easy to complete and gave a good opportunity to comment on our dining experience. Hopefully it does some good.
Stay tuned for our dinner at Boma. This has always been one of our favorites... will it stay on our list of must-do restaurants?
