Really enjoying your reviews. I really want to meet Anna and Elsa!
I really want to try the Mickey Kitchen sink but I think I would want PB sauce... wonder if I could add it for additional $$ DH is now yelling at me because he says I would eat 3 bites of the$23 sundae
Thanks!
I want the peanut butter sauce too. I wonder if they would add it for some extra money. I'll have to investigate. It did just drop in price to $15.99, so that isn't too bad. That's a little more worth it if you have to try and eat it on your own.
joining in
Thanks for joining in!
Great review of the Flower & Garden booths, Jeri!
There were so many things that I had wanted to try but unfortunately the weather did not cooperate with my plans. On the two days that I planned to snack at the booths, the first was really hot (causing me to seek air conditioned dining
) and on the second it was pouring down rain.
I am determined though to do better at the F & W booths in October.
Thanks Barb! Too bad about the weather. It's not easy to do those booths in the rain or sweltering heat. The heat is what always slows us down at F&W too. We were lucky to have such amazing weather this trip. Hopefully the weather cooperates with you in October!
Great flower n garden rundown. That taco and the duck looked awesome. Never had the fortune to do the festival but definitely want to give it a try sometime. How are the crowds compared to F&W?
The taco and the duck were definitely my two favorites! The crowds were much lighter compared to F&W. We never really waited more than a minute or two in line. I think a lot of people don't even realize what the food booths are. Works for me!
Love the Flower & Garden booth update! The lemon cheesecake at Italy was one of my favorites from the F&G booths (I visited for a weekend in March and got to try some things, but didn't have time to write a review). The gnocchi dish was also good.
I actually liked the F&G dishes even more than the F&W ones I tried in the fall, as many of them were lighter and more focused on fresh produce.
Rob really enjoyed the cheesecake too! He's a sucker for a good cheesecake. I don't know that I liked the options more than the F&W offerings, but like you said, I did like the focus on the fresh aspect. They incorporated fresh fruits or veggies into every dish. I can't wait to see F&W menus for this fall. I need to plot out my course of action for my one day there.
Wow you guys were able to sample a lot of the offerings!! That is a shame about the bacon cupcake, I saw people with it, but I just could not bring myself to try it. You had your own little food and wine festival going on!! Love it
I think that too many places are trying too hard to push this bacon in desserts fad. It really just doesn't work most of the time. Good concept, but not the best execution. We definitely did try to create our own F&W fest! It is beyond enjoyable to walk around WS sipping a beer and taking it all in.
I have not tried The Big Squeeze yet but I will add it to my "wish list" of beers that I need to try lol.
I recently discovered that a local beer store sells the grapefruit beer that they served in Germany in Epcot so I need to get there STAT.
Everyone raves about this Violet Lemonade so I thought for sure it would be something special. It's kind of disappointing to know that it is just regular lemonade. Oh well. At least its purple. Purple lemonade is still cooler than yellow lemonade.
Oh man, I still can't find that grapefruit beer near me. I'm starting to think it's a myth.
Purple lemonade is DEFINITELY cooler than yellow lemonade! You just have to enjoy the little things sometimes.
Hi there! Coming out of lurkdom to say I'm joining in!
My family and I left on the day you arrived - glad to hear the beautiful weather continued for your trip! We tried as many booths as we could (usually we were way too full), but our favorites were the frushi, Gnocchi, and popping bubble tea!
Thanks for joining in! You do get full fast in Disney. It's hard to try everything you want because you're always trying to work off the last big meal. I never got around to trying the bubble tea. That sounded interesting though!
We only ended up doing 3 of the booths for F&G. I wasn't terribly dissapointed as going into it there wasn't a lot that appealed to me. My husband has already made it clear that in October we are doing more of the booths though.
Rob wasn't really into many of the food options. However, he's never met a beer or wine he didn't like.
I could spend most of my time at F&W when that is going on. There are too many booths! It felt like a lot to try at F&G, but F&W has more than double that amount of booths. It seems hard to believe!
We just added Trails End to our ADR's for next month because ur pics look so awesome!!! We tend to go offsite for breakfast quite a bit so on site will be a treat for us!! Loving your report so far!!
Thanks so much for reading along! So happy that you are trying Trail's End! I hope you all enjoy it as much as we do. That will be great to have an on-site breakfast. At least it's fairly inexpensive there. By Disney standards at least.
ohhhh well I am sure I can find all kinds of yummy food..
