We arrived in Orlando around 11AM. Our Parkhoppers were for 10 days so we didn't go to the parks on the first 4.
Upon arrival, we were told that we got upgraded to concierge!
We were SO excited. What a great start to the vacation!
I'll find some time to squeeze in the concierge reviews, but now it's time for the first WDW meal.
We decided to go to Downtown Disney. The only place that came to mind was Earl of Sandwich.
After hearing SO many reviews about EoS on DIS, I couldn't resist begging, err..suggesting, that we make EoS our first meal.
We paid OOP for this one, so no desserts here.
Now, this was the first time I was prepared to take pictures of food so I was a bit nervous. Flash or no flash? What about
the tables to my right? They'll think I'm strange!
But I'd never see them again so I snapped away!
I wanted to try The Original 1762 - fresh roasted beef, cheddar and creamy horseradish sauce
Okay. It was alright. I was expecting something more after hearing about it so much here. It tasted like I was biting into a cheeseburger, which was good. Cheeseburgers are good. But I think it was the horseradish that I wasn't too fond of. I guess I just don't like horseradish in general.
Dale (brother) and I both ordered a different sandwich so we could split them. He liked the Original more than his. I liked his more than mine.
He ordered the The Full Montagu - roast beef and turkey with cheddar and Swiss cheese, romaine lettuce, tomato and Earl's mustard
This one I liked a lot. It was really good. The mustard made it a little spicy (or maybe it was because he added extra dijon mustard after ordering it.)
Mom
got the Tuna Melt - albacore tuna salad and Swiss cheese
I apologize for the dark picture; I didn't use flash.
She really liked the Tuna Melt. It's what I think I'd get next time. It looked really good.
Mom ordered Chip a kid's Roasted Turkey and Swiss sandwich but he never ate it. Nobody opened it so it ended up in the garbage.
I didn't get a picture of it.
The bread is what MADE the sandwiches. It was really crusty on the outside but chewy on the inside. It was hot and I could have eaten it by itself contently.
For dinner we ordered pizza out. It wasn't WDW's so it was good.
Next up, Day 2! Boardwalk Bakery. I might start with the concierge offerings because we didn't eat much on day 2.

Here we are at our 2nd day of wonderful Disney. In the morning, we ate breakfast on the balcony and sat outside in the warm Florida sun. Today we decided to revisit Downtown Disney and make a sidetrip to the other Epcot area resorts. We visited the beautiful Swan and Dolphin and the Boardwalk.
We didn't eat anything at Downtown Disney, except for these:
Peanut butter filled Ghirardelli chocolates. I wonder how many they give out a day! Everytime we stepped into Ghirardelli someone was handing these chocolates out.
Peanut butter is my favorite. I could eat peanut butter sandwiches every day, really. And peanut butter dipped cookies, apples, and bananas! The best! These chocolates weren't like Reese's Cups. The peanut butter is liquidy and there are tiny crunchy bits of peanuts in there. I had a lot throughout the trip. (And bought some packs back home!)
After some more Downtown Disney shopping (and several "pinch me, I can't believe I'm in Disney!!" requests later) we walked over to the bus stops and took a bus to the Swan and Dolphin. Every bus came at LEAST twice until the Swan and Dolphin one came!
Ahh..the Dolphin. Home! I love the Dolphin, and visiting again made me so happy! We first went into Picabu, just to look around. After that we strolled to Daisy's Garden and bought a pack of these:
These are AMAZING. They're creamy and coconuty and chewy and chocolatey. We actually made a really funny scene at Daisy's. After opening a package, Mom and I had a coconut patty each. (There are two in a package.) After finishing it, we walked back into Daisy's and proceeded to buy 6 more packages!
We even brought home 8 big boxes of them (with 12 individually wrapped coconut patties in each) and gave them away as souvenirs.
After leaving the Dolphin, we walked over to the Boardwalk. Dale was hungry but didn't know where to go eat. I pointed to the Boardwalk To-Go stand and he decided to get a hot dog.
"One hot dog please." WAIT! Mom walked up to the counter and said "Why don't you get a foot long? Give him a foot long."
Well, the foot long was HUGE!
That picture did NOT do it any justice. The hot dog was SO much bigger than it looks. It was really funny! And he ate it while we browsed around in Seashore Sweets.
We then walked to the Boardwalk Bakery. Chip wanted a Mickey Cake. He remembers having one last year and requested it, so we got him one.
Aww, this one is a little messy. Last year's Mickey Cake was perfect! He ate this one all, but left me a bite. It's golden sponge cake with colorful sprinkles inside. Nothing special, but you know what we say about Mickey shaped food! It was still really good.
That's actually it for today. I fixed my concierge reviews dilemma by reviewing the club room after I finish all the other reviews so everything is more organized.
Next up, Day 3! Planet Hollywood.

That chocolate coconut treat from the Dolphin looks dreamy!! My mother-in-law would love this! Can you get these anywhere else besides the Dolphin? World of Disney store maybe??

Thanks.WOW....nice update with my FAVORITE treats!!! YUM!
Thanks for the update, I just love the Boardwalk!
The Boardwalk is one of my favorite places at night. I love when they bring the magicians and such. They're wrapped packages so they should be at most gift shops and WDW stores. I'm pretty sure they had boxes of them at World of Disney. They were by the packaged sweets (like the chocolate covered pretzels, assorted chocolates, etc.)
