Let's see the first stop was Downtown Disney........hmmm where to eat.....

RAGLAN ROAD!!!! Waited maybe 5 minutes for a table outside. We had no reservations. It started to rain after we got our drinks & were moved to a table inside VERY quickly.
The dinner:
I ordered the Bangers & Mashed......absolutely DELICIOUS!!! One of the best meals of the trip. Paired well with a Black & Tan beer :thumbsup2
My wife had the Shepheard's Pie with a Hefeweizen. She enjoyed it ALOT!
My son had the mac & cheese....he & my wife agreed it was some of the best mac & cheese you could eat. If we had more days.....we would have eaten here SEVERAL times.

Next stop.....EPCOT.....
After snackng around the Food & WIne festival.....we decided a good meal was in order. I'm a sucker for German cuisine so....OFF TO THE BIERGARTEN!!
Again...no reservations....waited maybe 25mins.
The buffet is HUGE! LOTS of good food here. Schnitzel, Sausages, Potato Dumplings, on & on :goodvibes and of course.....32oz German Beer!!!! My son really enjoyed the OOMPA music which surprised me. All the selections were hot & delicious. 2 :thumbsup2

Ahhh Saturday....my wifs 38th bday....off to the Boardwalk for some lunch!

Big River Grill
Waited 10 minutes for an outside table on a beautiful sunny day. The beers there are AWESOME! 3 Hickory Burgers all around! VERY good burgers....the bun was like a potato bun I think.....very tasty......we really enjoyed this place.

Birthday Dinner at Cinderella's Royal Table.
We hade reservations here & were sent upstairs at the reserved time. I was worried about the food here after a few reviews I read.
My wife ordered the Prime Rib....it was cooked rare to her order & VERY tender & flavorful. I had the Rack of Lamb...it was PERFECT medium rare & exquisite in taste! My son ordered the chicken nuggets an he gobbled them up quick! I pre-ordered my wife an engraved slipper & the champagne toast & it was presented after dinner on a silver serving platter covered in rose petals. Needless to say.......I was Prince Charming for at least a little while! :rotfl:


Hollywood Studios!!!
We didn't eat much this day for some reason.....counter service....ABC Commisary & I forgot the big counter service restaurant's name. Ok food...chicken ceasar wraps, burgers etc. Good.....but isn't all fast food good? :confused3

Monday...must be time to go to BLIZZARD BEACH.
It was freezing cold, so we road all the slides, showered, took some pictures & ate at the main restaurant there....PIZZA! It's good when you're cold & hungry...LOL

Monday night.....dinner at the Swan....KIMONO's it is!!

Now I LOVE sushi. My wife and son have only had California Rolls :sad2: so it was time to enlighten them. :laughing:

We ordered Kobe beef, eel, octopus, salmon, salmon roe, squid, conch, miso soup, yellow tail, shrimp, spicy cajun rolls, and rainbow rolls. To drink? For me...Kirin beer.....for the wife....plum wine.......................................IF YOU LIKE SUSHI GO HERE!!!!!! It is fresh, delicious and a wonderful atmosphere. My son really enjoyed listenning to the karaoke. Now the shocker....it's not cheap..this was the most expensive of the trip........$178!:scared1: + tip! Worth it??? HECK YEAH!

Tuesday..:scared1: ..Magical Kingdom!!! WHere to eat.......HOw abaout Whispering Canyon!!!!

Awesome place! :thumbsup2 We were seated at our reservation time.....what to order? SKILLETS!!!!!!! This is eating! RIbs, chicken, brisket, corn on the cob, corn bread, pulled pork......WOW! It's hard to beat beer & BBQ :cool1:
THe entertainment is great!!!! And don't forget the ketchup!! :lmao:

Wednesday....Animal Kingdom!!! Dang they close early......where to go eat....Epcot closes at 12am so let's go!!! TO RESTAURANT MARRAKESH!

We both ordered the lamb.....it was GOOD! I don't care too much for lamb but it sounded too good. THe couscous...eh.....I didn't care for it....my wife loved it! THe kiddo had pasta & meatballs & loved the meatballs. Our waiter Mustafa was very friendly and joked around with us the whole meal. THe belly dancer was intriguing and made for great entertainment.

AWWW time to go home.....let's have breakfast with Donald at Tusker House!

We waited about 15 minutes after our reservation. THe food was typical of a breakfast buffet but the character interaction was GREAT! Lots of pictures and great entertainment.

Now I did try just about every beer from every country I could as I traveled the parks......most of the beers are AWESOME! Well worth the $6 each. THe rest of our food consisted of popcorn, pasteries, corn dogs etc......these reviews are just of the "big" meals we ate. It seems you can't go wrong with any restaurant.....we were VERY pleased with the food & service everywhere we went.

So many restaurants......so few days to eat!!!! :lmao:
 
Sounds like you had a wonderful time.

I bet your wife enjoyed her extras at Cindy's, what a nice touch.

Thanks so much for sharing!
 
The surprise at CRT for your wife sounds so sweet. Sounds like she had a lovely birthday.

You sound like a man after my husband's heart. He loves his beer! At home, he sticks to Budweiser mainly, but on vacation, he wants to try everything they have, especially what's on tap.
