Sounds great! I'll be waiting for your pictures.
 

LOL if this was WDW I would know 6 weeks in advance:rotfl2:, i almost have my list done, maybe even tonight i should have it done.
 
At Carthay Circle last month - Liver and "onions" - it was really good.
Chicken livers with onions and bacon, along with a lovely salad.

A funny thing happened on the way to Disneyland...

I was given an opportunity to have dinner at Club 33 and well, when that happens, you don't say no!


I got the Vintner's Menu (this is not my picture, I forgot to take a picture):


The amuse-bouche was a deconstructed paella on the left and a green bean seltzer shooter with some type of creme (can't remember!). DH is adorable in that his fine dining experience is pretty limited and he had to ask me how to eat this ;)


Now, what you need to know about the next four pictures is that despite reminding myself each and every time, I kept forgetting to take a picture BEFORE I took my first bite. I couldn't help it I was just so eager to dig in!!! My apologies

First Course: Heirloom tomato salad with feta, pecan maple scone, and champagne vinaigrette. This was great!


Second Course: This was the yummiest thing of the night for me! Coldwater prawn with lemon verbena bisque and a crispy scallop. SOOOOOOOOOO GOOOOOOD! Wish there was more!


Third Course: Also delicious, grilled hanger steak with a corn brioche popover and cider cream :)


Cheese Course: Unfortunately I didn't pay enough attention to my server when he brought this out. He said the one on the left was cheese made with a mix of sheep's and cow's milk, the middle was a soft goat's cheese, and the one on the right was a "German's take on Swiss cheese" lol. I liked the two hard cheese on the outside, not too much a fan of the one in the middle.


We got two desserts. My tasting menu came with a peach creme fraiche semifreddo, blueberry soup, and lime pound cake. DH got a chocolate mousse roulade with cherry sorbet. Both, obviously, yummo :)


Overall, it was just plain awesome... awesome to go because who knows when or if I'll get to again, awesome to be there during the Halloween fireworks that we could watch right there from our table, awesome to tour around the club afterward...just...plain...awesome. May everyone have a chance to go someday!!! :wizard::wizard::wizard:

Glad I'm not the only one !! 55 sleeps :D
 
LOL. Not only do I have a calendar for all of our dining reservations, but this year I am going to make a list of all the things I want to eat. I have never had a churro (I know gasp right!!??) for this year. I get very excited!!!
We are going to have lunch at Carnation Cafe so I can have the pickles. LOL. I do not like the veggie burger option, but I LOVE the pickles. DH will more than likely have a regular burger, I will have pickles and a salad (yup..I know what I want).

:rotfl2:
 
This is probably one of my favorite threads!! I love anything and everything food, and seeing all the pictures makes me drool!!! Going next month and can't wait to eat my way through Disneyland!!! :cool1:
 
Hi All - Figment and I just got back from a trip to DLR and it was our first time at Carthay Circle Theater. I have to say, we really liked it! (So much so that we made an impromptu reservation for lunch after having dinner there!) Here are some of our photos from Carthay Circle.

At both dinner and lunch we had the Carthay House Biscuits. We were a little worried about the jalapenos in them, but decided to try them anyway. They were so good! Nothing like a biscuit; they were more like a fritter. They had a nice crispy outer coating and then a soft inner filling.

Figment also tried the Signature Fire Cracker Duck Wings. The meat was nice and moist, but the sauce was so spicy! The server warned us, so we knew. The spicy-food lover in group ate most of them because they were just to hot for the milder-food eaters in the group.

For dinner, Figment tried the Cavatelli Pasta with Tuscan-style Braised Lamb (top), Grilled Quail (middle), and Bacon-wrapped Shrimp (bottom). All three entrees were very good. The lamb was tender and had a nice rich flavor. The quails were very tender (as well). The shrimp were tasty, but the sauce was kind of sweet.

At lunch, Figment tried the Strawberry-Lemon Roasted Organic Chicken Salad (top) and Grilled Angus Flank Steak Cobb Salad (bottom). The chicken salad was really good. It was light and the dressing, despite having buttermilk, wasn't anything like a ranch dressing. The Cobb salad was heavier, but still good. It isn't like the Cobb salad from HBD, but it was still really yummy.

The inside the restaurant was really pretty with lots of attention to detail. The servers encourage you to look around after you've finished.
