My Disneyland dining reviews, with pictures

[kristie73]

I took a few food pictures from our Oct 2012 trip. Enjoy!
Boardwalk Pizza & Pasta
Pepperoni Flat Bread Pizza and Portobello Mushroom and Spinach - good enough

Cove Bar
Lobster Nachos (we brought in a corn dog for our kids, it's in the background) - it was okay, not enough lobster

Flo's Cafe
NY Strip Loin with Beef Gravy, Mashed Potatoes, and Pasta Salad - Yum! I was impressed, a few fatty pieces but fine, pasta salad was good.

Kid's Meal Macaroni & Cheese - they liked it!

Carnation Cafe
Huevos Rancheros - hubby said it was small but okay.

Oscar's Choice: All-American Breakfast - this was fine, chicken sausage was a little sweet, bacon next time.

Mickey's Junior Waffle - my kids split this.

Big Thunder Ranch BBQ Dinner
Chicken, Ribs, Sausage, Cole Slaw, Corn on the Cob, Corn Bread, Beans, - Disappointed, not worth the money. We didn't like the slaw, service was terrible. We won't do this again.

Downtown Disney Tortilla Jo's
Jo's Carnitas - hubby thought this was good.

Fajitas pan-seared shrimp - this was good, nice big well cooked shrimp

Kids had cheese quesadilla and it was fine.

We also ate at the Hungry Bear restaurant. I forgot to take pics. Hubby and I split a burger. It was fine. I didn't know it had sauce on it, so next time I'd order it plain. We got the onion rings too. YUM! Kids got a burger and nuggets.

We had other treats too like mickey mouse ice cream sandwiches, cookies, popcorn, and a dole whip float. All great treats.

Oh that fudge looks amazing!

This thread is awesome . We are going to DLR for our first time in June and even though I have read up on some good eats, I am excited to see pictures of them too . I am writing things down as I peruse through the thread.

 

[macleod1979]

Looking at threads with lots of food pictures on there isnt a good idea when you are hungry.

i hear ya! that fudge looks heavenly! my aunt & uncle brought back fudge 4 me when they went t2 their summer house in wisconsin recently

I love Figment's reviews and picture. How come he eats so much and never seems to gain any weight? Can we get his secret?

Does he eat it all, or just take little tastes? I understand he's already stuffed.

(I love him though. Well, at least figment_jii's. )

Thanks! Figment says that he just uses the power of his imagination to imagine away all of the calories!

Unfortunately, Figment had to stay home on the last trip to Disneyland (traveling with a different group), but he's hoping to go to DLR pretty soon!

In the mean time, one of the holiday themed candied apples!

For comparision, we visited San Francisco last month and went to Ghiradelli Square. Here is the World Famous that was served there (same price as at DCA).

Happy Be-Lated Holidays to Everyone! Figment got to go to Disneyland a few weeks before Christmas, but with the holiday activties, he didn't get a chance to post any of his food photos!

Main Street Candy Shop and Trolley Treats
Figment was so happy to finally get one (okay, two) of those wonderful Disneyland hand-made candy canes. He got one of the last wristbands on Friday morning (for DL)! The two candy canes looked very different. The one with the thin lines (left side of photo) is from DL and the one with the fatter lines is from DCA. They're so pretty...he couldn't bear to eat it, so he put it out on display for the holidays!

Trolley Treats
Caramel Apple - They're so cute and he's always wanted to try one! So Figment got the Mickey Santa apple. He transported it home (for easier eating) and it was still really good.

Peanut Butter Marshmallow - the sign outside of Trolley Treats always says their making gourmet marshmallows, so Figment decided to try one. They're much lighter than Jet Puff marshmallows, with real chopped peanuts inside. It was pretty good.

Fidler, Fifer, and Practical Pig Cafe (aka Starbucks) - Figment was impressed that you could actually ask to have the sandwhiches modified (e.g., different bread) and it didn't take a long time for the kitchen to prepare it (unlike over at Jolly Holiday where modifications meant an extra 10-15 minute wait!).
Turkey Rueben Sandwich - Figment asked to have this on the Garlic-Chive Bun, which was really good.

Salami Royale Sandwich - Another good sandwhich.

Southwest Tortilla Soup - It was kind of rainy/cold so a nice warm bowl of soup made Figment feel good. The soup wasn't spicy and was pretty good.

Peppermint Mocha - Can't go to Starbucks without getting his favorite drink!

Clarabelle's Hand-Scooped Ice Cream - While Figment really liked the sandwiches and soup over at Starbucks, he was eyeing the ice cream parlor next door. Even though it was raining and cold, the ice cream looked so good (well, actually, he really wanted the Trolley).

Chocolate Chip Cookie Hot Fudge Sundae - Ice cream plus chocolate chip cookies (soft) plus fudge = yum! (Next time, he wants to see if he can get this with coffee ice cream because that's his favorite.)

Mocha Sundae - Coffee ice cream plus fudge = YUM! Figment's favorite ice cream in a Trolley plus fudge made this one of his favorites for this trip. If he holds in his legs a little, he can fit inside the Trolley!

Mocha Sundae - Another mocha sundae, this time inside the waffle bowl.

Strawberry Sundae - Also really good. The waffle bowl was nice and crispy and huge!

Jolly Holiday
Chocolate Mousse - the chocolate mousse at the Jolly Holiday came in a cute Minnie Mouse demitasse cup. Figment also got the holiday mug to go with the cup.

Big Thunder Ranch BBQ - It's been a long time since Figment's been to the BBQ. He went when it wasn't raining (but threatening) and as a result, it was really cold! Figment was worried his wings would freeze (okay, it wasn't that bad, but it was pretty cold). The food was all really good! Figment especially liked the ribs, beans, and corn bread.

Next time...the French Market, Ralph Brennan's Jazz Kitchen, and River Belle Terrace![/B][/B]

 

[disneylover2005]

I love looking at all the food pictures before I go to Disneyland so I have been trying to remember to take pictures of our food. Here is some from May or Oct 2012.

River Belle Terrace Breakfast -Mark Twain (was pretty good and filling)

Mickey's Rice Krispy

 

[disneylover2005]

Cafe Orleans

Pommes Frites- Simply the best and just looking at the picture makes me crave them.

La Salade de Maison- Pretty good. My mom and I split this and had left over's.

Kids Mac&Cheese-It tasted good. I took a couple bites

Monte Cristo Sandwich- Very filling.

New Orleans Gumbo- Good, my mom thought it was to spicy.

Big Thunder Ranch BBQ

Cole Slaw-None of us liked it. It tastes off.

Baked Beans-They were delicious!

Ribs and Chicken- Both were good!

Corn Bread-Very Good!

 

[disneylover2005]

Pumpkin "Mickey" shaped Beignets - Not as good as the original ones

Red Rockett's Pizza Port

R2D2 with a Chocolate Parfait

Dole Whip

Salted Mickey Pretzel with Cheese Sauce

Carnation Cafe

Fried Pickles with Dipping Sauce-A little spicy but oh so good!

Baked Potato Soup- Hole reason going to Carnation Cafe and we were all disappointed by the taste and size of this.

 

[SGDisneyFam]

Are the pickles from carnation cafe as well?

 

[awdsmama]

I really shouldn't have looked at the pictures before having breakfast today.

 

[disneylover2005]

Are the pickles from carnation cafe as well?

Yes they are. I thought they were really good and the dipping sauce as well.
I always look at the pictures before our next trip and of course it always makes me hungry.

That little trolley that the ice cream is served in is so cute! I'll definitely be getting one on my next trip. Great pictures, as always!
