My Disneyland dining reviews, with pictures

[Disneyluvr2]

OMG that baked potato soup is worth the cost of airfare right there!

LOL!!! So true, So true!!!

 

[tinkermell]

Oooooh!!

That potato soup looks absolutley delicious!!!! That will be on my list to try on our next trip!!

 

[vflipo]

I feel better about loving that soup now. I'm glad I'm not the only one that wanted to die when I saw it... Well, maybe not that extreme. But YUM YUM!!! I guess I'll just have to plan another trip sometime soon so I can get that dish.

I just had a question that probably has already been answered but we all know how lovely the search is here. Anyway we're going next week and I really want to eat at Cafe Orleans one of the days we're there. Can you get PS there? If so, is it absolutely necessary to do so or would I still be able to get in?? We have PS at Blue Bayou for dinner on Wednesday. We'll be there Monday through Friday (leaving at about 5 or 6 on Friday so we won't be there all day). Any tips would be appreciated. DH and I are really excited for the Pomme Frites. mmmm they look SOOOO good And, I want to try my first Monte Cristo. Thanks guys

I always make a ps for cafe orleans, we like to sit out side and watch the people and pirates go by. The 3 cheese monte is my fav and those pomme frites are great. have fun!

In the afternoon, we both had a Dole whip float while enjoying a Tiki Room performance.

Where do I go to get one of these infamous dole whips? After listening to everyone rave about them, I want to try one!

 

[DSNY4ever]

The delicious pineapple whips are at the Dole food stand that is right at the entrance to the Tiki room. Ahhh...I love the dole whip!

 

[jernysgirl]

Thanks so much! I can't wait to try it!

Corpsebride, I haven't had the too-salty experience that you did. Well, maybe one time the vegetarian gumbo was on the salty side, but that was a one-off experience.


jernysgirl, if you're traveling with several people, may I recommend that you only buy ONE dole whip product to see if you like them, before buying a bunch and finding out that you think they taste like pineapple-flavored melted plastic? We just KNEW we would love them, and ordered a whip and a float, and they were just awful. Well, to me, at least. And DS and DH certainly didn't need one item each, so we should have just bought one.

The baked potato soup at Carnation Cafe is to DIE FOR!

OMG.... that is the FIRST thing I will be getting when I get to DL the next time!!!!!!!!!!!!

We had gone back to Disneyland on the 17th. We had just gone on the 14th and had the very salty food at Plaza Inn. Well, when we went back, we went straight to City Hall. I was talking to the Plaid at the counter and was telling her about the salty food experiences we have had. A man right behind us , joined in asking if we were complaining about the food. He looked quite upset.He said he had just eaten at the BB with his DW and the food was awful. And of course he looked upset. The last time I at at BB was in may of last year. The food looked bad, tasted bad and was very expensive.
So, anyway, the man put in his complaint too. I , in my complaint form, told the PTB that I live right up the freeway from Dland and am at their disposal on how to improve the food. I left all kinds of contact info. I told them how much we DF and I LOVE LOVE LOVE all things Disney except for the food. We love Disney so much that we are having a Disney Wedding.
Well folks, still waiting for that call.
Oh, and believe me, when we have our food tasting,I will be meeting with the chef, lol.
So,I will keep you posted. I am not holding my breath

I am sorry to say that I have always been pretty disappointed with the food. Excellent food would make DL just about perfect for me. I just make do and order a lot of salads (and eat a lot of ice cream ). I don't terribly mind most of the food I just don't think it's anything to get excited about. I love DL enough that it's not a big deal to me.

I just figure that the prices of the food are driven by the fact that it's located inside the park and not by the quality. I also think the quality is lower because they have to feed a LOT of people at once on any given day. Feeding the masses often requires building efficiencies that compromise quality.

Okay anyone know where to get this? Was it at a food stand called Pooh's corner? I have never seen this before and I really want to try it! I tried looking for it on the Allears.net food menus and couldn't find it.

That was mine. I still have dreams about it. YUM.

You won't find it on the menu listings, it's not actually a restaurant. Pooh's Corner is a shop back by the Winnie the Pooh ride. One section is souveniers and another is a candy shop. They've got tons of treats including cookies, chocolate dipped pretzel rods, chocolate dipped marshmallows (and the famous Tigger Tails), fudge, and all kinds of other treats.

They might also sell the Smore at Candy Palace on Main Street. I haven't actually looked for it there, but they have a lot of the same candy at both places.

yes. it is in critter corner. Its a candyshop/souvineer shop. Its right around splash mountain. They have wonderful sweets that look almost cartoonish. So very willie wonka like. I had a chocolate covered caramel on a stick last week. I almost never eat that much sugar and I was OFFFF LIKE A ROCKET!! it was so sweet and yummy! If you have a sweet tooth, that is the place! everything looks really gourmet ,I think they make everything there, I saw big food racks through a window. Oh, and this is really cool, if you tell them its your birthday and ask for your birthday call , they will call and goofy or another character will wish you happy birthday on the phone, at least that is what happend to my friend a few weeks ago!
