My Disneyland dining reviews, with pictures

[mommaU4]

Bread pudding from Jazz Kitchen in DTD. My son and husband love this! Very good for bread pudding fans.

Beignets from Jazz Kitchen. I like these, but I've heard some people say they are just ok compared to others that are sold in the park.

Mickey bread from Pacific Wharf bakery. This sourdough bread is heaven on earth to me! We ate it in the car on the way to our next stop with some butter. YUM!!! It's a must buy every time we are there.

Breakfast from Lilo and Stitch buffet. This was our first character meal, so I can't compare it to others, but I really enjoyed the interaction and the food. I'd definitely go back and would recommend to anyone.

Birthday dessert from Lilo and Stitch buffet. This was good but my twins didn't like the strawberry glaze on the top of the chocolate.

Corn dog and chips. Another must buy. Very good and so huge as you can see!

Vegetarian gumbo from Royal Street Veranda. Again, love the bread. The gumbo itself was good too. Even my kids liked it which is rare as they are so dang picky.

Bavarian pretzel with cheese dip from Enchanted Cottage Treats. This was good. The cheese dip was actually a little spicy. Had a small kick to it.

Knockwurst with peppers and onions and chips. Also a German chocolate cake brownie. Both from Enchanted Cottage Treats. Loved the knockwurst with the peppers. You can also get sauerkraut if you prefer. The brownie was just ok. Nothing I'd get again. Too many other yummy foods, like funnel cakes! LOL

Chicken skewers from Bengal BBQ. A new favorite of ours. The kids all liked these.

Tiger tail bread from Bengal BBQ. These weren't good. They were too dry in my opinion and I wouldn't get these again.

 

[mommaU4]

Funnel cake from Mint Julep bar covered in chocolate and strawberry sauce, with whip cream. Very messy, but soooo good.

New Orleans fritters with fruit dipping sauce from Mint Julep bar. I wasn't sure what to expect with these, but they were good. The fruit dipping sauce was really good too, and after the fritters were gone, we ended up eating the sauce by itself. LOL

Chimichanga from cart. (sorry it's blurry!) Ok, this surprised me. I wasn't expecting much. I didn't think it would be good at all and almost didn't spend the 5 bucks to get it. I'm so glad I did. It was really good. Not too spicy. It's got beef and beans, and all my girls liked it. They wanted me to buy another one. It's pretty filling too, so it would make a nice meal on the go kind of thing.

Treats in the case at Pooh's Corner. Needless to say they all look yummy. LOL I posted the pretzel, apple, and strawberry that I got on the other page. They were all good. I probably wouldn't get the strawberry again. At $4 it's too pricey imo. The caramel apples are worth it though.

 

[mommaU4]

Chocolate cake from The Golden Horseshoe. This thing is HUGE! We got one piece and all 6 of us shared it. And that was still plenty for all of us. It was nice and moist. A must try for chocolate cake fans.

And my new favorite drink! A Tinkerbell Twist which is sour watermelon and sour apple slushie blended together. So good I had 3 of them while we were there!!

 

[mommaU4]

Pin trader's sundae from the Disney Soda Fountain in Hollywood:

Mickey's Masterpiece Sundae at Disney Soda Fountain. This had 8 large scoops of ice cream of your choice. Caramel, chocolate, marshmellow, nuts if you want them, 8 cherries and an entire can of whip cream!!!

 

[prettyprincessbelle]

Beth!! Your food is making me hungry!!! Seriously!

Where can you find the Tinkerbell Twists? I want one!

Plus, that sundae looks amazing! Did your whole family finish it!?!?

I bought the Tinkerbell Twists from those carts they have in DCA that sell the frozen slushies. NOT the Minute Maid frozen lemonade cups. I don't like those.

These are different. There is one cart in Bug's Land and one next to the Orange Stinger. They are $4 for a regular and sooooo good. IF you like sour things that is. If not, they also sell raspberry lemonade slushies, which was my old favorite.

The sundae was amazing! We were seated at a table in the middle of the room close to the store side, and when she brought it out they made a big deal about it.

She said something like, "Ladies, and gentlemen, boys and girls. Let me have your attention. You've read all about it, and you've seen it on the menu, but you've never seen it in person until now! Here it is the one and only Mickey's Masterpiece. (then she went on to describe what was in it) And this brave family over here is going to attempt to eat it all!!"

Then everyone who was already staring at the waitress all turned their attention to us and started clapping!! It was a little embarrassing, but fun.

To answer your question though, no, we didn't finish it all. I have four kids, so I figured 2 scoops per kid. But these were monster scoops! So they couldn't quite do it. It was a lot of fun though. Probably the only time in my life I've spent $45 (total) on ice cream!

Beth it all looks good to me. I have to show my husband the picture tonight after work. Where exactly in Hollywood is the Disney Soda Fountain?

It's right next door to the El Capitan theater, which is across from the Chinese theater with all the hand and foot prints. We parked in the parking structure at the Hollywood and Highland shopping center and the rate wasn't bad and it was a nice secure parking area.

So if you were in the area you could also go to the El Capitan and see a movie. We were going to do that but they were currently showing the new Narnia movie and I wasn't interested in seeing that. If it had been Wall E which is what's playing there next, I would have seen that.

Holy crud! Beth you are my hero!

I may sound terrible but we are working out with Richard Simmons one night and I figured we could stop there afterwards.

I have more food pics from our trip, but they aren't of DL so I didn't think I should post them here. They are from places like Olvera Street, Porto's bakery in Glendale, danishes from Solvang, etc.

I am working on my TR (the link is in my sig, 2nd one) and I will be posting those pics in there as I come to those days if anyone is interested in seeing more yummy food.

Well, at least that way the calories wouldn't hurt you as much.

Holy crud! Beth you are my hero!

I wish you and Maddie could have been there with us. She could have helped them eat it all!

 

[Missy1961]

Beth, those pictures are fantastic!!! I don't think I'd like that drink, I don't like sour stuff. (Sammie & Dana asked me to buy them Sour Patch kids--I couldn't eat them, meanwhile Sammie is eating 3 at a time!) But I want that ice cream. If I had been there with you guys, we would have finished it.

Thanks Missy. I can't eat those sour candies either. But I did love this drink. Ruben thought it was too sour, the kids and I thought it was just right.

I know!

Why don't you come out here and I'll buy you one. Then you can see for yourself.

Somehow Richard would know

Can you get the chicken skewers without the sauce? I have a picky 4 yr old.

 

[daisy_77]

We loved the Tinker Bell twist, too! I was about to have a meltdown in a bug's land when the stand wasn't open. Here is our version of the Tink drink:

Yum!

I'm sorry but I honestly don't know. I don't see why not. You could probably ask for it on the side. But my kids are really picky too. Chicken nuggets and PB&J is about all they'll eat. But all four of them agreed this was good. The sauce isn't spicy or too strong of a flavor, so you might be surprised.

I wish you got more chicken though. It's $3 and some change for one skewer. We ordered two because they are on the small side. They also have vege skewers and other items as well.
The line was so long when we were there though. I kept walking by and the line was always about a 20 minute wait. Finally I got lucky and found it at a low point and only had to wait about 5 minutes. Must be a popular place. LOL

We loved the Tinker Bell twist, too!

Yum!

You are the one who turned me on to it! LOL I didn't see them the last time we were there, and I usually get the raspberry lemonade flavor. So when you mentioned that you liked them, I had to try it and OMG, it was so good!
I love it when they first serve it and the red and green are mixed. Oooooh, pretty colors.

"Chocolate cake from The Golden Horseshoe."

OK, that looks suspiciously like Safeway/Von's bakery's Colossal Cake. Which is spectacularly yummy and fabulous, but I bet the Colossal Cake is less expensive!

Perhaps I'll have to have one next time I'm at DL, just to see if it is indeed Colossal Cake.



Loved your pix Beth!


I should post my pictures from WWS! Ooh we loved that place.
