My Disneyland dining reviews, with pictures

[spacemermaid]

hungrygreenhippo: Be sure to try the fried green tomato sandwich! Have fun on your trip!!!

Poohs100AcreWood: what a cute picture of the Mickey bread!

That looks like new bread with the chicken fusilli. Please tell me they've replaced the dry, flavorless focaccia bread with something tasty!

So I see pictures from the Lucky Fortune Cookery...anyone have a review? Good? Price idea? I want to eat at new places this time around..

can not wait to get there and eat. There are so many things on my list. I am hoping to be returning with tons of food pics.

Lynzer Torte: That's actually from an order of the bread sticks we ordered separately. No bread came with the meal.

EmmersIsTheMommy: I think the bowl and my drink cost me somewhere around $10. I had this twice during a two visits within a two-week span. The first time was good, but the second time was horrible. I went right after opening at 11am, but the beef was fatty and the taste was just...off. I think if I go back, I'll get the chicken.

Ok thank you. I haaate when they can't be consistent! Maybe I'll try the chicken

I assumed that since the focaccia is/was a separate item as well. Just wondering if they've replaced it.

Wow that chicken baked potato looks amazing!!

DW and I each had this when we went in November. The BBQ sauce on it was way too sweet for our tastes. But then, most BBQ sauces sold in the stores nowdays are too sweet for us - it's getting harder to find a nice tangy BBQ sauce. Anyway, we weren't fond of it. OTOH, DGD ordered the traditional bacon and sour cream. It was delicious! Of course, DW & I didn't order it because of cholesterol, but ended up wishing we had.

I hate sweet bbq too. Thanks for the warning! I like tangy and some heat.

You say the delish fried green tomato sandwish comes with ANCHOVY sauce?! Does it taste like anchovies?! I despise fish and seafood so was wondering! Perhaps I could substitute for something else or bring my own little condiemt? Was the coleslaw on the sandiwsh moist enough do you think?

Wonderfully delicious chiliburger from the Hungry Bear in Critter Country. You know how alot of times chili on a burger is just an afterthought? Well, this chili was good enough to eat all by itsself, and was just the perfect amount of spicy (I hate bland chili!). The bun was freshly baked & the onion rings were A-MAZE-ING Props to whoever came up with the new Hungry Bear menu, and the people who prepare the food there; since the menu change, I've had nothing but delicious meals there!

Also from the Hungry Bear: fried green tomato sandwich, with sweet potato fries. This is part of the reason that I didn't take that many food pictures whilst in the Park this time around: because I ate this meal on 3 seperate occasions...I like it THAT much The fried tomatoes are paired with fresh heirloom tomatoes, which keeps the sandwich from being dry. The slaw adds a tangy flavor, the bread is fresh & yummy, and the sauce ties it all together perfectly. If you've been thinking of trying this, please do next time...you'll be glad you did

I expected to take more food pics on this trip, but due to getting the same meal 3 different times & eating outside the Park on a few nights, this is all I got.

I'm am SO glad that they included both those items on the new menu and can't wait to try them in two weeks! I was part of a taste testing group for the new menu and was totally in love with both of these options.

That is so cool that you got to try these before everyone else did! Was there anything in the taste test that they ended up leaving off the final menu? How does one get to be on a Disney taste test group? I'd LOVE to do that!

It was in my November trip in 2010 and I was approached as we entered in the morning. They asked me a few questions and then asked if I would be interested. I was compensated for my time but I would have done it for free! They seemed to be looking specifically for annual pass holders. We tried the chili burger and sweet potato fries, the fried green tomato sammich and two salads. The salad they didn't keep was really gross and the chicken tasted weird, no one liked it. But no one really liked the salad they kept either. I think we only tried 4 things but I don't really remember.

I was totally heartbroken when I found out that was the restaurant they were changing but it turned out to definitely be for the better!

I'm thinking I need the green tomato sandwich. Yessir.

Thanks for the info...I hope a CM approaches me with such an offer if this kind of thing happens again!
