Ok this is my mostly counter service reviews. I took quite a few pictures and will try to get thru this over the next few days.

Cast of character: Me:goodvibes , DH, and DS(12)

I will try to post a picture then comments below the picture. I'll then give overall comments then I will rate the food.

Any comments on the picture size or anything would be appreciated. This is my first time posting pictures and I think the pictures maybe too large.

Also any questions you may have about my reviews or any of the places we went, please feel free to ask.

Chicken Wrap
DisneyMay22-June22008046.jpg

I had the Chicken Wrap. Overall it tasted OK but was soggy and fell apart on me.

Double Cheeseburger
DisneyMay22-June22008047.jpg

DH and DS both got the Double Cheeseburger. The meat was dry on both burgers. DH said it tasted like it had been sitting around for awhile. He said it was better after he put some toppings on it.

Overall Comments - The food was just OK. The toppings helped make the so-so better. I also want to let everyone know the hot cheese is back on the bar.

3 of us shared 2 chicken wraps last year and really enjoyed them. They are HUGE though...we laughed that the wrap was as big as my ds2's head! I can see how they'd get soggy with the sauce on them, the wrap isn't really that thick (which is kinda a good thing) but the sauce could douse it and get it wet.

Can't wait for more reviews!
 

We're heading down one week from today and doing mostly counter service, so I'm anxious to hear your reviews and see the photos.

Hot Italian Deli Sandwich
DisneyMay22-June22008054.jpg

This turned out to be a pretty good sandwich. It had ham, turkey, swiss, and provolone. It was toasted and the cheese was good and melted. It had some pesto and ceasar dressing on it that gave it a good flavor. It came with a bag of chips but I didn't bother to take a picture.

Pepperoni Pizza
DisneyMay22-June22008052.jpg

DH and DS both got pepperoni pizza. DH got salad with his but I forgot to take a picture. To DS all pizza is good so it was hard to get a real answer out of him. DH thought the pizza was good, seemed like it had some spices on it to give it some flavor instead of just bland WDW pizza.

Overall Comments - I thought overall the food was good and I would eat there again. This was DH's first encounter with a salad this trip, and he was very disappointed about no Honey Mustard dressing. He made do with Fat Free Italian but it is still bothersome. I know it has to do with trans fats but really, is Ranch or 1000 island really any better for you?

Electric Umbrella

Grilled Chicken Sandwich
DisneyMay22-June22008072-1.jpg

OK took this picture without the bun on top so you could see the chicken better. I didn't care for this sandwich at all. The chicken itself was bland and way too small for the bun. The fries were good and hot though.

Bacon Double Cheeseburger
DisneyMay22-June22008070-1.jpg

DH ordered this. He said it was a good juicy burger and tasted fresh.

Double Cheeseburger
DisneyMay22-June22008073-1.jpg

DS said it was good. It looks good.

Overall Comments - I didn't care for my chicken sandwich but overall the food was good. Epcot was very busy this day so Electric Umbrella was very busy. We had a hard time finding a table and had to wait awhile in line.

Ohana

The Sauces
DisneyMay22-June22008074.jpg

The sauce in the front is basically just olive oil and garlic, they had a fancy name for it but that's what it was. The back left was the peanut sauce, I've tried it several times but never cared for it. I tried it again this trip and really liked it. It had a nice sweet peanutty (gee is that a word:confused3 ) taste. The back right is a sweet and sour sauce, it sort of reminded me of a cross between a sweet and sour sauce and duck sauce, I liked it.

Noodles
DisneyMay22-June22008079.jpg

I thought the noodles were a little bland. DS loved them but I thought they just didn't have much of a taste.

Mixed Veggies
DisneyMay22-June22008078.jpg

As you can see it's mostly brocoli. I like this dish. The brocoli may be a little too done for some people, but I like my brocoli a little overcooked so it was perfect.

Salad
DisneyMay22-June22008075.jpg

Greatly enjoyed the salad. It was all I could do to not fill up on it. I love the Honey Lime Dressing.

Pork Dumplings
DisneyMay22-June22008076.jpg

These were really good. Had a nice flavor and weren't soggy or too crispy.

Chicken Wings
DisneyMay22-June22008077.jpg

Good and messy!!

Here is the first time I failed this trip to get pictures, though there are several more to come. All the meat was good. Steak was cooked medium-medium well, not too done or too rare. The turkey wasn't dry. I thought the shrimp was good but it had some spice on that made it a little warm so it was too hot for DS.

Bread Pudding
DisneyMay22-June22008080.jpg

OK I didn't get the picture until we had started on it. It was really good but way, way too small for 3 people. I guess we could've asked for another one but we didn't bother. DH sacrificed hisself and let me and DS eat almsot all of it. The dessert was very good, I love the sauce that goes on it.

Overall Comments - Thought the food was great and service was better than the last couple of times I had been there. I noticed other people got bread and we didn't and the pork skewers didn't come around until after we were done. Overall we had a great experience.

Thanks for all the kind words :hug: . I've got to work tomorrow so I'm calling it a night. I'll try to get a few more tomorrow and I should be able to finish them up Friday.

Some of the places I will be reviewing: Wolfgang Puck Express Marketplace, Whispering Canyon Dinner and Breakfast, Roaring Forks, Cosmic Ray's. It seems like we ate at the same places over and over. We ate at WPE Marketplace three times. Everytime we were at DTD we got hungry, Earl of Sandwich didn't appeal to us so we at at WPE 3 times. We ate WCC breakfast twice just because we were staying at the resort and it was easy. I also have another review of Electric Umbrella, we ate there out of desperation late one EMH night.

Also, if anyone is interested, I will be doing a few reviews for Universal on the US/IOA board after I get my WDW reviews done.
 
The large pictures are great! I'm looking forward to reading the rest of your reviews. :thumbsup2
 
Thanks for the reviews and the nicely detailed pictures! :goodvibes

I'm interested to see what you had at Wolfgang Puck Express, its a favorite of ours, but we haven't eaten there since the menu change and are looking for ideas, so if you ate there 3 times, I can't wait to read all about it! ::yes::
 
Great pics, thanks for sharing. Looking forward to seeing more.

Pop Century Food Court

Parmesan Crusted Chicken Penne Alfredo
DisneyMay22-June22008214.jpg

This was the most surprising meal of the trip. I was shocked at how good this was. The chicken was tender, juicy, and had a crisp crust. Seems to me in most chicken parmesan there isn't much parmesan flavor, but this had a quite a bit of parmesan flavor. The pasta and sauce were also very good. The alfredo sauce had a parmsan flavor also, it was tangier than a typical alfredo sauce. The breadstick was good, had a mild garlic flavor without being too garlicy.

Parmesan Crusted Chicken w/Mixed Greens
DisneyMay22-June22008215.jpg

DH ordered this. It was the same chicken as the Chicken Penne Alfredo so see above for how good the chicken was. The mixed greens were good, it had an italian/vinagrette dressing already on it. DH got some more Italian dressing but I'm not sure if he had to use it or not.

DS ordered a double cheeseburger but I didn't take a picture. He said it was good. It looked juicy and not dried out.

Overall Comments - As I said before I was really surprised at how good these chicken parmesan dishes were. I like the variety of the Pop food court, I think it is one of the best on property. I was very upset though about the Twinkie Tiramisu, I'd been looking forward to having one.
