ESPN -
we ate here on our first night. We arrived at the BWI about 10:30pm and got to ESPN at 11:15pm.
We sat at the bar- had a steak sandwich and a turkey wrap.
Both portions are a good size, very good taste and the fries were cooked perfectly. This was our first time here and we found it a good place for a snack or a sandwich meal.

Spoodles Breakfast
We have eaten at Spoodles before but this was our first for breakfast.
DH had the Mediterranean Breakfast Platter which is their alternative to a buffet. It's an all you can eat platter. The platter is so huge though that I can't see anyone eating more then one and even finishing one is tough. Everything on it was cooked well and was very tasty.
Cost $10.99 per person
I had the Smoked Salmon Plate
Lox, bagel and the works. Cost $8.99
I like lox and this was cut exactly like I like it. Very thin.
We both had coffe and I love the mugs they have there. They are huge.
We also had breakfast here on a different day.
DH had the Italian egg platter - which is poached eggs, potatoes on bread
I had the vegetable rotollo that I had tasted on the platter from the previous day, we also shared a plate of fresh fruit.
The fruit was ok, the canteloupe, honeydew and grapes were very good. The strawberries and pineapple weren't ripe so didn't have any flavor.

Chefs de France - lunch
We had eaten here in August for dinner and enjoyed it so much we wanted to try it again for lunch.
DH had the cheese plate for appetizer along with a glass of wine and I had escargot
For our entree, I had the Ham and cheese sandwich, DH had the Quiche.
The food was amazing. Everything was wonderful. The quiche is the best we have ever had. It's light and fluffy not heavy like some quiches can be. I loved my ham and cheese sandwich. The bread is toasted and the cheese was melted.
This is a place we will definitely return to again.

I will tell you about my food and DH's
I had the asian dumplings and Frank had the mussels. I loved the dumplings and DH said the mussels were very good.
The tuna was very well prepared and had a nice flavor to it. I really enjoyed it and I would order this again.
DH said that the lamb didn't have much flavor and he said it was just ok.
I had the tiramisu for dessert and I have to say this is the best tiramisu I have ever had.
The service I would rate as ok. She was there, everything came out on time and was hot but nothing extra was put into the service at all. We also had to look for her when we did need something extra.
The company more then made up for it though. We also had a great table.

Wolfgang Puck Cafe - downtown disney
Just a bit of background. DH and I have eaten at the original Spago in California and I have eaten at a couple of the Cafe's in California. This was Frank's first time at the Cafe.
For anyone who is interested. Wolfgang will be at the Cafe on November 4th from 4-6pm doing a free book signing. He will also be hosting a wine dinner that night in the upstairs area of the restaurant from 7-10pm. Cost is $100 per person. Reservations are a must.
I have to give this 5 stars from everything from food to atmosphere and the best waitress.
We ordered 3 things and shared it all
East/West appetizer sampler
Spicy tuna roll sushi
Wolf-fredo Chichen pizza
We were originally going to just have sushi but since we had never had it there we decided on the safe side and just try it.
Well the sushi is very high quality and I wouldn't hesitate to sit at the sushi bar here and only have that.
The appetizer was wonderful and plenty for more then 2 people. The crab cake in this dish was so good. It was all crab and not half filler like most places, vegetable spring rolls didn't disappoint and were served with a plum sauce. The tomato bruschetta came with pita type bread which was yummy as was the tomato.
The pizza was delicious and it came with baby spinach, mozzarella cheese, sautted mushrooms and parmesan cream sauce. Very nicely done without any of the flavors being overpowering on it's own or over any of the other ingredients
Our waitress was Judi and she was the best waitress we have had in a long time. She was on top of everything and kept an eye on all of her tables without being obtrusive. We never had to wait or ask for anything. Our tip definitely reflected her wonderful service.
This is going to be a must on any future trips to WDW.
