So...recap....we just left Contemporary for our 7pm ADR at Ohana's. I always go to Ohana's for the first sit down meal of the trip. I love the atmosphere of the Polynesian and to me it feels very 70's, but in a very nostalgic and comforting way!
Since we arrived a good 20 minutes early we checked out the gift shop and the waterfall. The resort has such a unique smell and feel that I can just sit in the lobby and people watch for hours!
We checked in about 10 minutes to 7 and asked for a window seat....the CM said we may have to wait, told her no problem....we got time. They gave us one of the pagers and we grabbed a seat in the Tambu lounge. Unfortunately the live entertainment hadn't started so we chatted and tried to decide if we should order a drink. 2 minutes later our pager went off and we were taken to our seat....
Our server was Cousin Drew, and he was on! What a great guy, he got us right into the drinks. We ordered a Lapu Lapu and a Malibu Monkey(i think) The lapu lapu came in the pineapple and a side glass! The bartender "accidentally" made too much! I swear our server was trying to get us drunk!
Usually I find the Lapu Lapu a bit strong but tonight it was perfect! Sweet but with a nice kick. The Malibu was spot on as well. Sher excused herself to go to the bathroom so I put the watch I had bought for her on her placemat.
She got back and was quite impressed with her minnie and mickey watch! She made some promises and other arrangements that I have to leave out of this trip report...sorry!
The meal came and it was absolutely perfect. Everything was hot where it was supposed to be and cool when called for.
Salad - Honey Lime Dressing....ummm yumm? Yikes this stuff was good. When I walked by to hit the bathroom I saw them preparing the salads....the were dumping ladels full of the dressing on each bowl! No wonder it was sooooooo good.....
I love shrimp. Sher only eats them cold and with cocktail sauce so she abstained. *Sidenote here* Every year I accidentally stuff myself with shrimp and then spend the next 4 hours doubled over in agonizing pain. This year I promised to take it easy.
The scalloped Maui Potatoes. Holy crap. Best Potatoes EVER!
We were getting thirsty again.
Ordered a beer for myself and Sher had another LAPU!
Then we ate some more. Chicken Wings!!!!! YUMMMMMMMMM
We were both stuffed and the meat skewers hadn't made a showing yet! What do we do? We begged Cousin Drew to give us a minute to digest which he gladly did! He was working until 10pm so he told us to take our time. We chatted with him about the place and he told us a great story about a group of CM's that he joined for a night of drinks at Ohana's followed by a late night excursion at the Magic Kingdom. He said it was fun for the first hour but due to the dry nature of the MK soon the buzzes wore off and the headaches sunk in....
Sher was too full for skewers so I dug down and found some hidden reserve and got some steak. It was really good. Just cooked perfectly for me. Had a really nice wood grill taste to it.
Cousin Drew was getting close to the end of his shift so we got the desert and bill. Since we did not do the dining plan we paid and I think it was $110.00.
Thanks for the meal, little wood guy! Notice the groovy hat I bought! Love that hat.
Hey Sher, How did you like the meal???
Up Next - Magic Kingdom - Open until midnight!!!! We are both a bit tipsy so decide that roller coasters and flume rides are in our future!
Now that I've actually seen one, I'll for sure be disposing of a snack credit for it. 
. Love the photos. Glad you and GF had a wonderful trip.
