We keep going back and forth about trying Victoria & Albert's. We have always wanted to try it because it's considered such a special thing to do in WDW, my DF used to be a server in restaurants similar to that caliber, & we love trying expensive wine, but I am a pretty picky eater.....
I'm not horrendous & there is alot of foods I do enjoy and if it's a meat or fish I'm familiar with, I'll typically try it, but there are alot of things that make me squeamish that I would definitely refuse to try. There are certain textures I just cannot handle. I don't want to waste our money and I definitely don't want to be a pain in the neck to the chefs or the server.
I would never eat cavier, olives (though olive oil is fine), octopus, veal, lamb, trout, shrimp, duck, "gamey" type meat. I love cheese, but not cheese that is stinky. I'll eat most other cow meats, non-stinky fish, chicken, turkey, crab, lobster, etc pasta, rice, raw tuna, and most vegetables. I'm usually fine trying most desserts. I've seen alot of these foods listed on V&A dining reviews that I've read on the Dis.
When you go to V&A's, do you get to select the appetizers, main course, etc yourself (at least a limited 3 different things to choose from for each course) or is it a set menu, no choices at all?
Thank you!
