Rainforest dinner suggestions

[connie254]

We are going to the RFC in DTD for dinner next week. Can someone suggest a good menu item for teenage boys, wiped out parents? We'll be enjoying a beer at PI later that night, so no alcohol at the meal. Also no desserts, since we will be sweetened out by the DDP. The kids are non-adventurous when it comes to food, but will eat nonstop. We are somewhat adventurous.

I love their pastalaya. It is a spicy pasta with shrimp, sausage, and chicken. It is one of my favorite restaurant items anywhere! I often drag my poor husband to the Rainforest Cafe here in Michigan just so I can get it. I think it is a great dish, and it would be very expensive to make at home by the time you purchase all of the meat that goes with it. I can't say enough about it really, but if you are not a fan of spicy food you will probably not like it.

Good Luck!

Maybe it's just me, but I LOVE their quesadillas!!! They make them on a fluffier pita and they are SO GOOD!! I highly recommend them. I also love the Volcano (dessert) if only for the fact that it comes out with a sparkler and the wait staff yells "VOLCANO!" Sadly, the only time I ever ordered one (in Niagra Falls) there was no pomp and circumstance for ours. Tear!!

my absolute favorite there is the china island chicken salad, yummy! for the boys, there is what i think is called 'rasta pasta' which is just pasta with sauce and cheese.

For two boys, I would try the BBQ Chicken pizza...it has a fun rainforest name, fogot what it is, but DH gets it almost all the time and it's a good standard if you don't know what you want to eat.

Also, the nacho appetizer is good for 2-3 people as a meal...it never disappoints.

It's called, Brave New World. I agree, it's really good.

My favorites are:

Bamba's Barbecue Wrap - Shredded beef or chicken wrap with Smokin' Mojo BBQ sauce, fresh cilantro, onions and four-cheese blend. Served with sweet mango sauce and cole slaw

and

Rasta Pasta - Grilled chicken, penne pasta, walnut pesto, broccoli, red peppers and spinach, tossed with garlic Alfredo sauce.


I so wish we had on near us!

Dh and I get the same thing everytime we go there.

Brave New World- Charbroiled hand-pulled chicken breast and our Smokin' Mojo BBQ Sauce topped with our four cheese blend and chopped cilantro.

And I always get the Rasta Pasta- described just above this post.

YUMMY!

I always get the Bamba's Barbecue Wrap, and my husband always gets the Mojo Bones. He says that they are the best ribs anywhere. My son always gets the dino shaped chicken nuggets. Now that he is 13 1/2, I don't know if he can still order from the kid's menu, but I hope they'll let him get them!

Thanks. My stepson is picky-won't eat broccolli, green beans, onions, and something else. My son hit puberty with a ravenous stomach-he'll eat anything that's doesn't move. BBQ chicken pizza for him. Stepson is the one that will drive us nuts.

How big is the BBQ pizza?

I can't remember for sure how large it is. From what I remember it looks like two people could share it, especially if you also had an appetizer. DH can sometimes eat the entire thing but usually not.

-Thats probably no help at all, sorry.
