Rosie's Rivetting Reviews Feb 8th thru 15th

[englishrose47]

Supper tonite was at the BOMA! Now I had read all the reviews and knew the only way to try this was ALONE. Well Iarrived early and was given a beeper . I head outside to look around but the Beeper went off so I hurry back and am seated immediately . My waitress was very nice and explained all the stations she reccommended the Seafood Gumbo for soup I tried it and it was delish lots of seafood and alittle Zing. They didn't have all those cool soups I read about but the bacon potato looked very good! Next I haed over to the hummus which I love anyway and they had 3 sorts all of which were very tasty along with the cracker typr bread. I tried a couple of cold salad and they were OK except the watermelon salad ,that was awful but it had shrimp in it which was good. Itried the couscous and did not like it Have to admit I have tried it before and didn't like it. Many of the hot dishes I didn't care for but the Falafel(sp.) they are little meatballs were delicious. The potatoes with Afritude were also great, of course the prime rib which they offer cooked in different doneness. I picked RARE .. Yum so I got plenty to eat but all in all I wouldn't make it any every time meal butnot that horrid that I would say never again . The desserts were however awesome and I tried a Zebra Dome for the first time and am now hooked they are awesome,I sampled several other delish desserts including pineapple cheesecake . I loved them all . As said I had an excellent waitress who kept my cooffee cup full and was very friendly. She told me the neww DDp was hurting her tips and that many left without tipping I felt bad for her , but I think the buffetts will be the biggest sufferes tip wise !! and so ends yet another Disney Dining Day Stay tuned >>>>>

The food at Yak and Yeti sounds good Rosie, hopefully the service will improve.

Glad you liked Boma and loved the Zebra domes

Yes Jo I have never had a meal or experience at Disney restaurants that would make me say never again. I would do Boma again if only for the soup ,hummus and Zebra domes , but some places just become must dos and it isn't always just the food. I am busy pre pre planning next May's trip with family already and the restaurants I pick will be very different from going Solo!! Well I.m off to work for yet another gruelling day. Will cont report when I get home. DD still hasn't had time to help me !!

Day 5 My Epcot full day I had ressie for BIERGARTEN at 12:30pm I didn't have to wait long and was seated with 3 other couples 2 of which sat at one end and I sat with another couple Tina & hubby, at first he seemed at little reserved but Tina chatted away and soon he joined in. We all ordered drinks and the other couples joined in. Our waiter told us to go and enjoy and we did! I sampled the coldcuts which were very tasty and a few other cold salads. Then I hit the hot food, I tried the sausages which were delish and of course the warm potato salad YUMMY!! I sat down and enjoyed that and then went up for more stuff . The carved pork was so tender and tasty, my mourh is watering just thinking about it, I of course had sauerkraut which I do like, yes I kow an English kid and sauerkraut!! Then I tried a breaded or battered pork dish I think it may have been sauerbraten, Boy I thought the carved pork was good this was even better I had to have seconds and if it wasn't for the lure of dessrt...... Now I am not a big choc. dessert fan BUT the black forest cake was so good I had to have seconds. As I was eating dessert the German band came out and they were great!! I loved the way they encouraged the kids to dance and bring their parents with them. This is a definate will do again!! I give it an A+ allthe way around. This is a great place to dine Solo I would say the best of all!! Stay tuned for Le Cellier .. Hey Jo You have to have pix of this cos I ate what you ate!!

Day 5 continued. I had 7pm ressiws at Le Cellier and had Jo's reccommendations in mind. While waiting to be seated one of the CMs entertained the kids (not mine I am Solo Remember) He had a coloring book that was blank then colored then not colored , he did other tricks too and the kids loved it. I was seated fairly soon and my waiter came right over and I ordered my usual coffee! On Jo's and others advice I tried the cheddar cheese soup and it was delish, I ordered the filet (rare0 and cheesy mashed potatoes. It was delish the steak was done perfectly (rare) and the potatoes YUMMY! Iwas getting very full but couldn't pas on dessert I had the creme brulee which I was glad was not maple and it was very good ,however I couldn't finish . The waiter was really good keeping my coffee filled and checking on me . He told me that the new ddp was getting better but it was awkward for the servers having to explain that tip was not included. I tipped over 20%. The whole time I was a generous tipper as I feel being solo he wouldn't make as much per table! I give LeCellier an A all the way around and it is definately on my to do list now. Jo how about pix of the filet!!

Today I went to MK in late morning and ate at my favorite counter service Cosmic Rays This time i ordered the double bacon cheeseburger and fries and had carrot cake for dessert and coffee for my drink . (Notice the pattern) They have an awesome toppings bar and I added fried onions ( not red onions like poor Jordan ) and mushrooms . The hamburger was huge !! I couln't finish it and brought the carrot cake home which was devoured by the family . Stay tuned for Mama Melroses!!
