short and sweet!

Just wanted to give a quick review of the restaurants we ate at on our recent trip. Our party consists of me (the mom), hubby, Aiden (daughter age 12), Avery (daughter age 10). We used the TIW card.

Cape May Cafe (dinner).
Always a repeat for us, and always enjoyed by all
Le Cellier-another repeat (lunch)
Hubby and I both had the mushroom filet, delicious!! Avery had a steak which she polished off in no time, and Aiden had kids pasta. We also had the cheddar cheese soup (love it), and creme brulee and chocolate mousse for dessert (both very good).
Teppan Edo (dinner)
Our family favourite. I had filet, Avery had shrimp, Doug and Aiden had steak and chicken. This is our MUST DO.
Via Napoli (lunch)
This was our first time and it is now added to or list of repeats. Doug had candele pasta, girls and I shared 4 cheese pizza and pepperoni pizza. It was excellent. We also shared the dessert, I forget what it is called, was similar donut holes (but much better) with whipped cream and chocolate. Sinfully good!
Crystal Palace (breakfast)
This was Aiden's choice and we had eaten here before. It was just ok, we'll probably take a break from it.

Kona (breakfast)
This was our first time here, and it won't be the last. Loved the pressed pot coffee and pineapple macadamia nut pancakes. Doug and Aiden both ordered the Big Kahuna and shared with Avery. Plenty of food for all!
'Ohana (dinner)
We have eaten here before, and still enjoy it, but it is no longer a must do. We all agree that we enjoy all of the meal EXCEPT for the meat, so for that price it isn't really worth it for us.
Yak&Yeti (dinner)
Another enjoyable meal. Doug and I both had the steak and shrimp, Avery had wonton soup, and Aiden had chicken lo mein. Aiden didn't care for hers much and wished she had ordered the mahi mahi instead (which she loves). We also ordered egg rolls and pot stickers. The egg rolls are the best ever!
We all shared the wonton dessert, which is just ok IMO.
Tusker House (breakfast)
We have done this one before. It was good, but again I think we'll take a break from it.

50's Prime Time (lunch)
Decided on a whim to see if they had a table, and they did. We ate here on our first trip, but hadn't been since. Avery and I shared the pot roast (melt in your mouth goodness), Aiden had the kids meatloaf, which she liked, and Doug polished off the fried chicken (I managed to steal one bite). This time around the kids were old enough to appreciate the humour, and we had a great waiter (JL). This is a great option for lunch for us because none of the CS at HS really appeal to us.
ESPN (dinner)
Had never been here before, but we were staying at BWV so it was a convenient walk up. Aiden and I shared the nachos which were not good, but Doug enjoyed his burger. Avery chose to stay in the room. I wouldn't go out of my way to eat here, but it was good enough for a last minute decision.
Big River Grille(dinner)
The girls decided to get nachos and mozzarella sticks from Boardwalk Joe's and go back to the room, so Doug and I got to have a dinner alone. Doug got the meatloaf and I had the nut crusted chicken. Both were good, another good choice for a last minute place, but wouldn't put it on my must do list.

We didn't eat many counter service meals, but the ones we did eat were all good, nothing spectacular. Our favourites are still Wolfgang Puck Express and Cookes of Dublin.

Snacks for us included Mickey ice cream bar, Mickey ice cream sandwich, candy from Goofy's, ice cream at Seashore weets, ice cream at Ghiradelli, LOTS of popcorn, treats from Karamelle Kuche, and kaki gori.

If you want more details or have any question, please feel free to ask!

Teppan Edo (dinner)
Our family favourite. I had filet, Avery had shrimp, Doug and Aiden had steak and chicken. This is our MUST DO.
>>> I always get the filet too. So yummy! Love that place.

Via Napoli (lunch)
This was our first time and it is now added to or list of repeats. Doug had candele pasta, girls and I shared 4 cheese pizza and pepperoni pizza. It was excellent. We also shared the dessert, I forget what it is called, was similar donut holes (but much better) with whipped cream and chocolate. Sinfully good!
>>> I ate at Via last week and also had pepperoni & 4 cheese pizza with my son. Both are heavenly! I also ordered the ricotta fritters and we both thought they were to die for. SOOO GOOD.

Crystal Palace (breakfast)
This was Aiden's choice and we had eaten here before. It was just ok, we'll probably take a break from it.
>>>I thought it was pretty good breakfast place. But it wont be a must-do for us in the future.

Kona (breakfast)
This was our first time here, and it won't be the last. Loved the pressed pot coffee and pineapple macadamia nut pancakes. Doug and Aiden both ordered the Big Kahuna and shared with Avery. Plenty of food for all!
>>>one of my fave breakfasts! Love Kona!

Ohana (dinner)
We have eaten here before, and still enjoy it, but it is no longer a must do. We all agree that we enjoy all of the meal EXCEPT for the meat, so for that price it isn't really worth it for us.
>>>we thought ohana was just ok. I agree about the meat, it wasnt the greatest. I think this place is way over hyped.

Tusker House (breakfast)
We have done this one before. It was good, but again I think we'll take a break from it.
>>>> LOOOOVE tusker breakfast! Its so much better than lunch.
