Oh, it doesn't really matter. I already know where the best burger place in the world is.

Me to. That would be straight off the grill that's in my backyard.

Careful. I just might make you prove that some day.

Well at least I know it won't be tonight. At least from what you posted in my TR.

Anytime you're in the neighborhood, I'll be glad to prove it to you.

In n Out is the best burger place in the world.

Ill definitely give it the best burger joint you can drive thru.

Well, I'm excited about going to In-N-Out again.

I rebooked my car today and saved a whopping $5. I figure that will cover a burger and fries. I tried to book a Fantasmic Dessert Package today but got told I'm 2 days too early so I will try it again this weekend.

I left a message at Napa Rose yesterday to try to book the Chef's Counter but no call back so I will try again tomorrow.

I've booked a dinner at Blue Bayou.

Darn work interfered with the rest of my planning today!

Alison, I hope you and Fran and the kitties have an ark for all the rain!

I agree with Jenny, you must do Plaza Inn (unless you are planning on hitting Mrs. Knott's and then you're excused.) The lambuger at the Uva Bar is divine! I also love the cheese dog at the corn dog palace.

Noted. I did Mrs. Knott's last time and it was fabulous. Do you need reservations for Plaza Inn? My inner WDW trip planner is freaking out at the lack of need to pick meals 6 months ahead of time.

I've got a reservation for cafe Orleans, planning on a corn dog and flos this trip too! What do you love at carnation cafe?

I've actually not eaten there but I've heard they have an awesome breakfast!

Chef's Counter at Napa Rose is booked. I got a call back last night and booked the second seating. I've been reading reviews and I'm super excited!

YAY! I'm excited to read about the experience and see your pictures. Congrats. That's a great booking.

Chefs Counter? Looks amazing. We noted during our last trip that that would be the place to sit.

I'm splurging on the Tasting Menu. The reviews sound amazing!

Plaza Inn is a CS. They give you real plates. You pick up your food a various stations using a tray. You serve yourself drinks and get your silverware and napkins. Then you pay at the cashier and a greeter helps you find a table.

Good job on the chef's counter. Did you find the thread with the pics from all the people who dined there?

I am definitely going to check out Plaza Inn then. Sounds awesome for a CS.

No..I didn't find that thread. Let me see if I can google it.

Are you guys surviving the storm?

Here it is:

We're surviving, but we don't live in a burn area, nor adjacent to a drainage ditch. Our alley is all muddy and the parking area has a small lake about 4 inches deep. But that's about all for us. I haven't been to Casa Nueva since the rain started. I hope thats OK.

I hope Casa Nueva is okay too. Glad you're surviving the wet.

Thanks! I read through it and now I'm starving! Everything looks soooo good!

Ugh, hope the rain stops for you. I know just how you feel...we went through it last fall when Colorado had all the flooding.

Plaza Inn, Plaza Inn! The Tasting Menu looks so good Jill. Good for you.


Is it raining a lot Alison? It rained here for two days, looks like its going to start again. I'll rain over snow ANY day. ANY DAY!

For the past two days it was almost constant rain. Not sure how much Long Beach got. Houses on the peninsula were flooded this morning, but the foothills got like 7 inches of rain. That's more than he last two years combined and they got it in two days.

Holy smokes, people must be freaking out. That's a ton of rain for So Cal. Much needed though. Stay safe and dry.

Hi Jill in CO! (Leslie in WY here - just up the road from you in Cheyenne!)

I smile whenever I see your posts, as my husband is one of the most avid Star Wars fans ever - and a Disney fan through marriage - although we play the "Mickey Mouse!" "Donald Duck!" war all the time. LOL! (he is the cranky duck)

Loving your pre-trippie, as we are headed to Disneyland in mid-May for the first time in about 3 years, prior to the West Coast Wonder sailing from San Diego to Vancouver. We are also eating at the Chef's Counter at Napa Rose, and have plans to eat fried chicken at the Plaza Inn. I am very anxious to hear all about your adventures... so don't wait too long to give us your full trip report - I'll be waiting anxiously, and it will help the time pass more quickly.

Here's hoping you have an amazing trip!
