So, a few changes... mostly because I'm dense.
Among other things, the 2 tours I've scheduled were additions I failed to add before Microsoft cut me off. Jerks.
I've been to Jiko once and I LOVED it.
Haven't been there. Would like to give this one a try... by myself (see why, later on...)
Braai Broodjie - millet flatbread, apricot chutney, manchego and midnight moon cheese, charred red wine onions, and local heirloom tomatoes $13
Wow, that sounds good!
1. I think he was the chef?? Anyway he does that thing they do on Iron Chef where he comes out and explains whats about to come out for appetizer, entree and dessert.
I love that. Went to one place where they did that.
2. You need to go to this thing hungry. They brought out a lot of food. It was so you can taste everything. They brought out 1 of each thing per person. Im talking a steak, a chicken, a fish, a pig for the entree. Im talking 1 serving of each appetizer the brought out which was I think 3 or 4. They brought out a serving of each dessert (the only time I was happy that the portions were smaller but not particularly small).
Sounds like a ton of food!
Planning on going hungry. I'm no fool.
That sounds like good thinking.... we'll see though. All that food over several days adds up, even if you skip breakfast.
Not gonna lie, We'll probably be still bloated from the night before.
I heard that there is a Pantsless Prince I need to lay eyes on and that he hangs out at Beast's castle. I also heard that he's quite particular at who gets to see him- he kinda makes his appearance for only lucky guests who call for an appointment WAY ahead of time. And even then, maybe not.
I wonder if this will start to ease off. It's been around for a little while now.
French Onion Soup - Also available without cheese and crouton. $5.69
I really liked the French onion soup there. Hopefully you'll enjoy it too.
The kids will have to figure something out to do (I know it'll be terribly difficult at Disney World)
They're probably just
itching to do something on their own.
while we steal away to the Wilderness Lodge for a romantic dinner for 2.
Nice.
Half Roast Chicken - Geechie boy grits, collards, favas, okra, sweety drop peppers, jus $33
Ummm.... GEECHIE BOY GRITS??!!
That's what I thought!
Secondly, are there GIRL grits too? These are the things that keep me awake at night.
Okay, even before I read the next line, I
immediately thought "Foraged? Do the 7 dwarves do that when they're not mining??"
WHO forages these mushrooms? Is this a highly specialized Cast Member job?
see above.
Wanted: Forager needed to scour remote, wooded landscapes for the elusive oyster mushroom. Foraging experience required. Benfits package offered; apply online. Will check references.
sounds legit.
And I confess, we don't regularly press our own nasturtium oil. (We've eaten nasturtium many times, but...) Who knew you could use them for oil!
I've never heard of nasturtium. oily or dry.
I mean, seriously... doesn't everyone want to eat LARDO?! (Can you see my rolling on the floor dying from laughing so hard?)
Um....
That reminds me of when we lived in Churchill, MB (polar bear capitol of the world, don'tcha know.)
I think maybe I was going to make a pie or something, don't remember, but I needed some lard. I had
never purchased lard before so didn't know where to find it in the store. Now the Northern Store in Churchill is a combination grocery store, clothing store, hardware store. I thought lard would be kept near the butter in the dairy section. Couldn't find it. Finally I asked someone who worked there. "Do you have any lard?" He looked at me like I was nuts. "Do we have any lard? Follow me." He brought me to another area.... There were
buckets of lard. Big buckets. An entire shelf filled with varying sizes of lard. Maybe when you were a kid you heard how Eskimos eat whale blubber? Well, the Inuit (the proper name for Eskimo) do eat blubber. They also eat a lot of things raw, too. And they buy tons of lard and eat that too. Interesting diet.
The evening, as you know, is reserved for DISMeets galore! We have a growing list of peeps
You're taking the fun out of it.
and are probably a lot like you.
I highly doubt that.
(Read that any way you want.)
Go ahead and take one more stab at guessing where we'll be eating on our last morning. You can do it....
Okay.... Boma!
Darn!
It was a VERY last minute decision to add Boma for our Farewell to Disney.
But... but.... you said....
So confused.
As for food. There's enough here to make even the most mundane and un-imaginitive palate happy,
Uh, huh. Tell that to the rest of my family. We went to Boma. I tried a bunch of things. Some I liked, some I didn't.
What did the other three have? Nothing but mac 'n' cheese.
I hope I can live up to all the enthusiasm.
Of that, I have no doubt.
More than twice as big as both my boys.
Not.
I was the only one in the place. I didn't hear anything except for the microwaving that was going on in the kitchen. And lots of it.
Microwaved bacon or warmed up in the mike. Same with the chili I'm guessing.
Tasted like crap.
Now, you can say NO without guilt.
I have until next year to recover. It's all good.
I don't know. Let me know if you find out.
Well, today's my third day off in a row. And I only worked all three of them!
(Yes. At work right now.)
It was a dark bar. Obviously, he couldn't see worth a crap.
I was in a professional get-up. No grease, thanks. You know my nickname's Pigpen, right?
I do now!
Noooo, it's not like you're NOT doing stuff; it's just DIFFERENT stuff. I mean, just not always rushing to the next ride just for the sake of riding it. But finding those little hidden gems everyone else just cruises on by. The theming and visual puns thrown all over the parks. Admiring the authentic mosaics laid tile by tile in the castle and over at The Land; there's art EVERYWHERE; watching the Flag Lowering Ceremony... stuff like that.
I'd love to go to WDW and not ride a single thing.
I think I could do that in Epcot (but would like to try the new Soarin' when it comes out.) And maybe, possibly AK (but... but... EE!) But I doubt I could do that in DHS (RNRC & TOT) and definitely couldn't in MK (HM, BTMRR, PP)
But after those few rides? Yeah, I would love to just sashay about and take it all in.
The soup is merely a delivery vehicle for cheese and crouton!
As in.....you must be THIS tall to get in............. 
for being so close to your pinning ceremony and being DONE!!!
