The Magic, the Memories and the Food! February11 Update July 23 WPuck's Express

That burger looks good; I wouldn't eat the other because I don't do peppers. We've only eaten at POFQ's food court once and, for the life of me, I can't remember what we had.

The burger looks delicious. I wonder how your dinner will be?

 

[YukiPhnx]

What? How is it possible that I've read all your updates and not left a single comment????

Love your updates as always! Especially love the airplane food part. The ravioli and vanilla pudding look SO GOOD. I haven't had airplane food in 6 years....and believe it or not, I actually really like the stuff.

But it may have something to do with my obsession with compartmentalizing everything...

Wow, that creole burger looks hard to eat, but also looks VERY YUMMY. Mmmm, I don't think I've ever had popcorn shrimp before. Is this one of their new designer burgers?

 

[TigerKat]

Have to say I've never seen a burger like that here at home! Where did they think that up, lol?

Not long for us now, woohoo!!!!!

 

[Stefy]

Can't wait to try that creole burger, it looks and sounds very tasty

My oldest daughter became addicted to cheesesteaks after our stay at POFQ! I don't think we had bun issues - but I do know that she asked for it without peppers

Now I am off to catch up on your other updates.

We really loved the Cheesesteak at The Plaza, but the one at POFQ was really different.

Hope to NOT let you wait for an update for so long again!

Glad I found you, always love your reports

Welcome! I am truly happy to have you here, even if it took me so long to welcome you - it's been a pretty busy time!

I try to avoid sandwiches on THOSE rolls !! The worst I had were at ABC Commisary at DHS!!! I find to often the healthy choices are awful !!! I wouldn't touch a veggie burger or a turkey one !! I like my unhealthy foodThe shrimp on the burger looked GOOD!!!

I bet you Rosie, the buns are not healtier than the white ones! They just look different!
But I can tell you that healthy food can taste very nice - just come here and we'll take you some places with healthy food you will like!
Oh, and the shrimp on the burger WERE good!

Thank you for the welcome. Last year we never even made it to Downtown Disney - but we were only at WDW for 6 days. This year it will be 7 days so I think we will go. If we get the flight I want for our return trip - we leave Orlando at 6 Pm so I think that is a great day to go to downtown after we check out of our resort and have lunch at WPE and a treat at Ghiradelli. Buffets are good for us because there is usually something that everyone likes. With kids it is hard when they order something and then find it is not to their liking. At least with the buffets we know they will eat!

6 days is not very long. I don't blame you for not going to DTD - but if you can make it this time I would really recommend WPE and Ghirardelli!
I know, it is different if you have kids or even travel with "pickier" adults, then buffets seem to be the way to go.
Since it is just Tom and me, we are happy to be waited on!

Karin - I am back on the boards to drool over Disney food and no trip to the board is complete without one of your reviews.

Right now, I am craving, rolls with cheese and Italian ham, chocolate bars, WPE pizza (which I know you didn't show yet but I feel sure it is coming, right?), WPE creme brulee and a ghiridelli sundae!

LOL- you'd never guess that I just had lunch. Unfortunately, it was just a salad!

If you are still craving rolls with cheese and Italian ham, hop over to my pre-trip report - I am doing a trip report of our short trip to Italy last weekend.

Karin...Just found your dining review report and I'm lovin' reading it! I'm always looking for new restaurants/food to try and your pictures are awesome!

Seems like you are a must read here and I'm going to have to go back and read some of your other reports.

I'm looking forward to reading more!

I am so happy you found my dining review and that you like it!
More coming up soon!

Kathy, you would LOVE the burger - it was really yummy! I prefer the Cheesesteak from The Plaza too! That one didn't appeal to either of us.

The burger looks delicious. I wonder how your dinner will be?

We loved the burger - yes, and the dinner ........ hm, well, hm .......... you're gonna have to wait, but wait .......... you know, we spent the evening with you!

I was beginning to worry that you would not get back to this trip report before your August trip! Looking forward to more of your dining adventures and have added some new ice cream plans to our August trip.

Good to see you back Karin !!!I posted on your Italy weekend thread!!!

I missed you here, Yuki! It's nice you are here now!

The Creole burger IS one of their new designer burgers. We ate it with knife and fork, so it was not too hard too eat. But it was VERY good!

Have to say I've never seen a burger like that here at home! Where did they think that up, lol?

Not long for us now, woohoo!!!!!

Good to know HOW authentic the Creole burger is! It's Disney's take on it - now you know why we steer away from German and French food at WDW!

Are you back from your trip yet? Hope you are doing a report!

Can't wait to try that creole burger, it looks and sounds very tasty

It was very good!

Sorry, I have just been very busy at school and then we both got our new cars ......... and ......... and ............ and ........
But I definitely want to finish off my dining review very soon!
Good for you for adding some ice-cream. When will you be there in August?

Good to see you back Karin !!!I posted on your Italy weekend thread!!!

Thank's Rosie! I did see your post on my pre-trip report. Sometimes I have trouble keeping up with ALL of my own threads!

Day 2, February 20

Tasty Treats

Our room was not ready at 3.30pm, so we left for Port Canaveral, to wave goodbye to the Disney Dream.

When we returned we learned, we finally had a room and it was just a few doors away from Tina's room!

Now we were finally able to check into the gift bag we had received from MickeyNicki!

It was full of tasty treats!

Mickey Pretzels!!

Mickey Coffee!

Coconut patties! Yum, yum, love these! And some character cookies. I ate Goofy!

And a HUGE container of three different kinds of popcorn. We took this one home and enjoyed it while watching a movie in front of our TV! I loved them all!

Thank you again, Nicki and Todd!

But we discovered something else in our room!

Coming up: Another treat from the Disney Florist

 

[KatMark]

Love the goodies from Nicki and Todd -- they are so sweet. They are leaving Disney today to head to a meeting for Todd and then home. We've talked off and on and they've had some "interesting" meals...some that have caused me to change several of our plans.

They are heading home already??????? I was under the impression they were going to stay until Friday!

Can't wait for her reviews, I wonder if it will cause ME to change a few ressies too!

Thanks for still reading, Kathy!

No, they got there last Thursday and Todd has a meeting in Sarasota tomorrow and then they drive home to Naples.

Believe me, she is changing some of her October ressies!

Now you really got me wondering, but with Todd, you can never tell where they ended up!
Can't wait to read all about it!

 

[YukiPhnx]

Woow! What great treats to get!

What kind of flavours did the popcorn come in?

Mmm, Mickey pretzels. I love pretzels.

Have you tried the Mickey coffee yet? I was wondering if I should pick up some on my next trip...

 

[Disneyfreak616]

What a nice surprise!

MICKEY PRETZELS?!?! Ooohh, those would be lovely to dip in Nutella.

 

[tortoni]

Congrats on your new cars! We will be there from 7/31 to 8/11. We will just miss you, but will leave some ice cream at Ghiradelli, don't worry.

 

[lizzyb]

Yay! You're back!

 

[englishrose47]

The Treats looked delish!!!
