Thanks for the Fultons review, I don't see very many

By the way your photos are excellent

Thanks! Fultons is a nice place, just not sure it is worth 2 credits for us. It was yummy though!!

Thanks for the Fultons review. Great photos! The desserts look wonderful but the skillet cookie/ice cream one really speaks to me!

The lovely bracelet caught my eye too!

Thanks! The skillet was yummy!!! So good and they warmed the skillet too so the cookie was hot!

DD loves her Disney bracelet. Wore it everyday!!

Every time I see your signature photo, I think the blonde looks like the Jordan girl from Big Brother and the Amazing Race...

You had me at the White Elephant....

You certainly seem to be making the most of the dining plan, I think that's awesome! I think people who are dead set against it forget how much even simple things like snacks, drinks, and counter service add up.

Day two we headed to Hollywood studios. Up first was:

You can find the info here:

This was a counter service lunch for us. We arrived right before the lunch crowd hit. We had:

1/3 lb. Angus Onion Straw Cheeseburger - topped with cheddar, vine-ripened tomato, sliced pickle, lettuce and house spread, served with French fries or carrot sticks $9.79; without the fries/carrot sticks $8.79

Looks like this item may have been taken off the menu recently.

Turkey Club - . - $9.99

Chicken Breast Nuggets (8 pieces) - served with French fries or carrot sticks $8.19

This may have also been removed from the menu.

Dessert was in the above photo...a chocolate moose~$3.59

Lunch was good a typical counter service. The fries were slightly soggy but that was our biggest problem. Everything as great besides that. Very clean and nice atmosphere.

With drinks our total was $74.85

As I was scrolling, I had to stop and look at your bracelet...even though it's not the focal point, so a bit blurry. I love the colors. Those are my faves! I need more color on mine. The only murano glass one I have is the Mickey so it's blue.

I have to agree, it's gorgeous!! Where do you get them?

This is the company that makes the Disney charms. You can do a search for local stores near you that sell Chamilia. They are very much like Pandora. The store near my has some of the Disney charms, but last time I was in, they didn't have the one that the OP posted. There are also some available at disneyshopping.com and I think I've heard that they sell them at World of Disney in DTD.

Yes, that' right! The rest of the charms are actually from another store, we just chose Disney colors. I was very bothered that they offered a Blue and Pink Mickey but not red???? Really! Why pink and blue??? Is it for boy/girl? There is another Mickey head in silver but I thought this one made a statement, especially with the other beads.

Thank you both so much! BTW, I'm really enjoying your dining report and am looking forward to the next installment. I've also started reading your trip report, and am enjoying it very much as well!

Enjoying the food reviews and the talk about beads!

We have only dined at Backlot once and weren't impressed. They do seem to change the menu around a lot there though.

I have the blue one and I think I'm getting the pink one soon. And it's funny because I have a red crystal one (for my birthstone) and I'm getting the matching blue one soon (hubby's birthstone.)

So sorry for the delay. I've had a lot going on but hope to be back on track.
Next up is:

You can see the entire menu here:

http://www.wdwinfo.com/wdwinfo/dining/diningdetail.cfm?restaurant.id=92

Black Linguine with Florida Rock Shrimp - Garlic, tomatoes, asparagus - $24.95

Penne Bolognese - Slow cooked beef and pork meat sauce - $18.95

Gnocchi - Potato Dumplings with Nonna's Sunday perk ragu - $24.95

I don't remember what these two were but yummy!

And cappuccino e chocolate

Dinner was very good. The entire family would head there again. Clean, nice atmosphere and good food. We actually like it better than Fultons considering we only used one credit.

Dinner came to $157.40 for a daily total of $232.25 so far with no snack credits used

Just found your reviews, I like that you have places you don't see reviewed very often. And your pictures are great!

 

[gardengirl628]

Those desserts look amazing! I may have to switch a reservation!

 

[MrsB1228]

Wow, Portobello looks amazing! Hmm ... I thought I was finished switching around my ADR's ...

Thanks so much. We try to always fit in new restaurants and with some DTD places opening this past trip to the dining plan, we hit mostly all new locations to eat.

It was good but we were shocked it was not our favorite this trip...the best for us is yet to come!!
