I may just cry!!! Its over. Very sad but what an excellent review!
I think I have convinced DBF to add Jiko to the ADR's (we will be dropping Aloha show). He did say that he would give me this one as I dont have many picks when it comes to the ADRs so far. Now I just have to convince him on Chef's.
Again, excellent review!
I see you Pre-TR is up! Gotta check it out!
Nice! I'm so glad you convinced him! Haha, my DH picked out all of our restaurants too...the breakfast ones are all MY choices and as you can see, I only got to choose 2!
Out of the what 15 or so!!! lol! Next time, it's my turn! And perhaps for you too!
OK, now if you convince them to go to NYC, I will tell you all the best places for sweets. To start you off, there is a chocolate place called Jacques Torres. I have only been to the one in Brooklyn but there is also a location in Manhattan. Amazing candy, amazing cookies, and the hot chocolate is so amazing there, that my DH, who is a hot chocolate snob, says it is the best he's ever had...it literally tastes like a melted chocolate bar!!! The one in Brooklyn is near this restaurant called Bubby's that serves breakfast and also typical diner food, and they specialize in pies! Their peanut butter pie is to die for! My sister and I went there for lunch over spring break and we're gonna take our parents there for their anniversary this summer! It's also kid-friendly which we need!
Let me know if you are definitely going to NYC because I will tell you all the best places to go to and believe me, they are not expensive (well, not for NYC anyway!). Just don't eat Mexican food here because you are used to the real thing girl!!!
I think I speak for everyone here when I say that you should definitely stick around!!
I'm DEFINITELY going to hit you up for suggestions if we make it out there! I can imagine drinking a melted chocolate bar....droooool...
Yeah, NY appears to be a foodies heaven right? I mean you got everything there! Pretty jealous I must say! But we do have the Mexican food down so that's something right? Oh and we may be tied for Sushi...
not sure though...
Just thought I'd tell you...I went to a Box and Bag class this morning, like a kickboxing class....
....I....DIED!!! Whenever I work out HARD, i'm usually sore the next day...nope, my triceps are burning, my thighs are on FIRE, and all about 3 hours later! Can't IMAGINE how i'm going to feel tomorrow...
Oh man, love The Wave! We tried there for our first time in March and loved it.
You actually took a pic of our table! 
Wasn't it so neat in there?! It was crazy to think that used to be the food court/arcade area!
Haha! How funny!! I loved walking through the Wave like tunnel...that bar area is so neat too! Wished we could have used it though! Even the waiting area with the neat blue room and the tables was awesome!
Wow, that was really a food court area?! Crazy! So was there a restaurant before The Wave, or did they immediately tear down the court/arcade area and go straight to making it The Wave?
Just caught up since Jiko...So sad
that this is coming to an end!
Two of my favorites together in one dish: mac & cheese and filet! It looks scrumptuous! And I love how every family develops their own Disney traditions. You end with Jiko...we start with O'Hana's.
And I'm so glad you enjoyed the Wave! Next time try it for breakfast... the BEST omelet I've had at WDW! A very nice surprise! And it sort of stays under the radar so it's never too crowded..
Can't wait to hear the bottom line!
Dr.! Good to see you again!
Aww, O'hana's! Which do you prefer from there? Breakfast or Dinner? I was telling my DH yesterday that the reviews about this place are always positive, just not sure on when to go!
Ooh, I LOVE omelets! I usually make my own at home...egg white and spinach omelets...I know too freakin healthy and not fun AT ALL, but whenever we do go out to have breakfast, I usually load up on all that fun stuff...what's it called, ah yes, FAT! Ham, extra cheese, ya I'll take about a tablespoon of tomatoes, but give me EXTRA cheese to make up for that!
Awwww... I don't want it to end. Quick book another trip - 2012 is too far away!
Seriously though, great job with the review. I look forward to your wrap up - 'cause I'm picturing it kinda like the blooper reel at the end of a movie during the credits!
I literally think I'm not gonna make it to 2012!!!
<--- me waiting for 2012...might as well add some tv here, it's gonna be a while!
Haha! Thanks for the kind words!
Yes, l've been to
Disneyland Paris 5 times, it was the first Disney Park l visited, l live in Scotland, so it's my closest Disney park. I love going there, l always stay at one of the onsite Disney hotels (there's 6 of them - l've stayed at 4 so far, only 2 more to go). You can walk from the hotels to the park (although there are buses too), furthest hotel is about 15/20 mins walk, the others are closer. We have a personalised paving stone in Fantasia Gardens at the park so it's lovely to see it each time we go.
Disneyland Paris is a lot smaller than WDW (we spend about 4/5 days there rather than 2 weeks like you would with WDW) - there is just the two parks -Magic Kingdom & Disney Studios (like Hollywood Studios) and also Disney Village (more shops, restaurants, cinema, Buffalo Bills Wild West show). It's a lovely park - many people say the Castle & Fantasyland in Magic Kingdom has a more European fairytale feel, it's so beautiful.
(there's lots of pictures on the internet of it). Some of the rides are pretty much the same, others a bit different - eg POTC is longer at the Paris park.
If you ever get the chance to go to Europe/France l'd definately recommend a visit.
Sorry for taking your thread off topic.
Love your Disney handbag.
The food in your last review (Wave) looks amazing, yum! I've really enjoyed reading your reviews - thanks for posting all the information and taking all the photos as well (l've discovered virtual dining
). You'd make a great food writer/critic in a newspaper, you've got a great writing style, your reviews are much more fun & interesting than many l've read in newspapers/magazines. Fancy a change of career?
Wow! Six hotels!!! Didn't know it was that big! I've seen the castle on pictures, and it's gorgeous! I was hoping they would add some European flare, considering the location! I hate looking at pictures sometimes, because I want the first time to be unexpected and exciting....however, seeing as I'll probably never make it out that way until i'm 35, I'm just gonna have to take some peeks!
Have you ever been out here to the original Disneyland? Ride POTC here, and then tell me if it's longer than DP! When we first went on POTC at WDW, we were ready to be seated for a LONG time...right when we got comfortable, it was over!
It's so funny watching people get out of the boats here at DL because they look like they had just gotten done watching a Mickey Rourke film, confused and uninterested..
Ah, I would love to write reviews about food! I'm afraid I'm just too nice though! But when it comes to Hotels, let me at 'em!
Lesha,
your review was the first one that I read when I started checking out DIS. I decided to join bc I thought your food review was great! I am planning a trip to WDW Oct. 31-Nov. 5 and because of your review we have so much to look forward to.
Great review! So sad it is over!
I'm so glad you joined the DIS! I've got some FANTASTIC information from all these fine folks, and I'm sure you will as well!
So are you going to be on the Dining Plan and which one?
How exciting, you'll be there on Halloween! Are you going to Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party??
Great review of The Wave!!!!!! Love the atmosphere and decor, beautiful! Those crab cakes look yummmmm!!!
Thanks Allegra! The ambiance of The Wave is so comforting and refreshing...ah, and that Crab Cake, was too good!
Amazing reviews..I really enjoy your writing style and pics too!
Thank you so much! I'm glad you liked my reviews!
Great reviews. I love reading the DxDDP reviews just to see if people love it as mucha s we did. We will never travel w/out it. Great Job I can't wait to go now!
Omgosh....SO MUCH FOOD! Before we went, I was looking at some DxDDP reviews and thinking it doesn't LOOK like much food....what a fool I made of myself for even conjuring that up in my head! In my Dining TR, you don't see any of the 32 snacks that we got....add that to 17 meals we ate in 9 days and thats a WHOLE lotta grubbin!
Not sure if that's a good thing, or a bad thing to some people! 
I never wouldhave thought all this information was right there in front of me, wish I had found out sooner!!
. I LOVE your D & B purse 
. I am getting that same style next month ( in 16 days woohoo 
) when we go. Thanks for sharing your trip with your DIS friends 
.
Oh well..as long as I get to go, right!?
Too kind! Ooo yay for your soon-to-be purse and your trip!!! Wow 16 days....I think I got somewhere around 740 days!!!!
