So after our lovely lunch with our fine, feathered friends, we headed back to our resort, CSR to freshen up, then took off to DHS for dinner at the Hollywood Brown Derby!
Yay! I always get super excited about new restaurants!....and Im still excited! (Chris Farley, SNL) Okay, anyways so our ADR is for 5:35 and we get there a little early, so DH checks us in, while I take some pics!
So we get seated about 5 mins later and were taken up to our table which is on the elevated level of the restaurant. Pretty cool view..
Okay these drinks are definitely picture worthy!
The glowing one was their drink of the day called a Hollywood Star or a Falling Star or Drunk Star(10.25)
something like that. All I remember was that it had vodka
sorry people, but all you really need to know is that it glows and it contains vodka! YIPPEE!
And the beer is DEFINITELY picture worthy because its a Yuengling! (6.00 @ 2 = 12.00) YUENGLING!....here it comes
SCRUMPTRALASCENT! Now, were from the West Coast and this is only sold on the East Coast, so this is a delicacy to us
a delicacy which must be consumed, over and over and over and over
which did happen on our magnificent trip!
Oh, heres me, showcasing my beverage!
Like my shirt!?? It's an Ewok!
Check out that guy in the blue back there
totally jealous of my glowing alcohol
hes thinking what will the waitress think of me if I ask for the glowing fruity drink? Welp my friend, youre just gonna have to sit back there and stare at its marvelousness(def. not a word right?)
Trying to take a pic of the big booths, but got another action shot of DH
here hes saying, Dont look now, but check out that guy in the blue back there
totally eyeing your drink dude!
Enough talky. Talky, talky, talky..no more talky. (Adam Sandler, Billy Madison). On to the food!
The Appetizers:
I ordered the famous Brown Derby Cobb Salad for one with finely chopped greens, turkey breast, egg, bacon, tomatoes, crumbled bleu cheese, avocado, chives, and cobb dressing ~ 8.00
I have a cobb salad for lunch about once a week so Im very familiar with cobb salads. You know how some salads are
every bite is different..its like this
bite..yum just tasted some avocado..2nd bite
yum just tasted some egg and bacon
3rd bite..lettuce only gosh DANGIT! Right? Pretty much every bite is very inconsistent
well not the Brown Derby Cobb! With every bite you take, every munch you make, youll be tasting it all! Everything is chopped down finely and evenly so that when you mix it all together it looks
like not really a salad at all
more like a regurgitated salad..you know the kind
after a long night of drinking
.nevermind. I LOVED IT!
DH had the Blue Jumbo Lump Crab Cake with potato crust, green cabbage slaw, Dijon mustard, and remoulade sauces ~ 12.00
Very interesting with the potato crust, but overall a great App! Sorry about the blurriness
that Drunk Star must be kicking in right about now
The Entrees:
Hijiki Crusted Ahi Tuna Cobb seared rare with mizuna, palm sugar cucumbers, pickled diakon, flavored soy and wasabi sauces ~ 32.00
DH and I, for once in our lifetime, ordered the same entrée!!!
This dish was ri-dic! (ri-dic = ridiculous = insanely good) And the portion was huge! We each got about 6 slices of the tuna! Omgosh
the sauces were insane! The wasabi sauce has no heat to it at all, which is really weird, so its very edible for those that dont like hot sauces, and the soy was really sweet to balance out the wasabi. A perfect 10 dish! And the presentation is beautiful! Look at all those colors!
The Desserts:
Grapefruit Cake light layers of yellow cake with fresh grapefruit cream cheese icing ~ 7.00
As you can tell I got too excited
so yup theres a bite taken out of it, sorry! I couldnt resist you guys! I told you I heart desserts!
I have heard many a good things about the cake on the DIS, which is why I went with it! And boy is it good! I was expecting tangy because of the grapefruit, but it was really nice and somewhat sweet
aww look at my poor Drunk Moon over there...so sad
Im letting the ice melt because its like a second drink! (Pam, The Office).
Banana White Chocolate Toffee Tower on cocoa almond cookie and bananas foster ~ 9.00
And no, a bite was not taken out of the almond cookie
its supposed to be like that.
DH will take anything with the White Chocolate in it! This is really good guys! Really! If I had to choose between the two, I would get both.
For those using the Deluxe Dining Plan, they take 2 credits per person because its a Signature restaurant, so its 4 credits total.
For those paying OOP, here was our total with 3 alcoholic beverages, 2 appetizers, 2 entrees, 2 desserts, and tax: $130.20
Final Thoughts (Jerry Springer) p.s
I dont watch him, promise!...I thought the Hollywood Brown Derby was terrific! The environment was relaxing ...especially after having to deal with all those Brazilian Tour groups walking around DHS
you know the ones with the flags and the cheering thinking they own the entire walkway.
A plus side to this restaurant is that they do offer the Fantasmic! Dining Package.
Thats a wrap people!
to the DIS!
