Are you going to the GF Tea? I am really thinking about that for our next trip.
Thanks for reading and enjoy your trip!
Love the new plans!
Can't wait for the reviews!!
And, we share the same bday! We'll be there Oct 15-20...can't you stay another day?? So sad to leave on your bday!
I wish we could stay another day but it's not to be; I'll make up for it next year! 
Later in the evening we have an 8PM reservation for dinner at Kona Cafe. We have never had anything but breakfast at Kona but so many of our DIS-friends swear by dinner here that we decided to take the plunge and try a new meal. If it stinks we'll blame you all, but I suspect a few lapu lapus will make us forget why we even chose it in the first place.
Might I suggest that you make sure to try the vanilla/pineapple twist. I think it's about 10X better than the pineapple on its own. Just my $0.02
Another unsolicited suggestion...stay away from the tuna oscar with fried green tomatoes. The spice mix on the tuna just seemed to cover up the flavor of the fish. BUT, the tempura crab WAS tasty.
Be sure to ask him why he blatently lied on his resume for me.
Another suggestion...if you get a chance, give the churros at the Mexico CS spot a try. I love 'em. I'm not 100% sure if it's just 'cause of fond memories of eating them with my family when I was a kid, but if you've got fried dough with cinnamon and sugar can you really go wrong?
All suggestions are welcomed and appreciated - thanks for taking the time to post them!
As for Dole Whip ... you're saying Jay should try a vanilla / pineapple swirl - is that the same thing as the float?
Point well taken on the tuna oscar ... I don't think it was on either of our radars but I'll tuck your warning into the back of my brain.
We've never had churros ... we can't get past that Simpsons episode where Homer sneaks into WDW and then has to pay $12 for a churro.
I think the teriyaki steak is another good option. But if that gawd-awful Ono whitefish is still on that menu, run, run away! Flee!
Just sayin'. 
(Oh, I realized that the F&W kiosk will have churros with chocolate sauce.)
I think one of you should get the pomegranate glazed pork chop at Kona. Just sayin'. Stay away from the macadamia nut butter served with the best pre-dinner bread offering, if that offends the "parasitic twin".
As for churros, there are carts around the parks that serve churros. I wouldn't go to the Mexico cantina for them. Just be careful if you get the one from Frontierland. Or at least keep close guard on it. I wouldn't want a flying rat (aka seagull) to rip it out of your hands.
Of late, I have noticed an interesting new trend on the restaurant boards ...
In the spirit of bandwagon jumpery and tongue-in-cheek fun pokery I would like to lay down the "rules" for this thread. Failure to abide by these rules will result in a visit from Jasper and his trusty paddle:
Da Rulz:
1) Taking these reviews too seriously ... that's a paddling.
2) Thinking that your opinion or comment isn't welcome here ... that's a paddling.
3) Not licking your monitor when a particularly tasty piece of food porn is posted ... that's a paddling.
4) Staring in slack-jawed amazement at my upper arm flab ... that's a paddling.
5) Paddling this food canoe without a healthy sense of humor ... oh, you'd better believe that's a paddling!

I LOVE IT!!!
Thank GOD I have a sense of humor or my butt would be blue!!!
I would like to respectfully ask that you have a drink for me at WDW. I am so so so far away from it, and I could use a beverage. In turn, next time I am at Disneyland Paris (probably while you're at WDW actually) I'll drink a 1664 for you.
That's why I like your food reviews. You are not afraid to criticize, but you keep it funny. I'm so glad you will be reviewing another food and wine festival.Well, I suppose that's one way to look at it. Honestly, I've been so amused lately by reviews stating that people who don't like certain foods shouldn't read, or people who have different opinions shouldn't post, blah blah blah, that I just thought it would be a hoot to poke some fun with one of our favorite Simpsons characters.
I enjoy the give and take of conversation and opinion on these threads and I welcome and encourage it as much as I can (and as much as the mods will let me before they get disgusted with the thread length).
So all are welcome ... I'm a first amendment kind of gal.
Briarmom! Where oh where have you been? I've not seen an update on your TR in something like three years ... I hope you haven't given it up because it was really good.
As for the drink ... anything in particular you'd like me to imbibe in a virtual toast to you or can I just use my own discretion? And the krohn ... yummo! You're too kind!
