Hi Susan! It's been a whirlwind since we got home so I'm just checking into the DIS and can't believe you're on your last day already!!!!!!!!! Hope you're well and settling back into school.
That watermelon salad looks oh so good! I kept racking my brain when we ate there trying to remember what you'd eaten that was so good and couldn't for the life of me remember. I then of course drowned my non-remembering sorrows in lots of naan ; )
I had no idea they served dessert in the market, just thought they had savory items. This looks oh so good and refreshing!By this point I was hot and feeling a bit peckish so I decided to wander over to Harambe Market and see what they had to offer. i decided to try the African milk tart which was a super yummy creamy coconut centre in a chocolate pastry shell, drizzled with dark chocolate. This was awesome!! Cold, creamy and not too sweet with lots of yummy coconut.
So jealous you had a warm and tender one (yes I'm still bitter ours was decidedly not)Soon this little beauty came out to the table....still warm from the oven and so soft and tender. It was pure cinnamon roll perfection!
Did you try the waffles with the nutella sauce on it. Oh so good. Glad you enjoyed your meal, especially since there is no chance you could get your boys there ; )I had to watch myself with these as I wanted to try the waffles as well. I really couldn't do justice to the waffles as I was getting so full. I ate about 2/3 of one, it was light and fluffy but sadly I just could not manage it all! There was at least enough food for two hungry people on my platter.
I think you hit the nail on the head with the pre-made mixes. We ended up at San Angel for lunch one day and were very disappointed in the margarita. It was nowhere near as good as it had been in the past. Think it may be forever off my list now.knew I was dying to try the avocado margarita which I had heard so much about. I did a bit of a double take when I got my bill but hoped it would be worth it. The verdict? I liked it but I didn't love it....it was very creamy and not too sweet. I didn't find it overly strong and I did notice the jugs of premixes behind the bar, so I'm not sure if they are making them exactly to order as they did in the past. Still, it was cold and refreshing and I enjoyed it as I strolled through World Showcase.
I hate that too. We learned our lesson at a restaurant a few years back when they offered sparkling water and it was some fancy french stuff that was like $15. Since then its tap, tap, and tap for me.orges asked me if I would prefer still or sparkling water. I chose sparkling thinking they did their own house sparkling, only to find out it was San Pelligrino at $9/bottle! I would have liked to have been informed when he presented the options. Oh well!
Yum, yum, yum!!!! I'm a sucker for all things tofu and truffle so this is right up my alley. Sadly I couldn't convince Jason to go for it on our visit. Think we ended up with some kind of flat bread that fell flat ; )After finishing my salad, it was time for Wishes! I went out to the observation platform and thoroughly enjoyed every minute of my favourite fireworks. It makes me cry every time...I am such a sap! When I came back to the table my tofu roll had been delivered. This was absolutely delicious! The roll was composed of avocado, jicama, quinoa, silken tofu, truffle emulsion and topped with crispy fingerlings. Yum, yum, yum! I chose a glass of Kim Crawford Sauvignon Blanc to enjoy with my sushi.
What a great afternoon. Looks like a fun and refined time! I've contemplated taking Casey one day just she and I but haven't bit the bullet yet. Think a kindergartner would like it?This was the perfect treat and a thoroughly enjoyable way to spend the afternoon. I would highly recommend it! The staff presented me with a beautiful rose on the way out in honour of my birthday celebration.
Love the look of this salad. Tried my hardest but couldn't get Jason to go for HBD this time. Think we still need a bit more distance between our debacle of a visit.I decided to go with two appetizers for my meal as I like to do. My waitress was so accommodating with this and paced the delivery really well. For my first appetizer I went with the signature Cobb salad. I asked for the dressing on the side and just tossed it myself. This was excellent. All the ingredients were very fresh and paired well together.
I can't believe that cause there is no chance we can even remotely say the same thing. #HurricaneHermineIt was another beautiful day (can you believe I had NO rain during my trip?)
It was so great to meet you too! Glad our meeting by the pooper finally worked out ; )After enjoying some time travelling through history and riding through Tomorrowland . I had a long awaited meet up with Disney diner extraordinaire Kari (@kastoney) and her beautiful family!
I'm a DIS meet slut, what can I say ; )Boy, Kari got around on her trip lol! As simple as danish is, Disney danish is the BEST danish
Can't wait to see where your best meal was!
So happy to hear you enjoyed these as much as we did We ended up eating her later in our trip and had another amazing meal. May have been our favorite lunch of the trip!After enjoying my salad, the Falafel was brought out. These were bursting with flavour and paired so well with the white bean dip and vegetable salad. My meal was very well paced and while I only wanted water to drink in the heat, Christina offered to bring a dish of lemons to flavour it.
