Great reviews so far!! I have always wanted to try RR, I have heard amazing things about th bread pudding.
Great Minds think alike!Love your reviews, its so funny I just updated my DR with the same info about Raglan. SERIOUSLY how was that braised beef SOO good. I can't wait to go back to Raglan. Looking forward to reading your reviews
I would go back just for dessert!Great reviews so far!! I have always wanted to try RR, I have heard amazing things about th bread pudding.
These cupcakes are no joke! We would have never gotten them if it weren't on the dining plan. But it was great to try so many new things!RR is one one of my all time favorite places to dine! I cannot say enough great things about the tons of meals we have had there. Holy cupcake I just gained a pound looking at those from Starring Rolls. I have never had one from there, as when I am at Disney I am normally so full I get turned off by them, but what I would not give for a taste of one of those Olaf cupcakes right now after my lunch
Ours were great. A lot of people don't care for them , but they certainly got an A+ in my book!I love the cupcakes at Starring Rolls. They are so amazing!
I cant wait to go back to RR either! I could plan a whole trip around that bread pudding!Loving your report so far. Can't wait to do Raglan again, I missed out on the bread and butter pudding the first time. I know better now!
My Husband and I went this past Saturday, 9/20.
We split everything we tried, so if I say it was a small portion, keep in mind-it was for two people. Here is what we had:
Mexico: we skipped the booth and went straight to La Cava del Tequila, if you are looking for a margarita, do yourself a favor and go here.
Germany:
Roast Bratwurst in a Pretzel Roll ($5.00, DDP Snack Credit)
It was a long, skinny sausage on a short, fat pretzel roll- with a dollop of mustard. it was good, but not great.
Belgium:
Potato and Leek Waffle with Braised Beef ($4.25, DDP Snack Credit)
SOO GOOD and a huge portion compared to some of the other items we got. This is a MUST GET!
Belgian Waffle with Warm Chocolate Ganache and Whipped Cream ($3.50, DDP Snack credit) Another large portion, but nothing special.
Poland:
Kielbasa and potato pierogi with caramelized onions and sour cream ($5.25, DDP Snack Credit) Lots of great flavors. The kielbasa was great. The dish came with three small pierogies. They were so small though, that all I could taste was the dough. It would have been better if it was just one larger pierogi.
Ireland:
Lobster and seafood fisherman’s pie ($6.25 DDP Snack Credit). Nice size portion. Ours had ALOT of lobster in it - we were very surprised. Not our favorite of the day, but still very good.
Canada:
Canadian Cheddar Cheese Soup ($4.25, OOP) This was so delicious! Unfortunately, for $4.25, we found the portion size to be insultingly tiny.
Moosehead Lager ($3.50) not much to say...it was cheap lager.
Greece:
Griddled Greek cheese with pistachios and honey ($3.75, OOP) This was delicious for a few bites. It was just was too rich, for even two of us to finish.
Chicken gyro with tzatziki Sauce ($4.25, OOP) Large portion, I didn't think it was anything special, but it was my DH's favorite thing he ate.
Tzatziki martini featuring Crop Organic Cucumber Vodka and BOLS Natural Yoghurt Liqueur ($7.75) Curiosity got the best of me here. I knew once a read about it a month back, I HAD to try it. Big mistake.... Im not even sure there was alcohol in this drink. It tasted like someone had just added a lot of water to a container of greek yogurt and blended it. I tasted no cucumber what-so-ever. And to make it worse, they topped it off with a sprig of dill ( i hate dill and it was the only flavor i could taste)
Australia:
Pavlova with Fresh Berries and Vanilla Creme ($3.50, OOP)
if you are expecting real pavlova, you might be disappointed. When they handed it to me, I was sure it was the wrong thing. Regardless, it was still yummy. The "Vanilla Creme" was just instant pudding. It was nice to end our tour around the world with something on the light side though.
I would have loved to tasted more dishes, but we were just too full and it was too hot/humid out.
Loving your review!! I absolutely had planned on a Starring Rolls cupcake this trip and it didn't happen. And I was even IN starring rolls. At the time I was fine with it, but now I'm sad
Can't wait to read more!
Thanks! I hope this will help you out on your trip!Your reviews look great! You are ordering a lot of things I want to try.
We are hoping for a FP+ for December. We had dinner at BOG last Sept and it wasn't very good, food nor service The salad looks delicious as do the cupcakes! Fingers Crossed
Thank you! Welcome!Everything sounds fabulous!! Definitely following!!
Thank you!Loving your reviews. Following along
Really enjoying your dining review, and the photos. We will be on the dining plan for the first time ever on our next trip. Normally DH and I are the "eat quick service whenever we're hungry" type people, just want to grab a bite to eat, get it over with, and get on with our day at whichever park we're in.
But. This trip we've been invited to go along with our DD and her family and her DH's parents and they are all on the dining plan and DD has made several table service reservations for all of us, so when the January promotions came out I called and we ended up adding the dining plan to our package for just $355 (8 nights) so knowing we had all those reservations (Be Our Guest dinner, Coral Reef, 50's Prime Time, Akershush, Crystal Palace, etc.) it was a no-brainer to add it.
Sunshine Seasons is always a favorite of ours for quick service, and I know DH is going to want one of those HUGE cinnamon rolls at Gaston's too!
Looking forward to the rest of your review!
