We spent most of the day at Animal Kingdom with Mike and Donna.
The four of us headed to the Grand Floridian for dinner at Narcooses. We went a bit early to have drinks at the bar before dinner. They didn’t have a non-alcoholic cocktail menu but they made Donna and I virgin Mango Mojito’s. These were just as good as the ones I’ve previously had made with alcohol. I love how they use the limes to make it look like Mickey ears. Scott and Mike both had martini’s.

We were seated a bit before our reservation time.
Their bread is good, but makes a lot of crumbs.

For appetizers each couple shared an order of the Crispy Rhode Island Calamari: Peppadew Banana pepper olive relish, tomato coulis. Just one picture since they looked the same. I avoided the olives since I don’t like olives. But the calamari was very good, nice and crispy.

For our entrees, Donna wanted soup and salad. She ordered Maine Lobster Bisque: Butter poached lobster, coral, chervil. And Caesar Salad: Crisp romaine leaves, traditional Caesar dressing, grated house cured yolks, fried capers. She said it was very good and just what she was craving.

Scott and Michael both ordered the same thing (so I’m only sharing one picture). Pan-seared Georges bank day boat scallops: Parisian style gnocchi, peas, ham, truffled Meyer lemon cream. They both enjoyed it. Scott and I have had this before and know it’s really good.

I was originally thinking of the Mahi Mahi dish but the waiter recommended pretty much everything else but that so I went with the Sweet Potato Gnocchi: Poma Rosa Tomato Ragu. This was very good today and I enjoyed it.

For dessert, Scott and I shared the Almond crusted cheesecake with lambert cherry sauce. This is such a great dessert; we both really liked it.

Mike and Donna shared the Lemon Bar: lemon shortbread cookies filled with lemon mousse, topped with lemon curd, fresh raspberries, and white chocolate. They really enjoyed it and said it was a lighter dessert.

We all enjoyed Narcoose’s. After dinner we hopped over to Magic Kingdom.
