Me- almost 33 (dang it, next week!), huge disney fan, ex WDWCP'er
DH- 35, not a huge disney fan, but big fan of food!
DH and i took a 5 night/6 day trip at CBR with the free dining. in fact the free dining was the catch to get Dh to go to WDW for the first time in 11 years. That was our one and only WDW trip together. I've been many times since then, including just in December with my family/sisters. DH has passed on those trips in the past.
But this time, just the two of us and tons of food. We like to eat. We exercise a lot, so that is how we afford to eat a lot of what we want and stay healthy! I threw all my healthy eating out the window this trip- time to splurge and enjoy! plus, we were walking a ton, right?
So here are some reviews from our trip- we did 6 table service meals and used every single one of our dining credits. We were stuffed though!
Here's where we ate and I'll review each in this thread:
Chefs De France dinner
Sci Fi Dine In dinner
Crystal Palace breakfast
Le Cellier lunch
Ohana dinner
Liberty Tree Tavern dinner
Cosmic Ray's lunch
CBR beach breakfast
Flame Tree Barbeque
The Land food court (seasons?)
Earle of Sandwich lunch (twice)
Mexico counter service
UK Fish and Chips
DAY 1- FRIDAY, AUGUST 18TH EARLE OF SANDWICH
We got in the late afternoon and had plans to do dinner at Earle of Sandwich at DTD, one of my favorites. I have gone on about how good it is to DH. My family loves it too. In fact on my last business trip to Orlando (last april)- i went to DTD 3 separate nights to get a sandwich there for lunch or dinner! I've got it bad, i know!
We arrived at Earle at about 6pm or so. Not really large crowds at all, in fact, we only waited with a few people ahead of us. good timing! DTD was not crowded at all. I had my usual Le Frenchy (ham/cheese/dressing), but with turkey instead of ham. I got my usual tomato soup too- OOP ($1.25). I got a coke to drink and a brownie for dessert. DH got a sandwich with chicken, spinach and mushrooms, diet coke, potato salad (OOP) and a cookie for dessert. It cost us about $3 for the OOP stuff. Not bad, found a great AC spot inside and both enjoyed our meal. I did notice they started using dark meat turkey, which i don't like. They always used white meat before. I might have to change sandwiches in the future if they keep using dark meat- ugh! DH enjoyed his sandwich, really liked the bread. He was impressed and even asked if they had other locations in the US. I told him no, but that it is a franchise, (my family looked at the website to find out!)- so perhaps DH could open one? lol
So good meal at Earle as usual. We saved our desserts for later though, we were too stuffed and i only ate half of my sandwich as it was!
coming up- Day 2 and meals at CBR food court, Cosmic Ray's and Chefs De France
