Personally have found the Indian dishes in the Royal main dining rooms to be consistently good.

I noticed this week theaters are playing some *new* titles once or twice a day with the show times all beginning before 5 PM. So now if you have a 9-5 and you can’t get there on the weekend, you’re just committed to waiting til streaming. Of course the theater also may not have fully-functioning...

What Diagon Alley hath wrought

Seriously, a couple indoor walk-through attractions would probably do wonders.

Pretty amazing that Disney could’ve possibly had the inside track on their own cool youngish horror auteur with Cregger since Barbarian was a Fox production (or release? not sure which). They didn’t release that film on disc, either, although he begged them to so it doesn’t seem like they saw...

Google reviews rating’s down to 3.9 TripAdvisor rating is 2.1 But they did get a positive writeup in the NYT for what it’s worth. Surely they’ll fast track something for next summer, although not sure what they can quickly add to help with the afternoon issues.
