    Kona Cafe Switches up Dinner Menu

    I was there late last week. The steaks don’t really come with sides. And the duck ramen i had was the only bad meal i had on the trip. The stock tasted like generic vegetable stock paste with a little Chinese spice & the noodles weren’t anything you really wanted to eat. It may improve. I...

    Do any of you have any reason to think this might open this month?

    Complete Rundown of Victoria and Albert's

    I took a date to the chefs table a couple years ago. As an executive chef myself & someone that seeks out adventures in dining around the world, I’d call V&A’s one of my top 10 experiences. It’s expensive but honestly, in a bigger food scene (NY, Chicago, Seattle) you’d pay more. The service is...

    Is this in Strasburg, PA? Would you mind filling in the ignorant (me) on what exactly the history of this specific train is?

    This is the best merch I have found to date for Epcot. What is your favorite gift from the parks?

    These are two of my Disney World treasures. Both from Magic Kingdom. The Josh Agle piece is over 3’ square, signed & numbered and the Fulton piece is a signed & numbered giclee of 95 pieces. I also have a couple collectible mugs from Trader Sams.

    Raglan Road for Dinner with kids?

    I may be the only one to ever have had a poor time at Raglan Road. The service was embarrassing & the food was mediocre at best. Having said that, with the constant barrage of kudos it receives, I'd be willing to give it another go. Probably a bad night. Have fun!

    What’s Wrong With Disney World Restaurants...

    I have been a fine dining chef & private country club chef my entire career. I'd say that most would label me as an extremely adventurous eater with a taste for global fare. There are inevitably minor hiccups while eating every meal & snack out over the course of a week or two. Having said that...

    All-You-Care-To-Enjoy Milk Shake at The Plaza

    Ice cream at the food industry level is super cheap. It can be as cheap as 3 gallons for $15 or so, if you buy enough. I don't have an answer as to the availability of the AYCtE Shake at the Plaza, but it's not as expensive on their end as it seems.

    Dining Plan 2018 Drinks

    I started that evening at Trader Sam's and then headed over to Kona, where I was surprised to be able to get the Lapu Lapu. To this day, I can't recall what I had for dinner.

    What is Disney's 2nd most iconic song?

    When I read your post, I immediately thought of "Feed the Birds". I dunno if it makes sense, but I'll go with it.

    Status of the flu in DW

    Actually, the name comes from Maleficent's raven, Diablo. @LAKid53 , it's very much a "duh" moment looking back. It had just never occurred to me you could OD on the stuff, let alone be so uncomfortable for so long after. I never said I was smart.

    Status of the flu in DW

    According to the packaging, I was under the maximum dose. I took 3 chewables at night and again in the morning for 3 1/2 days. They ended up turning my stomach into something of an acid bath. Everything I ate or drank just bubbled immediately (and painfully) into gas and bits. I was up for 3...

    HAUNTED TIKI MUG

    Sorry to dig a cold, dead thread from it's cybergrave, but does anyone happen to have a description of the actual cocktail that was served in the mug besides "a fruity drink with rum"? Thank you

    Status of the flu in DW

    For me, I ended up with a stomach so acidic that anything I ate or drank exploded in gas. It was awful.

    Status of the flu in DW

    I learned on my last trip (2 weeks ago) that it's possible to overdose on Emergen-C. Don't do that.
