Whoa!!! Calamari yes,but mountain oysters? Am I right in saying these are known as Rocky Mountain Oysters ??.
You would be correct.
I actually prefer my squid/octopus stir fried in a garlic sauce. There is a Chinese place here in Kansas where I live that does an excellent dish with it that way. Acquired taste for sure given the texture. But the older I get, the more texture is as important to flavor for me.
Then I take my hat off to you sir.That beats my Greek sea urchin eggs I ate fresh from the sea bed on a fishing trip of Santorini.

A very happy birthday to Mrs. Hatter We're celebrating DH's today as well (w/a cake fit for a Puma), but his is actually tomorrow. As for the question, I can't think of anything I've had at WDW that is so mind blowingly different from anything I've had before...but I think this is more likely to be the case if you're an adventurous eater, have lived a lot of places, and/or traveled a bit too. I swear, sometimes some of the most WOW things I've had at WDW are just new takes on old standards...like some of the fun cupcake flavors, kicked up mac & cheese, etc.

Happy Birthday Mrs.! Another restaurant added to my must do list: Bongos!
Rose& crown had an appetizer tray w/ different "tastes" of England. One was an egg w/ sausage in it I think? It was actually good, and so was all of the other delightful little morsels. Of course, it all had names, but I can't remember.

Was it a Scotch Egg that you had?

Now I remember! Scotch Egg, Potato & Leek soup too! Good show!
We also had the "sticky" pudding for dessert. It was good. Our waiter's name was "Guvna", and he was outstanding! Not to mention ladies- awfully cute!

Happy Birthday, Mrs. Hatter!!!
Hatter, I have to say that the menu you listed sounded like home to me and not anything unusual...some great 'southern' recipes and flavors. As for adventurous or unusual tastings at WDW, I would have to say Akerhus before it became a princess buffet. We took the DS and DD to it when they were young. We wanted to experience a new cuisine, something they wouldn't normally eat. The 'cold' lunch with a variety of fish and salads was not to our liking...I like my salmon cooked, not smoked...it seemed to raw too all of us.

Not Morocco! Chicago area. I meant the things that they serve in the Morocco Pavilion.

It's not an unusual food, but Bongos was the first time I had Cuban food...YUM!

No, I should have been more clear.
No problem..I didn't think you were Morocco bound.

In June, I will be! (OK, I mean the pavilion, again. I think DD and I would like to have some henna painting done).
