Food bang for the buck

[Communicore]

Apart from the free salads, sauerkraut and cheese delights, etc. that I always talk about what do you think is the food item that gives you more bang for the buck? For me, I think it is the worms and dirt. A perfect combination of taste, price, and value. I hope they don't increase the price. Also, if one wants a true bang for the buck in the parks, how about purchasing a Cup O Noodles from Mitsukoshi? Even though "overpriced" at 99 cents, it is still cheap and can make for a satisfying meal on the cheap.

The historic best bang for the buck used to be, in my opinion, Figaro Fries.

The price was sub $5 and was a pile of fries, cheese sauce, lettuce, tomato, ranch dressing, and bacon bits.

Pure junk procesed food, and horrible from a health standpoint, but man were they tasty, and also filled you up.

Currently, I think the chicken at Cosmic Rays is a pretty good deal (at least for WDW prices)

I remember those, and I agree! It can be shared with 2 people and you can bring it to Pecos/Comsics to have a refill of cheese sauce, lettuce, and dressing!

I think the Earl of Sandwich offers good value. They have not moved the pricing in years, and it is a good sized sandwich for around $5.

The School Bread at Norway is another good value option. For its size and quality at under $3 its a good deal.

Earl of ssndwhich for QS
Via Napoli for a TS

I think Wolfgang Puck Express is a terrific value, on or off the dining plan. Portions are very large, especially the breakfast pizza or breakfast pocket.

Tangierine cafe and their platters. It is healthier, delicious, and enough for my wife and I.

 

[HollyAD]

EOS was already mentioned and is my favorite stop at DTD. I think Yorkshire fish and chips is also a good value in Epcot.

If on the dining plan, the combo meal at Flame Tree at AK was rather substantial

 

[melmel89]

The fairfax salad at fairfax fare its the most filling salad i have ever had and at $7.99 its pretty decent vaule

The giant Butterfinger cupcake at Starring Rolls- for their size, the price is not unreasonable.

I agree, Earl is IMO the best for this

I 100% agree. I think people overlook this place. The food is fresh and tasty. The portions are large enough to share. I especially love the breakfast pizza and the corn flake French toast.

Fish and Chips in UK is a great value and a must nearly everyday of my trip. However, I do not understand how people say that is sharable. 2 small pieces of fish and 5 french fries is anything but shareable.

Ohhhh the french toast .... YES!! Then, there's the bacon wrapped meatloaf w/mashed potatoes!! Also, they will also box up your food to go too!! (now I'm hungry!) LOL

Sigh..... Figaro Fries, how I miss thee!

I was so sad when they got rid of Figaro fries.

I double agree that Earl of Sandwich is a great value. We buy extra and eat them cold or heat them up in the food court the next day.

Carrot Cake from Writer's Stop at the Studio's. It is huge.

I was going to suggest wolfgang puck express too.

I just found out there is a wolfgang puck pizza bar near us in Charlotte. The prices are the same as DD. We are planning to try it out Sunday. I hope it's as good as the one at Disney.
