Trip Report Tu in ‘25

Ever just the same
Ever a surprise
Ever as before
Ever just as sure
As the sun will rise
Tu in ‘25

These lyrics came to mind when I thought about my trip reporting. (I also thought, Here we go AGAIN but the above sounds much more poignant.) It’s now that time of year when my Disney trips are frequent. And this Disney Senior loves sharing her visits with y’all because your engagement makes it fun!

Yes, there will be stuff that’s the same. Yes, there will be surprises (too soon for the reveals). And yes, there will be sun rises!

Spring break countdown is at 4 days.

Since this intro needs a picture, here are Tu.

Would our meal live up to the hype?

I began to take pictures once we were seated.

A server (not ours) had been watching me. The moment I set my phone down in the table he came over and said, “May I?” He picked up my phone and took at least two dozen pictures of Woody and me. We were all laughing and later wondered if he used to work at 50s Prime Time, as his antics were not typical of a “fine dining” server!

The server who took care of us (from our generation) was just as friendly but more professional in her demeanor (my notes said, “top notch”.) She offered suggestions after inquiring about our tastes and checked on us frequently (often discreetly), keeping our glasses filled. We weren’t rushed and the pacing of our meal never left us wondering if she had disappeared.

The bread service was delicious and despite the wisdom of not filling up on bread we ate it all anyway!

This long-married couple ordered the same entrée. Woody had also seen the pictures and read @littleroo ‘s praises of the char-crusted steak and thin-layered au gratin potatoes.

Y’all this NY strip put my former Mama Melrose favorite to shame! Perfectly cooked and juicy, bursting with flavor. Loved the potatoes and green beans too.

Flying Fish exceeded our expectations and was the perfect choice for our last meal of vacation.

So glad you enjoyed Flying Fish. I love it there, my favourite Disney restaurant. And that bread is amazing

What a great pic of you Tu! (two)

How do you always end up with green beans? Is that a preference?

Your review matches those of many who don’t order the fish from my formerly favorite place to order the fish. I’m glad you enjoyed it! Maybe they should call it The Flying Strip!
