The first set of Sweet 16 matches provided us with some hard fought battles and gave us another big upset as another #1 seed in Casey's Corner falls at the hands of Flame Tree Barbecue. This set of matches should be just as difficult and fun to watch as we round out the field for the Elite 8.

For this round, the first counter-service eatery to receive (25) votes or the place with the most votes after 48 hours has passed from the time of the start of each set will be the winner. You are voting for which place in each set of matches you like better taking into consideration overall quality, atmosphere, experience, etc. So, you are voting for four places (one in each set) and please feel free to comment or discuss why you voted that way as these threads are in the discussion forum. You may place your votes in the poll and/or write them out though I would prefer everyone vote by means of the poll. This set of matches is the second set out of two third round sets. You are voting for one counter-service place in each match (4 total). Obviously, if you have not been to all the places, then only vote for the places you have experienced if you like. The eight poll options are not all going against one another rather they are matched up as written below so you are not picking your favorite out of the eight, but rather your favorite from each match. The second set:

Hollywood Studios Region:

Beaches and Cream Soda Shop (Beach Club) vs. Columbia Harbour House (Magic Kingdom)
(Beaches and Cream has defeated Tomorrowland Terrace Noodle Station 26-7 and Boulangerie Patisserie 33-12 while Columbia Harbour House has defeated Roaring Fork 36-10 and Yakitori House 35-12).

Electric Umbrella (Epcot) vs. Pinocchio Village Haus (Magic Kingdom)
(Electric Umbrella has defeated Seashore Sweets 31-3 and Pizzafari 31-16 while Pinocchio Village Haus has defeated Sleepy Hollow 29-5 and Boardwalk Bakery by means of a tiebreaker).

Animal Kingdom Region:

Liberty Inn (Epcot) vs. Plaza Ice Cream Parlor (Magic Kingdom)
(Liberty Inn has defeated ABC Commissary 31-12 and Pepper Market 24-13 while Plaza Ice Cream Parlor has defeated Golden Oak Outpost 28-3 and Riverside Mill Food Court 25-13).

Sunshine Season Food Fair (Epcot) vs. Captain Cook's (Polynesian)
(Sunshine Season has defeated Contempo Cafe 39-6 and Wolfgang Puck Express 39-18 while Captain Cook's has defeated Sunshine Tree Terrace 23-20 and Pizza Planet 23-19).

This match will end 9:35pm EST on Saturday 12/11/2010.

Have fun!

I must say I am quite surprised that Beaches and Cream beat the Harbor House. I mean I love the Kitchen Sink too, but the harbor house is a marvel of restaurant design. The feeling of actually being in a ship is pretty overwhelming. Also odd to see umbrella beat village house. I've never heard anyone talk about the umbrella on here, but it does have that old-school epcot charm (and the absence of figaro fries probably helped). And hooray for the plaza ice cream shop and sunshine seasons, those places rule.
