So apparently my girl Melissa of Disney on Wheels improved upon Chip & Co’s list and vegetarianized it.  Here we go (Had it, never had it, need to try): End total:  34.5, giving me Disney Foodie in Training Getting better. You probably have kids or family that are meat eaters and are stuck visiting the [...]

Chip & Co’s 100 Disney foods challenge

April 13th, 2012 · 1 Comment

Thought we could use some fun this Friday the 13th, so I am yoinking Chip and Co’s 100 Disney Foods list. I ranked with 28 which Chip thinks means 26 – 50 – Disney Foodie in Training – Getting better. You probably have kids and are stuck visiting the Buffets every visit. You drool over Disney Food Photos and have a mental checklist of things you want to try. Nope, just a vegetarian adult. :) :

WDW Not Just or Kids Review: Whispering Canyon Cafe

August 29th, 2011 · No Comments

As you know, on my last trip I ate at Whispering Canyon Cafe.  As I am a vegetarian, I was unsure what options would be available.  The sauteed quinoa cakes from lunch are on the dinner menu.  I love quinoa and edamame, but I was not a fan of this dish.  My fries were good, [...]

WDW Not Just for Kids Review: Fresh-a-peel

May 16th, 2011 · 1 Comment

In December (man, I might want to actually re-start my trip report, huh), I had planned on checking out Fresh-a-Peel, the “healthy option” section of Pollo Campero in Downtown Disney.  These restaurants are located in the old McDonald’s area, and I was impressed by how un-McDonaldsy the place looked.  I was very excited to see [...]

Basic WDW info: Is the Disney Dining Plan Worth it?

March 5th, 2011 · 10 Comments

Is the Disney Dining Plan worth it? What if you’re a vegetarian? I started my lifestyle of adult trips in 2005, and was intrigued by the Disney Dining Plan (DDP). I really liked the concept of already paying for my meals ahead of time. However, I ended up using an AAA room discount, and as [...]

Jiko…

January 30th, 2011 · No Comments

So, despite my screwing up the ADR, I was able to try Jiko last month.  This was my first signature dining experience, and it did feel more upscale than say, Boma.  Getting a vegetarian menu (always the easiest way to win me over) was painless.  As I predicted,  I opted out of the entree and [...]

New ADR system…post-mortem

December 25th, 2010 · No Comments

So, what did I think of the new online ADR systems once I ate? To be honest, I’m pretty much meh. Remember how I checked “other” to indicate I was a vegetarian?  That was apparently the wrong thing to do.  As soon as the cast member seating me saw it, she immediately stated “Oh, you [...]

Jiko!

December 4th, 2010 · No Comments

Sorry for the lack of updates lately.  Life has been kicking me in the booty, BUT this time next week I’ll be in Disney World, so there.  :)  Anyway, I managed to amass a bit of overtime at work this past week, so I, of course, decided to blow it in Walt Disney World.  I [...]
