Walt Disney World: It's Not Just for Kids

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, [...]

As you know, I am going to WDW with a good portion of my family (two brothers, two sister-in-laws, and two nephews.) I’ll give you formal introductions later, but one night I an taking my nephews, who are 15 and 12, to Whispering Canyon Cafe.  I chose Whispering Canyon Cafe because I fell in love [...]

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 [...]

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 [...]

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 [...]

I woke up from my nap, and decided to head off to resort hop.  I wanted to check out the Wilderness Lodge, so I hopped on the Magic Kingdom bus.  Now, once I got on the bus to the MK< I found something out?  If you know me, you know how I love POFQ.  Anyway, [...]

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 [...]

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 [...]

And I have to admit, it looks like a surprisingly awesome place for vegetarians and vegans.  I knew Fresh a peel was going to be vegetarian-friendly, but I did not know that there was going to be a BabyCakes bakery there as well.  BabyCakes is a bakery which will feature cupcakes which are gluten, egg, [...]

As you know, I’m a vegetarian; however, of of my all-time favorite Disney restaurants is LeCellier-their vegetarian option is always tasty, and I’m a fan of their Chocolate Moose.  If you spend any time in the Disney fan community, you may know that their cheddar cheese soup is very popular.  Tragically, this soup contains chicken [...]
