I visited Primo Piatto at Disney's Riviera Resort prior to the great closedown of 2020. The burger that I tried (the Riviera Burger) is no longer on the menu for lunch or dinner at Primo Piatto, but I suspect the new burger that is on the menu (although slightly simpler, from a gastronomic standpoint) is just as good, and on the same ...

I'm so glad I'm getting a chance to write this dinner review from a visit to the Crystal Palace that took place just before the parks closed due to the Covid-19 outbreak. I would imagine, character buffet dining... is going to be one of the more difficult experiences to host in the future, but I hope we can get back to it one day — ... ( read more ... )

I had a chance to spend a couple of days at Epcot recently and stopped in to check out the new Regal Eagle Smokehouse located in the American Adventure pavilion. It's a counter service restaurant that replaced the older "Liberty Inn" counter service location. I definitely want to get back there again and spend a little more time looking ... ( read more ... )

I had a chance to meet some friends for dinner at Paddlefish not too long ago, and so my perspective for this review, is just simply as a guest… and not a reviewer. The most obvious difference is, that I don't have 100s of photos of the various dining rooms at the paddleboat themed restaurant. I know there's an outdoor patio on the ... ( read more ... )

Sebastian's Bistro is one of the newer table service restaurants at Disney's Caribbean Beach Resort. It's a smaller location with seating for… maybe 120 guests… with a nice, fresh, modern Caribbean design aesthetic. Because it's located in the Caribbean Beach Resort, I guess the only option was to call it "Sebastian's ... ( read more ... )

I had not been to the Ale & Compass at Disney's Yacht & Beach Club since it was last renovated (it used to be called the "Captain's Grille"). So I decided to stop by and take a couple of updated photos for the directory, and sample some of lunch items. Pretty much everything has been refreshed in the location… slightly new ...

I finally had a chance to visit Wine Bar George the other day with some good friends, and try out a couple of the larger "family-style plates" that are on their menu. The words "estate-style wine bar" are still being used in the official description for Wine Bar George… but… in my mind, "estate" conjures up thoughts of and ... ( read more ... )

I'm sure the name "Whispering Canyon Café" was meant to be a little ironic. At peak dining times, the popular Wilderness Lodge restaurant is anything but quiet. Fueled by the antics of servers and cast members, guests are encouraged to have a family-friendly rowdy time. Show dining though … is not really my thing. Which is ... ( read more ... )

Artist Point had been a "signature" restaurant at Disney's Wilderness Lodge (meaning, "two dining credits") that featured culinary arts from the Pacific North West region of America (i.e. National Park "inspired" cuisine).  I have had good and bad experiences at the old Artist Point… the more recent of those, were good.

I had not been back to visit the Spice Road Table since the official menu changeover, from small plate tapas style dining — to the more common three-course (appetizer, main entree, dessert) format. I have good memories of the restaurant dating all the way back to the opening day menu. While not being particularly "authentic" ... ( read more ... )
