One of these days I'm going to get back around to trying some seafood dishes at Columbia Harbor House! Today though, we're taking a look at the Broccoli Peppercorn Salad. Why? Because maybe everyone in your group doesn't want fast food seafood... all at the same time. Answering the question… so what else do they have at Columbia Harbor House?

Well, they have a Broccoli Peppercorn Salad, and you know what? It's not bad. It's easily on-par with any fast food style designer salad we've found outside the gates. Is it up there with the best "Soup & Sandwich" shop kind of salads? Not really. It's missing a couple more ingredients and more contrast, but it's a really good entree for a fast food fish place.

The parmesan cheese that tops the chicken (see photo) could have been more plentiful (and flavorful) and that could be said for the dressing as well (I do tend to go a bit overboard on the dressing though). The broccoli was great and the chicken itself was a decent piece of basic roasted chicken. The sunflower seeds (which mostly fall to the bottom of the bowl) surprisingly did not provide much crunch. They weren't "stale" per say, and while I hate to suggest upping the sodium levels on something like this, if you dry roast those little seeds in some salt and spices, they'd stay crunchier.

All in all, I'd totally get the Broccoli Peppercorn Salad again. It's one of the lower cost items on the menu, was a decent size, and you felt good about eating it… which is sometimes hard to do in the middle of a theme park.

Because I ate such a healthy main entree, I also wanted to try out the Seasonal Cobbler. Oddly, no one was particularly certain as to what season we were in… other than to say that there's usually some kind of fruit in there. I hate making fun of this little dessert because it was really, really good. I'd go so far as to say, if you're at Columbia Harbor House… get one.

I'm fairly certain mine was blubbery, and while it's blueberryness didn't really come forward in flavor... the sweet, warm cobbler was soft on the inside and crunchy on the outside, with just the right amount of a basic vanilla milk glaze oozing over the top. This cobbler… was better than the salad. Oh sure, you could make it fancier, but considering this is a fast food location, I was really surprised and pleased by the quality of the little cobbler.
