Way back when... this location used to be called the Spice Mill, and they offered this great Homemade Vegetable Chili in a Bread Bowl... and it was really good! Oh those were the days. (2016)

These are the "Carne Asada" Street Tacos – and when they hand then to you, it's pretty much just the meat in a soft taco shell. The "toppings bar" is where all the stuff on top comes from — and you can put whatever you want on top of them.

The taco-boat that the Street Tacos are served in does a nice job of holding the tacos open while you visit the toppings bar.

Here's one of the Carne Asada Street Tacos with some shredded cheese and salsa on top. All of the toppings are kept cool at a small, serve yourself / walk-up toppings bar.

At the time of this review the 3 Street Tacos with Rice and Refried Beans entree was $18.99 plus a 5% SeaWorld surcharge (which they pretty much add to everything).

Here's a photo of the Refried Beans side item from the Lakeside Grill Cantina. The beans are topped with Cotija Cheese. It's available as a side item and it's served with several of the main entrées.

This is the Spanish Rice side item from Lakeside Grill Cantina. It is available for purchase as a side – but it's also served with most of the entrée plates.

Here's the Three Street Tacos plate from Lakeside Grill Cantina. The entree is served with rice and refried beans, but those are both in little side cups.

SeaWorld's Chocoalte Cake isn't bad actually – it's not a "super" dark, rich, fudge kind of chocolate – but there is a little chocolate flavor in there.

The Lakeside Grill Cantina is probably called the Lakeside Grill Cantina – because it's on a lake – and this would be it's lake-side.

The cake portion of SeaWorld's Chocolate Cake has a big crumb (like cornbread) and is a moderately moist cake (so it does hold together somewhat). Most of the chocolate "flavor" comes from the icing.

My chocolate cake has a droopy nose. On the day we visited the Lakeside Grill Cantina – this Chocolate Cake was one of the dessert items. Many of the counter service restaurants have the same two or three dessert items on any given day (regardless of what the menu board might say is supposed to be available).

Here's some diced tomatoes and cheese on top of a Carne Asada Street Taco from SeaWorld's Lakeside Grill Cantina.

The Waffle Fries from Chick-fil-A in SeaWorld, Orlando.

Here's a closer look at those Chick-fil-A Chicken Nuggets. If you like them outside the park – these nuggets from inside the park are exactly the same!

The Polynesian and Chick-fil-A dipping sauces are just two of the options at Chick-fil-A.

Here's a look at the eight piece nuggets from Chick-fil-A at SeaWorld, Orlando. Grilled nuggets are also available (usually) at this location.

Here's a closer look at those Waffle Fries from SeaWorld's Chick-fil-A. These are exactly the same recipe as the Chick-fil-A Waffle Fries that you get outside the park!

The Tonkotsu Ramen at Katsura Grill in Epcot's Japan Pavilion.

The interior seating area at Katsura Grill is moderately sized, but it can get crowded quickly at peak dining times.

The Tonkotsu Ramen at Katsura Grill is an authentic taste of a typical Japanese lunch item. Just in case you were wondering – spoons are available for those that don't want to try slurping while using chopsticks.

Katsura Grill's Chicken Cutlet Curry is served with a proper and decent amount of that dark Japanese Curry sauce. Japanese Curry sauce is thicker than an Indian Curry sauce, and not nearly as hot (spicy).

The Chicken Cutlet Curry served with White Rice and Broccoli from Katsura Grill (in the Japan Pavilion at Epcot) is one of those rare items I've given a 10 out of 10 score to. It's authentic, a great value, and definitly Oishī (delicious).

It's sooooo cold in the icy realm of the Antarctic pavilion at SeaWorld. Okay, okay... it was really foggy and like 95°F (35°)... but still, it looks really cold, right?

Chocolate Chip Cookie from Expedition Cafe at SeaWolrd, Orlando.

Here's a closer look at the Beef & Broccoli from Expedition Cafe. It's part of the Asian Signature Combo... Pick 1 or Pick 2 plates.

This is the Asian Signature Combo Pick 2 from Expedition Cafe in SeaWorld. It combines Teriyaki Chicken, Beef & Broccoli, and Fried Rice.

There seems to be three equal portions of food in the Pick 2 from Expedition Cafe. Pictured here in the center and bottom of the plate is the Teriyaki Chicken.

The Asian Signature Combo at Expedition Cafe includes Fried Rice, and then you can pick 2 additional main items. The darker "main item" pictured here is the Beef & Broccoli (bottom center of the plate).

The Chocolate Chip Cookie is one of the items you'll find on the menu at most counter service locations at SeaWorld.
