My biggest regret from our last trip is not making it to Abracadabar. We stayed at YC for 12 nights but still didn't manage to find the time

Day 10 - 26th Sept: Longhorn Steakhouse - I-Drive

The whole of I-Drive was super busy over the next few days. There was a Microsoft Ignite Conference at the Convention Centre bringing in an extra 25-30,000 people to the area. The streets, bars & restaurants were absolutely swarming!

We had over an hour wait for a table at Longhorns and in the mean time someone at the bar had managed to drop their newly poured glass of red wine all over Andy and the floor & a bit of glass cut open his foot.

It was not the best start to the meal & probably set the tone for how the evening went.

When we were finally seated we ordered drinks.

White Peach Sangria for me.

Angry Orchard for Andy.



We were very pleased when the Honey Wheat bread was eventually dropped off at our table as we were starving.





We both had the exact same meal, so only 1 set of photos.

Caesar Salad that comes included in the price of the entree.



This was really enjoyable.

8oz Flo's Filet with loaded baked potatoes all round.





We were not asked to cut into our steaks to check the cooking (as can be the case at other restaurants) and as it turns out both were overcooked. We asked for medium, but they were more like Well done.

It was getting so late & we hadn't seen our server in quite a while - we just stuck some A1 sauce on them and ploughed on. It wasn't awful by any means, the meat was still soft - just not perfect.

We chalked the meal up to being a one off bad experience as they were absolutely rammed (even more than usual!). It certainly would not put me off returning in the future.

Day 10 - 26th Sept: Walgreens Goodies - I-Drive

We didn't stick around for dessert after dinner & instead grabbed some stuff from Walgreens on the way back to our hotel.

We ate these in bed watching probably either Family Guy or American Dad.





Yum.

Oh no such a shame about the long wait and the wine and then the cut foot incident at Longhorns, this was one of our favourites.

Ooh I love Pepperidge Farm cookies! Not tried that flavour before though - they look amazing!

Some lovely looking drinks and great ideas for me for our next trip. Hope Andys foot wasn't too badly cut.

Day 11 - 27th Sept: Tune In Lounge - Hollywood Studios

The Tune in Lounge is the bar waiting area for 50's Prime Time Cafe. You can grab a quick drink (or milkshake) there or even order anything off the 50's PTC menu to eat at the bar but it's a bit hectic in there to eat for my liking.

This is what it typically looks like.



We headed over shortly before lunch time & managed to bag the last 2 seats at the bar! We timed it right because it got very BUSY after that.

Grandma's Picnic Punch
Skyy Vodka, Peach Schnapps, Creme de Cassis, Light Lemonade, and Pineapple Juice, and a Souvenir Glow Cube. $12.95



So pretty! It tasted pretty good too.

Andy had a cider.
