Cactus Pear Margarita (L) and a 16oz White Marlin Beer (R)

Lobster Roll with fries upgraded to cheesy

Chicken Quesadilla

Eagle Eyed readers will note the quesadilla is not on the bill, it’s was ordered as steak and the kitchen took 30 mins to let our waitress know they’d 86’d it. Trying to helpful she offered to have them make it with the Philly steak - ten minutes later it appeared chicken was the only option. Despite assuring her it wasn’t a problem at all she insisted it came off the bill.

Excellent service and I increased the tip accordingly even though the food took a little longer than we expected

I really like California Pizza Kitchen but didn’t know there was one in Orlando. Like the look of all your food there 🤤

It was a bit early for the bar so Longhorn’s for a late lunch had to do instead

How does the thanksgiving week compare to the Christmas thru NY period? Are they much the same attendance wise (ie. crammed to the max). Fully expecting it to be chaos and beating a hasty retreat to the sanctuary of the resorts at times.

It was time to head downstairs for dinner at

P ordered a Cosmo (R) and I had a

Both really nice and very strong

Caesar salad

Mushroom and onion soup

The soup was really nice, maybe a bit more colour on the cheese needed but it tasted good.

Kitchen Burger

Burger was really nice and tasty cooked to medium well as requested - I asked to upgrade to the duck fat potatoes hence the extra charge but also got the fruit salad option side which I saved for breakfast.


Burnt ends Mac n Cheese

P’s pic and again tasty but there were a few chewy bits in the meat.

Chocolate Brownie

Very naughty but really nice

Service very good too, all came out in the right order and nicely spaced out courses.

About the same I reckon, up and out is the key, and as you say some resort chill out time in the afternoons.

Sounds like a good plan. Have you needed to use Genie+ when at Disney?

Not yet, I've been managing with our DAS pass. We only ever do 3 or 4 rides and half days in parks anyway.

I'll probably buy LL+ rides though when we do DHS and Epcot.
