OMG yes, that burger was really good, it’s close to Magic and it’s a nice calm area to relax in for a break

That burger at Contempo looks amazing! I’m a big fan of Disney burgers and that looks like one to make a special trip for!

It’s worth a trip, it’s a really nice juicy burger

They also came with two dipping sauces. One was ginger while the other they called yum yum sauce, our chef said it was called this because it goes with everything, ‘it’s like Japanese ranch’. DF agreed with this and was rather infatuated with it. He has already said we need to find this in the UK when we get back.

Great review of Teppan Edo! Now I can’t wait for our reservation!
The ‘yum yum sauce’ sounds like the sauce we get at our local takeaway.
It’s like a marmite based sauce, and seriously good!

Thanks, I hope you get to go and both enjoy, DF loved the sauce, they mentioned it was a shrimp sauce so it’s is odd that I don’t like it and DF did

Day 3

Contempo Cafe/Contemporary Gift Shop

As we were heading to Magic Kingdom we caught an Uber to the Contemporary Resort to save time. While grabbing a refill on our resort mugs I saw a cherry danish and I was instantly starving and had to order it.

I know it is the standard danish you can get across property but I really enjoyed it. Really nice cherry flavour, like a cherry pie filling rather than the nasty fake cherry flavouring that you get sometimes. Yum Yum Yum.

DF had been wandering round the shops and found monster in the store tucked away near the new Pixar kids club. Monster makes DF very happy if not a bit more human, and it’s not a bad value for a snack credit.

Be Our Guest

We had an early lunch reservation in Be Our Guest (that’s why I shouldn’t have eaten the danish earlier)

We ordered a French Dip baguette and a turkey baguette to share. We asked for no mayonnaise on the turkey, however DF later asked for the Dijon mayonnaise to put on his turkey.

When they arrived the fries were cold, there was no problem getting them replaced by the server and she was very apologetic.

The sandwiches were good, I preferred the beef while DF preferred the turkey. The beef had a garlic flavour to it which some might find a bit strong but I loved (sorry to those who got stuck next to me on rides for the rest of the day). If I had the choice and DF was willing I would still order both and split. I’d read someone’s report before where their sandwiches had been dry but this wasn’t the case with ours, they were great. I’d recommend lunch here as you get to see the castle and it’s no where near the cost of dinner (cash or credits) for a counter service its great and you get refills on your drink.

Starbucks AK

DF ordered his usual Venti Vanilla Bean Frappuccino, I tried something new the very berry hibiscus refresher, the refreshers come in a size Trenta, which I can only assume translates as handheld bucket. It’s massive and the drink is delicious nice fruity taste but not too strong and really refreshing. There are berries in the drink as well which is a nice touch. Loved this! I’m going to be heart broken when I no longer have the dining plan and have to pay to get one.

Pongu Pongu

I’d seen the Night Blossom drink on several of the reviews, vlogs and countless images on Instagram but as it’s Apple and pear and I can’t stand pear I got it more to say I’d tried it than actually wanting it. Boy was I wrong. This is amazing! Really delicious and refreshing, it’s not sickly like I was expecting. All I can say is get one and try it, I’ll be back for more of these!

Blaze

Blaze for us was a highlight QS from our last trip, although it isn’t the highest value the food is really good and we love pizza!

I got the standard dough with classic red sauce and a pesto crust, mushrooms, pepperoni, garlic and oregano.

This was delicious, great quality pizza. The only thing I would change was the pesto crust, it just seemed to have caught in the oven and tasted slightly too cooked.

DF got standard dough with spicy red sauce and a pesto crust (yes he copied me) with pepperoni, red onions, chicken, garlic, basil and oregano.

He really enjoyed this too, and agreed with me that the pesto crust wasn’t that great.

We love coming here and it’ll be hard to keep to our not repeating meals

Haha! Well make the most of it! It will definitely be something to remember!
Well, it’s slow! Haha! We got engaged about a year and a half ago and didn’t plan anything until this year!
We have a venue (which includes food) sorted and a registrar and photographer haha!
The rest I haven’t even contemplated yet!

How’s yours going?
