Late lunch

Rainforest cafe, AK



Rating Good

This was our second time eating here. DD loved it and wanted to eat here again.

Our adr was for 4pm but we were wilting and ready for a break at 2.15 ish. We asked if we could be seated early and were with a 10 min wait.



This is how the dxddp worked well for us. We would have otherwise left the park but after a sit down in the air conditioning stayed for the parade.

The server was lovely here and it was pretty quiet and the air conditioning was very welcome.

DD wanted the frog cup so we paid extra for that – think it was $10. It was filled with blue slushie – her tongue was blue after two blue drinks in one day!



We shared an awesome appetiser – this was good especially the chimichangas. I had the shrimp dish off the specials menu – it was three sorts of shrimp and very tasty. DH had a double burger which he enjoyed. DD had pasta alfedo.



The server said we could have shared the volcano for dessert but DD wanted the worms in dirt off the kids menu. DH had cheesecake. I was full so passed on dessert. We had coke to drink.



Used 3 TS credits



We ended the day with a trip to Walmart for bottled water and some beer for DH. We didn’t end up eating anything later as we were full from lunch and had an early night.

Agree it was too much for arrival day. We had so many credits and DH didn't fancy Olivia's (had a so so meal there last time)

Last year we had booked a TS meal at the Turf Club (we were staying at SSR) for our first night & we were all hanging, next year we are due to arrive a little earlier so are considering popping over to DTD, shall give Raglan Road a miss for somewhere a little quieter!
I enjoyed your trip report with dxddp. I can remember you passing on dessert your first night - you forget how tired you feel.

Thanks - aiming to do one a day

Most of the tea party pics are on photopass which I haven't sorted yet - will add them later. The cake was very nice.

Some more fantastic meals.

I think YS is my favourite signature. It's been consistently excellent each time we've eaten there. Very much enjoying your reviews!

Really enjoying reading this, and so many great photos also. The tea party photo is so cute!

Our DD went to the tea party also a couple of years ago and I remember worrying about her as well but she had a great time. I think having two older brothers she enjoyed doing something girly!
