The Wonder-ful wrestling (food) report 2017-**COMPLETE**
Hello all! I did do a pre trip for this but i'll give you a bit of info.
We got back from Orlando in October and quite quickly decided to go back for Wrestlemania in March/April. So we flew on 27th March and got back on 6th April. We stayed at Rosen Inn at Pointe Orlando for the whole trip and did lots of wrestling, Universal and Disney. This is going to be a food report but I may explain a little off topic in regards to wrestling stuff. So the report will be: Pre travel day-Nicholas Culpepper and Thyme Travel day-Premier Inn, plane and Millers. Day 1-Starbucks, Finnegans, Margaritaville and Bubba Gumps Day 2-Toothsome, Louie's, NBC and Millers Day 3-Sci Fi diner and Gaston's Day 4-Main Event, Buffalo Wild Wings and Walgreens Day 5-Friendlys, Zebra Sports bar and hotel shop. Day 6-Millers, snacks and Citrus Bowl. Day 7-Cookes of Dublin, Earl of Sandwich, Sprinkles, Jock Lindseys. Day 8-San Francisco candy factory, Springfield, Shoreline and Zebra. Day 9-Seuss, Millers and plane food. Day 10-Plane food. First update should asap

Pre travel day
Sunday 26th March-Pre travel day
We left our flat in Brighton to get our 2:19pm train to Gatwick, it went the long way through Arundel because of railworks. But we ended up at Gatwick just after 3:40. We booked our dinner for 6pm and were in Room 666! Picked up our dollars, did Twilight check in by about 5:10. So we popped to... Nicholas Culpepper Really the only bar in North terminal. We grabbed me a strawberry & lime Rekorderlig and Arron a Corona. Then Arron had a Bud too. These 3 drinks were about £14 altogether and we stayed here until about 5:55 when we headed for our reservation at Thyme. Thyme at Premier Inn We had the meal deal with the room which meant we had an alcoholic drink and 2 courses each for free. I opted for the Rose and Arron had a Carling(with an iceberg looking head!) Arron ordered the prawn cocktail for starter. He always loves a prawn cocktail so was very happy with it, it came with bread too which looked really nice. I skipped the starter and went for the sirloin steak cooked medium with garlic butter, Arron got the ribeye(paid an extra £2) and had his cooked medium rare. My steak was cooked medium rare, which was a bit irriating but it was really busy so I just ate what I could. The mushrooms were really nice too. Arron's... No complaints on his at all. Arron got another drink and I had the chocolate sundae. This was fine, a bit more kiddie than expected but enjoyable all the same! We paid all of £6 for the extras and ended up heading to the bar next door. In the bar I grabbed a Rekorderlig, Arron drank a few double JD and cokes. We paid individually for these but the JD's were actually pretty reasonable. This was it for the evening, we were in the room at 10:30 and off to sleep relatively quickly too.
