I need a suggestion. I’m going to WDW Jan 23rd for one night, and am transferring to Universal the next day (my birthday) for the Harry Potter weekend. I am in my 50s and will either be by myself or with a friend. I don’t want to pay for a whole day’s park admission for just a few hours, and am afraid to make reservations because – what if the flight is delayed? Can you recommend someplace good for dinner? Staying at the Boardwalk. How about breakfast on my birthday? Thank you for your help.
AJ/Brad,
Great idea with the “Dream Meal” concept. As Disney foodies, my wife and I think about this kind of stuff often. I would take it a few steps farther and come up with a 5 course menu:
Cocktails: Cucumber Margarita @ La Cava and the barrel-aged Rob Roy at Blue Zoo (must have at least two cocktails)
Bread course: the flat bread sampler at Sanaa w/ all of the dips/spreads
Appetizer: selection of cheeses and cured meats from Tutto Gusto (the “Duck in all its Glory” from Cali Grill would be a close 2nd)
Salad: the appetizer version of the Cobb Salad at Brown Derby
Entree: Oak-grilled Filet Mignon from Jiko
Sides: Roasted bone marrow, savory truffle and hazelnut crunch donut filled with yukon gold potato and red currant gastrique from Artist Point AND Leek-fontina-truffle laced trofie macaroni and cheese from FLying Fish
Dessert: Salted Caramel & Clement Rum martini from L’Artisan des Glaces
Nightcap: Press-pot coffee from Kouzzina
Anyway, cool idea to ponder. Great show!
Cheryl D. — Our favorite is Flying Fish on the Boardwalk — well worth it! Other possibilities to try in that area for dinner: Yachtsman Steakhouse and Beaches and Cream in Disney’s Yacht and Beach Club Resorts, and Bluezoo or Il Mulino at the Swan and Dolphin close by. For breakfast — definitely get the cinnamon roll at Kouzzina!
Keith — Awesome day of delightful food!! I still haven’t tried the mac and cheese at Flying Fish; hope it’s on the menu on my next visit!
