Turf Club for Dinner at Saratoga Springs

After my Swedish Massage at Senses Spa at Saratoga Springs, I went to meet Nick at The Turf Club. It’s been years since we’ve been here, it had been a favorite of ours for lunch (easy to get into and the food was quite good) – when we stopped staying “on property” and they stopped

Epcot International Flower & Garden Festival 2014 – Lotus House Spring Pancake

Last year, we had the Spring Pancake twice… the first time, it was pretty “sorry” – the second time, it was improved.

Spring Pancake from Lotus House 2014 (with a side dabble of Srircha Sauce)

So far in 2014, our reviews on this item are mixed…

the pancake wasn’t greasy as it had

Mighty Irish Festival at Raglan Road – Lunch Demonstration by Chef Kevin Dundon

So by now you know that we’re fans of Kevin Dundon and fans of Raglan Road Pub at Downtown Disney. And, in recent years, as Kevin has done more special events (outside of the signature dinner during the Epcot Food & Wine Festival), we’ve not been able to make it work with our schedules… In

bluezoo, we tried something new (two things actually)

This visit to bluezoo began with my visit to Mandara Spa (Balinese Massage), and nick waited for me in the bluezoo lounge. At the time, they were working on changing the cocktail menu and he had the opportunity to try the White Negroni … verdict, it’s very smooth.

We’ve talked about having the raw bar

2014 Epcot Flower and Garden Festival – Outdoor Kitchens and our plans for this year

Last year, we tried to eat everything from the outdoor kitchens during the Flower and Garden Festival (link to our FlipBoard magazine, Adults Extra Walt Disney World Magic – Flower & Garden 2013) – we didn’t “succeed” because there were some booths that we just didn’t want to eat at…

Sorry folks, this year is

Splitsville and 3 Pepper Calamari

Splitsville has been open at Downtown Disney for over a year and we hadn’t stopped in yet (for food or bowling that is, we’ve had drinks with friends at the outside bar a time or two). Our friends, Al & Judy and Harry & Sandy, bowled here last April – they had a great time

Kimono’s Sushi Bar – an accidental Valentine’s Dinner

We try to go out to dinner on Friday evenings… usually nothing extreme, drinks and a few nibbles or a light dinner… usually at the Swan and Dolphin Resorts. Well, this year, Valentine’s Day was on a Friday and we found ourselves at Kimono’s Sushi Bar… We haven’t been here in a long while and
