Thanks MickeyNicki! Can't wait to read the trip reports!!!!

Ha, I turn my dining report into my trip report! Maybe in Oct I will have more to write about, if the weather is better!

Hey girl, did you just get back from your trip too?? Cannot wait to hear all about it

 

[irongirlof12]

LOVE your report - the only problem is - I now have to plan to do boma for breakfast and Yaghtsmans - I now have some tought choices to make!

 

[oybolshoi]

Hey Nicki, just thought you'd like to know that Jay and I are trying the GF Cafe for breakfast in October. Epcot canceled our fancy schmancy champagne brunch so we decided to try something new, in part, based on your experience there. Here's hoping that breakfast is as good as dinner!

Hi Bren! That is too funny because I not only added the GFC for dinner for our Oct trip but I also added a breakfast! I hope we both love it!....PS not too long now and we will both be back to WDW

It is pretty darn sad when a valet picks you out as a big Boma eater

That is a tag if I ever saw one. Oh, Tag Fairy....

Sad to say we are also big Boma eaters. Now does that say more about us or the size of our behinds?

Stay tuned for the Live Oct edition, to begin sometime on Oct 18th! Also hang around for Nicki and Todd do Disney with KIDS! We are taking a 12.5 and 6 year old nieces in January for 4 days so we will have a lot more food pics, probably of the chicken nugget - pizza variety! It will be live it will be real and I think it will be a real headache!!!!

A fab review as always! Bummer about all that rain, but the late August crowds seemed very manageable. Early August wasn't as rainy for us, but it was crowded! Loved every minute of the Poly, though!

That's so cool that you are taking your nieces to WDW in January. We are heading down with ours in May. They will only be 1 & 1/2 (twins), so it will be a family affair. Me, DGF, DSis, DBIL, DM, DF, the whole lot of us. Good times!

Looking forward to your October reviews!

Ok honey, I made that line my tag line

We took our nieces back in 06 when they were 9 and 3...picture DH and myself, no kids of our own so we really do not know the day to day things, trying to keep up with these 2 little ones for 4 days! I was crying the first day! Now that they will be 12 and 6 I think we will be able to handle it better!

I cannot wait until your Spring trip, I remember when the twins were born and you were leaving on your trip....cannot believe that they will be that old on your next trip and I cannot wait to hear all about it!

Luvs it!

WOW great reviewing, as always!

Hmm..looks like the falafel is a must!

I've been to Kona and enjoyed it and have an adr for this next trip but I don't think the menu looks all that great....but GFC sure does! Looks like I will have to find a spot for it!

Thank you!
Margaret

As per usual, I am late to the party.

However, a great food report, and thank you! You were the reason I switched my Boma ressie from a dinner to breakfast, and I can't wait to go, it looks/sounds yummy.

The falafel is so good, I cannot wait to try it at Boma dinner next month. I was thinking of changing our Kona reservation but I have no idea what I should add!

Better late than never right?! I hope you love Boma as much as I do!

Hi all!

About 2 weeks ago I decided to drive up on Thursday and the Poly rooms were full rack rate so I booked a night at the CSR and we left alot later than I would have liked. We got onto I-4 around 10 last night and it was pouring rain until we arrived at the CSR at 11pm. It rained and the wind was really strong and I was beginning to think this would be an indoor resort vacation, which is still a nice vacation!

Sadly we really did not get to check out the CSR at all because when we woke up this morning it was pouring rain again! We were in Casitas II on the second floor in the back of the building and it was nice and clean and quiet.

We got to the Pepper Market around 8am this morning and it was very nice! We both enjoyed it alot! DH wants to stay at the CSR just for the Pepper Market! I apologize if some pictures are dark but with all the rain the skies are dark and the rooms are pretty dark too.

We were seated right next to the fruit station and if you have read any of my other reviews you know we are fruit maniacs. We shared a mixed fruit bowl of watermelon, cantelope, honeydew, pineapple and strawberries. You can get a single bowl of each type of fruit or get a combo of whatever you like. The fruit was amazing, so ripe and sweet and just darn tasty!

DH has a thing for WDW cinnamon buns so he had to get one....he said it was very good and soft and spicy.

We decided to share the biscuits and gravy, humongous biscuit that was very good, light and buttery and crispy edges just smothered in a very light and creamy sausage flavored gravy...no sausage in it tho much to my dismay.

We also shared a breakfast platter. The best scrambled eggs, I have a huge love affair with WDW scrambled eggs...they are just unlike any other! Crisp bacon that DH ate, sausage (thin) links that were not salty at all and terrible potato bits...these were just plain blech. A choice of biscuit or muffin came with the platter and DH chose a blueberry muffin that had the consistency of a sponge and the taste of LARD...double blech!

Our server brought me an ice tea and DH a hot coffee, the server said they offer caps and lattes and such but he just wanted plain stuff and he said it was ok.

After breakfast we went back to the room (still pouring rain) and he worked while I read my book and then we checked out around 12.

THanks for sharing! The food looks very good!!

Nicki Been reading you food reports and trying to sort out our chosen ADR's before our booking window opens. And DH says after reading about your breakfast at Boma why are we not going there. To be honest I said I hadn't seen anyone post about breakfast there so hadn't considered it. Of course now it will be added to our list it is a Buffet I take it with all that food on offer. Even DD aged 7 1/2 said look at all those pancakes can we go there. By the way what is Pap, haven't heard of that before.

Great review can't wait until Feb

 

[10_Kyle_10]

The inside was packed to the gills. We sat on the left side, which is a first for us, and there were 2 humongous tables of 10 each directly behind us. The kids were running and screaming like little maniacs and the parents were talking to each other super loud (they were so loud the server didnt hear what I wanted to drink and I said it loud and twice!) and they were from Boston. How do I know? Because I know that we pahk the cah in Hahvahd Yahd. I too used to speak that way but I bought the Floridians Handbook Of Dropping the Accent (when you move here they give you one ). Their tables looks like they had finished and were to leave soon so that was a good thing BUT there were super pissed that they missed Eeyore. They told the server they were not leaving until they saw him. The server told them they had to stay in their seats because there were in other peoples way. These kids were running all over and the adults were just standing around. Our server left and spoke to someone in shirt and tie and before you knew it Eeyore appeared. Thank goodness they left right after that.

I hate to say this but I knew right away you were from the boston area . Im from boston and I picked up on it in your first post! Not only did you use the term "da" for the (or tha) but you had that tone that I just knew while reading that I cant put into words. Us northern'ers pick up on these things!

Go Sox!

I hope you go to Boma, it is amazing! DH said Pap is like grits...he likes them, I didnt even try them

I may have lived in Naples for 18 years but I am still a Boston girl deep down inside! Love the Celtics, Sox and Patriots, and love the awesome food too! When I get all "wicked" excited my accent comes right out, it is so funny because people that do know I am from Mass are shocked! Fav movie, Goodwill Hunting baby!

I grew up in JP where my family still is then lived 8 years in Chicago and now 24 years in northern NJ. When people ask I always say I live in Jersey but I'm really from Boston

I can keep a handle on the accent most of the time. The worst is when I get on the phone with my mother and then it becomes something like "so mah, did you take yoar bahth yet?" My daughter who was born and bred in Jersey thinks it is hysterical!

How 'bout them Sox, anyway? Don't ya just love, love, love Dustin Pedroia!

That is me and my mom in a nutshell....my mom is still in MA and when I talk to her (tahk to huh) I say Mah, waddah ya doin? That's wicked awesome or no sa (my version of no sir). My DH cracks up...when I go to visit her it takes me a week to drop my accent...its amazing how it just comes back to you

Just finished reading your reviews! We checked in on the 23rd and had our Poly photoshoot in the rain! It was actually great fun!

THANK YOU once again for the great reviews! Putting GFC on my list to try on a future trip! That steak looked fantastic!
