Great HBD review. The server can really make a huge difference, especially when they know their stuff. Do you happen to remember the server's name?
I'm afraid I don't remember his name which is awful of me
I think I might have had 'Margarita Brain' by the end of the meal
HBD is not on our list for next year - I'm starting to think that maybe it should be.....
Great review Linda - fantastic, mouthwatering pictures!
Thanks Shari
When are you going next year?
I'd love to hear your plans
Wow the grouper looks amazing, and I love the presentation of the food there.
It was an amazing dish and you're right, the presentation was excellent
I'm so happy that you enjoyed Hollywood Brown Derby! It's my favorite restaurant in any WDW park (even above Bistro de Paris), and the perfect place for a lunch in Hollywood Studios (if I ever stayed in the park until dinner time, it would be a perfect choice for dinner too).
I miss that grapefruit cake so much right now. Some people really don't like it, but it's perfect for me.
It was your reviews that made me decided to try HBD
I am thinking about going to Citricos in May as it's the one signature we haven't tried
I've missed a couple of updates.
Sorry Columbia Harbor House was not open for you. Your bun does look like a float went over it; funny, when we ate there, mine was fine.
Those cupcakes have me absolutely drooling right now as I only had a small salad for lunch which was not nearly enough to satisfy my hunger pains.
I'm so glad you enjoyed your meal at Brown Derby. We went in 2007 and had horrible service (the worse sevice we have ever had at Disney) and an unforgettable meal and we've hesitated going back. I know if we do that Mark won't get the grapefruit cake as he detested it. But, perhaps he would like it better if he ate it the way you and hubby did.
And I love the haircut story.
Poor service can really spoil a meal, even if the food is great
It's been rare that we have had poor service to be honest but our server at HBD was a total star and a credit to his profession
We have never been to HBD, but your review would certainly make me look at this if we ever go again
I would highly recommend you give it a try
Wow, those cupcakes look heavenly! They remind me of Crumbs. (Huge cupcake chain we have here in NY.)
The food at HBD looks amazing as well, esp. the margaritas!
Mmm perhaps a cupcake with a margarita chaser is the way to go next year
Sounds like the whole experience was great for you at HBD. The pork looks and sounds delicious to me and the desserts looked stellar too!
We really enjoyed ourselves - I'd love to go back for dinner sometime
WOW!!! HBD has shot to the top of my must do list quickly! This is the third "rave" review I've read lately. Have to re-tweak my February ADR's.
That's the problem with these boards, you plan your ADRs and are then constantly tweaking them
