Sunday 15th May 2011

We both woke up at stupid ‘o’ clock so I decided to head to the gym for an hour. I know, I know, it was temporary madness which I put down to jet leg, don’t worry, it was the first and last visit on this trip with the exception of a massage later in the week

After a shower and a coffee we decided to head down to Roaring Fork to check out the breakfast offerings

Oh yes baby, they have a waffle menu and I considered it my DIS duty to work my way through it over the coming days

Wilderness Waffles – Mickey Waffles with candied pecans and maple butter

We split and order between us which as per my previous comments on the gym this would be the first and last time this happened (mine, mine, mine

)

They were totally delicious, very light and fresh and the maple butter was heavenly

DH quickly took the bacon from the plate but said it tasted weird, not like any bacon he had ever tried before

After breakfast we hung around pool side for a while before heading over to Epcot with the intention of exploring World Showcase

After an enjoyable hour walking around I decided it was time for my first adult beverage of the trip so I had better make it a good one, and boy, it sure was

Avocado Margarita from La Cava Del Tequila

I’d read about this beauty on the DIS and was intrigued as to how it would taste, well let me tell you this is a total work of genius (can you tell I liked it)

As I glugged it down the noises coming from our table were like a scene from ‘When Harry Met Sally’

The only disappointment was that I didn’t get time to go back for another one

I will be sure to rectify this on our next trip!

Coming up next – Tangierine Cafe

'I'll have what she's having!'

Roaring Forks looks amazing! A waffle menu??

I was sad not to get to La Cava last year - that avocado margarita looks heavenly

Can't wait for Tangierine Cafe - that was one of my favourites!

TheMaxRebo · 06-03-2011, 08:31 AM

great start to your review and I love the classy look to your photos with the border

Your trip sounds great - can't imagine taking a vacation that long

LowesChevy · 06-03-2011, 08:58 AM

I am here too! Looking good so far

Stringbean&Wingnut · 06-03-2011, 10:22 AM

I'm in!!! Oooh that avocado margarita looks delicious!! Do they still have the margarita flight there?

Can't wait to read more

I know, Waffles served from 7am - 11am and 4 different types

In October La Cava will be getting more than one visit that's for sure

The margarita was to die for

I asked about the margarita flight and although it isn't on the menu anymore they will consider doing it at slow times. There is a Tequila flight though

Count me in too!

Oh, and I loved your "When Harry Met Sally" reference.

I too got to experience for the first time the La Cava avocado margarita on my trip last month. I now have a new favorite Disney World margarita...DELICIOUS!

MickeyNicki · 06-03-2011, 01:18 PM

I have to try that waffle....the last time we stayed at WL was 2 years ago and they didnt have it. I think a drive over is necessary

dizneeat · 06-03-2011, 01:33 PM

Yum, yum .........

Waffles? A waffle menu ........ hm, maybe we should stay at WL again!

Now, your breakfast looks delish - and I can say the drink WAS delish, as Tom had it in February and I got a sip!

Good choice!

Can't wait to read about your Tangerine Experience, since ours was pretty yuck last time.

Tiggerella · 06-04-2011, 04:31 AM

Wow, hold the phone (or computer in this case): waffle menu? 4 different kinds?

We will be staying at the Wilderness Lodge for our trip this August and had believed no cs mickey waffles would be a concession for the opportunity to stay here, but now you tell me they have them and 4 different kinds??? It's like getting and early dose of pixie dust!

Can you please elaborate on the 4 available kinds if you get a chance? Tnx!

irongirlof12 · 06-04-2011, 04:50 AM

yum yum

in for the ride and can't wait for more

Disney_Mama · 06-04-2011, 07:07 AM

Can't wait for the rest.

TanzUnited99 · 06-04-2011, 08:06 AM

Hi Linda

Having recently read your past dining review I'm jumping on board for this one.

Wow on having a waffle menu to work your way through!

Will def be paying WL a visit on our trip.

Also you went to the gym on your vacation?!

Looking forward to reading more.
