The following is a list that I have compiled of DISers who frequent the Dining Review Board and have either recently been to Disney World or will soon be going there. I'm sure I have missed some people, and for that I apologize. I certainly do not want to exclude anyone, so please don't hesitate to let me know your trip information so that I can add it to the list. Also if you start a Pre-Trip Report or Pre-Dining Report prior to your trip, please let me know so I can add the link. Same thing goes for DR's or TR's started after you return home. With your help I will attempt to keep this list as current and accurate as possible. Oh, and in case you were wondering, I will no longer update this list on my Dining Report and I'll be changing over the link in my signature soon.

The very first live from Disney World update that I received was from a very special lady, who is pretty well-known around these parts.
![]() ![]() Brenda (aka emmysmommy) In this picture, Brenda is holding the TO DO" List which I composed for her prior to her trip to Disney World last month. Brenda, being the gracious person that she is, decided to humor my craziness and put forth her best efforts to complete each of the 18 tasks on her list. It is still unknown just how many of these were completed, but you can follow her progress on both her current Trip Report and Dining Report. We do however know that she successfully completed the first item of her list - 1) Take lots of pics at any DISmeets you have with DDW, GoofySon’s Mom, PrincessBetsy, or anyone else. Actually she completed this task in a "BIG" way, meeting 9 DISers during her 12 night trip! In fact if I am the "Queen of Lists" (thanks, Linda! ), then Brenda is the "Queen of DIS meets". Let's see, if I remember correctly, the next picture to be sent to me by Brenda was from her first DIS meet with DonaldDoleWhip... ![]() Yep, it's a headless DonaldDoleWhip! (Doesn't Brenda know that I like my prawns headless, but my DDWs to be head-on??? )Next came another teaser pic… ![]() And then finally the face of Mr. DonaldDoleWhip was revealed… ![]() Now I’m sure that you are probably already following along with DDW’s current Dining Report, but just in case you aren’t …get yourself over there now! After getting caught in a downpour while riding Splash Mountain together, they met up with PrincessBetsy, who is currently working at Magic Kingdom through the Disney College Program. Then on that same evening, Brenda (still with DDW) bumped into another DISer, Disneyfreak616… That’s three, but Brenda still met 6 more DISers during her trip. Four of these she revealed during her live updates to me. ![]() Brenda with wilmabride (Joh) Here is a LINK to the Index Page for the installments of Joh's Trip Report. ![]() Brenda with a newly-married, Pinkgirl (Marie) ![]() Brenda with Joh, GoofySon’sMom (Vicki), and Tracerr00 (Tracy) Their very fun DIS meet has already been revealed in both Vicki’s and Tracy’s Dining Reports, so check these out to hear more about it and see lots more pics! Then DISer #8 was recently revealed in DisneyMomFanatic’s (Karla) current DR… ![]() Brenda, Karla, and a photobomber! See Karla’s Dining Report to hear more about this meet. So if I have counted correctly, that makes 8 DISers that have been revealed to us so far. Who will #9 be??? Stay tuned to Brenda’s Trip Report and Dining Report to find out the answer.

So after finding out how fun it was to receive Brenda’s “live” updates from Disney World and seeing how well they were received when I shared them here, I then contacted two more of our Disney Dining Reporters who traveled to Disney World at the end of August.
![]() GoofySon’sMom (Vicki) and Tracerr00 (Tracy) When I sent each of these wonderful ladies a PM asking them if they might be willing to do live updates during their trips, they both answered my (probably rather odd) request with an enthusiastic, “YES!” And so here are a few of the live updates I received from Vicki… What do when your room isn't yet ready... ![]() Strawberry Margarita from the CSR Pool Bar This just in from GoofySon'sMom, who is having lunch at the Hollywood Brown Derby... ![]() Margarita Flight at Hollywood Brown Derby (This one's for you, Master Linda Sorry the above pic is a little blurry. Just imagine that you have already had one of these flights when viewing this picture. ![]() Oh, and being the good DISer that she is, GoofySon'sMom also sent a pic of the menu description of her margarita flight ![]() And this from GoofySon'sMom, reporting live from her lunch at Yak & Yeti... "No margarita today...sake instead with ahi tuna" ![]() ![]() Yak & Yeti's Seared Ahi Tuna Appetizer and Sake Mom and Dad had a surprise waiting for their Goofy Son at their dinner tonight at California Grill... ![]() Marble Cake with Fudge Mousse Filling (just in case you were wondering )Reporting "Live" from her dinner tonight at Narcoossee's... ![]() Vicki's (GoofySon'sMom) Agave Margarita Vicki (GoofySon'sMom) & family had dinner tonight at Tokyo Dining and guess what delicious cocktail she had???.... ![]() Sake-rita (Japanese version of a margarita) I had to look this one up since I'd never heard of it and so here is the description I found, Sake-Rita - Sake, Grand Marnier, orange curacao and lime juice Oh, and Vicki asked me to let Linda know that this was possibly the best margarita so far! At her dinner at 'Ohana tonight, Vicki (GoofySon'sMom) did not get a margarita. Nor did she get a Lapu Lapu. Here is the delicious cocktail that Vicki chose... ![]() Pineapple Upside-Down Martini SKYY Infusions Pineapple Vodka, Frangelico, Piña Colada Mix, and freshly squeezed Lemon Juice Vicki said this was amazing! And here are a couple of Tracy’s live updates… From Tracy (Tracerr00)... "DD told me she wanted a turkey leg and I really thought she was joking. She was not! Not my cup of tea but she loved it!" ![]() Eilee and a Big 'Ole Turkey Leg Tracy and Eilee have arrived at the Boardwalk... ![]() Ahhh...the Boardwalk, my favorite resort! ![]() And I'm happy to report that...THEY LOVE IT!!! Please see Vicki’s and Tracy’s Dining Reports to hear more about their trips.

Once Tracy and then Vicki returned home, there was then a lull of nearly week in the “live reporting” action. No one was volunteering to do them and I feared that the idea might be “dead in the water”. I then sent out an “ SOS” to another awesome Disney Dining Reporter…
![]() BlovesC (Becky) Becky came to our rescue and sent these live updates during her long weekend trip earlier this month. This just in from Becky (BlovesC), who checked into the Beach Club this morning... "Guess where we are?" ![]() This is the floor of Beaches & Cream! ![]() Followed shortly thereafter by this delicious-looking text... ![]() This is none other than the No Way Jose...one of my favorite Disney Desserts!!! And another update from our Live Reporter, Becky... "Saving this to be my back-up dinner if Cape May is a bust again!" ![]() ![]() Coffee Mocha Cupcake from the Boardwalk Bakery "Also found these guys in the Beach Club Marketplace. Didn't buy any, but I know they have fans mourning their removal from Cape May. Six to a package...couldn't find a price though!" ![]() Oreo BonBons (previously served dessert at Cape May Buffet Dinner) ADDED NOTE FROM jabead: I myself have never tried these, as I've never been to Cape May for dinner. So I wanted to see just what these looked like, outside of the package. ![]() I'd have to say that these look pretty good, but not as good as Becky's Boardwalk cupcake. In case you were wondering where Becky and Charlie had lunch today (after deciding not to have lunch again at Beaches & Cream), here is the answer... ![]() Delicious Turkey, Brie & Cranberry Sandwich with a side of Cous Cous from the Beach Club Marketplace Becky and Charlie had dinner tonight at the Flying Fish Cafe... "Here is one of our Flying Fish entrees! Great meal, but I'm pretty sure our server must have moved over from 50's Prime Time Cafe." ![]() The Flying Fish Signature Char-crusted New York Strip Steak with a classic sauce foyot Served with Roasted Fingerling Potatoes, Haricot Vert (thin green beans), and Young Carrots Breakfast today for Becky and Charlie was at Kouzzina... "Our breakfast made Kouzzina a strong rival to Kona Cafe!" ![]() Steel Cut Cinnamon Oatmeal - with Bananas, walnuts, and Honey-drizzle This just in from Becky & Charlie, reporting live from their lunch at Sanaa. Where Becky had this... ![]() Mango-glazed Tandoori Chicken Breast - served with arugula, cucumber, radish, mango and masala-spiced pistachios And for dessert.. "By request, a big cup of Chai cream! Saved me from ordering the trio when this was all I wanted!" ![]() Here is Becky's COMPLETED Dining Report, if you'd like to read more about her trip.

Just woke up from a nap, and this is what I see! I can't wait for this thread to take off like the last one did - the live updates were a brilliant idea.
![]() Thank you so much for doing this - it's the best thing in the world for those of us who aren't in the World.

Next came Ginamarie & family, who were at Disney World from 9/16 - 9/29. Ginamarie volunteered to be a live reporter for us and did a fantastic job, with two weeks of delicious updates! Here is her first live update from 9/16... Ginamarie and family dined tonight at the Cape May Clam Bake Buffet at the Beach Club Resort,
where Ginamarie's dinner plate looked like this... ![]() Starting from the crab legs at the top of the plate, there is a regular roll, corn bread with Mac & Cheese underneath, Gnocchi with beef and peas (which she said was phenomenal! Then her dessert plate looked like this... ![]() Strawberry shortcake, Flourless chocolate cake, and a Chocolate Chip Cookie Ginamarie said the food was great! In fact it was so good that the baby started eating the tablecloth when the food was all gone! ![]() ![]()
