Next we have this update from Kerri (wdwpirates). She said, "We have not had a good 48 hours. Jim has a horrible head cold. It's been just miserable. But we are back up and running! Here is our update from 2 nights ago (Saturday night) at..." ![]() "I know this place gets mixed reviews but we always have a great time and tasty food.

Some menu pics... ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Here's what they chose... ![]() "We went with Onion Rings for an app. Pretty sure these are panko crusted. They are decent, hot and fresh.

They do a great job with this...so moist with nice seasoning!" 2 February Game Points Earned + 5 Bonus Points for sign & menu pics and new cocktail

I had dinner here before, but not breakfast." ![]() A menu pic... ![]() And here is what he chose... ![]() "This is the spinach egg white fritatta.

Are those regular mashed potatoes or mashed sweet potatoes? They don't look orange-ish, so maybe they are regular potatoes. We have an ADR for Narcosee's in July, so I am curious.

Next we have breakfast update from Emily & Brenda. They were at Magic Kingdom yesterday and had breakfast at... Cinderella's Royal Table ![]() Emily said, "Here are the pastries they serve at breakfast. I had a berry danish, an apple danish, and a cinnamon roll. Mom tried the banana walnut bread and loved it. I wish we'd tried the biscuits, because I remember them being really good." ![]() "We both ordered the stuffed french toast with cream cheese filling, baked apple, caramel sauce and raisins. I didn't like the chocolate version of this at all, and compared to that one, this is alright, but it's nothing incredible." ![]() "Birthday cupcake! Delicious." ![]() 2 February Game Points Earned

Next is another update from Kerri (wdwpirates). She and her DH were at Epcot yesterday and had lunch at... Yorkshire County Fish Shop ![]() Kerri said, "Just the basic Fish & Chips. I will say that it's always hot and fresh here but, there is no substitution for the Fish & Chips inside the pub! Jim and I both enjoyed our lunch though!" Then Kerri & Jim got some snacks from France's... Les Halles Boulangerie Patisserie First a menu pic... ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() And they chose... ![]() ![]() Kerri said, "We selected the Napoleon and the Strawberry tart. The Napoleon is just not the same....I tried so hard to like it but its just not worth the calories now. The layers of pastry tasted burnt, the cream was too heavy and sugary and the frosting on top tasted like it belonged on a donut, not a delicate French pastry." ![]() "On an up note, the strawberry tart was awesome! Fresh fruit, delicious pastry cream, and a great tart base / crust! Two thumbs up for this one!!" Then also this snack from France's... ![]() Crepes and Ice Cream Kiosk ![]() "Here we have what I consider to be THE BEST ice cream available in WDW!!! It's from the crepes kiosk in France. So rich and creamy.....it should be illegal to sell this it's that good. I crave this stuff! And only the chocolate will do!" ![]() Then one last stop at Japan's... ![]() Tea & Sake Kiosk ![]() ![]() "Jim hasn't been feeling well and he's a big tea drinker especially when he's sick. So he got himself an Iced Green Tea which he enjoyed very much. Cool and refreshing. This is the real deal if you are a tea lover!! Two thumbs up! I added in a pic of the Tokyo Sunrise. It looks soooo good. It's on my list for later this week!!!" ![]() 6 February Game Points Earned + 6 Bonus Points for menu and misc. other pics
