A friend at work suggested I try Kona Cafe after her recent trip, and your review has cinched it. Hoping to go back in November (REALLY hoping), and if we do, Kona will be on the ADR list!!
As always, wonderful updates!!!
Ok - I'm trying to decide between a breakfast at CM before MK opens, OR a lunch at either the Plaza or Liberty Tree Tavern.
We're planning on going to 1900 Park Fair that night, so not anything huge.
Thoughts???
DH went for the Kona Cone...
He was a bit worried this was actually a kid's dessert, but it's not on the kid's menu! Heh! Inside each corner of that silver tray are little decorative candies and nuts and things that you can add to your ice-cream. Which DH did, of course!! He loved it! I had a taste and it was great ice-cream. I don't think either of us ate the cotton candy, what a shame!
Hello, I have been lurking on the boards for probably over a year, off and on; last year when I planned a Disney vacation for my 1st grandchild who turned 2 and loves Disney as much as I do...I came back again to research a bit because she is turning 3 and I am taking her back again, we are both really excited to go. I will be traveling with my DH and the baby. I own a transcription service and work from home. This is my first subscribe and I just wanted to let you know how much I have enjoyed your adventures in dining and vacationing. I enjoyed this one so much I read your first posting through and actually had tears in my eyes when reading about your proposal! Your writing made me go get popcorn to eat while reading, made me laugh out loud on many occasions where my family is thinking I am going batty spending too much time working and really touched me. This board is just wonderful and I feel like you all are friends here. Keep up the great posts! I am going to read the last thread from you...then don't know how to pass my time between listening to garbled dictations and answering my phone, but this has been a blast and made me jump out of bed every morning with a smile on my face!! I had more posts to read!!!
Just wanted to say thank you very much for taking the time to share with us in such a way where we feel like we are right there with you.
Wow I am laughing at myself because I just spent way too long reading this whole review, and I am not even planning a trip to WDW any time soon! Haha. But great job, you made me wish we could go back now to try all of this yummy food. I am glad you had such a nice trip and thanks for all of the great reviews!
Thanks for the reviews, they're awesome! Can't wait to hear about Boma breakfast. I scheduled that for our trip in May and am anxious to hear how it is.

We really enjoyed Kona for dinner, breakfast not so much but I think that's b/c all I kept hearing about was Tonga Toast and we really didnt like the Tonga Toast too much so that wreaked that meal. But dinnner was very good and we stayed at Poly so it was soooo close
I felt the same way about Kona! The service is okay (they do their job, but I haven't ever had people go over and above.) It does feel like a typical hotel cafe, but the food is wonderful!

We always do a TS breakfast and a TS dinner and we don't eat much inbetween, just a light snack. I find if you do a sit down lunch and a sit down dinner, its too much food in a short time. So I would suggest doing CM for breakfast since you are going to 1900 Park Fare for dinner! (one of my fave dinners
Thanks for your review of Kona, as we are trying it for the first time in June.
Quick question about your Kona entree. Were the shrimp fried?
Thanks,
penny
This thread is absolutely terrific!!! Thanks so much! The family will be going to a few of these places when we are there! Not I am even more excited!!!
My girls are so jealous that your DH got to eat this...and they just can't understand why neither of you ate the cotton candy. Cotton candy is sacred in kid-dom. Especially when they have a mean mom who won't let them eat it very often!
I just did a marathon read of your whole review!
I am thoroughly enjoying it and finding it very helpful. For our next trip I had wanted to try Grand Floridian Cafe and Ohana, and possibly CRT if we can get it. I was happy to see you reviewing them!
LOVED the photos of Cindy with those 2 little girls...so cute!

OMG after reading your report.... I think I'm going to have to upgrade to Deluxe Dining in Sept (If of course they offer the free dining!).... I'm so craving every single food picture you posted... seriously!
Welcome!!! Beware.....it's addicting....
Overall, we weren't really impressed with Boma for breakfast. But then, maybe we were just too full and sick of food to really enjoy it?! We love Boma for dinner, but I don't think we'd do breakfast there again. The food just wasn't as fresh or as tasty as I'd hoped. It wasn't terrible, just not fantastic either!
