Thanks Pumba- 'Ohana was definitely our best meal of the trip! (And I know I have to finish up- i'ts been over 3 months!! )thanks again for your review on Ohana..we went there the first week of May and we were HUNGRY...thank goodness...we had a great wait person Cathy was her name and she kept on bringing the meat and the shrimp...the meat was fork tender..and you are right..just waiting for that DESSERT...omgoodness it was beyond words...just the groan can be heard around the world...thanks again for your reviews
Thanks, I'm so glad you have the time to catch up! Especially since I haven't been updating lately! The pictures were just my plain old phone but I tried really hard to get them to look goodThanks for all your reviews. I'm still just getting caught up. Love the food pics! (They look like they were taken with the good camera to me.)
Whaaaat you saw us at Pop?? That's too cool!!!!Really enjoying your reviews and looking forward to more! We were at Pop at the same time as you and I'm positive I saw you and your sister in the food court. It's a small world after all.
Now you'll probably have that song in your head all day. You're welcome.
Jerusalem Gal......... again thanks for your reviews...
I'm so happy to have you!!!I just found your reviews and I love them!
You are so much fun! And I love your review style.
Thanks for sharing!
So glad to have you here! I haven't updated in nearly a month but you're right on time because I just sat down to (finally!) write another post!!!Wow! Loved your story telling and the dining reviews.
I just binge-read it in preparation for my August trip.
I need to try that picnic burger. We're going to Ohana and I can't wait!
Eta to add- you and Shira are so cute!
I'm not a big fan of pesto but we're on ok terms. (Hi pesto!)
Yes! Shrimp Scampi! Yum!!!Glad to see you liked Tony's...we are in the minority here that also like Tony's!!! And the Shrimp Scampi is my favorite there!!!
Oh, and apple juice is covered on the DDP but none of the juices are available with free refills...that is only for soft drinks/tea/coffee kind of things.
I am loving your dining report!
I've heard a lot about the zucchini fries- that's probably what got me to splurge on them. And they really were good but it was a fairly small portion for a price tag I wouldn't pay again. (Although, who knows )The only things we have consistently enjoyed at Tony's over the years are the zucchini fries and the pistachio crème brulee. Very sad to hear it is no longer on the menu. I love the theming of the restaurant but we have had very mixed leaning towards the negative experiences over the years.
I agree about the pot roast mac & cheese. We tried it once, enjoyed about 1/3 of it and that was enough for us.
Looking forward to more!
So glad you're here!I am so glad to have found your reviews!...too adorable! And I was so happy to see that I am not the only ones who thinks the bread at OHANA is not mouth worthy! (I wish they had the Kona bread next door! ...THAT is some yummy bread!)
Too much powdered sugar for my taste, by the way. I would have blown everything off before eating..
"Breaded seasoned Zucchini with creamy Sun-dried Tomato Dressing for dipping"
These were obviously made fresh and were delicious.
Our server was also shocked when she refused some Parmesan cheese on top
I had to pose with it
It was like being Fred Flintstone
Before having any food, we walked around through some stores first. (I mean, we're here to eat, but we're also here to shop!)
I was so tempted to buy this but I knew I'd have no use for them- they'd just sit around, packaged, waiting for me to open them..
Too much powdered sugar for my taste, by the way.
All in all- a surprising disappointment.
It was like being Fred Flintstone
My next post (hopefully soon) will be at Disney Springs!
Wolfgang Puck Express, T-Rex and a short stop at Ghirardelli!
Yeah, the mac and cheese looked more sophisticated at WPE. I'm gonna have to try it next time! (Oh gosh, it seems "next time" will be a culinary trip and I won't have any time for rides or anything except eating! )Mmmmm - that pizza from WPE looks delicious! I've been wanting to try a pizza there but I always order the Mac n cheese which is amazing and MUCH better than Friar's Nook!!
I was home for the holiday so I made sure to find time!You were on a roll yesterday. weren't you?
Glad to see you had some time to update.
I blow the sugar off my sufganiyot too. Way too muchI agree, looks like the cake is drowning in all that sugar. I mean, I love my sugar and all but even that is way too much
Can't waitHard to resist deep fried veggies. I definitely know how that feels like (but you'll have to wait till I get to that in my DR)!
I'm glad you stayed true to yourself. It's really hard to change something as big as that and even harder to do it in front of other people who you know might not approve..This reminds me of a NY visit a few years ago, several months after I became non-observant. We went to an Italian restaurant in Manhattan for a siblings dinner. Now although they eat in non-kosher restaurants, they do not eat any meat or shellfish. But the pasta with meat sauce was calling my name so I just had to get it (I was a little hesitant but my BIL said to just go for it if that's what I wanted). When the server came with the parmesan of course I said YES! And even asked for extra. The looks of shock from my siblings though.....
Yes, I agree! I think they looked nicer in the packaging..Cool! I'd be more tempted if they had pics of the actual characters on them.
It was excellent!!!! My next time there- another pizza, the mac and cheese, and maybe the bacon wrapped meatloaf cos that looked great tooThis is the 2nd report I read this week that mentioned how great the BBQ pizza was. Looks sooo good!
I think maybe if you want to share it with a bunch of people it would be good. A few bites weren't bad, but as a meal it was too much. Also, even though I don't remember seeing it on their menu, I'd check if they have a smaller sized portion.You're not the first bad review of the pot roast mac n cheese I read . I had been looking forward to this as a snack during our upcoming trip, btu now I'm not so sure.
Awesome! Soon I hope. It was great!Oh, yeah! We have an ADR at T-Rex so I can't wait to hear about your experience there.
