Sheryl - I had the snapper too and thought it was amazing. Loving your reviews, keep em comin!!

 

[shovan]

Thanks everyone!!

oybolshoi, Try it, you'll like it!! I've been going back reading your review from the your Oct. trip! Love your writing, so funny!!!

Kathy, All I have left is the dessert from FF! It was our last table service meal!


I did forget to mention, that after noticing the Champagne Flight on the Wine List, I ordered it. ( I gave my DH my glass of Coppollo Merlot.)

The Champagne Flight had three 3oz glasses of Champagnes. Although Chris was very generous when pouring! I had Iron Horse Fairy Tale Cuvee '02, Veuve Cliquot Ponsardin "99 and Taittinger La Francaise Brut N.V. . The Iron Horse was just okay, but of course I loved the Taittinger and the Veuve Cliquot!!!! I was having a very happy dining experience!!

First of all, thanks for the compliment - sometimes it's hard to tell if my sense of humor translates in writing, you know what I mean?

Secondly, Flying Fish has a Champagne Flight? I am so there...not even interested in the food any longer!

We're going to be at F&W from 10/13 - 10/22...maybe we'll see you around? If you haven't tried the F&W Festival yet you are in for a treat.

I hope the Champagne Flight wasn't the only reason I enjoyed the food so much at FF!

Our first visit for F&W was '06. We LOVED it! We'll be there Oct 20-25, so maybe we will see y'all there! DH & I were just discussing & planning another F&W trip for '08!

Here we are enjoying the wine at '06 Party for the Senses!

FLYING FISH DESSERTS!

We decided to share desserts, since we were all so full! But we just had to try some!

DH & I chose the Warm Valrhona Chocolate Galette. This was served very delicious dark chocolate sauce on the cake. On top of that is the chocolate gelato. Finally it was topped with a sail shaped cookie. The cookie tasted similar to a fortune cookie. The cake or Galette was served very warm & the gelato had started to melt down the cake. This was a very intense rich cake with the Valrhona Sauce & the Chocolate Gelato a true Chocolate Lover's Dream! For me, that's heaven! It doesn't get any better than that!

The other FF Dessert

Brother & Sister In Law chose the Warm Apple Almond Tart. This was served with cinnamon ice cream on the side. This was also served very warm. The top of the tart had nuts was nicely crispy, crunchy. Inside it had large pieces of the warm apples mixed in with a caramel sauce. The cinnamon ice cream went with this great! According the BIL & SIL anyway! They raved over this dessert. Loved it! I didn't taste it & I was too enthralled in my Chocolate Galette!

And so we come to the end of a wonderful meal. We took our time ordering, trying appetizers, wating to see how large each one was & making decisions as they came out. Our server Chris was very good, informed & didn't rush us one bit. The area of the restaurant we were seated in was so nice, secluded and quiet. ( It's the very back of the restaurant, off the main dining room.)

I don't know if any of you are wondering why I haven't mentioned what my niece had? Or how we managed such a long, leisurely meal with a 4 year old along?

HERE'S THE REASON!

Yes, she slept through the ENTIRE MEAL! She did not wake up until we walked out of the restaurant! When the cold air hit her, she popped up & asked when we were going to eat! We told her we were just going to go back to our room & she could have the rest of her leftover Mickey Pasta. She was quite happy with that.

I can't say we were able to go back to room relaxed & soothed from all the food & drinks. She was feeling very refreshed & revved up for several hours!!

Just loved your reviews, some of the places we have talked about trying! We will be trying them on our next visit!! Thanks for sharing!!! Your lil princess is just as cute as can be!!
Thanks for sharing!!!

 

[kathymc]

great reviews thanks for sharing - Jiko was one of our favorite all time meals

hey did you ever notice the designs in the tablecloths at the Castle?

 

[TigerKat]

Excellent job on your reviews, Sheryl!! Your love for your princess was an added bonus throughout.

 

[shovan]

Thanks to everyone, I'm glad y'all have enjoyed my review!

Tigerkat & dwaddict, Thanks for indulging me and letting me show off how cute my niece is!!!

kathymc, You mean those fleur de lis tablecloths? Those are there all of the time? I thought it was something special they did just for us!!

I guess I really don't need to rate Flying Fish. I think everyone can tell that I'd have to give it 5 WHO DATS across the board!

It's going to be tough to decide on ADR's for our next trip. Skip FF & Jiko to try something new? Don't know if we'll be able to do that!

I wanted to finish up my review with a couple of pictures.

I just had to post the breakfast we had in our villa. I noticed the hidden Mickey in it, after I took the shot! My Brother-in-Law really cooked this up for himself & my DH.

What can I say, these Cajun Men just love grease!

And one final picture of what this trip was really all about!

My Niece very pleased with a kiss from Aurora!

Sheryl - after seeing the cajun breakfast pic DH will finally understand the meaning of food porn! He will be drooling.

You are so right! Out of all this great food, he'll probably like seeing this one again, most of all!

Love the hidden Mickey!!
