All Star Cafe Reopens at Disney’s Wide World of Sports

Posted on by Jack Spence
All Star Café Redesign When I heard that Disney was changing the All Star Café from a table service restaurant to a counter service restaurant, I was disappointed. I always enjoyed this spot. In fact, the first review I ever wrote for AllEars.net was for this eatery. However, I realize that it was a business … Continue reading "All Star Cafe Reopens at Disney’s Wide World of Sports"

Tusker House Restaurant

Posted on by Jack Spence
The first change you’ll notice about the new Tusker House Restaurant is that Disney has positioned the check-in over near the Dawa Bar and the entrance is now located behind the restaurant. This has its pluses and minuses. The plus, it can get crowded over near the Kusafiri Coffee Shop & Bakery (the old entrance). … Continue reading "Tusker House Restaurant"

Yak & Yeti Opening Day Review

Posted on by Jack Spence
I had heard that the Yak & Yeti restaurant in the Animal Kingdom was opening today. Since I had just been there a couple of days earlier and the construction walls were still up, I was a little dubious, but decided to check it out.

Windows on the second floor are clearly visible and I’m hoping this will be seating for either the full service or the counter service restaurants.

Free Dining, Pt 3: A Visit To Artist Point

Posted on by Andrea McKenna
Our final Free Dining Plan table service meal was at Artist Point, in the Wilderness Lodge. I had eaten there about 10 years ago as well, probably on the same trip as the San Angel Inn meal, and remembered being underwhelmed by the menu. I don’t really care for game meats, and their signature Cedar … Continue reading "Free Dining, Pt 3: A Visit To Artist Point"

Free Dining, Pt 1: A Flashback To The 50’s

Posted on by Andrea McKenna
Those of you who read my column regularly may have noticed that I do not care much for the Magic Your Way Dining Plan and believe that it will soon be the downfall of civilization as we know it. Well, OK, maybe it’s not quite that bad, but it certainly has caused dining at Disney’s … Continue reading "Free Dining, Pt 1: A Flashback To The 50’s"

Day 8 – Happy Birthday Carol

Posted on by Mike Scopa
Finally the day came when Carol could “legally” wear her “Happy Birthday” button. We decided to try something different today so we went to the dock to take the Riverboat Cruise to Downtown Disney, as mentioned on the WDW Today channel in our hotel room. The CM who was driving the boat asked us where … Continue reading "Day 8 – Happy Birthday Carol"
