The Diamond Horseshoe in the Magic Kingdom is currently serving lunch from 11am to 4pm during the busy President’s week. Premade sandwiches, a Caesar Salad, and drinks are available. I asked a cast member if this was a permanent arrangement and I was told that this venue would be used occasionally throughout the year during … Continue reading "Diamond Horseshoe"

Pizzafari

Posted on by Jack Spence
I ate at the Pizzafari restaurant in the Animal Kingdom January 10th. When I got to my table I noticed a small plastic card on the tray along with my order. The card featured Timon and Pumba with the inscription, “Do not feed the animals. Your yummies are not good for our tummies.” I thought … Continue reading "Pizzafari"

Epcot Changes

Posted on by Jack Spence
Over the last several years, Disney has tried several concepts at Epcot to best implement baggage check as you enter the park. It appears that they have finally hit upon a design that works. Temporary stanchions have been replaced with stainless steel fences. Even the flowerbeds now have security fences running through them. This looks … Continue reading "Epcot Changes"

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. My friend Donald and I arrived a little before 11am. … Continue reading "Yak & Yeti Opening Day Review"

Yak & Yeti Restaurant

Posted on by Jack Spence
Construction continues on the Yak & Yeti Restaurant in the Animal Kingdom. Instead of bricks, mortar, and plywood, Asian themeing is starting to become apparent. 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. The building site is starting … Continue reading "Yak & Yeti Restaurant"

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"
