My bad!

Actually, if you really want to get technical, this photo should have been posted on Saturday, during the week we were … Continue reading "My bad!"

Breakfast of Champions

Posted on by Barrie Brewer
Copyright © 2008 Barrie Brewer, Nikon D50, 18-200VR, 1/25s shutter, f5 I had such a hard time finding a picture of food for Pic of the Week this week. It seems that although I can definitely appreciate a good meal, I’m not drawn to photographing it. I have thousands of photos from Walt Disney World, … Continue reading "Breakfast of Champions"

Trail’s End Lunch Menu — Revised

Posted on by Jack Spence
Back in August, I reported that the Trail’s End lunch buffet had stopped serving “hot” entrees in favor of “make your own” sandwiches. I actually liked this change, but apparently I was in the minority – a very small minority. It seems that Disney received numerous complaints about this scaled-back menu. Many guests quipped, “If … Continue reading "Trail’s End Lunch Menu — Revised"

WDW Food and Wine Festival Week – Day 2

Day 2 of our Food and Wine Festival trip. We got a late start this morning – still on west coast time. I’m actually trying to STAY on west coast time until after the Tower of Terror 13K race Saturday night – my body will be much happier (ok, so “happier” isn’t really the right … Continue reading "WDW Food and Wine Festival Week – Day 2"

Ghirardelli – Downtown Disney Marketplace

Posted on by Jack Spence
I used to live in San Francisco. My apartment was within easy walking distance of Ghirardelli Square. Occasionally I would take the cable car home from work and stop by Ghirardelli for an ice cream cone before heading home. Or walk over on a foggy Sunday morning for a steaming cup of hot chocolate. I … Continue reading "Ghirardelli – Downtown Disney Marketplace"

Vegan Dining at Walt Disney World

Posted on by AllEars
The Bashful Vegan Hi! My name is Kitty, and I’m a vegan. I’m also terribly, seriously, majorly bashful which is not very convenient when you’re a vegan. It’s near impossible to eat out as a vegan without attracting some attention, or at the very least, getting a confused look from a server. All of which … Continue reading "Vegan Dining at Walt Disney World"
