Jeanne's Eat Everywhere in the World...

[MayBWeRMnt2B]

Just wanted to let everyone know we went to El Pirita y El Perico for lunch today! It was delicious! Ryan loved it! He thought the tacos were amazing. He doesn't even like hard tacos, but he loved the tacos and thought it was great!

They now offer yellow rice with the two hard tacos and it was AMAZING!!! I was highly impressed with the rice! I had a taco salad. Yummy yummy!

Of course, that turned into our conversations about Disney (we critique anything and everything). Basically we figured it out that the reason its not open a lot is because its one of the options that they CAN close easily, and it is kinda in a hidden area. If you close it, people may not realize it is closed! I love being able to discuss with him!

We then went to "create our own mickey ears!" Uhm Hello, I am TOTALLY making bride ears when I get married, with matching groom ears (Is it wrong I really wanted to make them today?) Ryan made Sorcerer Mickey Ears (He has a thing for Mickey... he has a sorcerers mickey tattoo on his back). I made Wishes ears with the castle. I'll post a picture once I upload them!

Now we're home to get ready for dinner at Artist's Point at 5:50 and we may go to PI after! For some Adventuerer's Club time!

They offer yellow rice? Impressive! I don't see that in too many restaurants anywhere. I usually have to make that on my own at home.

Jeanne,
When you go to Coral Reef, you should surprise Ryan with personalized menus! Maybe you could go there on an anniversary or for his birthday! I will send you the email addy for the person that could help you out with the personalized menus. V&A can do them for you as well. For Coral Reef though, they will put photos of you both on the menu for you! They are great!

Personalized menus? How much extra is that? Can you send me the link too? Also, do they just have your names on it or what is it exactly? Which restaurants have it? Anyone have an example of one or know where I can see one online?

There is no extra charge. They can personalize with pictures and text. Here's an example I found:



Same person had the diver with a sign (again no extra charge):



To make arrangements, after you book your ADR, just call the Coral Reef directly at 407-560-6856. You need to talk to Debbie (the manager) to make the arrangements. She'll give you an e-mail address to send pictures and desired text to.

They only do a limited number of divers a day. But, even if they are completely booked you can still do the custom menus.

Artist's Point was amazing!!! I'll have a full report later once I have time, right now we're going to get lunch an then go to Epcot for Flower & Garden fun!

I can't wait to hear about Artist's Point. I have always wanted to go there. There are so many on your list I am dying to try.

[GalPal]

Artist Point is in my top 3 restaurants at WDW (along with Jiko and Narcoossees). Can't wait to hear what you had and what you thought!

I've never eaten there, do they just have beef taco's or can you get chicken/turkey in it?? Is there a fixin" bar or do they put on the toppings?

I love that idea, thanks for showing it

Soooo...did Ryan try the delicious Buffalo Sirloin!?!?

[MayBWeRMnt2B]

Well,

Ryan and I had a fun day of Tacos and creating our own ears! However, then, we went home, changed, and went to dinner at Artist's Point.

The dinner was AMAZING!

We got Spring Rolls for an appetizer which I was not a fan of. They had Venison in them. Which being from Wisconsin, I don't like. Ah well! I ordered the Cedar Plank Roasted Salmon. Ryan got the Buffalo sirloin Steak! The Buffalo was amazing!!! My Salmon was also!

We enjoyed just the restaurant. Ryan thought it was the most expensive place he had ever eaten, and it was also the most expensive meal a guy has ever bought me (yeah my ex was cheap). It was delicious!

We got a Lodge Fizz for a drink that we shared. Our waitress was very nice. She did treat us kinda eh because we looked young, but she wasn't bad.

For dessert, Ryan was stuffed as we ate both of our meals entirely, but I got the Berry Cobbler! It was Wild Blueberry Cobber and it was absolutely delicious!

Overall, I LOVED Artist's Point. I'd definitely go back! Although not very often, as it is expensive, and I like some of the other locations a bit better! However, I'm glad we went!









We will be crossing off another item on our dining list on April 8th! We are going to Flying Fish Cafe with my parents! I'm excited!!! :applause:

We have reservations for Jiko this Saturday night at AKL! I'm really excited for it.

So far, one of our favorite places to eat was the Concourse Steakhouse (RIP now!) It was a great meal, our waiter was amazing, and it was delicious!

brown Derby was also fun! We ate there for our 6 month anniversary! Our waiter was a bit slow, but the food was delicious!

And lastly, Narcoossee's was AMAZING! We ate there the night we got engaged, and it was an amazing meal and delicious! Our waiter was superb! I posted that in my trip planning thread, so I don't want to repeat the post!

Hopefully I'll have time to write a trip report about Jiko after we go!
