Best Thing I Ever Ate: Walt Disney World Edition
the Affordable Mouse

Last week we talked about the delicious delicacies that the Disneyland Resort has to offer so now we are hopping to the other side of the country to talk about it's sister parks at Walt Disney World. I will be skipping over Animal Kingdom due to the fact that a lot of things have changed since I was last there, and it looks like all my old favorites aren't sold there anymore, but still strap in because this will be a long list as we have to go through three parks and a couple other places. Keep in mind I was never able to check out all of the restaurants that the parks have to offer so if I skipped a popular favorite that I have probably never heard about let me know and I will add it to my list of foods that I need to try next time.

Magic Kingdom

1. Barbecue Slaw Dog

Last time we talked a lot about foods that you should share with friends when you really don't want to, well this is one that needs to be shared. Trust me I tried to attempt to eat this and made it half way through before sadly getting full. It's a hot dog stacked with sweet barbecue pulled pork, coleslaw, and just a drizzle of barbecue sauce on top. Ask for some of Disney's strange but delicious cheese sauce (named "the plastic cheese sauce" by fans) on the side to dip this into (this is a hot dog that is impossible to eat with your hands) and you are set until you make it out of main street and want some more that the park has to offer.

Where can you find it?: At Casey's Corner on Main Street USA

2. Be Our Guest

I mean I know putting a restaurant down doesn't count as a singular food but it's just one of those places you have to go to. It's like walking right into the movie "Beauty and the Beast" and I can proudly say I have been there during all three meal times, tried something off of each of their different meal menus, and eaten in the three different rooms (the "Happily Ever After Room", the Ballroom, and the West Wing). Sorry if that sounded like bragging but this place is just so cool I have to talk about it. Getting in can be a bit of a hassle but it's nothing compared to Cinderella's Royal Table (which I still have yet to eat at). The best time to go is during Lunch where a majority of it is just waiting in line as opposed to hunting down a reservation. My favorites for lunch are the Braised Pork (Coq Au Vin Style).

This is several tender pieces of pork that practically pull apart pieces of meat covered in a savory gravy placed on top of fluffy mashed potatoes with crisp but warm vegetables on the side. If only it came with some bread on the side and then it would be made even better. Of course after eating a main course though you can't leave without dessert. Sure there is the option of the Grey Stuff but I actually stray more towards the Strawberry and Cream Cheese Cupcake (which I have heard is Belle's favorite cupcake, but don't quote me on it).

It's so sweet and has the perfect combo of creaminess and fruit flavoring. Did I mention it has strawberry mousse filling? Now I want one!

Where can you find it?: In new Fantasyland, it's the castle on the top of the hill with the Gargoyles out front. Just don't touch the rose!

EPCOT

1. Plateau de fromages de France (Cheese Board)

It so simple, it's just cheese, but it's really good cheese at that! This little plate is a selection of different cheeses served with grapes and walnuts, You could probably down this whole plate by yourself if you were determined. No need to worry about having a lack of bread to cover with the cheese the restaurant offers side baguettes for you. Pair it with some good wine and be prepared to feel sophisticated while also indulging yourself.

Where can you find it?: Chefs de France in France

2. Cafe Glace

I'm usually not a fan of cold coffee but this has a very interesting taste to it. It's almost like a coffee float. I tried it with the hazelnut ice cream kind of making it taste a bit like Nutella and it was delicious!

Where can you find it?: L'Artisan des Glaces in France

3. Quattro Formaggi Pizza

As you can tell by now I like cheese. You know what else increases my love of cheese? Putting it on pizza. This is a four cheese pizza with hardly any sauce on it but you don't care after you bite into it. It's cooked in a pizza oven (which by the way has an awesome design)

and you can just taste, how real it is. I've never been to Italy but this has made me assume that this is exactly what it tastes like in it's homeland.

Where can you find it?: Via Napoli in Italy

4. Tutto Italia

This is just one of the restaurants where you're guaranteed that everything is going to taste amazing. If you love Italian food this is the place for you! It is a bit on the expensive side but you don't mind spending a bit for a good time with good food then this is a great place.

Where can you find it?: In Italy

5. School Bread

In my mind this is like a creamy version of those coconut custard buns you can get at Dim Sum Restaurants. It's nice and cold and so yummy. The bread does make it a bit of a challenge to cut into pieces when eating with a fork but it's worth it so you can cleanly get it all in one bite.

Where can you find it?:Kringla Bakeri Og Kafe in Norway

Hollywood Studios

1. The Original Fettuccine Alfredo

This one varies between being on and off the menu but when it's on the menu grab it while you can. The big highlight of it for me is the prosciutto chips on top adding a special crunch to the pasta. After eating this make sure to grab one of their trio dessert samples pick any of them and I assure you they will be delicious.

Where can you find it?: The Brown Derby Diner

Resorts

1. Trader Sam's

A bar that is entirely Adventureland themed. Don't let the word bar scare you away though if you have kids that you can't find a sitter for, it also serves non alcoholic themed drinks as well as "the Backside of water" water. What makes this place so special though? Well how about when you order an Uh Oa! you get to watch as a volcanic eruption occurs outside the windows. Every themed drink causes a reaction with the room around you. It's a super fun experience that you have to witness! There might be a bit of a wait but it's totally worth it.

Where can you find it?: Disney's Polynesian Village Resort

2. Hoop-Dee-Doo Musical Review

This one to me is like the true definition of dinner and a show. You get to enjoy yummy southern food and a hilarious/kickin' good time of a show that also interacts with its audience. It's definitely the thing to do if you have a big family. One of my favorites that you get to eat is the cornbread and butter I don't know what they're secret ingredient is but it's really addictive.

Where can you find it?: The Campsites at Disney's Fort Wilderness

Disney Springs

1. Gnocchi

This pasta! Oh this pasta! First of all the Nonna's Sunday Ragu is pure magic! It's like made with pixie dust and leprechaun gold, the point is it's delicious. If you are a lover of gnocchi this is made for you. Cover it is Parmesan cheese and it's perfect.

Where can you find it?: Portobello Country Italian Trattoria

Sorority

I remember my freshman year oh so well. I remember feeling terrified the night before orientation. The one thing that I dreaded the most was not the new people, the new environment, or even the academic pressure. I was dreading having to talk to sorority girls about Recruitment. I remember cutting off and avoiding any Rho Gamma/Panhellenic Officer that came my way during First Week. I looked at them like they had asked me to cut my arm off whenever they asked me if I wanted to rush. To be honest, I did not even know what rush was, but I knew that I did NOT want to be a part of it. To me, it was dumb. It was a waste of money. It was a waste of my time.

And guess what? I did not rush my freshman year. I spent the first half of my freshman year isolating myself from everyone on campus. I spent all of my time in the library, and then (since I was a commuter) went back home once my work was finished.

Tiana would no doubt be disappointed in the food our cafeteria has to offer.

And hopefully she would cook for everyone in her dorm.

She definitley would not take any 8:00 am classes because she would be up late baking and cleaning up the communal kitchen that are available in every dorm.
