I sure hate to be negative all the time about Disney Dining, but I just can't help it with these cut backs. Right off the bat I noticed no peppered beef, no drunken chicken, no Peking duck, the very tasty eggplant dish is missing, and a couple of other beef, and chicken dishes I can't remember the names of. If anybody has the old menu still would you please post it.

Originally Posted By bobbelee9 Thank you Mr Pierce, that got me right there. I guess I meant honey not orange. Orange ginger is what I get locally, and I messed up the 2 names. That's what happens when I put in 10 1/2 hour days at work two days in a row. The honey sesame is in my Cooking With Mickey cookbook, but my husband doesn't like sesame seeds, I could probably use peanuts instead. Rats, now I'm getting hungry.

Originally Posted By davewasbaloo I wish that was all. I am tired of doing 14-16 hour days, what I wouldn't give for 10.5 hours. Back on topic, are those glass shades new, I don't remember them? I really like them, they are lovely.

Yeah, I'm weird.

Dave at your age my husband was putting in those kind of hours, and then some. But now we're 65 and I don't wanna put in 50 hour weeks, it cuts into my home computer time! Luckily I live 7 minutes from work.

Originally Posted By Spirit of 74 Nine Dragons has long had one of the most extensive menus at EPCOT, at least since the great menu purge of the mid-90s, But about two years ago they cut the offerings in half ... and it looks like they took that half and cut it in half again. Anyone else here old enough to recall when you got actual menus at Disney full serve locations ... the kind with pages? Just wondering ...
Originally Posted By ChiMike ^ I agree. It is simply without excuse. I can't argue with Supply & Demand. It's not these folks' fault that they don't know or remember what they are missing.

There just is no reason to support Disney or their participants as long as the dining system is so troublesome.
