I've had it in Brazil (it's standard on hotel breakfast buffets, and is great to grab a handful to take along for lunch), but it's hard to find elsewhere. It's so good that I make sure to try it any time I get the chance!

    Yet another dish from Vulcania Restaurant has been reviewed. Definitely better than the Fried Rice that I previously reviewed, but most dishes in Tokyo Disney are, so....

    I had it at the standard breakfast buffets in my hotels. I didn't stay anywhere overly fancy, so I think you should be able to get it nearly anywhere. I also saw some little kiosks selling them in the airports and other high-traffic areas

    A "spicy" dish that can be found in Vulcania Restaurant in Tokyo DisneySea. Why is the word "spicy" in inverted commas? Hmmmmmmm.....

    So my second favorite pancake place on Oahu is called Cinnamons. There original location is in Kailua, but they also have a second location in a hotel on Waikiki. The reason I bring this up is because they ALSO have two locations in Japan. One in Tokyo and one in Yokahama.

    They are known for their guava pancakes or red velvet pancakes. I prefer the red velvet, although it's a bit like eating cake for breakfast. My husband prefers the guava.

    So here's the link to their main website's locations page <a target="blank" rel="nofollow" href="http://www.cinnamons808.com/location-2/">http://www.cinnamons808.com/location-2/</a>

    and you can follow the links to the Tokyo or Yokohama websites.

    You say that like it's a bad thing! : )

    FerretAfros: Seriously... you will be able to handle it. "Spicy" to Tokyo Disney is like everything that comes out of Donald Trump's mouth. An illusion.

    In the mood for some Mexican food in Tokyo DisneySea? Lost River Delta is the place to go to for Mexican food, well, because it's the only choice you have. Here's a review of Yucatan Base Camp Grill in Lost River Delta.

    So true. Don't eat Mexican food in Europe, especially in Germany and Austria.

    I had the best Mexican food in Ohio, when I lived there. The restaurant was run by a Mexican family and we ate there nearly every week.

    For how easy it is to find in the US (and Mexico, obviously) and with regional differences, it's always surprising that it's not easier to find around the world. Then again, it's nearly impossible to find a good German/Austrian restaurant here, so I guess we have our problems too ; )

    Not many places in Tokyo Disney sells fish fillets or steaks. If you are a fan of fish, you might wanna take notes.

    Another food item from Sultan's Oasis. This time, I've decided to go with something sweet.
