Hand down best chicken Cseasar salad I found was at the Mara which is the food court at Animal Kingdom Lodge. They make them up right there for you.. no prefab. The price is $6.99, meanwhile the chicken cseasar salad at the land ( another good choice ) is $12.99 as I recall. Mara gives you more chicken and salad. Ok, I also tried a few things over at Bongos! Incredible food. I had the cuban fried rice.... wonderful, cuban coffee!!!! Oh boy what a treat.

Their signature beef dish is a tamarind barbeque beef filet. It's a bit small, but it's so incredibly tasty that you don't care. They've recently added a world class sushi chef, and the sushi appetizers are the best I've ever tasted. My last meal there this past October I had one of the greatest waiters in my life. He was from the northeast, very knowledgeable, vary laid back. He saw that I was in no hurry, so I got to sip my wine while pondering my appetizer choices. I didn't even order my entre till about halfway through the sushi. Dinner took about 2 hours, and was just heaven! Not something you'd want to do with cranky kids, but for a tired ol' single guy like me it was perfection!

I thought it sounds very appealing. However, I confess I love the beer over at the Big River Grille and Brewing Company. Best beer on property as far as I'm concerned. I always get the Mahi Mahi cseasar salad. Its great!

Originally Posted By smedley I really loved the food at Boma, but my favourite would have to be fireworks seating at the California Grill, taking a glass of wine out to the balcony to watch the fireworks, an amazing open pumpkin lasagne... But the pudding oh my goodness, I had a valrhona cake that I would almost be willing to sell DH for
Originally Posted By NikkiLOVESMickey I'll let everyone know if have any magical meals when I go to WDW in less than three days!!!!! We have ADRs at 'Ohana (breakfast), The Plaza (lunch), 50s Prime Time (dinner), Garden Grill (lunch) and Sci-Fi (dinner).
Originally Posted By sun-n-fun Sounds like great places Nikki. Can't wait to hear what yo think of them. we are going again in Aug. and will be lokkign for places new to us. Next week we are going to Boma, Rainforest Cafe and Rose and Crown all for dinner. I've heard RandC isn't great, but I'm partial to the UK. Went to London in high school with my mom and step-dad, who is definately my "real dad" and who now has lung cancer and is doing very poorly. So I always have fond England thoughts as I walk through it in EPCOT.
Originally Posted By NikkiLOVESMickey sun-n-fun, I hope your dad gets well soon. I've never eaten at Rose and Crown before. We almost tried it two years ago on the spur of the moment but they were so crowded that evening that they stopped taking walk-ins.
Originally Posted By sun-n-fun Thanks for the good thought Nikki. I think we are at RandC monday or tuesday, I'll give ya my opinion when I return (UGH!!, I don't want ot think of returning yet!!)
Originally Posted By sun-n-fun We did R and C during Presidents day week. The food was pretty good. Not great. We probably won't go there again for a while, too many other places to try.

I must say Boma was GREAT and already have reservations there again for August.
