This was a trip where I went against everything I stand for. I left home with not 1 PS. 
Despite no PSs, I ate very well and was able to get in at the places I wanted, when I wanted. I also tried a few new places which is another crazy thing for me. 
To top it off, this was a solo trip, so for some meals it was just me or I was with different people at different times.
And for the record I dont usually eat or drink like this at home. I was truly in vacation mode.
BOARDWALK BAKERY- I had eaten here once before, last year, and remembered DS had gotten donuts which I tried and thought were good. They sounded good to me this morning so I took a walk to the BW and went to the Bakery. There was no line when I arrived, probably around 9:00. Of course once I saw all the other items in the display case I couldnt make up my mind of what I wanted. Everything looked so good.
I finally went with my original instinct and got a vanilla frosted and a chocolate frosted donut. The one thing I forgot from before was how BIG these donuts are. 1 would have been enough but
they are so good I managed ok.
Once again BW Bakery donuts get a big thumbs up from me. I even like these better than Krispy Kreme(which I do really like).
COSMIC RAYS- We arrived at MK, before MVMCP began and since there wasnt much going on then we decided to grab a bite to eat. We picked Cosmic Rays mainly because it was the first place we came across. Here we had the basics, burgers & fries, and found them to be pretty good. They have a decent toppings bar too. I would eat here again if I were in the mood for a burger while in the MK.
TUBBIS- This 24 hour Buffeteria in the Dolphin comes in handy late at night. We were got here at about 2:00am, after we closed out Jellyrolls. We were the only customers in there and the CMs were friendly to us. Im sure people coming in at that hour keep their job exciting, LOL! My friends each had a Krispy Kreme donut, which I couldnt even think about eating at that point. They were fresh and warm at this time in the morning and they enjoyed them. We also split a pizza and that really it the spot. It was delicious and very filling. Then again, after a night at Jellyrolls, I'm sure anything would have been yummy. I would stop in here again if I were in the area and hungry.
Since this was a solo trip for me I hit a few more bars and clubs than I usually do with my family. I had the opportunity to test out a few specialty drinks so Ill give a quick review of those here.
PLEASURE ISLAND
-COMEDY WAREHOUSE- Here I had one of their signature drinks, the Loco Coco. It was not like anything I had every had before very yummy too. I believe it was made with a vanilla & chocolate Barcadi and dark crème de cocoa. I would make a point to go back there for that drink.
-ADVENTURERS CLUB- I had heard so much about their famous drink here, the Kungaloosh, that I just had to try one. Im not usually big on fruity drinks so I wasnt sure about this one. It wasnt overly fruity though, and I cant even tell you what was in it, but it was pretty good, and strong too. Be sure to get it with whipped cream on top.
SWAN
-Splash Terrace- I believe this is the name of the little pool bar out by the hot tub. If not, thats where I was. One day I tried a Banana Cabana which was very good. Another time I ordered a Frozen Mudslide which wasnt as good. It wasnt bad but almost had a coconut flavor to it. I wondered if the bartender hadnt fully washed out the blender before he made the drink. I didnt actually see if he used the right ingredients when he made it, but it definitely didnt taste like a usual Mudslide.
POLYNESIAN
-TAMBU LOUNGE- This is always one of my favorite spots in WDW. Its so relaxing, I love the Poly atmosphere, and the drinks arent too bad either. I had planned to visit here for 1 drink before going to MVMCP. When I arrived I sat at the bar and ordered a Frozen Mudslide. The bartender (I wish I had gotten his name as he was very good) said he hadnt made one in a while, but he would try. Well he did a very good job because it was delicious. It was so good, I ended up having another. I then got a phone call saying my friend was meeting me there not at MK like I had thought, so my 1 quick drink soon turned into 3. As you can tell, these were very good drinks. I cant wait to get back there.
Well, that pretty much sums up the eating and drinking from my trip and I cant say I had a bad meal. Any questions, fire away.

Glad to see you went to the Adventurer's Club, we just went last night and always love it.
