My Disneyland dining reviews, with pictures

Halloween Foods, Treats, and Yummies with Figment, Continued...
Golden Horseshoe
Churro Sundae - Cookie Dough Ice Cream garnished with a Churro, Cajeta and Whipped Cream. Figment really liked this sundae last year and it was just as tasty this year!

Poison Apple Stein
This year's poison apple stein is purple...Figment's favorite color!

River Belle Terrace
River Belle Terrace is another one of Figment's favorite TS locations. It's pretty relaxed and low key.

Ribs with Mashed Potatoes and Cole Slaw. The ribs are always fall of the bone tender and very flavorful, but a little messy to eat.

Ribs with Tater Tots and Cole Slaw

Ribs with Tater Tots - Figment really likes the tater tots, especially when dipped in the BBQ sauce (he always asks for extra sauce).

Red Rose Taverne
Black Rose Dessert - Black Truffle Mousse with Raspberry Compote and crunchy center dusted with Edible Glitter. Figment also liked this dessert last year and it was still very good.

Award Wieners
Rest in Peace-Strami Dog - All-Beef Hot Dog topped with thinly-sliced Pastrami, Caramelized Onions, Pickles and Mustard Sauce. Figgy liked this hot dog with lots of yummy stuff on top.

Rest in Peace-Strami Fries - Filmstrip Fries topped with thinly-sliced Pastrami, Caramelized Onions, Pickles and Mustard Sauce. This was an interesting combination. Figment liked the toppings, but the fries were kind of overwhelming (this dish might have worked better with regular or thin cut fries).

Hollywood Lounge
My Bugs! My Bugs! - Limeade Slush with Cherry Syrup and Gummy Worms. The drink was pretty tart, but was nice and refreshing on a hot day. Just note that the gummy worms tend to want to fall into the drink and get hard!

Figment’s Halloween Happenings (September 2018), Continued...
(snip)

Refreshment Corner, Lunch
Halloween Hot Dog - Premium Hot Dog topped with Spicy Meatballs, Cheese Sauce, and Oven-roasted Tomatoes, served with a Small Bag of Chips. The hot dog and meatballs had good flavor, but there was to much bread (a regular hot dog bun would have been better).

Hey @figment_jii can you tell me where I can look up is the hot dog is beef or a blend of beef/pork?
 


Our arrival day we just ate at Jazz Kitchen express. We ordered the family size beignets too. That might have been too much, but we ate them the next day too. Mostly fried stuff but everyone was happy. Fries were really good. Kids loved the chicken bites. Hubby wasn't a big fan of the sloppy pork sandwich, but he ate it with a fork.IMG_20191013_124956431.jpgIMG_20191013_124959223.jpgIMG_20191013_125001625_HDR.jpgIMG_20191013_124919147.jpg
 
Our arrival night we did La Brea Cafe for dinner. We had reservations. I feel it's pricey, of course. Kids chicken tenders, spaghetti and meatball, mahi mahi sandwich, and Spicy BBQ chicken sandwich (plain). The pesto pasta salad was good. The dinner rolls were ok too. I was expecting better tasting bread from the bakery, but it was all ok.

Our first park day we did Starbucks mobile order for breakfast. Then came back to the hotel to rest. We ate at Earl of Sandwich for lunch. Yum and affordable. Mac n cheese was delicious, kids grilled cheese was fine, and hubby and I split the Philly steak and cheese special. I could have eaten one by myself but it was filling enough and saved room for a leftover beignet. ☺️IMG_20191014_121012744.jpgIMG_20191014_121001047.jpgIMG_20191014_120955212.jpgIMG_20191014_121034203.jpg
 


Dinner our first park night we ate at the French Market. My picky 16 year old had a hard time on what to order here. So he wasn't pleased. He ordered the kids chicken and rice. It was very bland, small, like for a toddler. He got an additional fruit plate as well. My 12 year old ordered the Mac n cheese and liked it. Husband got the French dip without the horseradish. I ordered the New Orleans salad with blue cheese dressing. I wish there were more offerings for picky eaters that aren't little kids. We made the best of it. The jazz band was fun to watch while we ate. IMG_20191014_172407219.jpgIMG_20191014_172404628.jpgIMG_20191014_173830655.jpgIMG_20191014_172356809.jpgIMG_20191014_172401796_BURST000_COVER_TOP.jpg
 
Later that night we ordered this seasonal Churro Sundae from the Golden Horseshoe. The kids were happy to dig into this one. We all shared. 🙂IMG_20191014_184657716.jpgIMG_20191014_184651561.jpg
 
We hoped over to California Adventure and had lunch at Cocina Cucamonga Mexican Grill. We thought this was really good! Fish tacos, Cocina chicken bowl, kids quesadilla and kids steak taco. Everyone was pleased. Not pictured but we also ordered the chips and guacamole.IMG_20191015_121222064.jpgIMG_20191015_121215957.jpgIMG_20191015_121219063.jpgIMG_20191015_121224730.jpg
 
Do the restaurants allow adults to order and eat kids meals? My 15 year old can hardly ever finish an adult meal. 🍪
 
We hoped back over to Disneyland and had dinner at Cafe Orleans. We ordered the pommes frites. Yum! Shrimp and grits. I thought this was pretty good. Hubby got the steak and potatoes. He's not a fan of brussel sprouts so he wished he asked for a different veggie, but didn't say anything. He thought the steak was good; probably a strip steak. Picky 16 year old ordered the Monte Cristo sandwich without the powdered sugar. He liked it! Kids Mac n cheese was ordered again with fruit only.IMG_20191015_171958927.jpgIMG_20191015_171953672.jpgIMG_20191015_170911638.jpgIMG_20191015_171945450.jpgIMG_20191015_171942287.jpg
 
We also had 6:30 pm reservations for Oga's Cantina so we had to splurge on those expensive drinks. It was a good experience I guess. Seems like they can afford to add bar stools at the bar. 😕 My kids had the Blue Bantha, it's milk but also juice like. The cookie was good but they didn't finish the drink. The 16 year old drank the Hyperdrive Punch, Powerade like drink. He liked it. I wanted the Bespin Fizz but the were out of it. 🤷‍♀️ So I got the Outer Rum, like a margarita. It was strong and good. Hubby got the Bad Motivator IPA. Not bad. The music was loud and droid DJ was entertaining.IMG_20191015_183614361.jpgIMG_20191015_183640599.jpg

The next day we went to Flo's V8 Cafe for breakfast. We ordered the Chicken tamale, American Breakfast, Kids Waffle and American Breakfast. Everyone was happy with their meals, but the kids wanted real bacon instead of turkey bacon. I wondered if we would have asked if they would have swapped it?IMG_20191016_083420269_BURST001.jpgIMG_20191016_083417723.jpg
IMG_20191016_083414928.jpgIMG_20191016_083411543.jpg?
 
Then we hopped over to Disneyland for lunch at Carnation Cafe. I was so glad I made lunch reservations. I saw several walk ups turned away. It was a hot day, we sat outside in the back, under some shade. We ordered the Fried Pickles to start. These were really crisp and good and satisfied our immediate hunger. I got the Romaine Salad with Shrimp. This was very good and refreshing. Husband ordered the Sourdough Bacon-Cheese Melt with fruit. He liked this too, but a bit greasy. 16 year old was happy to order the Roasted Turkey Sandwich plain. He liked it! He also really liked the pomegranate lemonade. Finally my 12 year old was happy to order a kids cheeseburger with fries. We really liked the Carnation Cafe. We would go here again!IMG_20191016_122419093.jpgIMG_20191016_120548459_HDR.jpgIMG_20191016_124644718.jpgIMG_20191016_124635423.jpgIMG_20191016_124652289.jpgIMG_20191016_124621472.jpg
