I have to admit I'm disappointed in how few savory options there are vs sweets. Looks like I need to find some QS to hold me or hope for a last minute table somewhere. Or visit Canada a bunch of times....

Still can't wait! Esp for sven\olaf merch.
Will be there Saturday!!!

I am such a picky eater and honestly, there wasn’t anything I wanted/liked. I ended up getting nachos in Mexico!!!

I was there Sunday and I loved the Beef Bourguignon and the Cheese fondue in a bread bowl. Both were delicious. Dh had the pastrami sandwich and said it was just okay. He also tried the sushi tree and said it wasn’t very good sushi

I like the turkey one in American Adventure. Always a safe bet. I want to be adventurous and try something in Morocco this year too.

We like the turkey one also. I didn’t have it this year but I’ve had it in previous years

I am going to write up a dining report but thought I'd post some brief reviews here.

Loved the scallops from Canada, two medium sized pieces per order so I got two orders for myself since they weren't too expensive. A good mix of sweet and savory, scallops were well cooked (could be a bit more rare) with very minimal grit. Enjoyed the chutney and parsnip silk, it paired well with the scallops. Solid 4/5.

The beef bourguignon from Canada was just okay, it was soooo salty. I haven't had a lot of this dish before so I can't really compare it to anything. Lots of crunch in the veggies still which was appreciated. This was a large portion and could easily be a light meal with maybe one other thing like the scallops. I'd say 3/5.

The snickers-doodle from Canada was just so-so, like 2.5/5. It wasn't warm and the combo of cinnamon and snickers was kind of weird. The texture was good, a mix of crisp and soft cookie, but this needed to be warm to be good. It is huge and easily sharable. Wouldn't get again.

The soba from Japan was a surprise hit, the shrimp tempura was just like what you get from AYCE sushi places, still crisp so take it out of the broth and eat it first. Soba noodles aren't my favorite type usually but I enjoyed them in this dish. The dash broth tasted like soy-miso to me. Salty, but not any more so than your typical noodle soup. The fish cake was very thick cut and substantial. It's not a huge portion for the price but I would get this again. Solid 4/5.

The beef noodle soup from China was very mediocre. There were three good sized chunks of beef, very tender and good. The broth itself was rather bland, it had some Szechuan flavor but no spice. I kind of scraped open the peppers in it to give it a little more spice so avoid those if you're spice-averse and you can still enjoy the dish. The biggest disappointment was the noodles, which I think were a thin spaghetti. Beef noodle soup should have a thicker, starchier noodle so these noodles were quite flavorless. The portion is pretty large and though not super filling, is definitely bigger than the soba portion. Probably 2/5, would not get again.

The veggie spring rolls from China were good, if you've had Panda Express these are just like that. Pretty small, they were served nice and hot though they had a ton sitting there so I guess they could have been a bit fresher. There wasn't enough sauce and we wish it were on the side rather than poured on top. The sauce is like a sweet chili but with less spice. Nothing special, but they were good. Maybe 3.5/5.
