Loving your reviews! Everything at brunch looked AMAZING!!
Loving your reviews! I so want to take an adults only trip to eat at the places I don't dare take my kids!
Great writing and places to eat. Loving the "Posh Nosh" reference; Simon and Minty still rule as does his mother's Aga, LOL.
CG is our fav brunch on property and I try to set up arriving and departing WDW time to accommodate it so I get the love.
Just a head's up; the yeast cake with it's own station served with Bourbon or Grand Marnier is a variation on a baba rhum and I always save space for it.
I would like the crepes the next time I go just to compare them to the other dessert myself... I mean you could make a mistake and all, LOL.
The first time I went to CG, it was Grand Marnier crepes. This was SO much better! I hope that the next time we make it to the CG brunch, they have the Baba Rhum so my husband can try it.... and I can have more. Thanks for letting me know the real name!
Loving your pics at V+A! Definitely a meal to remember and worth every penny that will not be found in my will. Instead the family will get the memory that I had a good time spending their inheritance...oops . We opted out on the Wagyu beef enhancement when we went and gosh now ya went and made me regret it.
I knew I should have talked my husband into V&A! That looked amazing. I am loving your review. Can't wait to hear more.
I'm guessing 26th anniversary trip. Lol. And I graduate college next year. Perfect time!There is still time to make a reservation right? Or an excuse for 26th anniversary trip!
To be honest, I almost don't want to type the price here, even though you can look it up. It always annoys me with DIS commentators make judgey mcjudgerson comments like they would never pay that much, it is as much as their mortgage, yada yada. Was this a lot of money? Yes. Was it worth it? In MY eyes, YES. Everything was incredible and it was not just a meal, but an experience that I greatly appreciated. I have worked hard all my life and spend so much time doing for others and not myself, so I was happy to do something for ME.
YOU GO!!!!!
It is YOUR money to do with it what you want!!
Sounds like it was a great experience, everyone should indulge once in their lifetime, our food experience, I don't call it a "meal" as it is much, much more! Out first experience was at the Bellagio in Las Vegas, 9 course meal, and took roughly about 3 hours with that magic crumb picker upper.......was very expensive but it was probably 19 years ago, when they first opened up, I honestly dont remember the name but it was a Michael Mina, Michelin star chef restaurant and still remember it, so glad you enjoyed it, keep the review coming, thanks!!!
So glad you had a wonderful experience at V&A. Everything looked fabulous! I have always wanted to go, maybe one day. Thanks for sharing your pictures.
Wonderful review and pics of V&A. Thank you so much for sharing your "dream dinner."
Kudos for going out of your comfort zone and trying new things. So many people think they don't like certain ingredients, but in many cases it's because they never had GOOD fish/mushrooms/game/whatever.
I'm glad to see they still have the wild turbot w/ capers and lemon. I've had it several times over the years and it's always "goosebumps good."
Fun fact: the oysters in your first course were replaced with salsify, a root vegetable also known as "oyster plant." Very clever substitution!
I love how they get all of the little service details just right. That level of perfection is getting pretty rare these days.
Great reviews! V&A looks like a dream meal, I would be so sad to get full!
