Pressed Pennies - Food on a Budget

20:56:20 [BetsyAnn] Hey SuzyQ

20:56:47 [suzyq] ALoha BetsyAnn!

20:57:16 [BetsyAnn] Aloha

20:57:19 [Barbd] Hi

20:57:25 [Barbd] I saw you two here

20:57:32 [suzyq] My computer is slow tonight (so what else is new) so my response time may take a few seconds ;)

20:57:44 [BetsyAnn] Hey Barb

20:57:44 [suzyq] Hey Barb! Gotta do dinner sometime soon!

20:57:59 [suzyq] Hi Cheri!!

20:58:13 [LimeGreenC] hello girlies

20:58:15 [Barbd] Suzy I have to come over to see the pictures from Tahitti

20:58:15 [BetsyAnn] Hey LG!

20:58:22 [Barbd] hi lg

20:58:51 [suzyq] We'd love to share our pics with you - and see your anniversary/hurricane footage!

20:59:02 [suzyq] You'll never guess what I think we brought home from Tahiti

20:59:16 [LimeGreenC] I wanna gues

20:59:16 [Barbd] That was quite a trip, lol I decided I dont want to move to FLorida anymore

20:59:35 [suzyq] OK, Cheri - what's your guess

20:59:38 [Barbd] What did you bring home?

20:59:43 [LimeGreenC] a baby

20:59:49 [Barbd] Is it alive?

21:00:00 [suzyq] Nope! (but good guess, though!) ;) ;)

21:00:06 [BetsyAnn] do tell

21:00:12 [Barbd] a baby?

21:00:12 [suzyq] Yes - it IS (still) alaive

21:00:14 [LimeGreenC] shoot

21:00:17 [suzyq] alive

21:00:31 [LimeGreenC] a crab?

21:00:46 [Barbd] Well maybe we will hear in a month or so you are expecting in 8 monre months ;)

21:00:52 [suzyq] I think that we brought home an ugly, not-so-small cockroach!!!

21:00:55 [LimeGreenC] the Tahiti epizooda

21:01:08 [LimeGreenC] ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww

21:01:13 [Barbd] At least they cant really live here right?

21:01:25 [LimeGreenC] Hey Bookwood

21:01:28 [suzyq] I was putting away some clothes from our last suitcase and guess who is crawling around - eeeeeK!!

21:01:28 [BetsyAnn] yuck

21:01:32 [Barbd] I use to see them a lot in Arizona but you rarely hear of roaches in Washington

21:01:38 [BetsyAnn] Hey Bookwood

21:01:50 [suzyq] Well, there are roaches in the NW, but this one has REALLY long legs - DOUBLE Eeeeeeeek!

21:01:52 [Barbd] Hi Bookwood

21:01:56 [suzyq] Hi Bookwood - welcome!

21:02:05 [LimeGreenC] is it the hissing kind like they have on Fear Factor?

21:02:18 [Bookwood] Hi everyone~

21:02:23 [Barbd] Is Tahitti pretty much civilized like citoes and towns?

21:02:24 [suzyq] I don't think this one has enough energy to hiss

21:03:03 [suzyq] Tahiti proper (the main island) has a city - with a McDonalds and all. But, the Tahitian Islands (Bora Bora, Moorea, etc) are very rural.

21:03:08 [LimeGreenC] I think you are supposed to be taxed on any roaches you bring back :D

21:03:32 [Barbd] :) :p 8)

21:03:40 [Barbd] Hi Miss B

21:03:42 [suzyq] The "villages" consist of maybe a little grocer, a school for all ages on the island, and a restaurant or two out of someone's home.

21:03:44 [MissBianca] I hope you're talking about insects

21:03:47 [suzyq] MissB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

21:03:55 [Bookwood] Yeh did you declare it coming back into the country?? Hi miss B

21:03:58 [BetsyAnn] Hey Miss B

21:04:03 [Barbd] Tahitian Insects Miss B

21:04:10 [LimeGreenC] Hey MissB!

21:04:16 [MissBianca] eeek!

21:04:20 [MissBianca] Hi all

21:04:20 [suzyq] LOL, Bookwood! He was a stow-away!

21:04:35 [Bookwood] Because foreign insects are all the rage these days LOL

21:04:57 [Barbd] so much for Homeland security, you brought a foreigner home

21:04:59 [suzyq] Dis-GUS-Ting!!

21:05:08 [suzyq] Hello BriarRose!!

21:05:08 [LimeGreenC] LOl Bookwood

21:05:09 [MissBianca] definitely

21:05:12 [Barbd] Hi Briar Rose

21:05:15 [LimeGreenC] Hey BriarRose

21:05:17 [MissBianca] Hi, BriarRose

21:05:20 [Bookwood] Hi BriarRose

21:05:25 [BriarRose] hi gang

21:05:41 [BetsyAnn] Hey Briar Rose

21:05:46 [BriarRose] or should i say harem

21:05:47 [LimeGreenC] LOL Barb

21:05:48 [suzyq] So are you kids game for chatting a bit on FOOD?! (one of my FAVORITE subjects - probably why I decided I like cruising so much)

21:06:07 [Bookwood] He must have been pretty hardy ro survive the temperatures in the luggage compartment

21:06:13 [LimeGreenC] LOL BriarRose, I want to be in a harem just so I can get a belly button ring :D

21:06:17 [MissBianca] I'm eating vicariously through chats and the menus at AllEarsNet

21:06:24 [LimeGreenC] I'm ready Suzy

21:06:27 [MissBianca] Bookwood, dogs and cats can do that, remember

21:06:40 [BetsyAnn] Did some one say FOOD!

21:07:04 [BriarRose] food - snacking our way through WDW LOL

21:07:07 [suzyq] Great!

21:07:11 [Barbd] food works for me

21:07:13 [Bookwood] No food here too much already today! LOL

21:07:24 [suzyq] This is kind of a not-so-free for all chat.

21:07:39 [Barbd] tomorrow I revisit healthy eating today I can snack right

21:07:49 [suzyq] Does anyone have any nagging questions/thoughts on the WDW food subject or food budgets?

21:07:57 [MissBianca] you go, Barb!

21:08:24 [suzyq] Barb, you can *virtually* eat ALL you like tonight! BestyAnn will provide us with a "Drink of the Day"

21:08:38 [Barbd] k

21:08:43 [LimeGreenC] I've been holding on to my quick and casual vouchers, and am trying to figure out the best places to use them in the theme parks

21:08:46 [BriarRose] pass them around BA

21:09:00 [suzyq] Ahhhh - the Q&C Vouchers!

21:09:02 [MissBianca] I want to know more about eating at the Studios and AK...I keep just having snacks there

21:09:10 [Barbd] I am so bumbed I missed out on eating at Bomas because my PS was 6PM Aug 13th, right smack in the middle of the hurricane

21:09:23 [MissBianca] aw, Barb!

21:09:29 [suzyq] I've used QC at Pecos Bills (good enough value, but I don't like the dessert)

21:09:36 [MissBianca] Maybe we should all visit the Boma menu and order up some dinner!

21:09:42 [LimeGreenC] MissB, I looked at the Flame Tree BBQ menu and it looks good and might work for the Q&C voucher

21:09:49 [Barbd] Ak I have eatend lunh there a few times. we found a fast food place that serves pretty good and healthy food and its a good price

21:09:49 [BriarRose] we love to eat in Sci Fi MissB

21:10:01 [suzyq] Both great subject!

21:10:12 [Bookwood] I have one voucher that needs to be used I think in October from our tripin July if someone would like it!

21:10:15 [suzyq] Has anyone used QC anywhere in the parks?

21:10:20 [LimeGreenC] I'll look at the prices on Pecos Bill, that might work

21:10:23 [Barbd] I cant remember the name of it but its really good chickena nd its plenty to feed two people too

21:10:45 [LimeGreenC] Hi Brer! Long time no chat!

21:10:49 [suzyq] Hello Brer - welcome to our WDW Budgeting to EAT chat!

21:10:57 [LimeGreenC] What a great offer Bookwood

21:11:01 [BriarRose] hi brer

21:11:01 [MissBianca] I'm pretty sure I'm going to be a cheap date for a long time, Barb ;)

21:11:03 [Barbd] How much do the QC vouchers cost to get? Doesnt that matter when choosing where to use them?

21:11:15 [brer] wow. 2 of my fav topics :)

21:11:18 [Bookwood] I was thinking about trying Flame tree last trip but we finished faster than I thought

21:11:24 [Barbd] Yup Miss B you are definatly a cheap date

21:11:27 [suzyq] MissB & Lime, Flame Tree is a really good value for QC and for an eating choice.

21:11:35 [suzyq] Hey there Mike - welcome to our chat!

21:11:37 [LimeGreenC] Barb, I think I paid $11.50 for mine

21:11:40 [Bookwood] Hi Mike

21:11:43 [MissBianca] woohoo, hi Mike, brer!

21:11:44 [MikeS] Yikes...all ladies.

21:11:52 [BriarRose] hi mike

21:11:55 [LimeGreenC] Hi Mike, you boxer and socks guy ;)

21:12:01 [MikeS] Hiya MissB...how we feeling these days?

21:12:04 [brer] we are going the end of oct and will bo ordering Q and C. so Brookwood, I'll take you up on that offer, if no one else does

21:12:08 [LimeGreenC] Brer isn't a lady

21:12:11 [suzyq] Brer, glad you like the topic (you just missed the topic on foreign insects!)

21:12:12 [Barbd] What do you get for $11.50?

21:12:13 [Bookwood] Looks like you get hte Harem tonight! LOL

21:12:28 [MikeS] sorry Brer...

21:12:38 [brer] thank you LGC

21:12:50 [suzyq] Barb, you get a drink, main course, side dish and dessert

21:12:52 [MissBianca] Mike, I'm getting better, thanks!

21:12:59 [LimeGreenC] YW brer :)

21:13:23 [suzyq] With Q&C, if you get a platter (hamburger w/fries) then you just add a dessert and drink

21:13:25 [Barbd] Wow thats a good deal if you share a meal with all that food you basically eat for under twelve bucks

21:13:29 [MikeS] I thought i'd drop by because one of my readers dropped me a line and said she bought her vouchers via hotwire.

21:13:32 [MissBianca] wow, all that for 11.50? No wonder I see those coupons a lot!

21:13:39 [LimeGreenC] I think the key to Q &C is to not order a combo... it needs to be a la carte

21:13:56 [brer] Bookwood> I'll take that voucher for 11.50 if you want to sell it

21:14:07 [suzyq] Great, Mike - thanks for the update. I've looked into that - do you know what she had to pay? Fees?

21:14:14 [MissBianca] is it mostly counterserve places that the Q&C vouchers are good?

21:14:21 [suzyq] Hello Owl - welcome to our chat on budgeting for food

21:14:22 [brer] Beaches and Cream is great with the voucher

21:14:23 [LimeGreenC] Mike that is where MargaretJ got hers and she said she had no trouble with them, she would use them again

21:14:27 [LimeGreenC] Hi Owl

21:14:33 [brer] Hi ya Owl !

21:14:47 [Owl] My favorite topic now... esp. the Q&C coupons

21:14:48 [Barbd] Are these vouchers non refundable too?

21:14:48 [BriarRose] hi owl

21:14:58 [suzyq] MissB - They have diff vouchers for diff things. The main ones people talk about are the $11.50 for counter service & beaches only

21:15:01 [LimeGreenC] brer, it looks like Beaches and Cream is really the best bang for your voucher

21:15:07 [brer] nothing like a NoWay Jose

21:15:08 [Owl] We used them at Coronado Springs.. the BEST.. even better than at B&C

21:15:08 [MikeS] suzy...she did mention a fee...said that the vouchers were about $11. she said that the fee, i don't recall what that was, let's her take advantage of other deals.

21:15:22 [Bookwood] I may have spoken too soon- I just looked and couldn't find it- our were purchased as part of a youth group package and only cost $9.75 from Disney- if I find it I'll PM you!

21:15:30 [MissBianca] I love a lime rickey--I wonder if that counts as a drink

21:15:30 [Owl] 'cause you got a REAL full meal.. not burger and treat

21:15:39 [Bookwood] Hi Owl

21:15:40 [MikeS] Timon used vouchers in August when we did our B&C meet.

21:15:41 [suzyq] Q&C also has a breakfast voucher for (I think) $18.95? You can use them at the character meals. They also have a dinner voucher as well

21:15:45 [LimeGreenC] Barb, non refundable, but if you don't use them, you can usually find someone willing to buy them from you

21:15:49 [Owl] LGC... the BEST bang for buck is Pepper Market...

21:15:54 [LimeGreenC] What did you order at CS Owl?

21:15:57 [MikeS] Brer...i HAD a No way jose :D

21:16:02 [MissBianca] $18.75 for breakfast?

21:16:04 [Owl] Prime Rib dinner (list $19.99 I think)

21:16:14 [brer] I want to try the Peppper Market this trip

21:16:24 [suzyq] MissB - Something like that . . . I'll check

21:16:30 [Owl] cappucini or fruit smoothie for drink

21:16:35 [MissBianca] we don't spend that much with room service!

21:16:36 [Owl] the a YUMMY dessert too...

21:16:36 [brer] MikeS> awesome aren't they ?

21:16:48 [Owl] and we'd usually bag the sweet for later...

21:16:49 [LimeGreenC] wow Owl, that is a great deal!

21:16:51 [BriarRose] Pepper market has great burritos

21:16:55 [MikeS] Yes...actually split it with DW.

21:17:00 [Barbd] We had a prime rib dinner all you can eat for $15.99 at SHades of Green, I think anyone can eat there too

21:17:24 [MissBianca] how was the food at Shades?

21:17:25 [MikeS] ...then that night was at Ohana's with Dawick, Den, and Jenine...a full day.

21:17:27 [Owl] Mike had a slab of fish (I think swordfish) and it came w/baked potatoe and grilled veggies too

21:17:27 [brer] Owl....did you get the prime rib dinner witha Q and C ?

21:17:29 [suzyq] MissB - Breakfast vouchers are $17.50

21:17:31 [Bookwood] Where is

21:17:32 [MissBianca] good prices?

21:17:37 [LimeGreenC] That is good price for prime rib dinner Barb

21:17:42 [MissBianca] Thank you Suzy

21:17:49 [Owl] a huge portion that was easy to split for 2 hungry adults

21:17:54 [Barbd] It was typical Disney Miss B. We found stuff we liked a lot and stuff we thought was ok

21:18:04 [Owl] and the prime rib was HUGE and they also had a ribeye steak...

21:18:06 [brer] Mike...the dw and I usually split a dbl cheeseburger and the NoWay ..so we get out with using only 1 voucher

21:18:07 [Bookwood] Shades of Green exactly DH and I were trying to figure it out in July (without directions)

21:18:14 [Barbd] One thing with Shades of Green is no sales tax, they never asked for an ID card so I think anyone can eat there

21:18:23 [Owl] we had them grill the primerib for a few seconds to give it a barbque flavor

21:18:33 [Barbd] Bookwood right across the street from Polonesian

21:18:53 [MikeS] Sounds like a great deal brer..B&C have the best burgers on property....the sundaes aren't too shabby either ;)

21:19:03 [BriarRose] actually right across from GF

21:19:06 [MissBianca] wow, Brer, that sounds great (I love the NoWay)

21:19:06 [suzyq] Barb, is their a guard when drivin into Shades?

21:19:08 [brer] yep

21:19:22 [LimeGreenC] I'm really gonna have to try out Beaches and Cream

21:19:27 [Barbd] Hmmm we walked and we crossed the street and we were at the Poly walkway

21:19:33 [Owl] we stayed at Carib. Beach... Mike had a conf. at Gaylord Palms so we bussed over to CSR and then had Mike meet us

21:19:41 [Barbd] Yes Suzy, just say you are going to eat, he too never asked for ID

21:19:49 [MissBianca] I saw Shades on an aerial photo--was surprised how close it is to the Poly

21:19:51 [brer] the other street Barb LOL

21:20:04 [suzyq] Lime - you haven't tried Beaches??!!!

21:20:10 [Owl] I still have a few Q&C coupons

21:20:14 [MikeS] Cheri...y'know...why not walk over there from EPCOT some day in December?

21:20:17 [Bookwood] I'm trying to get a group together for after the marathon for Beaches and Cream- after that whose gonna worry about calories!

21:20:23 [MissBianca] LGC hasn't eaten at Beaches!

21:20:38 [MissBianca] oh my

21:20:43 [suzyq] Looks like Cheri is going to get a scarlet letter!

21:20:43 [Barbd] I havent tried Beaches either. That too was on our list to try but Thursday we realized the hurricane was coming so we cut the day a littel shorter than we normally would have

21:20:53 [LimeGreenC] >>>hangs her head in shame>>>> Nope, not eaten at Beaches

21:21:01 [BriarRose] it is very close to Poly but the GF driveway is right across from the SoG driveway

21:21:08 [MikeS] Just don't do B&C and then Mission:Space.

21:21:12 [MissBianca] at least you've not got vouches, Barb, it was rough to have so many plans changed

21:21:13 [Barbd] We have even stayed at Beach CLub twice so far and never tried Beaches

21:21:14 [BriarRose] that's okay LGC neither have I

21:21:17 [Owl] we JUST tried B&C our last time there in Feb., had always heard about it

21:21:22 [Bookwood] Me either Cheri don't feel bad

21:21:23 [LimeGreenC] a big B on my chest and it doesn't stand for boob. :D

21:21:24 [suzyq] Goodness, perhaps those of us at mousefest can get some Q&Cs and go to beaches with Cheri

21:21:49 [brer] LOL, LGC

21:21:53 [MikeS] B&C is not a big place...it should be bigger.

21:21:56 [BriarRose] give me the kitchen sink

21:21:57 [MissBianca] I want a kitchen sink picture

21:22:06 [MissBianca] I agree Mike!

21:22:21 [suzyq] Ya know, they don't let you order the kitchen sink with the vouchers anymore. :(

21:22:24 [Barbd] Me too Miss B but I cant eat ice cream so for me it would be just a picture

21:22:29 [brer] KITCHEN sink is not apretty site after it starts to melt

21:22:29 [MissBianca] who cares about that stupid arcade! more space for Beaches!

21:22:40 [suzyq] Take out the arcade and expand Beaches

21:22:42 [Owl] did they EVER let you order it w/voucher?

21:22:43 [MissBianca] yes

21:22:48 [MikeS] I agree MissB.

21:22:55 [Owl] bet they make more $$ on arcade though

21:22:56 [LimeGreenC] I would love to try the kitchen sink

21:22:57 [BriarRose] LOL kitcken sink SOUP

21:23:13 [MissBianca] Barb, I've so far found one thing I CANNOT tolerate

21:23:19 [brer] ready for a little storm LGC ?

21:23:21 [MissBianca] liquid Tylenol

21:23:35 [suzyq] OK, so we KNOW that B&C and Pepper are the BEST deals for Q&C. What about regular counter service in the parks . . .anyone??

21:23:44 [Barbd] thats a weid one to not tolerate

21:23:46 [LimeGreenC] yep Brer, ready again

21:23:49 [MissBianca] yes

21:23:58 [Bookwood] I totally think a kitchen sink should be agroup activity- I saw one onthe travel channel

21:23:58 [brer] something about GREEN ice cream witha lot of other things I couldn't readily id

21:24:12 [Owl] with the vouchers... reg. counters really aren't going to make it worth it... barely break even

21:24:29 [MissBianca] All of the counter service places serve tons of food

21:24:33 [Barbd] Can vouchers be used for Sit down places?

21:24:35 [brer] ice cream at MK YUM

21:24:42 [MissBianca] per portion--but I've never had dessert there

21:24:50 [Owl] the food court at AKL was OK w/using vouchers... came out a little ahead.. if you plan it right

21:24:50 [suzyq] Owl, that's true - except I just remembered that you get a great deal at Tangerine in Morocco!

21:24:53 [LimeGreenC] ROFLOL Brer, but the green would remind you of a great gal! :D

21:25:15 [MikeS] How many Dole Whips can you get with a voucher? ;}

21:25:17 [brer] lol, of course

21:25:23 [MissBianca] Mmmm, the combo plates at Tanierine are some of the best food at WDW

21:25:28 [suzyq] Tangerine: Shwarma platter $11.99, baklava $3, cafe latte, 3.99

21:25:41 [BriarRose] lol MikeS

21:25:59 [brer] we didn't care for morocco last trip

21:26:07 [LimeGreenC] LOL Mike

21:26:25 [Barbd] I seem to have a lag here

21:26:34 [Barbd] Can vouchers be used for Sit down places?

21:26:35 [brer] just stop by germany and get a fill of liquid diet ;)

21:26:44 [MikeS] How about using the vouchers at the Pop Century food court?

21:26:45 [suzyq] OK, so let's say we won't all be traveling with Q&Cs, do we have some great tricks to share to save money?

21:27:01 [BriarRose] well gotta go get DD into bed night all

21:27:01 [LimeGreenC] Barb, the back of the vouchers lists all the places you can use them

21:27:10 [suzyq] (didn't mean to cut you off, Mike)

21:27:13 [brer] yep, suzyq.........don't eat

21:27:17 [Owl] gotta fly

21:27:20 [Barbd] Suzy We always share meals thats our best saving tip

21:27:21 [suzyq] Bye Briar!!

21:27:25 [MikeS] suzy...for lunch...always flash your AP to see if you will get a discount.

21:27:26 [LimeGreenC] Mike, I hear that is a good place to use them too

21:27:29 [brer] nite briarRose

21:27:31 [MissBianca] brer, that's my new strategy

21:27:35 [LimeGreenC] Bye Owl

21:27:35 [Bookwood] Good night girls

21:27:38 [brer] nite owl

21:28:03 [LimeGreenC] Bookwod, are you leaving too?

21:28:09 [MikeS] G'night...briar....owl.

21:28:09 [suzyq] My favorite trick is the 2 for 1 burger. Take a place like Pecos Bills, order their delux double burger, order an extra bun &79 cents) and voila! You have TWO burgers!

21:28:20 [suzyq] Good night Bookwood!

21:28:26 [Barbd] Even if we eat hotdogs we still share and then get more to eat further down the road

21:28:28 [MissBianca] that is a trick suzyq

21:28:38 [LimeGreenC] I always forget to show my AP

21:28:43 [brer] good diea suzy

21:28:47 [Bookwood] We usually eat lunch sit down and breakfast and dinner in room or snack our way through!

21:28:56 [MissBianca] LGC, that's a Pressed Pennies no-no!

21:29:06 [suzyq] Del gets a little embarassed with that trick, but I paid for the bun, so I don't feel TOO bad

21:29:20 [MikeS] Or you can eat with a CM and they'll get you 20% off or more with their discount ;)

21:29:23 [MissBianca] if they didn't allow it, they wouldn't sell you the bun

21:29:24 [LimeGreenC] I know, MissB, but I can't remember much this days... I'm getting old!

21:29:35 [brer] we have to eat around here or there will be rioting

21:29:37 [Barbd] How did the determine how much to charge for the bun?

21:29:41 [suzyq] Good point, MissB

21:29:45 [LimeGreenC] So Mike, how do we find a CM to eat with?

21:29:50 [MissBianca] bit your tongue child!

21:30:05 [Bookwood] I never remember to check about AP discounts

21:30:09 [suzyq] Barb, they probably charge for the price of the bun, plus the price of extra mushrooms, onions and lettuce.

21:30:12 [MikeS] Good point Cheri...

21:30:30 [MissBianca] mmm, veggies on a bun sounds good

21:30:43 [LimeGreenC] I do admit, there are a couple of CM's that I know smile at me and are thinking, "weren't you just here 2 months ago?"

21:30:59 [MikeS] Do any of you visit the Rainforest Cafe?

21:31:10 [MissBianca] hahaha, you're memorable Cheri

21:31:14 [LimeGreenC] I do I do Mike!

21:31:15 [suzyq] {side note: Del just came in, saw my stow away and said "oh, it's cute!"}

21:31:20 [MissBianca] I've been to the one at DD--once

21:31:20 [brer] we have a few times Mike

21:31:28 [Bookwood] Weve had breakfast there several times Mike

21:31:31 [LimeGreenC] memorable maybe LOUD< absoluetly

21:31:33 [brer] AKL

21:31:46 [LimeGreenC] LOL

21:31:51 [suzyq] I've been to the DD Rainforest - though we didn't care much for our meal

21:31:55 [Barbd] Ive been to Rainforest a few times, In fact Ive been to Dinsey one many times, the one in Las Vegas, the one in Disneyland and the one near our home here many times

21:32:06 [MikeS] If you join their Safari Club you'll get 10% off every meal, a $5 certificate every birthday, and practically immediate seating every time you go.

21:32:12 [Barbd] LOL suzy

21:32:25 [MissBianca] I think the food at Rainforest Cafe starts at mediocre and goes down.

21:32:36 [LimeGreenC] Mike, do you know if you get a % off any Landry resturant or just Rainforest?

21:32:38 [brer] question, what does the pin in the upper rt hand corner do ?

21:32:41 [Bookwood] Do they have a web site to join at Mike?

21:32:47 [MissBianca] and I get soooo tired of "VOLCANO!"

21:32:47 [Barbd] How do you join teh club?

21:32:56 [LimeGreenC] Hi justjan

21:33:00 [MikeS] Hold on Cheri...i'll check my card.

21:33:04 [suzyq] Hello Justjan! Welcome to our chat

21:33:06 [LimeGreenC] LOL Miss

21:33:07 [Bookwood] Hi Jan

21:33:09 [Barbd] Miss B we ordered one of those in Las Vegas and it was only Dennis and me and I dont eat ice cream remmebr

21:33:10 [brer] hiya justjan

21:33:11 [justjan] Hello everyone!

21:33:26 [Barbd] Hi justjan

21:33:49 [suzyq] OK, which is better? A Volcano or the Kitchen Sink??

21:34:14 [LimeGreenC] the last time we were at Rainforest, the waiter dropped the volcano in the floor at the table. It just slid right off the plate. I yelled "LAVA:

21:34:26 [Barbd] A volcano is Brownies, practically a whole pan full, then ice cream and whip cream (Which I cant eat either)

21:34:27 [brer] we go to Magaritaville for our volcanos

21:34:38 [suzyq] Too funny, Cheri!! :D

21:34:47 [Barbd] LOL LCG

21:34:51 [MikeS] Does not say Cheri! Probably just good for RFC.

21:34:51 [MissBianca] Kitchen sink would be better

21:34:55 [MissBianca] ROFL Cheri!

21:34:56 [brer] hmmmmmm, my vote is VOLCANO

21:35:07 [LimeGreenC] Ken, just hid his face, I so embarass him, buti's funny

21:35:22 [MissBianca] what is in a volcano at margaritaville, brer

21:35:25 [brer] hi ya Ken

21:35:32 [suzyq] Oooh, it looks like a tie!

21:35:51 [brer] it is a liquid adult beverage

21:35:57 [Barbd] We had a volcano last trip with our kids and grandkids and they didnt use a sparkler anymore. They use a long stick with some sort of aluminum foil type sparkler looking thing.

21:35:59 [LimeGreenC] Thanks Mike! We have a Joe's crabshack which is a Landry's resturant and i was hoping it might be good there too

21:36:04 [MissBianca] brer, I guessed as much

21:36:05 [MikeS] i remember eating a "Bicycle Built for Two" back in 1992 at the Plaza restaurant....like eating two No Way Joses

21:36:10 [LimeGreenC] Ken says hi

21:36:13 [brer] lol, miss B

21:36:17 [MissBianca] Ah, Barb, what fun is that

21:36:39 [LimeGreenC] what is a No Way Jose?

21:36:55 [suzyq] They have a fabulous HUGE sundae at Ghirardelis, I think it's called an earthwuake

21:36:57 [brer] A PURE SLICE of Heaven LGC

21:36:59 [suzyq] Earthquake

21:36:59 [MikeS] brer....be my guest.

21:37:09 [Bookwood] Thanks for asking Cheri I was wondering too!

21:37:21 [MissBianca] No Way Jose - a peanut butter and hot fudge delight with chocolate and vanilla ice cream, peanut butter and chocolate morsels, whipped cream and a cherry $7.99

21:37:22 [suzyq] Hi Ken!!!

21:37:33 [LimeGreenC] ahhhh, I love a pure slice of heaven

21:37:44 [brer] choc and vanilla ice cream , melted peanut butter and hot fudge with the obligatory whipped cream

21:37:55 [suzyq] OOOh, MissB - I'm getting one of those! Cheri, we GOT to do B&C!!

21:38:05 [MikeS] No Way Jose - a peanut butter and hot fudge delight with chocolate and vanilla ice cream, peanut butter and chocolate morsels, whipped cream and a cherry $7.99

21:38:14 [LimeGreenC] Ok, I'm DIFFENTLY going go B and C for one of those!!!!!

21:38:22 [MissBianca] beat ya Mike :D

21:38:26 [LimeGreenC] it's a date Suzy! :)

21:38:31 [suzyq] Wait a second . . .MissB and Mike are copying!

21:38:34 [brer] we have done a pretty good impersonation right here in Thomaston Ga of a No Way

21:38:36 [MissBianca] They are just as good as they sound, too.

21:38:44 [MissBianca] and pasting, Suzy

21:38:48 [Barbd] is that called plagerism

21:38:58 [MikeS] you ARE getting better MissB...good for you.

21:39:01 [LimeGreenC] at your house brer or out to eat?

21:39:03 [brer] does anyone no where the REAL recipe is for a No Way ?

21:39:11 [MissBianca] ;)

21:39:28 [brer] here at the cabin LGC

21:39:32 [MissBianca] what makes it a REAL recipe, brer?

21:39:52 [brer] aka "the cabin in the woods"

21:39:53 [LimeGreenC] Cool brer!

21:40:13 [brer] the official B and C recipe MissB

21:40:25 [LimeGreenC] Has anybody used the AP at any WS resturants for lunch?

21:40:40 [brer] INSTEad of my our made up guess

21:40:50 [MikeS] On the same day i had a No Way Jose...later that night at Ohana's I had for dessert => Coconut Snowball - Coconut ice cream rolled in toasted coconut $4.99

21:40:54 [suzyq] Yes, Cheri. We used AP at Morocco 10%

21:41:12 [Bookwood] IN the notebook at B and C (probably on picture cards too so those that don't read English can make them)

21:41:17 [suzyq] I think that I would remember to use them and be more inclined to dine at lunch if we got 20% off

21:41:23 [MikeS] Cheri...yes...i have.

21:41:37 [MikeS] i believe the AP discount is good Mon-Fri only.

21:41:59 [LimeGreenC] Mon - Fri only? drats

21:42:11 [LimeGreenC] do all the WS resturants take the discount?

21:42:13 [brer] Mike, did you eat the whole thing by yourself ? the NOWay ?

21:42:24 [MissBianca] brer, the one Mike and I pasted is from AllEarsNet, but it matches the version from the B&C menu that stuck to my purse last trip

21:42:29 [MikeS] I also used the AP Discount at Portobello's

21:42:32 [suzyq] Yeah, cheri, the lunch discount is nothing to write home over

21:42:46 [LimeGreenC] the Coconut Snowball sounds good too

21:42:50 [MikeS] No brer...had help from DW...also had help from Jenine for the Coconut Snowball.

21:42:51 [suzyq] Do DVCers get a discount everyday or M-F as well?

21:43:03 [brer] MissB. I want the directions.....step by step ...... ;)

21:43:06 [MissBianca] I had a coconut snowball and thought it was bland and too cold

21:43:12 [MissBianca] ah!

21:43:21 [suzyq] I love snowballs! I made quite a few of them at 'ohanas

21:43:23 [brer] Mike.....I was worried ...... ;)

21:44:15 [LimeGreenC] I stuff myself with so many shrimps at 'Ohana that I could never eat dessert, I'll have to eat one less shrimp and get a dessert, the bucket thing looks good

21:44:37 [LimeGreenC] I looooooooooooooooooooooove those shrimps!

21:44:50 [LimeGreenC] those big fat shrimps

21:44:54 [LimeGreenC] just the right spice

21:44:57 [LimeGreenC] ummmmmmmm

21:45:00 [LimeGreenC] goooooooooooooooooooooooood

21:45:06 [MissBianca] hahahaha, we get it Cheri!

21:45:07 [suzyq] I'll share a snowball with ya, cheri - I, too get so full, but I love them. I also love cockatu coladas (though their not on the menu)

21:45:11 [MissBianca] (they are good)

21:45:11 [LimeGreenC] pile 'em on baby

21:45:14 [Bookwood] Hey Everyone I'm going to sign off now- I have to be up to take DH to airport at 4:30 am- everyone have a Magical Night!

21:45:29 [MissBianca] night Pam

21:45:31 [MikeS] but Brer...i did have the Bicycle Built for Two all by myself...12 years ago.

21:45:31 [suzyq] You can have my shrimp, Cheri - I'm too lazy to peel them

21:45:32 [LimeGreenC] Night Bookwood, thanks for coming

21:45:38 [brer] wish i could eat em LGC

21:45:40 [suzyq] Have a good night Bookwood!

21:45:47 [brer] nite Brookwood

21:45:54 [MikeS] Nite Pam.

21:45:57 [LimeGreenC] any shrimps you don't want, pass 'em my way

21:46:10 [LimeGreenC] what is in a Bicycle built for two Mike?

21:46:23 [MikeS] Cheri...you can have my shrimp.

21:46:25 [brer] lots of things I could do in years gone by..that I can't or won't do now LOL

21:46:27 [suzyq] Here's my money saving tip for eating at buffets . . .

21:46:40 [suzyq] only take your kids who are under 11 :D

21:46:57 [LimeGreenC] pass 'em over

21:46:59 [MissBianca] lol Suzy

21:47:01 [brer] PEN IN HAND sUZY

21:47:12 [brer] silly caps lock

21:47:15 [LimeGreenC] LOL suzy

21:47:18 [MikeS] Cheri...a BBFT is like two No Way Jose sundaes...two goblets of ice cream fudge, whipped cream...cherries...i'd say almost a gallon of ice cream.

21:47:21 [MissBianca] actually if you have a "bottomless" teenager, a buffet is a good deal

21:47:23 [suzyq] Another tip for buffets is that you can just order a side of mac and cheese or chicken fingers (instead of the whole buffet) for kids and it's like $6.95 or something

21:47:42 [LimeGreenC] I have to say, Trail's End buffeteria wasn't as good this last trip. Maybe we just eat there too much

21:47:56 [MikeS] They are no longer offered at the Plaza restaurant but i know that the double goblets are downstairs in a storage room...i asked :D

21:48:08 [LimeGreenC] oh that sounds good too Mike. I just love ice cream

21:48:12 [MissBianca] Cheri, that's probably it--time to try something new. LIke Beaches!

21:48:15 [brer] <haven't been to Trails End

21:48:25 [MikeS] H&V was surprisingly good last time for dinner.

21:48:33 [LimeGreenC] LOL Mike

21:48:51 [brer] H and V ?

21:48:54 [LimeGreenC] MissB, I'm gonna try B&C, for a no way jose if nothing else.

21:48:57 [MikeS] if i keep asking Cheri....who knows ;)

21:49:05 [BetsyAnn] like H & V

21:49:09 [MikeS] Hollywood and Vine at MGM

21:49:14 [MissBianca] Trails End did make a great meet last year. It wasn't too busy and since it was a buffet, the wait staff didn't get too confused when we milled around

21:49:20 [brer] good on u LGC

21:49:23 [LimeGreenC] you keep asking Mike :)

21:49:24 [MissBianca] Cheri, avoid it after Illuminations

21:49:28 [brer] TY Mike

21:49:54 [brer] < likes the flat bread at Mama Melrose

21:49:55 [LimeGreenC] I agree MissB, it was a great meet!

21:50:07 [suzyq] You're right, MissB - what long waits!

21:50:19 [LimeGreenC] how about an early lunch like right at 11:00?

21:50:27 [MikeS] Best advice is to go to B&C around 3 P.M.

21:50:50 [LimeGreenC] I've never eaten at Mama Melrose, or Hollywood and Vine or the Brown Derby

21:50:52 [suzyq] {newsflash: Del said that You-know-what was not a roach but a *cute* beatle with unusual markings}

21:51:07 [MissBianca] whew!

21:51:16 [MissBianca] can you get a picture of it, Suzy?

21:51:17 [LimeGreenC] 3pm would work too. and early lunch

21:51:17 [suzyq] Cheri, IMHO you can forgo Mama Melrose's unless you have to have pasta!

21:51:34 [MikeS] You sound like WillCAD Cheri...the poor lad needs to check more restaurants.

21:51:39 [suzyq] Uhm, MissB I think he is . . . uh how should I say this . . .SQUISHED

21:51:55 [LimeGreenC] We get stuck in ruts Mike.

21:52:20 [LimeGreenC] Ken is leary of my "new resturant choices" since he HATED Boma

21:52:21 [MikeS] Yup....but a rutter myself.

21:52:37 [MissBianca] awwwwww

21:52:42 [brer] that was too bad LGC

21:52:45 [MikeS] Boma...on my December list...dunno how tofit it in but we'll try.

21:52:48 [suzyq] Ya know, we didn't like Boma either. It was good for breakfast, but that's hard to mess up.

21:52:56 [LimeGreenC] Suzy, you didn't squish that bug :D

21:53:01 [suzyq] . . .and Del and I like foreign foods!

21:53:21 [brer] Boma's is good to us

21:53:22 [MissBianca] what's your favorite, Suzy (and Del)

21:53:30 [LimeGreenC] I didn't really care for Boma either. It was ok, but not a place I'd take my family back

21:53:43 [brer] and a good excuse to visit AKL

21:53:48 [LimeGreenC] although, I did have a great drink with chocolate on the rim and lots of vodka

21:53:49 [suzyq] I asked Del why he squished it and didn't put him outside and he said because if he is suppose to live in Tahiti, then he shouldn't be here. Oh well, at least he died having see!n another country

21:53:52 [suzyq] RIP

21:53:54 [MissBianca] Jiko, Jiko!~

21:54:00 [LimeGreenC] a white elephant or something

21:54:15 [MikeS] MissB Carol said hi and is looking forward to seeing you whenever.

21:54:18 [MissBianca] he's right, Suzy, but picture first next time ;)

21:54:18 [BetsyAnn] Jiko -

21:54:28 [brer] haven't tried Jiko

21:54:35 [MissBianca] That's great, Mike, I'm so looking forward to seeing both of you there!

21:54:37 [BetsyAnn] another vote for Jiko!

21:54:38 [suzyq] MissB Our favorites are 'ohana (of course), Pecos (for counter) and Cindy's for fancy dinner

21:54:55 [LimeGreenC] that beef over mac and cheese in a reduction sauce at Jiko sounds wonderful,

21:54:59 [MissBianca] Jiko has the number one entree at WDW, IMHO: the berbere braised lamb shank

21:55:06 [MikeS] We did LTT first time this past trip...very good.

21:55:13 [MissBianca] so tender you can't believe it and mmmm succulent

21:55:21 [suzyq] Oh yeah! LTT!!!

21:55:25 [BetsyAnn] IT is great

21:55:40 [LimeGreenC] Mike did LTT taste like stouffers frozen meals?

21:55:54 [MikeS] It seems Le Cellier has become a regular stop for us too.

21:55:55 [MissBianca] ROFL, Cheri, should it?

21:55:56 [suzyq] Well, it is officially past 10 (or 7 my time). I will need to head out as we have people coming over for a movie night

21:56:09 [MikeS] Cheri...no...it tasted pretty fresh to me.
