Whats your favorite foods at Disneyland? - Page 4

I don't know if there is any actual difference between WDW and DLR turkey legs but we've pretty much given up on turkey legs at WDW since every one we've ever had there has been inedible.

Since that amounts to a sample size of about 4, though, it may have just been crappy luck rather than an actual qualitative difference.

Burrrbank ice cream sundaes - Strawberry Station and Steam 'n Chocolate.

English toffee - from the Candy Palace

Breakfast biscuit - from Whitewater Snacks

Grilled chicken sandwich with guac and green chiles - from Whitewater Snacks

I hope i can visit WDW one day (sniffles) so i can compare the foods. After 13 years being a annual passholder at DL, news eats would be a nice experience.

If only they'd open a organic resturant in DCA. thats all I need. sponsored by Whole Foods or something.

I guess I'd have to say "churro." The Dole Float's good, too.

The food at WDW is much better, and there are more options for vegetarians. I don't care for much of the food at DL.

Fun thread. My picks...

In DL...

Churros! But only at night time, for some weird reason. Likewise, hot cocoa from the Blue Ribbon Bakery.

The appetizer salad at the Blue Bayou. The pecans in it are so yummy!

Mickey Waffles at the Carnation Cafe (preferably with a vanilla latte)

Nothing really stands out in DCA. I haven’t yet eaten at the Vineyard Room, otherwise I’m sure it would feature!

In DTD/the Hotels...

The Uva Bar Cheeseburger. Delicious.

Guacamole at Tortilla Jo’s

Chocolate martini at the Hearthstone Lounge (kinda like dessert....)

I love Mint Juleps

Hot Link Corndogs at the Corn Dog Castle

Churros

orbitalpunk · 02-27-2006, 05:06 AM

Speaking of Mint Juleps, they were serving Margaritas in DCA on new years next the warf.

We love the food at DL, it is one of the main things we look forward to each trip (which is only a few times a year, so we don't get sick of it like the locals do). I'd have to say thought that on the whole, WDW food is better. With a few exceptions. These are the foods we make a point to eat on a four or five day trip:

HUGE cinnamon rolls at Blue Ribbon Bakery. These are better than at WDW. Michael has to have one every morning, I nibble off of his, because I just can't handle sugar in those quantities that early in the day. Usually acompanied by a cafe mocha.

Onion rings at Hungry Bear. Best onion rings I've ever had.

Churros. These are in short supply at WDW, replaced by Turkey Legs (which I too find to be too greasy).

Dole Whip (need I say more?)

Fantasia Ice Cream at Gibson Girl. MMMMMM

Soft Serve swirl at Catch a Flave (best soft serve, ever!)

Clam Chowder in a bread bowl (only at DL, DCA's just doesn't taste right)

Chicken Tacos at Rancho del Zocalo. Not because they are spectacular, just an acceptable choice for dinner.

Corndogs. I really don't like corndogs except at DL.

Mickey pretzels

Pizza at Pizza Port. Not amazing, but good for DL.

Everything at Bengal Barbecue.

I think that's it. I miss DL!

I hate to be the bearer of bad news if you don't already know this, but Fantasia ice cream is long gone at Disneyland.

Are the cinnamon rolls at Blue Ribbon and River Belle made in separate kitchens? They're similar in nature but the two I had from Blue Ribbon were both horrible (very dry, not much flavor) and the few I've had at River Belle were all very good (though too big to eat in their entirety).

I have to admit that I saw this thread title and thought I wouldn't enjoy reading it. I was wrong.

Eating at the park always feels fun to me, simply because I'm there with friends. I do get sick of certain places but after a few months I can go back, no problem. Food is just the fuel for conversation and more attraction-hopping.

That said: White hot chocolate at the Market House kicks ass and has become my addiction for cold nights at the park. That crap they sell elsewhere (even across the street at the Bakery) doesn't hold a candle to it and I refuse to buy it.

I will forever love Dole Whip. The pocorn is intoxicating stuff. The stuffed pretzels are great.

All of the actual meal items rank about the same on my radar.
