Hoop-Dee-Doo Musical Revue


Day 5
Hoop-Dee-Doo Musical Revue
Fort Wilderness-Pioneer Hall
Disney Dining Plan: 2 Table Service meals each person



This was a PERFECT ending to our trip!  I HIGHLY suggest making your way to the Hoop-Dee-Doo Musical Revue.  It is a great interactive show with FANTASTIC food!  We were at table 62 and it was truly like we were guests of honor.  Our table was located in the middle of the floor with about 6 feet of space in front of us before the next table.  The actors spent a great deal of time directly in front of us and even sang a song to Gavin!  He is in LOVE!  The chef was the best one of the trip.  He gave us his business card.  His name is Jonathan Sanders.  His email is jonathan.sanders@disney.com.  He spoke to us about both allergens and made a special plate for Rick.  Instead of mashed potatoes he made him a baked potato and corn.  He also brought him a special salad.  Gavin was able to eat the corn bread and everything else, which he loved!  The dessert was strawberry shortcake.  Rick had just the strawberries and the shortcake, no cream.  Gavin had just the strawberries and cream.  It was great!  Although we had such a great table there really isn't a bad table in the house.  My husband and I went on our honeymoon and we were in the balcony and that was great too!  The actors are really all over the place.  The only suggestion I can make sure you leave plenty of time to get there.  It isn't the easiest place to get to fast.  There is a boat from Magic Kingdom to Fort Wilderness, but it was raining the night we went.  So we took a bus from our resort to MGM (because it was the closest park).  From MGM we went to Wilderness Lodge.  There is then 1 bus that goes to Fort Wilderness.  You do not want to take a bus to Fort Wilderness Campground because that lets you out pretty far away from Pioneer Hall.

A little bit of everything!

Les Chefs de France


Day 4
Les Chefs de France
EPCOT-France
Disney Dining Plan: Table Service meal

All I have to say is YUMMY!  We thoroughly enjoyed Les Chefs de France!  It could've been the DELICIOUS wine, but still it was good!  Chef Loic came to our table and spoke with us about Gavin's allergy.  He informed us that the Macaroni and Cheese was safe as well as the bread!  We were very excited because the bread was off limits everywhere else!  The Macaroni and Cheese was not on the kid's menu, but they made it for him anyway.  Gavin did not have dessert that evening.

At the Art of Animation there are 4 different food stations ranging from Mongolian to Italian.  My husband wanted Italian for himself and Gavin.  He spoke with the chef about his lactose intolerance and Gavin's peanut allergy.  The chef made them their very own pasta!  My husband said it was delicious!

Rick's is on the left.  They both had chicken pasta, but different noodles.

We spoke with the kitchen manager who assured us everything was safe except the desserts.  I didn't take a picture, but Gavin got chicken nuggets, fries, applesauce, and milk.  The chicken nuggets were actually pretty tasty!  The adults got pulled pork sandwiches or half a chicken.  The pulled pork was delicious!  This was part of the quick service meal and there was ALOT of food!  I will definitely eat here again!

Biergarten

Day 2-dinner

Biergarten
EPCOT-Germany
Disney Dining Plan: Table Service meal

Chef Richard, from Hawaii of all places, came to speak with us at our table.  He explained that all of the regular food on the buffet line was safe for Gavin, but we needed to stay away from all breads and desserts.  He then offered to bring out a dessert made by Enjoy Life, which is a company that is free of the 8 most common allergens.  He brought Gavin 2 packages of cookies and a candy bar!  Gavin was in seventh heaven!  This was our second time at Biergarten and it did not disappoint.  We will definitely eat there again!

A sampling of the buffet from my husband's plate.  There was lots of other yummy foods that he couldn't/didn't want.

This dessert plate was NOT safe for Gavin, but it was yummy!
Here is a picture of the dessert from Enjoy Life.  He tried a brownie at one of the other food vendors and I have to say that was the BEST!



La Cantina de San Angel


Day 2-lunch
La Cantina de San Angel
EPCOT-Mexico
Disney Dining Plan: Quick Service Meal

After lots of searching the Food and Wine booths with no luck, my husband finally decided to go to La Cantina de San Angel.  He spoke with the kitchen manager who assured him everything was safe.  He ordered Tacos de Pollo, it included: 3 tacos, chips & salsa, 5 churros, and a drink.  My mother in law ordered the Tacos de Carne and we all agreed those were tastier, but the Pollo was delicious as well! I couldn't believe the amount of food we got for the quick service meal!

Cape May Cafe

Day 2
Cape May Cafe- Character Breakfast
Beach Club Resort
Disney Dining Plan: Table Service meal


Cape May Cafe was a breakfast buffet, and we all know how scary buffets can be for allergies.  Chef Randy came to our table and was VERY accommodating and eased our minds.  There was nothing on the buffet line to worry about for peanuts.  There were a couple of items with tree nuts like the granola.  We just stayed away from that side.  The chef made my husband dairy free waffles and a chocolate donut.  My husband was thrilled to be able to eat breakfast without getting an upset belly!  Minnie, Donald, and Goofy made their way to every table,it was a very quick meet and greet.  Gavin loved every second!  The food was a great and the service was outstanding!  I would eat there again, but not for the character breakfast part.  

There were SO many choices.  This is just what I chose: Bacon, Sausage, Eggs, Potatoes, Waffle with Cream and Strawberries, and Biscuits and Gravy.
