Good, maybe you can explain them to me
No problem. I'm well versed in the language. Hahahaha!
Good, maybe you can explain them to me
Let me know if you decide to go. Maybe we could do a little NYC dis-meet. Get @ariane37 & @ChunkyMonkey!I'd love for Casey to see Christmas up there sometime. She love, love, loved the city and last year was obsessed with the Radio City Christmas Spectacular so it is most definitely in the cards sometime.
This past trip, Morgan must have "looked" old enough for "real" glasses this trip. She got one at almost every sit down place. This of course caused issues, as Gwen was stuck with the small kid paper cups....I'm pretty sure it was Casey's drink. Still can't trust my klutzy kid with a real glass at a nice restaurant. You should have seen me in NYC. She was the only kid in every restaurant we ate at - so no kids cups and I was terrified she would spill. I had half a mind not to let her drink at all
For dinner tonight we had another evening planned with my tipsy disney soul-sister, Ariane aka @ariane37 and her husband Steve.
Um yeah, thanks for reminding me"Uber to grand while wait for a who took luff wrong way."
I almost peed my pants before we got in the correct restroom when you did thisWe also made a trip to the ladies room, where my daughter had to save me from accidentally walking into the men's room.
We've always thoroughly enjoyed our meals there, but Rony makes a huge difference in our experience. I really wish we'd been seated in his section! Still had an awesome time with you guys and can't wait to do it again. And, I'm pretty sure Tiffins has now moved to the top of our favorite signature list. I'm sorry dear Rony!Overall, Citricos was a good experience. Service was slow, but in the company of my favorite Disney people all was forgiven. Unlike Ariane its not on my "must do" list, but we'll definitely be back. Hopefully more tipsy notes will ensue.
We are FABAfter dinner we bid farewell to our friends, but not without another photoshoot to mark the occasion.
Citric-Notes Part 2: Tipsy Notes Revenge
For our entree Casey and I shared the Scallops with English Pea Risotto.

I'm a sucker for a good scallop and this did not disappoint. Or more specifically "for creamy love pee scallops huge sweet sn perfect." Guess I liked it.
For his entree Jason went with the Red Wine Braised Short Ribs.

Per my notes this was "well done not out of ordinary." About this time Casey also decided that she could become our official" thumb vidoegrapher for everyone's dish.

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say Ariane and Steve gave their meals a "thumbs up."
As we waited for our dessert, we were treated to some fireworks from Happily Ever After - which sadly was as close as we ever got to it.

At this point we were getting full, but not too full for dessert. We all shared the Warm Chocolate-Banana Torte with with Vanilla Ice Cream and Handcrafted Belgian Couverture Chocolate Crown

Casey ate the majority of this, but the little that I was able to get was "tasty brownie but nana more."

We eventually, "bear back to room" where "more wine." #GoodTimes
Up next, we almost "skip" a meal
Love reading your reviews!GRRRRRRRR-EATTTTTTT!
The bread, per my notes, was "fne not especial" - catch the subtle spanish undertones

You forgot to add "you're welcome" to the end of that sentence But I'll say it anyway - THANK YOU! It just wouldn't be a tipsy report without 'emFor anyone who has read my reports in the past, there is usually at least one meal where my tipsiness reflects itself in my notes and, finding my tipsy self hilarious, I type them up verbatim.
I did.The bread, per my notes, was "fne not especial" - catch the subtle spanish undertones
I couldn't agree moreDang inpunfanesxa ruins a dish every time.
Thank goodness for Casey!We also made a trip to the ladies room, where my daughter had to save me from accidentally walking into the men's room.
Countin' on it!Hopefully more tipsy notes will ensue.
I always end a good day at Disney by bearing back to my room. Just seems like the natural thing to do.We eventually, "bear back to room"
I had to stop reading updates to comment on this amazing photo! I have a cat sushi key chain that I got on my trip last year. It was one of those mystery boxes that you bought without knowing what was inside. I had no idea they had more!?!?!?! This might be my first stop next trip, well second (or third) after I pick up some adult beverages along the way to Japan.
We had a bit of a wait so we amused ourselves in Mitsokoshi and found these gems.
Cat, I have no idea why you are suhsi but I want ten of you! Though I still have no idea why I didn't buy you. Love this crazy store.
Yes they do. Its a really weird thing that I don't get. If I wanted to speak to someone I'd call. I haven't done it frequently, but every time I do it turns into a stream of phone calls that I ignore and then whatever the issue is doesn't get resolved. Maybe I should send an email questioning their constant need to call meDo they really call you?? And a real live person wants to discuss it with you? I've never sent an email before, but assumed they would send you that generic 'Thanks for contacting us and sorry your disappointed' email back. Interesting.
I'll have to check out the Etsy options. I don't think we'll do it again on the next trip but it would be good to have an idea of what the options are.Aw yay, how cute! Also, thought you might like this little bit of info (or maybe you already know and i'm just so not with it) but Etsy sells Disney inspired pearl cage necklaces! I was originally thinking of taking my pearl back with me to WDW to have them set it, as it's just the pearl itself, but then read that you can purchase cuter cages for way more than half off the price they sell it at Disney. So essentially, you could pre-purchase the necklace, take it with you to WDW, go and pick your pearl, and then just place it in the cage! So i'll be doing this instead and now i'll be able to wear it for my trip!
I most definitely will. Funny I saw on Facebook that SuLynn was at the same restaurant as us the night before we were. I was so crazed in the weeks leading up to the trip, I completely forgot that all of you were so close.Let me know if you decide to go. Maybe we could do a little NYC dis-meet. Get @ariane37 & @ChunkyMonkey!
I hope for my sake Casey never looks old enough for a real glass. That girl is gonna be 30 and still knocking things over.This past trip, Morgan must have "looked" old enough for "real" glasses this trip. She got one at almost every sit down place. This of course caused issues, as Gwen was stuck with the small kid paper cups....
We'll most definitely have to figure out something. As longs as its food, drinks, and you guys I don't care where we go. Though I have been toying with doing Hoop Dee Doo on my actual birthday. But I can just imagine Chris' reaction to thatWe have to do another one in August! I'm thinking MAYBE Cali Grill since it's your favorite signature? Since we weren't wowed on our one visit and the boys haven't been.......we'll talk
You and me both! Casey is still telling that story to people.I almost peed my pants before we got in the correct restroom when you did this
I wish we'd been able to experience Rony too, but we couldn't have great company and great serviceWe've always thoroughly enjoyed our meals there, but Rony makes a huge difference in our experience. I really wish we'd been seated in his section! Still had an awesome time with you guys and can't wait to do it again. And, I'm pretty sure Tiffins has now moved to the top of our favorite signature list. I'm sorry dear Rony!
Thank you!Love reading your reviews!
Thanks. I aim to pleaseLove the tipsy notes. We haven't done Citricos but the photo of your scallops may make me reconsider come the next trip.
Tipsy notes, with a tipsy reply, and now another tipsy reply back. Great minds think alikeSince you had tipsy notes during your review, you get a tipsy reply!
Glad you enjoyed your meal at Citricos. We love it but I get that some people are just ok with it without it being a must do. A drunk meal is always a good meal for me!
Sorry they are taking away the kids club for you!
You forgot to add "you're welcome" to the end of that sentence But I'll say it anyway - THANK YOU! It just wouldn't be a tipsy report without 'em
Yes, I really have no idea what we'd do without her to look after usThank goodness for Casey!
Every day is a good day when there's a little bear in itI always end a good day at Disney by bearing back to my room. Just seems like the natural thing to do.
You had me this whole update!
It definitely is. I guess if people can online date, we can online friendI love that you & Ariane got to meet up several times! So awesome! It's crazy how you can become good friends with someone that you met on the internet, isn't it?
You should definitely try it again sometime. I can totally feel ya on the suction cups but you can't feel them at all when you eat them.I wish I could get over my fear of octopus. I really eat almost everything, but those suction cup thingies make me go ! I just can't do it. I really want to, because I feel like I'm missing out on something really delicious, but I can't.
That is awesome! I was so enamored with the cat sushi that I actually bought one of those key chains online for our family's Christmas white elephant gift exchange. My cousins' wife's mother (got no idea what that crazy connection is) who was visiting from El Salvador got it and poor thing had no idea what it was or why it was funnyI had to stop reading updates to comment on this amazing photo!

We had a wonderful cast member who freestyled some Christmas magic on our girl! #MoodSolved
Casey even got a little solo while we waited for Belle.
despite having a server who wanted no part of the Skippers schtick
she efficiently brought us some much needed adult beverages for Jason and I.
the boba balls - aka smoosh berries to her
These were delicious and should totally be served on the adult menu in a larger portion. For anyone who has never had Yuca, its like a potato - but a bit starchier - and fries up to a golden fluffy perfection.
We'd never had these before and we really enjoyed them. I love head on shrimp as they really keep the juices in and these had tremendous flavor and great spice. Plus, who doesn't wanna suck all those delicious juices out of the heads! Sadly our only complaint was that for $25 there were only 4 of them!
