So, we are 23 days out from our trip and I have been filling in some of the gaps of places we want to get around to trying and I have finally found a few that are New to us that we definitely want to add to the list for the days when we don't have any reservations! I have been watching some of the DIS Unplugged videos on YouTube and found 3 possibilities of places to try during our unconventional Non-Park Disney World Vacation!
The first one we want to try is Blaze, which is like a Fired Pizza place at Disney Springs newer Town Center area. Apparently you can create your own pizza and they cook it for you super fast, it is still quick service but it looked great when I saw the pizzas from there. We thought this might be a good addition to our list of places to try. We are vegetarian, and this way we could literally put whatever toppings we wanted on our pizza! There are a lot of good options starting to pop up that will be great for us to try out!
The second one also in this area is called D-Luxe Burger. Yes, burgers, we are vegetarian, so we would be trying to Veggie Burger, but it still sounds fantastic. It has tzatziki sauce, green been salad, lettuce and tomato. They also have what looks like hand-cut french fries, with lots of delicious sounding dipping sauces to try out, curry ketchup, three mustard and honey, garlic ranch, and a few others! I think the burgers are like $9.95 each and then the fries are $4.99. On the scale of Disney prices, it sounds pretty reasonable to be, and definitely might work for a quick lunch or dinner if we can't decide on something to eat when we are out and about!
Another option at Disney Springs is the Morimoto Asia Street Food quick service. Eventually we want to make it to the Morimoto Restaurant, this time around it wasn't in the cards for the types of things we wanted to do and there were other places we wanted to try first. However, this street food option might work out! The have some noodle dishes, and a few seafood options we do occasionally eat seafood as pescatarian, so something to keep in mind if we choose to do so! I had no idea until today that there was even a quick service at Morimoto! I was glad to find out so if we find ourselves over there looking for a bite to eat, this is going to be on the option list.
The final place that we might check out I hadn't even thought to look at the menu for. Beaches Pool Bar at Grand Floridian. They have crab cake sandwiches and lobster sliders! They also have those homemade chips that are really good! Oh yeah and for dessert they have Pina Colada cupcakes! So if we are out by the pool area and want to grab some food, this place might just be where we go!
I guess that is about all for the moment, we did get the shipping notice for our magic bands, so hopefully those will be coming pretty soon, I have my budget notebook filled out and ready to go. Basically I listed every day on a separate page, put the budgeted numbers of the left hand side, and the columns for the actual numbers on the right. We have also been saving up some cash to have on hand and so I have an area to keep track of that also. The budget folder also has pockets inside so I can keep receipts and tally everything up at the end of the day, probably around when I am writing in the trip journal! So that has been taken care of! Other than that, we are getting pretty excited to go! Just barely over three weeks and this countdown will be over! Now, just waiting on those magic bands to get here!!
Oh yeah, one more thing, we have a reservation at The Boathouse for our anniversary and I keep checking every day to see if I can get a different time, I have it for 6:00 and I am looking to get 7:30-8:00. So I will keep you guys posted on whether or not that actually happens, I do check all the time though!! I am keeping my fingers crossed for it! Ok, I really am finished now...be back when I have another update!
