You're doing Yak&Yeti for the first time too? It seems like it's been getting better reviews lately so that's what got me interested.
And I'll really be looking forward to your Yachtsman Steakhouse review. Artist Point and Yachtsman lost out on my signature dinner list this trip, so I have to save them for another time.
And you weren't kidding when you said you had a lot of ADRs.
We thought Yak & Yeti seemed like a good place to stop and share a couple of appetizers and some frosty beverages. And I'm hoping that the use of the word "yak" in their name refers to a noun and not a verb.
As for Artist Point ... in the words of Danny Vermin, "We ate at Artist Point once. Once."
Yachtsman is one of those places we've talked about trying for years ... even going so far as to make ADRs that we later cancel. Since Stinktown is home to so many good beef places it's hard for us to get excited about it in Florida when all we want to do is sweep the seas clean.
I'M LATE!!!
Amazing how quickly time flies!!! I didn't know you had Crohns... My SIL and DH's friend have Crohns... it is a crappy disease, to put it bluntly! Glad you're not letting it rule you!
I can't wait to read all about your gastric adventures! (we'll definitely meet up on the 23rd, when we begin ours! Can't wait!
)
71 days for us!
You're not late, you're right on time!
And yes ... Crohns can be a craptacular way of life but I've been very fortunate that my medication keeps it pretty well under control. It still flares now and then but not badly enough to land me in the hospital, so I'm good!
Looking forward to seeing you at the Squishee stand!
Tried it last year for lunch and the food was pretty *meh* for our group. Not bad, but not great, esp for the price. It's a shame, because I LOVED the theming, and the service was excellent. I really wanted to love it, but thought it was just ok. Maybe it has improved?
Well, I've my fingers crossed that the food's improved. I really just want the ahi tuna appetizer and a Yak attack ... and Jay will likely want the pot stickers. As long as those pass muster we'll be happy.
Am I still hallucinating on pain killers or am I witnessing yet another Bendy Food Extravaganza????
(I have to go back to bed...
)
Yes.
Your line up looks great! I'm hoping to try Kouzzina's for dinner when we stay at Boardwalk next year. Did you see their drink line up? Yum! :

I have drool on my keyboard just reading it, trying the Ouzo-tini for sure!
The drink lineup was one of the things that caught my eye. I think I want to try the pomegranate splash with my breakfast! I'm not crazy about a lot of Greek food so breakfast seemed like a good option, especially once I saw the preliminary menu and spotted press pot coffee along with those boozey drinks.
And how the heck was your trip? You've been MIA since early summer ... I was beginning to think you'd all been on the receiving end of some bad meals.
Don't "know" you like many of the other posters, but I have read your other reports and love love love them. I am looking forward to this one. No WDW trip for us this year but we have a good reason. About the time you are enjoying your imbibe fest I should be having a baby. Drink one for me will ya?????? Just reading the drinks in the pp was killing me. I also think "breakfast" on the 20th looks good. Have a great time and I look forward to living vicariously through your report.
Hi there and welcome to the fun - don't be a stranger ... the more the merrier around here!
I will be more than happy to raise a glass to you and your new baby - congratulations!!!
3rd page and the trip isn't for 63 days yet! Someone must be very popular
We're just all very excited, that's all.
And thanks for joining in ... it wouldn't be the same without ya!
"Go Bendy. It's your birthday, Go Bendy"
Love me some Brenda and Jay food reports.
Sorry that we won't be there at the same time, but it gives me something to look forward to when I get back

Hi Cathy! Thanks for stopping by ... here's hoping we all have fabulous trips this fall!
I might ask them not to put me next to the fish tank just because of a post someone made a while back about how a kid came up and CLIMBED UP ON THEIR TABLE.
They asked the father to remove the kid and he said "She just wants to see the fish." Then he squeezed in between the poster's chair and the chair behind theirs to take pictures. Yikes. Nobody better try that on me.
I might have lost my cool....
I remember reading about that here ... I definitely do not want a seat next to the tank for just this reason. I would have blown my stack had that happened to us.
