We had dinner last night at Trail's End, which is a favorite of ours. If you haven't been, I recommend it highly -- you can often get in even when everything else is booked, the food is great and as far as I know it's the cheapest buffet on property at $24.95 per person for adults.
Once we had eaten well and were thinking about dessert, I asked our server to please bring me a half glass of root beer with no ice. She looked puzzled, but did as I asked. I thanked her, took the glass, and headed over to the soft serve machine to add some frozen vanilla happiness.
Once she figured out what I was up to, our server was surprised and delighted by this little innovation of mine. Apparently she hadn't ever seen anyone else do this, and it got me to wondering if anyone else has ever tried it. You could do it at any buffet, Disney or otherwise, that serves root beer and ice cream. It was perfect for me because Trail's End serves drinks in pint-size canning jars, so it wasn't crazy huge like the ones you would buy at Auntie Gravity's or other places that sell root beer floats. And no extra charge, either! :thumbsup:
If you're a root beer float fan, give it a try next time you're at a buffet that serves ice cream.
