Casey's – good hot dog (reminded me of the ones they have at Costco, which are my favorite). I liked that they had onions and cheese sauce at the toppings bar. The fudge brownie was very fudgey and good. Only problem was not nearly enough tables.

Flame Tree – very good pulled pork and I loved sitting by the water across from Expedition Everest. I didn't care for the baked beans but the chocolate cake was good.

Pecos Bill – went here twice. First time had the double cheeseburger with fries which was good and huge. Second time I had the chicken wrap which I liked a lot more. It was also huge (couldn't finish). I love the topping bar here, which is why I went twice instead of going to Columbia Harbour House (which I also like). I used the computer to order the second time, which worked fine, but didn't give me a receipt, so I couldn't be sure I was charged correctly (I was, it turned out). Would have really upset me if I were paying with my own credit card.

Earl of Sandwich – I was here early so no line and plenty of tables. I had the original roast beef (no cheddar) and it was very good. I got a cupcake for dessert which was pre-packaged so I took it with me.

Cantina de San Angel – this wins the award for most food with your dining credit. I got the combination plate and it was so huge it looked like I barely touched it after I was full. And I got a churro for dessert which I only ate one bite of (too sugary for me). I love sitting by the water and the birds didn't bother me.

Sunshine Seasons – I got the ham & salami grinder which was huge! Big enough to share. I liked the dessert case and had a tough time deciding but wound up with Butterfinger cheesecake which was divine. I ate early so it wasn't crowded.

Riverside Mill – I had the turkey sandwich here and it was nice and big and the bread was fresh. I didn't care for the macaroni salad that came with it (though you could also get chips or grapes). I liked that you could pick any dessert and I got a Mickey rice crispy treat, which I ate a few days later (I was too full from the sandwich).

For snacks I had a Mickey ice cream bar, 1 pineapple Dole whip float, 1 pineapple & vanilla Dole whip, a bag of cinnamon raisin bagels that I picked up at the resort (I only ate half of them during the week), school bread in Norway, an ice cream sandwich at the Main Street Bakery, a piece of chocolate mint fudge (looked better than it tasted) and I created chocolate-dipped pretzels at Goofy's Candy Co. (best bang for the buck!). You can do three pretzels and have three completely different toppings. I did white chocolate with crushed peanut butter cups, dark chocolate with sprinkles, and milk chocolate with crushed Oreos.

Hm... I've obviously missed an important-- and exciting-- change. Ordering from a computer? Sign me up! Weird about the receipt, though.

We're thinking of trying Cantina this trip-- sounds like we could share. Just not sure since DH is Mexican and he doesn't go for Tex-Mex type food. Might have to convince him, though.

I just added Goofy's Candy Co to our "must do" list. Thanks!

We also like the Flame Tree and Pecos Bills. I think we might have to try Casey's for that hot dog with cheese. Also since you said that the Cantina San Angel has huge portions we might have to split a meal there.

Thanks for the review!
