cindymac11 43 Posted September 15, 2014 Report Share Posted September 15, 2014 Hey, Ho, Fiendom!We are heading to the Fort in November and I have a dining question. We are spending most of our excess cash on Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party, but still want to have one or two fun dining experiences on the cheap. Was thinking maybe we would hit two different places and split a couple of appetizers at each. Any recommendations? We are two adults and a picky 10-year old (and I am not opposed to just shoving a PBJ at her if she won't eat what we order). Quote Link to post Share on other sites

BradyBzLyn...Mo 2,023 Posted September 15, 2014 Report Share Posted September 15, 2014 The Tune-In Lounge is attached to 50s Prime Time Cafe at Hollywood Studios is fun. It's first come, first serve, and not a ton of seats at the bar, but you can order off the full menu and you don't need an ADR. We've gone a few times and just ordered a bunch of apps to share, and because it's the full restaurant menu, there's a kid menu as well. There's also the new-ish outside lounge area at Brown Derby (also HS). Another first come, first serve, but there are quite a few tables there. Quite a few interesting appetizers and "small plates" type of things... I'm not sure about a kids menu. DTD also has a bunch of cool places that are pretty laid back and good for popping in and grabbing some apps. We like Paradiso 37 (deck seating is great on a nice day).

DaveInTN 3,247 Posted September 15, 2014 Report Share Posted September 15, 2014 I was asking if park is ok because I was going to recommend Tune In Lounge. If you are wanting something sweet I highly recommend their PBJ milkshake. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

TCD It changes from time to time and I think they play with specials as well. When I ate their in May they had a burger with a fried egg on it. The waiter was recommending it to everyone, as it turns out for VERY good reason. It may have been the best burger I've ever had. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

A burger with a fried egg on it? Bring it on! As far as I can tell, that has since been replaced with these sliders, which are described as "Wagyu Beef with Cognac-Mustard Aïoli, Smoked Gouda, Bacon, and Avocado served with Duck Confit, Taleggio Cheese, Chipotle Vegetable Slaw, Sweet Onion and Orange Conserve, and crispy Leeks." What the Fort is that? TCD Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Roller ... aka Ed 351 Posted September 15, 2014 Report Share Posted September 15, 2014 I haven't tried it, but I've heard good things about the new Tapas Bar in Morocco at EPCOT. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

That may not be a bad idea. It never has any customers, so it seems like you can always get a seat. But, then you have to wonder why it never has any customers.

Roller ... aka Ed 351 Posted September 15, 2014 Report Share Posted September 15, 2014 I do wonder why it doesn't have customers ... because everyone I know that has tried it has said it has good food. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

As far as I know, it doesn't accept the Disney Dining Plan. So, that excludes a bunch of guests. TCD Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Tri-Circle-D 2,059 Posted September 15, 2014 Report Share Posted September 15, 2014 Sounds like my kind of place, then. Just checked to be sure, and the Disney site still says that the Dining Plan is not accepted there. They have a separate lunch and dinner menu (although they appear to be the same). If you like Moroccan food, this is your place. It's a nice looking place, with a great view of the water: https://disneyworld.disney.go.com/dining/epcot/spice-road-table/ TCD Quote Link to post Share on other sites
