BradyBzLyn...Mo 2,023 Posted January 22, 2016 Report Share Posted January 22, 2016 As a big fan of the Garden View Tea Room at the Grand Floridian, this sounds interesting.

wendinator 109 Posted January 22, 2016 Report Share Posted January 22, 2016 Thanks for posting! As you know I'm a frequent tea-goer at the GF. Unfortunately with the Canadian dollar the way it is, I don't see any trips south in my future. My parents are in Florida until the beginning of March so I'll see if I can convince them to make the trip... If you go, please do post a review. I'd love to hear about it.

BradyBzLyn...Mo 2,023 Posted January 22, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 22, 2016 If you go, please do post a review. I'd love to hear about it. Ditto!! :) Unfortunately it looks like the May dates are after Wild Womenz Weekend so I don't think I'll make it either, but hopefully it's popular and continues past September and/or they add more dates.

Beckers 1,136 Posted January 22, 2016 Report Share Posted January 22, 2016 Phooey on the dates. I guess tea must be in high demand for holidays Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tri-Circle-D 2,059 Posted January 22, 2016 Report Share Posted January 22, 2016 Phooey on the dates. I guess tea must be in high demand for holidays Yes, those dates are very limited. It looks like they're using this for overflow on dates around Valentine's Day, Easter, and Mother's Day. I'm not sure about the September dates- I never thought of Labor Day weekend as a time for tea. TCD Quote Link to post Share on other sites
