INNER MOUSE 26 – FOOD FOR THOUGHT

By JeniLynn Knopp | Published: Wednesday, March 9, 2011

The Disney Driven Life brings you another episode of inner mouse. In this week’s show, Scott, John, and JL recap an eventful weekend in Walt Disney World. The antics of the 2nd inner mouse meet were tossed around for discussion as well as the happenings of the Annual Passholders Expedition Everest Event. Following that, Team inner mouse attempted to bring attention to some of the restaurants that are frequently overlooked on Disney property. Leave a comment below and tell us which eateries you feel don’t “get their due” when it comes to cuisine fame.

Maybe this doesn’t qualify as an “overlooked restaurant” for most of the folks here, but Liberty Tree Tavern in the MK seems to polarize a lot of folks — they love it or hate it.

We ate there (party of 6) on our last family trip, and it’ll be a “must-do” from now on. The price is a bit hefty (~$30/person), but it’s a buffet of hearty, Thanksgiving-style food including an apple ala mode dessert that had me miserable through Spectromagic, Wishes, and the monorail ride back to the Contemporary.

Maybe it’s the food selection, maybe it’s the price — don’t know what for sure why the “haters hate,” but I think it’s a definite unsung hero of Disney Dining.

Whoever in the chat gave the pronunciation on conch is right. Very disappointed to see that John didn’t know the correct pronunciation of this food item. Way to go JL!

Jessica, you are so right and I am so embarrassed. When I got home, I did look up the pronunciation and realized how horribly I butchered that word. Oh well. At least I knew how to spell it. LOL!
