On the way out I spotted the brand new Aladdin ears so I bought two. However I decided that Disney ears are not the most comfortable on my head
I think this is why i don't wear ears all that much. They are uncomfortable and don't provide any shade like a ball cap or other headgear.
we got ready and headed out to the Yacht Club for our dinner at...Yachtsman Steakhouse!
Yummmm!
First up, our the wonderful pull apart onion rolls. Of course we already ate one each when I remembered to take the picture. You can see Steve's half eaten one on his bread plate! I love the roasted garlic and the soft butter and I honestly spread them both on the bread.
I do too! So yummy!
We decided to share a starter and the porterhouse. For a starter we got the wedge salad which had a spicy blue cheese dressing.
Now I want a wedge salad. I shall have to add that to the dinner rotation.
And the wonderful piece de resistance...the porterhouse, complete with bone marrow.
Interesting how they present it all carved up and such. When we split the Ribeye, they brought it to us cut in half and each with our own plate with steak and potatoes.
This is actually the older presentation, I think they changed it to no be served in a cast iron skillet because it was overcooking the meats a bit so I think now it's just served on a platter. Ours was perfectly medium rare though, so I guess it depends on how much they heat the skillet and how much the chef undercooks it to finish on the platter.
I can see why. I woukd hate for it to keep on cooking and get over done. Whenever we do Teppanyaki, I get it rare because the pieces are so small and they keep cooking after they put them on your plate. By the time I'm finishing they are almost medium. Now I want Teppanyaki, but we don't have indoor dining, and besides we still are only doing take out or home cooking.
Yachtsman is not on the list of initial opening restaurants. Maybe the NBA has it all to themselves.
If the players were eating at Yachtsman, I dont think we would be seeing all disgruntled food pictures on Twitter and such.
We could not eat dessert because we were too full but David always gets me a little somethin' somethin'
That's just perfect!
Here's us and our server, David. I hope he's doing well. Yachtsman is not on the list of restaurants that will be opening when Disney opens in July.
I hope that the workers at the signature restaurants are getting decent compensation while they're not employed. Cutting that $600 is a travesty. A good server like David probably easily makes $600 a night in tips!
We made a beeline for Toy Story Land but of course that's what everyone else was doing. We waited about 35 minutes for the first time. It subsequently got shorter and shorter and we ended up going on it 4 times.
I would have gone right for RnRC, then thought about Slinky Dog.
Most of the other rides had very little wait though, so the crowd was definitely centered around Slinky.
Another reason to hit RnRC!
So overall I would say DHS After Hours is worth it if you really want to ride Slinky Dog and were not able to get a FP. You do still end up waiting and it takes up a lot of time. If we only did Slinky once or twice we would have time to ride every other ride in DHS. Remember though, that this was before Galaxy's Edge and the new MMRR ride.
Was this a paid event? Not like a Free DVC Moonlight Magic?
We saw this photo op over by the entrance to Pandora:
You guys look cute, I liked that photo op too!
I ordered a kid's chicken bowl with the charred green onion vinaigrette and it was delicious! We had late lunch ADRs at Tiffin's so this was the perfect size to get just a taste!
That looks like a TON of food!
And now it was our last official Disney meal at one of our favorites, Tiffins!
Someday I will convince Fran to eat there....
And I got the mushroom bisque. It was really good!
If this is on the menu, THAT would do it!
That and the soup were my two appetizers as my "meal"
Sounds like a winner to me!
I hope you have more TRs to finish. I'm running out of material, and I don’t know if DL will even open this year the way California is going.
