First day at Disney and I wanted to try the chili in a cone at the Cozy Cone.
The Chili cone turned out to be watery and had a lot of gristle so i went back for something else.
The manager was nice and let me switch to the BBQ pork cone which was delicious.
Lunch for the first day was at one of the older restaurants in Disneyland the Plaza Inn for some fried Chicken
This is one of the best deals in Disney if you share a meal. 3 pieces of chicken mashed potatoes, green beans, and a biscuit for $17.50
When we stopped back at the Homewood suites on south Harbor I was surprised to see they had left me a birthday gift.
A chocolate twist and a Boysen Apple twist made a great dessert treat after dinner. find these in front of the castle at Maurice’s Treats
Next we went to Carthay Circle in California Adventure to celebrate my Birthday again, this is the Carthay Circle Escarole Salad
Free bread is always good
I choose the Thick-cut Pork Chop which may have been the best pork chop I have ever eaten.
A free birthday dessert ice cream makes it even more special
The California food and wine festival was going on and I wanted to try the Apple bacon Whoopie Pie at the Gold rush booth, I got it and was not very impressed.
The next day we rented a car and went to see some Walt Disney sites in Griffith park such as the Carousel that inspired Walt to create Disneyland and we saw Walts train shed from a distance since it is only open on Sundays. we were rushed for lunch so I stopped at a long time LA burger institution called the Habit Burger Grill, voted best burger in the US by Consumer Reports.
We got the double cheese and a new super salad and Sweet Potato fries and all of it was fresh and good.
After attending a Conan show we had reservations for A well known Walt Disney Favorite the Tam O'shanter
The free bread was a good start, I was surprised at how good the dark bread was, it was more of a sweet bread.
tasty Shepards Pie, one of my favs
My wife got the tam burger with no bread
I got a ENGLISH TRIFLE for a Birthday dessert, Score! it was like a strawberry shortcake
We sat next to Walts favorite table, I learned that this room was used as a reference for the 7 Dwarves house.
The next day we went on a walk in Walt's footsteps tour in Disneyland
This is the Dream Suite we toured
The tour also included a lunch from the Jolly Holiday restaurant I enjoyed the Roast Beef and Blue Cheese on Traditional Baguette
and the wife had a tasty Jolly Holiday Salad with Chocolate cake
That evening we went to Catal at Downtown Disney and had another great meal and got a discount due to me signing up for the Birthday club.
we started with the BACON WRAPPED DATES
This was one of the best salads I have had, I loved the house made granola.
The main entree was a Roasted Chicken with Butternut Squash
Our waiter took very good care of us and brought this dessert out.
Back at Disney I have seen the cream cheese pretzel has a lot of high marks and I agree it was very good.
Lunch the last day was Disney Corn Dogs and Corn on the cob, again with some of the best food of this kind I have had.
Last meal this trip was a Cafe Orleans Disneyland the La Salade de Maison was a nice start
Then the big finish was pommes Frites and a Monte Cristo Sandwich, these were also very good but don't eat too much it sits very heavy.
I also had some Disney popcorn for breakfast the next morning but I ate it too fast to get a pic.
