Thanks to facebook friend Terri Mabry Pendleton for sending along the fun news (and pics!) about Disney’s Hollywood Brown Derby Restaurant’s latest piece of awesomeness.
You know how lots of Disney restaurants are doing dessert trios these days? Like, here are three little desserts instead of one big dessert? And you know how there’s always one or two desserts on that plate that you don’t really care about, but there’s one that you REALLY want to try?!?
Problem solved, say the Hollywood Brown Derby pastry chefs. CHOOSE WHICH ONES YOU WANT ON YOUR TRIO!!!!
Terri obvi made some killer choices: Bluberry Crumble (YUM!), Mini Grapefruit Cake, and…um…something chocolate, maybe? ;-D
And our friend Mealtrip chose some deliciousness, too!! Check out the Banana Toffee Cake on Cocoa Crunch and Strawberry Pearls in the middle!
Either way, I love the idea that you can choose the most compelling options from the menu for your trio. Hopefully some other Signature restaurants will take the hint and start doing this, too!
Which Brown Derby Desserts would be in your trio? Let us know in the comments below!
Georgeanne says
Wow, looks great. I may have to get two trios! Would this be available at the new outdoor lounge?
Mealtrip says
@ Georgeanne – Yes they are all available to the Brown Derby Lounge guests (i.e. outdoor lounge) as well!
Mirandamidas says
These look amazing! Can’t wait for our meal there in April! One question – is this now the only dessert option, or can you still order full size versions of some of these? If my husband can’t get a full slice of grapefruit cake he will be very sad! For me though, I am definitely trying three desserts at once 🙂
Angelina says
I need a large pot of that Blueberry cobbler right now!!!!!
Donald says
I have the same question as Mirandamidas – this idea sounds cool, but I might actually prefer a full size serving of the grapefruit cake (or their surprisingly good cobbler).
Mealtrip says
As of Sunday 02/09/14 my waitress said the grapefruit cake was still available as a full-sized portion, but it is no longer printed on the menu. You’ll have to ask for it. Only the mini-desserts are listed, so it may only be a matter of time. You can select three mini-grapefruit cakes though! (I know, it’s not the same thing.)
AJ says
Mirandamidas — You can indeed order a full size version of the grapefruit cake.
AJ says
Georgeanne — It is not currently available at the outdoor lounge 🙁
Mirandamidas says
Phew! Fingers crossed they keep the full size option, it is different having 3 small pieces or one big slice, particularly with the sauce to cake ratio. Thanks for the info, DH is much reassured!
AJ says
Mirandamidas — The full size version is on the menu, but we were told that you CAN order it.
AJ says
Whoops — Georgeanne, just got word that it IS available at the outdoor lounge! (ugh — Disney menus are always changing!)
Andrew G. says
I have got to try this on my trip! I’ve always wanted to try the grapefruit cake and this would be a great way to do it.
Is it possible to get a reservation and then only order dessert?
AJ says
Andrew G — You can always get a reservation and just order dessert.
Cindy S says
Does this mean no more white chocolate banana toffee tower?! I will be seriously depressed. That was my single favorite dessert in all of WDW.
