JFisher says
Aggghhh – Seriously – Sassagoula REMOVED 4 things I ordered when I stayed @ French Quarter – the Pancakes with Berry Compote – Seared Salmon- Baton Rouge Burger & French Dip! ~ Two of the three were even recently recommended on anther WDW blog! And I note there’s nothing added. What’s up with that?
Jacqueline says
Do the prices ever come down at Disney ? I understand increasing in stages, quarter here etc. but it just seems that that food is consistently going up 1 dollar or more all the time. At this rate a burger will be 30 bucks by next year lol
Laura says
I’m so disappointed in the menu changes at some of the resorts! Is there any indication that Disney will be adding some different items, or are we stuck with hamburgers and chicken tenders for choices?
