Our Disney Fantasy Food & Drink Adventure!


It is usually very good for me to get somewhere warm and sunny during the winter.
To escape the wintertime blues we planned our cruise on the Disney Fantasy to get some much needed sun, sea, and sand at the end of February.


Be sure to try the Drink of the Day- we loved these Key Lime Margaritas!
Let's talk about the Food!
Dinner on the Disney Fantasy rotates between three restaurants: Royal Court, Enchanted Garden, and Animator's Palate.




This particular sailing included a Star Wars Day at sea complete with droids, storm troopers, and sand people. 


Star Wars Day at sea also included a special menu with nods to the different lands of Star Wars series.
 Of course the food and World Class Service of Disney are absolutely unparalleled. 

Shrimp with caviar on a cucumber salad.

Portabella Steak with sticky rice.

Pork medallions with potato cake and chorizo.

This macaroon duo was the Hubs favorite dessert!

Scallops with sundried tomato cous cous.

This beautiful fish fillet was covered in fennel and placed on a creamy dill dressing.

Appetizer trio: spicy shrimp, salmon pate', and thinly sliced chilled duck.

Dessert trio with a small sponge cake, creme brulee, and cheesecake.

The blue lighting gave the feel of being in ocean with Crush and Nemo at Animator's Palate. This dish was amazing: herb crusted pork chop on a sundried tomato risotto.

Chateaubriand
I highly recommend the wine tasting. With 3 whites and 3 reds, we received quite an education, and were able to taste a very diverse selection.  



Our favorite bars on ship? 
Without a doubt Meridian and Ooh La La.


Meridian is aft (the back of the ship) and has panoramic windows...or you can enjoy the sunset outside.




We also opted for the Champagne Brunch at Remy.
There is an additional charge for this, but it is simply a dinning experience!



Yes- I had my picture taken by the sign...We named our cat after this famous rat chef.

Lobster and shrimp wrapped in mango.

Y'all...this is a perfectly poached egg, wrapped in breadcrumbs, and placed in a corn soup. It is one of the most wonderful things I have ever eaten! Sigh...

Slightly poached salmon with wasabi and seafood bisque.

Chicken with crab cakes and hollandaise sauce.

Hazelnut creme with hazelnut ice cream.

A crystal Chef Remy welcomes guests.

Chef Remy can be seen in the wine room mirror.

Several Remys in the fabric of our chairs.

Truly a beautiful dinning experience!!!
Of course we can't leave out Castaway Cay (pronounces Key), Disney's private island in the Bahamas. 


We have cruised with Disney before, this is only the second time we have been to this island when it was sunny. It was a bit windy this particular day, but My Stars- it was beautiful!


While on the island, we were provided a BBQ lunch. I opted for many of the fresh salads and piece of grilled Mahi.


On our last night, we returned to Ooh La La, the ship's French-inspired Champagne Bar.
The Elderbubble (drink on the right) is a delicious choice.


I've gotta be honest...it is somewhat difficult to readjust now that we are home. After 7 days of rest and relaxation, its back to cooking dinner and making my own bed again! Haha!

Well- as Mickey says: See ya Real Soon Disney Fantasy!

 La Bonne Vie Y'all!
