Re: 9/22: Compendium Pt. II

Interesting article and reviews, Kevin!

WDWfigment, excellent photo!

btw...about 'sauces'...the french will beg to differ with the poster above. And by 'palette' I assume the poster meant 'palate', no? Let's drive a 'stake' in that steak.

I don't disagree at all. The thing is, in this thread all I'm seeing are the defenders of the policy freaking right out, out of all proportion to the "provocation" of little more than people just saying "wow, that's pretty locked down, isn't it."

If you go over to the Grand or Poly, you'll see that those buildings just as locked down as the Bay Lake tower. Disney can't lock down the main buildings and the rooms contained therein because of the restaurants, shops and registration desks.

Locking down buildings is a business practice accepted industry wide.

Get over it.


Exclusivity, that's our byword
Exclusivity, our poke-you-in-the-eye word
Bay Lake Towers rise from the ground
And that's where all us swell folks are found

Exclusivity means don't come peekin'
All you hoi polloi, we really think you're stinkin'
Don't you wish you could see the view we see?
You're outta luck, we paid big bucks for Exclusivity!

*rolls eyes*

It's not that big a deal, people. There's nothing in that building but hotel rooms and a balcony for those guests, so who cares?

In reference to the calamari:

Squid is calamari. I think the proper reference you were looking for is "tentacles" -the best part.

And bravo to any restaurant that does not supply sauces. Unless you're eating horse meat, sauce should not be needed. And if your stake needs sauce, then well, I guess your getting what your paying for. The lack of salt and pepper on the other hand is a little ridiculous.

As for the Yellowtail, it's a rather mild fish cooked or raw, which is why it is a sushi favorite especially if you are speaking of "amberjack yellowtail." Therefor it make sense why the you were tasting the vegetables -that was the point.
I noticed that, but thought that I'd be nice and not mention it. Nor that the tentacles are usually the better part.
