Taste of Disney

My nephew and his wife also dined at Narcoossee’s during their anniversary trip to Disney World in late July.

However their choices were all different than ours. Being on the Deluxe Dining Plan they each started with something from the Soup & Salads section of the menu. My nephew started with this salad…

Summer Peach and Rhubarb Salad with Flavorcrest Peaches, Baby Greens, Roasted Mr. Frye’s Rhubarb, Vermont Creamery Goat’s Milk Feta, Candied Pecans, and Tawny Port-White Balsamic Vinaigrette with Corn Bread Croutons and Rhubarb Jam

His Comments: The salad was amazing, one of the best salads I’ve ever had. The peaches melted in my mouth, and the presentation was gorgeous.

His wife began with soup…

Maine Lobster Bisque with Butter-poached Lobster, Coral, and Chives

Her Comment: The Bisque was good, but not great.

Then for his entree, my nephew chose…

Black Angus New York Strip Steak with a Butter-poached Maine Lobster Tail, served with Boniato-Idaho Potato Mash, Pero Farms Organic Green and Yellow Wax Beans, and Herbed Cabernet-Oxtail Reduction

His Comments: The steak was good and the lobster was tender. ALWAYS ask for the butter poached method when ordering lobster from Narcoossee’s.

His wife also ordered lobster, but she went with the…

Two-Pound Steamed Maine Lobster served with Fallen Corn Soufflé with Malted Popcorn Sauce and Broccolini finished with Citrus Gremolata

Her Comment: The lobster was a little overcooked for my taste.

Sadly neither of them took my advice and ordered the cheesecake for dessert. Instead, my nephew had the…

Coconut and Chocolate Crème Brûlée – Layered Coconut and Chocolate with Whipped Chantilly Cream and Toasted Coconut

His Comment: The chocolate pudding in the crème brulee tasted like Jello Chocolate pudding.

And his wife ended her meal with the Artisanal Cheese Plate…

Here is a photo of the cheese menu…

Her Comment: The cheeses were playful and yet very refined.

And there you have it. While this was my nephew’s favorite meal of the trip (mostly due to the amazing salad), it was not his wife’s favorite. She preferred her lunch at Bongos and a dinner for which the review is still yet to come.
