I do feel I have to disclose that this meal was on Disney’s dime, as Siriann, of Story Time Travel fame, and I were comped as part of our travel agent education training. Since we were playing with house money, we indulged and ordered drinks, appetizers, steak and dessert. While we’re coming clean, I apologize for the weird crops on the food pics. I had a crazy obnoxious logo that I had to crop off since I couldn’t find the originals. 😉
Our appetizer was less than fantastic. It was a seasonal crab appetizer and doesn’t seem to appear on any online menus (and I can’t even pinpoint it on the image of the menu from the night of our meal), but it was served with summer veggies and fried in something. I know. I’m extremely eloquent when trying to recall the dish. Anyway, it doesn’t matter to us because none of us would order it again.
Thankfully, we had dessert on the way! Siri and I both had our eye on the chocolate peanut cake with salted caramel gelato, so we decided to split one after the waiter advising it that it was “big” while holding his hands about a foot apart.
Despite the number of inside jokes this dinner inspired, I enjoyed my Yachtsman experience. Of course, I may have been swayed by the fantastic company and the ability to linger and chat as the restaurant emptied. Would I rush back for dinner? Eh, maybe if we were staying at the Yacht Club, but I’m a geek and really like Disney dining experiences, and Yachtsman felt like an experience we could easily get at any fine dining establishment.
