Tangierine Cafe’s Cashew Baklava

Tucked away in Morocco’s Tangierine Café at Epcot, you can find a Pastries and Coffee Bar with an assortment of beverages, including coffee, beer, cocktails and even a Moroccan Mint Tea.

You can also find an assortment of pastries, including three types of Baklava: Walnut, Pistachio, and Cashew. I asked the Cast Member which one he recommended, and he suggested Cashew.

Mouse Bites for January 29, 2012

It’s been crazy around these parts yet again this week! Hop on board and kick back. Hey, you have the week off from football, so procrastinate on chores with me! ;)

This week on Eating WDW:

We checked out the Limited Time Only French Dip Sandwich from Earl of Sandwich at Downtown Disney.

The Marina Margarita from the Margarita Bar at Downtown Disney satiated our need for tequila.

From the spread of Valentine’s Day treats at Goofy’s Candy Company, we instead opted for the Oreo Brownie.

A detour to I-Drive brought us to Brick House Tavern & Tap.

We spotted a fun Goofy mug in Germany, and also sampled some savory Pomsticks.

Victoria & Albert’s once again earned AAA Five Diamond Status.

It was time for sushi at Tokyo Dining!

Mouse Bites for January 22, 2012

It’s been a busy week here on the blog, so here’s recap as well as some delicious food posts from around the Disney blogosphere! It’s a great way to catch up on news and reviews on a leisurely Sunday (or slack-erly Monday!).

Restaurant Marrakesh: Dinner

I recently made my first visit to Restaurant Marrakesh and enjoyed Beef Brewat Rolls and a boldly flavored Goat Cheese and Crisp Breads appetizer. For our second visit, we dined at dinner. Since Matt enjoyed with Roasted Lamb Meshoui, during our lunch he ordered it again, and we spotted a few minor differences.

Restaurant Marrakesh: Lunch

I talk about how much we love Tangierine Café here on the blog, yet I’d never eaten at Restaurant Marrakesh. It had been ages since Matt had visited, so we decided it was time to dine there. Over the holidays, we managed to visit twice: once for lunch (just the two of us), and once for dinner (with 4 others). We’ll start off with our lunch visit for today.

We didn’t have a reservation, but arrived shortly after the restaurant opened. We were seated immediately. The dining room is large, open, and ornate. Since this was my first time in the restaurant, I was a bit in awe of the décor.
