New Menu and Portion Sizes

This year the menus locations and portion sizes have been modified. Most notable is the the Wharf doesn not seem to be the hub of all the Food action for the regular guest. In previous years the “Seasonal” Asian Kitchen was used to serve up small sample sized dishes. It appears that this location is not being used at all.
Instead the portions have increased in size to full meal sizes at various locations around the park (see below) and the Cove Bar located above Ariel’s Grotto has been given a full appetizer menu. These Changes are very interesting. I wonder if it is due to the amount of construction going on at DCA and they are trying to spread the extra crowds around the park or if this is an experiment due to feed back from the guests of the previous years?
I for one am looking forward to to the changes except I would have liked to keep the sample sized offerings. It was great to have them all in one locations but I would be quite satisfied to have them spead through out the park. All in all I think this is a great event for DCA and look forward to taking part in the event s during Westfest next weekend!

hmmm, i was really looking forward to getting some of the sample size stuff during the Warf Meet & Greet on Sunday during West Fest. wonder if the spreading out of stuff will hurt or help the Food & Wine experience.
anyone else find it odd that the HOT DOG place has a LOBSTER SALAD LOL
as always, thanks for the great info

As was I, But it should be an interesting change and I think only after experiencing the event will we be able to really make our decision weather it’s a good of bad change.
Ya the Lobster at Award Wieners seems an odd choice.
