Pick a city. What are the three best dining experiences you’ve had in that city? Hm. I want to pick somewhere interesting. Ok, Paris. This of course means that I am only talking about places to eat in/around Disneyland Paris–but oh well. 😉 1)The Cinderella restaurant was fucking amazing. That was one of the very nicest steaks I have ever had in my entire mouth. Why is this meme so much about food? Jesus now I am hungry. 2)The Pirates of the Caribbean restaurant was also really really good. I even tried Tom’s swordfish and it was decent. That is a huge compliment from me about fish. 3)Planet Hollywood had some very well prepared food as well. I have eaten in other Planet Hollywood’s trying to recreate the experience and it has never been as good as it was in Paris. 🙂
