Mole is supposed to be made with chili powder and chocolate. I suspect you had wanna be mole. Was this in the US? What state?

This was the San Angel Inn in Epcot's Mexican pavillion. Best atmosphere of any restaurant, ever, but the food was lackluster. If what I had was intended to be a mole sauce, someone goofed and used sweet milk chocolate instead of baker's chocolate to make it. Also, it was the consistency of melted cheese rather than a liquid sauce.

Fortunately, I was able to fill up on margaritas.

But did you get a table by the water and get to watch the little boats go by? Cause that's the important thing.

Hey. New board.

Huh. Something about the way you phrased that, Kristen, knocked "Don't Be the Bunny" right out of my ear, and replaced it with "Standin' on the Corner Watchin' All The Girls Go By."

I'm in a Broadway way today. Hey hey.

We were kind of in the middle of the restautant, but you can see the boats from almost anywhere in there. And I swear they figured out some way to noiselessly generate a cool breeze that blows into the patio from over the water.

The Mouse actually has excellent restaurants in the Moroccan and French pavillions and in the Land and Sea exhibits. (I've also heard that the Italian restaurant and Japanese steakhouse are primo, though I've never eaten there.) The U.S. exhibit has hamburgers that make McDonalds seem tasty by comparison, and the British pub has food that's true to that of the country it represents—an abomination.

Who? moi??

Ah, Florida and the mouse. No wonder. Excuse my cynasism, but do they allow any Mexicans near there?

Try mole again, at a restaurant that features Oaxacan food. Um, if you like fairly hot meals.

Milk chocolate and chicken, shudder. Supposed to be thick tho. Not runny.

Both Alfredo's and the restaurant in Japan, the name of which I can't remember, are great and a lot of fun, too. I love the Coral Reef. Even if they do have the weird Mouse shaped butter. Which restaurant did you go to at France? The one upstairs? They had a great steak au poivre.

I don't know if it's still the case but, when we used to go to WDW, the EPCOT international pavillions were staffed by natives of that country. I know that when we were talking to one of the chefs in Japan, he mentioned that his time was almost up in Florida and he was about to head back to Japan.

Actually, Disney makes a point to hire people from the countries in question to staff all the pavillions. It is nice to hear about Moroccan customs from someone that lived in Fez. Though the flip side of that is that the French section sometimes has mimes.

In France I just went to the patisserie, but the pastries were out of this world. I try to eat a meal at Marrakesh every time I'm in Orlando now. Also, I gave teh smorgasbord in Norway a try for lunch last time. It was good enough, but not something I'd particularly recommend with so many other nicer and more exotic dining experiences within walking distance.
