Description: OK, so I did in fact go to Disneyland. My friend wanted to go to the Blue Bayou because he had never eaten there. Neither had I, so we went for lunch. It's better to make reservations, but we waited only about 10-15 minutes for a table for two. When we were seated, it was actually a table for four not too far from the water under the bayou night sky.
I ordered a mint julep. It was non-alcoholic. It tasted like a mojito without the rum. My friend tried to order a glass of wine, but alcohol is not served here. He had a virgin mint julep instead. I ordered a pork loin that was marinated in jerk sauce and came with caramelized apples. My friend ordered the jambalaya dish. I tasted his dish, and it was OK, your typical rice pilaf dish. Not special, but just OK. My dish was fine, but I had a Caribbean jerk pizza the night before, so I don't think I should have ordered another jerk dish. I think I should have gone with the famous Monte Cristo sandwich instead. Oh, well...
We didn't have room for dessert. We were stuffed. The damage came out to about $45 for lunch for two people. The restaurant is inside the Pirates of the Caribbean ride, so the atmosphere was very romantic. I wish we were closer to the water, but I didn't want to wait longer for a table to open up. It would have been fun to watch the people ride by. Next time I happen to go to Disneyland, I’ll make reservations for a table by the water.
