I can use that plow blade to push any private golf cart operated by a kid into the lake, and any Fort Wilderness golf cart operated by a kid back to the Reception Outpost where the kids will be detained, and released to their idiot parents in exchange for a hefty fine. If they don't pay, I guess I'll have to let the kid go, but I'll go back to their site and push their camper into the lake. TCD Travisma and Avatab.... Steve 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

DaveInTN 3,247 Posted March 27, 2017 Report Share Posted March 27, 2017 Ok, I had to try the beef sandwich so I got one yesterday. Now I understood going in this was not a Buffalo style Beef on Weck, so I tried to judge it on its merits, but I was particularly interested in how they would pull off the kimmelwick roll due to the complications I described earlier in this thread. So here are my thoughts: The beef brisket is the high point of this sandwich. It is mildly smoky, rather tasty and has a small amount of fat which gives it a nice flavor and texture. The Texans out there will probably turn their noses at it, but for a person like me that eats beef maybe once per year, it was pretty decent. 7 out of 10 for the beef. The horseradish sauce was too mild and runny. I asked for extra and dumped it on the sandwich and still could barely taste it. For me, if horseradish doesn't make your eyes water and nose run, it's worthless. 2 out of 10 for the horseradish. Now for the roll. I've never found a good kimmelwick roll outside of Buffalo. They don't keep well, so therefore don't ship well. And I couldn't imagine how they'd bake good ones with Florida water. So how did they pull off a good kimmelwick roll? Spoiler alert.... they didn't. This roll sucked monkey butt. It was like a stale pre-packaged sub roll with a worthless hint of caraway. I've had better rolls on a gas station ham sandwich. The roll was so awful that it brought the enjoyability of the beef down significantly. I'd give the roll a 1 out of 10, and the 1 is only in recognition of someone at Disney Dining at least trying to use a kimmelwick roll. So overall, considering all main components, I'd give this sandwich a 3 out of 10. And since I purchased it from a cool looking food truck and ate it pool side at the Fort, I'd be willing to bump that up to a 5.

Disney World fails in every area that I can think of when it comes to baked goods. They sacrificed quality for volume and profit a long time ago. Which is sad. Disneyland has an actual bakery that cranks out fresh bread in the California Adventure park, and their Main Street Bakery is still a bakery. It makes a huge difference. Thanks for posting your review. It saved me from having to try one of these sandwiches myself. TCD Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Tri-Circle-D 2,059 Posted March 27, 2017 Report Share Posted March 27, 2017 I've been wanting to try one of the Food Truck classic cheeseburgers, and finally got a chance to do so this past Saturday night. By the way, they already have a new menu item, which is advertised on the little sign posted on the counter: A closer look: So, $5.99 (plus tax) for a plain old hot dog. $9.18 (plus tax) if you want fries with that. That's $3.19 for an order of fries. It also makes me wonder if you can order the other meals without fries if you want to save a few bucks. Also, those two photos answer another question asked in this thread. As you can see, there's a MagicBand reader sitting there on the counter. I saw a guest use it to pay, and I also saw a guest use a regular credit card. Here's my classic cheeseburger: Here's the meat: As stated by others who have tried it, this is not a standard quick serve hockey puck hamburger. It was a nice, juicy, burger. No complaints. It was actually very good. Maybe on the same level as Deluxe Burger at Disney Springs, and a lot cheaper. I think the fries are the same fries they serve at Casey's in the MK- thinner than the typical Disney quick serve fries. I give the Food Truck cheeseburger a big thumb's up. They have a few picnic tables set off to the side, which is nice. They could use a few more. I am not sure whose truck was parked over by the Bike Barn, but there it is: Here's some of those picnic tables I mentioned: Even though Daylight Savings Time started a couple of weeks ago, they have not adjusted the campfire start time, and the fires were still lit at 6:30. The crowds showed up early: We arrived just before 6:30, and were lucky to not have to wait in a line at the Food Truck. The line got long quick: We came in through the 1400 loop, and I noticed that there was an old Plymouth parked on the comfort station sidewalk. You can see it here: I'm pretty sure that car belongs to Cowboy John, who was singing at the campfire tonight. I think Cowboy John needs to park his junk heap somewhere else. No offense. Here's Cowboy John. I don't know how long he's been around, but I have never seen him perform. He told a lot of corny jokes in between his singing. He did mix things up with his play list. One of the highlights was when he asked for requests, and someone yelled out Skynyrd! Cowboy John actually played a few bars of Sweet Home Alabama before he stopped and joked that he didn't know any Skynyrd. The Alabama folks in the audience loved that: Also note the new aluminum benches. There was quite a crowd here tonight: The sun was just getting low in the sky at 7:07 pm: Cowboy John did play some classics, like the Hokie Pokie: Dale was up there dancing, but Chip was still being mobbed: Even though it was quite light out, they started the movie at around 7:40 pm. The movie tonight was Zootopia, but you really couldn't see it: We bounced out of there right after the movie started. We wanted to check out Wishes and the EWP from Geyser Point. That old Plymouth was gone when we walked by the 1400 loop comfort station. So there you go. It was either Chip and Dale's or Cowboy John's.

ImDownWithDisney 342 Posted April 25, 2017 Report Share Posted April 25, 2017 Just had the pork belly burger from the truck. It was definitely way above the standard disney burger but maybe a tick below Dluxe burger. I was hungry and could not finish it. That's one big burger. The fries were nice and crispy too. My son had the chicken nuggets. They were really good. They were all white meat not chopped and pressed. Not sure if this has been mentioned but AP holders get 20% off.
