Bottle Rock Napa Valley 2018

http://www.bottlerocknapavalley.com/ Date: May 25th to May 27 Feedback: This was very pricy with the one-day tickets sold at $149 dollars but with a service fee of $24 dollars and shipping of $17 dollars, it totals $190 for just a day Friday seemed to be OK. The main stage was not as crowded for Friday headliner (Muse), I guess because the crowd was pretty split between the Muse and the Chain smokers - different genres of music and different kind of crowd. Food: There were a lot of food and drink options. Seems easier to get food near the Midway Stage as opposed to the food stalls near the main (Jam Cellars) stage Make sure you know what to bring and not to bring!

Tiffins, Animal Kingdom, Orlando Florida

Website:  https://disneyworld.disney.go.com/dining/animal-kingdom/tiffins/ Where: Animal Kingdom Rating: 4.5 out of 5 Feedback: May 15, 2018 It was really quick to get a table which was very interesting, I guess most people were going to other less expensive restaurants or character dining This restaurant was international cuisine and is actually quite good. Waitress mentioned that Ramen is good but is probably the last thing you want to order from the menu. Appetizers: Bread Service It includes Naan, Lavash, and Pappadums and three toppings: Harrisa Yogurt, Lime Chutney, and Black-Eyed Pea Hummus.  The bread service in Sanaa was better but this is good enough Charred Octopus with Romesco Sauce, Olive Tapenade, Chorizo, Squid Ink Aïoli Roasted Beets and Burrata Beet Sponge with Cashew Nut Kashata, Pickled Blackberries, Morgenster Extra Virgin Olive Oil Entree Whole Fried Fish Amazing and definitely you have to order Wagyu Rib-eye Snake River Farms Wag

We ordered  Fried Rice (half an order) The full order was huge - it was more of a TRAY, so we decided to do half-order which was a full plate half order was around 10 while full was around 15 Combination Pancake - Mac + Banana + Pineapple - $12.75 They were nice enough to just put one pancake per plate since I was sharing with a friend It was tasty and fluffy They had a coconut syrup which was kinda like coconut milk with some maple syrup.  Not really for me but some people loved it. You might want to order the whip cream on the side. Ordered Pineapple Juice - nothing nice. It was a bit diluted. The restaurant has a great view!
