Delicious Disney Dishes: Kouzzina’s Greek Fisherman’s Stew

Delicious Disney Dishes: 1900 Park Fare’s Strawberry Soup
One of the best parts of the 1900 Park Fare meal is the famous Strawberry Soup. It is the most delicious thing. (Sure, getting to meet the characters at this restaurant is great too, but seriously, this soup, it is the real reason to visit.) It’s unlike anything you’ve likely had. It’s a chilled…
