It has been one of my Disney bucket list items to visit every single Disney hotel on property at Walt Disney World and this summer, I managed to knock off the last one on my list…Coronado Springs.\u00a0 Now, personally, I fell in love with this resort, and it has now made it onto my must stay list, but of course, that’s not why we’re here, now is it?\u00a0 We’re here to talk about food and of course, I’m ready to talk Pepper Market with you!<\/p>\n
The restaurant’s entrance, found off the main lobby area, next to the unmistakable large statue of a colorful dog holding a drum that says Pepper Market, is themed with an outdoor market sort of feel.\u00a0 The food area is covered in canopies and tables include umbrellas to make it feel as though you are dining alfresco.\u00a0 The place has a very Latin feel to it, with peppers hanging from the ceiling and multicolored chairs surrounding each table.<\/p>\n
While a counter service location, this restaurant is very different than any other restaurant on property. Upon entering, guests are seated by a host or hostess.\u00a0 You are then given a slip which you are to take with you when you head up to the different food stations and pick out what you want to eat.\u00a0 The Cast Members behind the station will stamp your slip what it is that you ordered.<\/p>\n
Once you have your food, you then head back to your table, where you server will bring you your drinks and keep them filled.\u00a0 Decide you want dessert after your meal?\u00a0 You are more than welcome to head back up to the food and get what you want, slip in hand.\u00a0 Once you are all done your server will take the slip and then bring over your bill, which you will then pay.\u00a0 (See, I told you it was different!)\u00a0 It all may sound a bit confusing, given the fact that this restaurant is sort of a mix between counter service and table service, however, it all works flawlessly.<\/p>\n
The restaurant has actually changed quite a bit over the past few years.\u00a0 This restaurant was known for having at 10% surcharge added to it, as sort of a tip, however, that seems to have disappeared.\u00a0 In addition, earlier this year, the Pepper Market has also transition from a buffet style experience to the a la carte system it currently uses.<\/p>\n
Dishes are inspired by both Mexican, as well as American flavors.\u00a0 There are many different stations available that change up, however, being here for dinner, we got to choose between the Grill Station (burgers), the Sandwich Station (paninis and warm sandwiches),\u00a0 the Chef Station (Mexican dishes), the Market Station (soups and salads), Italian Station (pizzas and pasta), and Market Specials (more hearty dishes).\u00a0 We were dining with The Forresters, so we all went up to see what delicacies we’d end up choosing.<\/p>\n
The first thing I noticed is that this food looked fantastic.\u00a0 Everything seemed to be fresh and there were a lot of options to choose from.\u00a0 The hardest part was picking!<\/p>\n
That was until I came upon the Market Specials.\u00a0 Holy wow!\u00a0 This was being offered up at a Counter Service meal?\u00a0 The options here looked incredible!\u00a0 The majority of our party stopped here for our meals.<\/p>\n
Personally, I couldn’t resist the carved slow roasted beef.\u00a0 It was sliced off right there for me and was served with two sides of my choosing.\u00a0 There were some great choices including mashed potatoes, mixed veggies, roasted potatoes, rice pilaf, and more. Once I got to the table, I was anxious to dive in.\u00a0 This meal looked simply fabulous and with one bite, I was able to verify that it was.\u00a0 The meat was cooked to perfection was juicy, and had a great flavor to it.\u00a0 The crusting on it was spiced just right.\u00a0 The veggies were cooked, but still a bit crisp and the mashed potatoes with brown gravy (which I am a sucker for mashed potatoes) were heavenly.\u00a0 I couldn’t believe how great everything was.<\/p>\n
Pam decided to try the honey adobo roasted chicken.\u00a0 She said it was juicy and delicious. \u00a0\u00a0 It was a LARGE portion of chicken too!\u00a0 She also thoroughly enjoyed her mashed potatoes and mixed vegetables.<\/p>\n![\"IMG_1874\"](\"https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/08\/IMG_1874.jpg\")
