\"Dining<\/a><\/p>\n

Happy Friday everyone!\u00a0 I hope you all had a great Thanksgiving and are ready to get back to cruising, because we are still on the Disney Dream and we still have a few more delectable meals to go!<\/p>\n

The best thing about cruising with Disney is that they have their own private island called Castaway Cay.\u00a0 This island oasis is the perfect mix of tranquility and fun.\u00a0 But…what do you do when you start to get hungry?\u00a0 I’d hate to have to head all the way back to the ship.\u00a0 Never fear, because Disney takes care of making sure you never go hungry when cruising with them!\u00a0 They’ve brought their very own special barbeque restaurants to the island.<\/p>\n

There are two locations where guests can grab either a snack or a meal:\u00a0 Cookie’s BBQ or Cookie’s Too.\u00a0 (If meeting with people, make sure to specify which one you mean.\u00a0 It’s easy to get confused.)<\/p>\n

Both establishments are set up in a buffet fashion and are delightful open air restaurants.\u00a0 (IE:\u00a0 all outdoor, including seating.\u00a0 Luckily there are tables that are covered by shelter or an umbrella.)\u00a0 Guests will head up to the buffet, fill their plates, and then find the seating at a picnic table which is located near by.\u00a0 Both restaurants can be found on the family beaches.\u00a0 Cookie’s is found on the main Family Beach and Cookie’s Too is found near the extended Family Beach.\u00a0 (Make sure to check a map for exact locations while on the island.\u00a0 Luckily, the island isn’t big, so you’ll likely find one of them easily.)<\/p>\n

Menu options from the grill include hamburgers, hot dogs, rotisserie chicken,\u00a0 BBQ pork ribs, cajun mahi mahi.\u00a0 Also offered are fresh salads, potato salad, potato chips, corn on the cob, cole slaw, cous cous, and fruit.\u00a0 Of course, dessert is also offered.\u00a0 Ice cream or cakes can be found, but they are most famous for their chocolate chip cookies.\u00a0 (Given what the restaurant is named, I would expect nothing less.)\u00a0 These are large cookies and quite delicious.\u00a0 There is a self serve drink island available for guests here too, serving up coke products.<\/p>\n

\"Lots<\/a>
Lots of lovely options to be piled on your plate!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The food isn’t fancy (It’s certainly no where near as fancy as what’s served on the ship.\u00a0 If you want something fancier, I would suggest boarding the ship for your lunch)\u00a0 This is what you expect from a typical BBQ restaurant.\u00a0 Personally, I think the food is quite good and I could eat about a dozen cookies (and that’s saying something…I mean they are huge!)\u00a0 I like that they give some of the menu options a bit of island flare to them too.\u00a0 The food is flavorful and it’s nice that they have some more unique offerings too.\u00a0 (Like the cous cous).\u00a0 My favorite would have to be the ribs.\u00a0 Juicy BBQ covered ribs.\u00a0 I also really enjoyed the corn on the cob, the potato salad, chips, and did I mention the cookies?<\/p>\n

Overall, after swimming in the ocean all morning, Cookie’s and Cookie’s Too is a welcome spot in my Castaway Cay adventure.\u00a0 It’s perfect for the island.\u00a0 You can eat quick and then head back out to enjoy the rest of your fun-filled, sun soaked afternoon!<\/p>\n
