Flying Fish Review


Flying Fish is one of my favorite little restaurants on Disney's BoardWalk. It’s my go to for a grown ups night out!


The menu changes occasionally but each time I go back, I'm glad I did. Full disclosure, I am not a big fish person, but I love their nori bread and also enjoy the lobster with squid ink pasta. 

The aesthetic is sleek dark blues and greys, with an impressive hanging glass work of art. It's enjoyable to have a view of my meal being made as well. Comments I’ve heard while introducing friends and family to Flying Fish include “These are the best scallops I’ve ever had” and “I wish this appetizer came in a meal portion. I want to lick the plate.”
It’s environment is snazzy enough to dress up for, and comfortable enough to stop by last minute in your standard, laid back park attire. It is a signature dining experience however, so no swimsuits, tank tops, or flip flops are allowed.
It’s not uncommon for me to notice a last minute reservation available, so if I’m nearby and feel like a relaxing sit down dinner, I snag one.
Here are a few more menu items you can try, the oak grilled romaine and potato crusted snapper came highly recommended by our server, and that snapper was a home run!  Or if you aren't a seafood fan, the filet is also quite wonderful here. 

Oak-grilled Romaine with Buttermilk-Cream Fraîche, Pecorino Romano, Marinated Vegetables

Lobster Bisque with Aged Brandy, Chive Oil
Potato-wrapped Red Snapper with Leek Fondue, Cassis-Red Wine Reduction

Filet Mignon with Herbed Risotto, Honshimeji Mushroom, Broccolini, Soubise Sauce

If you're looking for a new Disney date night spot, or just a new restaurant to try, I highly recommend Flying Fish!

If you enjoy libations, make sure to stop at AbracadaBar before or after your meal. It's the zany and unique bar next door that you’re sure to remember!  Be sure to check out all the details around the lounge, there's quite a bit to see.

Cruising with a Baby: A Complete Guide

You took a baby on a cruise!? Yep, and I'd do it again knowing what I know now. So, say goodbye to months of research - Everything you need to know is here!! One of the biggest challenges of traveling with a baby is planning what you need to bring. I wanted to share what worked for us, and hopefully help others who are planning their cruise! Remember, babies can only cruise after their 6-month birthday on sailings from the U.S. If you are going transatlantic, or have more than three days out at sea, they must be 12 months old by the first day of your cruise. Pre-Cruise   We flew to the cruise port, and I couldn’t bring all the food and snacks I needed, so I placed an Instacart order for pick up near the port. I chose Publix in Cocoa Beach which is a few miles from Port Canaveral. I placed the order a few days before we left home, and set the pickup time to 11:00 a.m. I ordered formula, a box of diapers, swim diapers, bottle brush, dish soap, baby food, and baby snacks. I also broug

The Villas at the Disneyland Hotel Review

I love staying at the Disneyland Hotel so when I got the opportunity to stay at the new Villas at the Disneyland Hotel during opening weekend, I couldn’t pass it up. Because it was opening weekend, we were greeted in the entrance way of the lobby with balloons and many photo opportunities. When we arrived, there was a mural of the Haunted Mansion. I love how the seats in the main lobby were designed like the teacups in the parks. You can check in using the Disneyland app, drop your bags with bell services and head into the parks or use the amenities why you wait until your room is ready. When your room is ready, the resort will send you a text and you can use the Disneyland app on your mobile device to unlock the room. We dropped off our bags and went straight to the parks. We received a text around 1PM that our room was ready. In the new Discovery Tower (the Villas), you'll find that the lobby is very spacious with many places to sit while you read or wait for your family. Th
