We enjoyed the "Snoap" and lights until the park closed at 8 then we headed to The Boardwalk Resort for our reservations at the Flying Fish. Now the Flying Fish is a rather pricy restaurant that is known for it's amazing seafood and steak! Being a Cast Member I received a holiday book full of coupons one of them being a 50% off Dining coupon which I intended to use!
We got sat down at the Flying Fish and had the most wonderful waiter (Bob from Ohio). He greeted us and took our drink order and surprised us by bringing us complimentary cups of a potato leak soup.
After the surprise treat we all ordered our own appetizers, I ordered a shrimp and Calamari dish that was amazing! The calamari rings were so tender, and the shrimp was so flavorful! The only thing I wish I had considered was that this dish was deep fried so to eat it all myself it was quite heavy.
After looking at the menu I had to order the Crusted New York Strip steak, which is one of the things the Flying Fish is known for, and it did not disappoint. It was succulent and juicy, and so full of flavor! It is one of the best steaks I have ever had, anywhere!
After we had such a large meal we opted to share a dessert! We got a trio of Boardwalk favorites which included a caramel corn cheesecake, a Cherry limeade popsicle, and a S'more on a chocolate stick! I voted for this dessert because I absolutely love S'mores, and the S'more came on a chocolate stick with a homemade marshmallow cemented with chocolate between two homemade cookies. Now when waiter Bob caught wind that I was not sharing the S'more he brought out two more for my friends! We all had a good laugh about it. I have to admit the S'more was good but the winner in the dessert was the popsicle we all agreed that it had a really great taste!
Now Bob being the best waiter ever knew it was my last day at Disney, and he brought us an extra special dessert! He brought us over a fig creme Brûlée! Now I am not a fan of figs because of a past traumatic experience, but my friends said it was amazing!
With my 50% off coupon the bill came to just over $126 but that includes a $34 tip. We saved over $88.00 which is amazing to me!
I was really happy to be able to spend the time with my friends, it made it a lot easier leaving knowing that I had been able to do everything I wanted to one last time!
I am really lucky that I had such a wonderful manager who went out of her way to give me that day off. I had everything from my apartment packed up and I turned in my Keys and ID at 9:00 am the next morning and made the 17 hour drive home.
I think I will remember the events from the day forever, because they were so magical to me and it was all so much more then I could ask for!
