hi Lucy's fan Paul and Amy here and we are at Disney Springs today uh on July 2nd getting ready to check out the flavors of Florida event and it runs from now until August 13th and basically what it is is it is different uh menu items on restaurants throughout Disney Springs that highlight Florida's best flavors so table service restaurants Quick Service and even some of the kiosks we're really excited to take you along and show you and taste some of these uh dishes yeah for sure if you love this content that we have on DVC fan please show some love for our sponsors over a world of DVC BBC resale Market where you can buy or sell a Disney Vacation Club contract DVC rental store where if you're looking to try before you buy rent some points or rent out your own points they'll be able to help you and Monera Financial who will be able to help you finance that Disney Vacation Club purchase but it is hot out here in the Sun and we are hungry so we are gonna go find some food our first stop is Jack Lindsey's Hangar bar and we are here to try the Florida shrimp tacos this is going to be Florida jerk marinated golf shrimp a watermelon and avocado pico de gallo jalapenos and then it's served on corn tortilla with lime and I think Paul also got a drink but I'll let him tell you about that when he gets it but we're really excited they look very good we just ordered it it's very beautiful out here I did not know that there was a large Deck with a lot of seating there's a lot of fans so it's nice and cool and we're right on the water all right so it is way too hot out here to not get something light and refreshing to drink so we ended up going with the Florida mule here at jock Lindsay's Hangar bar this is made with Florida cane Orlando orange vodka ginger beer orange juice and simple syrup overall for a Moscow Mule it is very light and refreshing I think all of the orange going on really kind of cuts through that ginger beer so it makes it not as pungent or as like potent as it normally is in like a like a mule or a traditional mule or something like that so really refreshing and perfect for this hot day we just finished the tacos I thought that they were very fresh very flavorful they were a little bit small but there were some slice jalapenos on top I took those off I let Paul eat those because you know five sides to the stomach but just so you know they are just a little spicy even taking that off there was some chopped up jalapeno inside but for me it was just enough and I love the flavors the one thing we did notice about here and we'll have to see if it's true everywhere else is that the flavors of Florida items are do not have a price listed on the menu so we'll have to wait until we get our bill before we can tell you how much those cost all right next up on our Florida fresh flight what's it called flavors of Florida flavors of Florida we found this cool brochure actually in pizza Ponte which is what is up next uh for our tour uh today but um it has pictures of all of the various places that are food actually like it's multiple pages so if you are coming to experience the flavors of Florida definitely grab one of these uh because there's good descriptions and photos in it for everything yeah so uh pizza Ponte we had pizza first thing I will say about this pizza extremely reasonable um so pizza Ponte it was like nine dollars for a piece of pizza the size of our head yeah I think it was 8.75. and it was yeah and it was huge and and all of their pizza slices in there are between like 750 and 8.75. there was a there was a kid in there eating one of those giant pepperoni triangles and it was the size of the child so uh that is a good value I think you could take your family there get some pizza it is a little heavy but if you're hungry um it was pretty good yeah they warned me actually when I was purchasing it that it was a little bit spicy um there is a little bit of Spice from some peppers that are actually on this pizza but the Florida flavor that they're injecting into this is some local honey which kind of I felt like moved to the center of the pizza obviously because of how big it was um that kind of just maybe drizzled some on in the center of the pizza but I think it helped cut through that spice a little bit Yeah I spicy at all I'm very sensitive to spice it was very good it had some sort of like salami chili and I think it had basil in it as well it's not listed on here but it looks like it's on the picture ours was kind of like baked into it overall I thought it was pretty good all right first and foremost uh there's no background music or Boombox in my backpack that's STK across the way in case that's being picked up by our mic uh but while we were in the area we decided to grab something sweet at the ganachary so at the ganachary they have the honey lavender Square which is ganache Square flavored with honey lavender and enrobed in dark chocolate um it was three dollars and honestly I felt it was very light and flavorful and I think that's kind of the theme with a lot of these Florida menu items it was extremely light there was that little hint of lavender that was in there but overall I enjoyed it yeah I liked it there was no overpowering flavors I love dark chocolate three dollars that's the price of all their little chocolate squares so it's a little pricey for how small of a piece of chocolate is but it is kind of like a gourmet you know decorated piece of chocolate was very pretty uh with a B on top but we we enjoyed it I like it they also have a key lime pop in there as well we didn't try it but I grab some video footage of it so a little bit more money but also continuing that Florida flavor though um but yeah a nice little sweet treat to kind of get us through the Midway point of our tour here um keep in mind we're just kind of going to places that are easy to get into today there are a lot of the sit-down restaurants here throughout Disney Springs that are featuring various dishes for the Florida flavors Festival um and hopefully we'll get to try some of those over the next month and a half as this goes on so I think we're going to head down to yasaki next and uh and get a poke bowl that they have that's a special so we'll see you over there all right so scratch onyosaki they did not have mandarin oranges so they're not quite ready yet for the Florida Fresh menu they said they would have them in stock tomorrow though so we are actually going to head over to polite Pig now and see what they have to offer but if you did get to try the Poke bowl over there please leave a comment down below and let us know what you thought we are at polite Pig and we just had the Key West pink trip Ceviche and it was one of the more expensive ones that we've tried today it was twenty dollars uh we did get an annual pass or I think DVC discount it was a 10 discount so that made it 18 flight pig is kind of quick service but you order and then you sit down and you have a server that comes around to assist you so you do also add a tip uh when you go and check out if used to choose to so you know 15 to 20 also on top of that it was one of the larger looking more like an entree and Visually it was absolutely beautiful so it was shrimp smoked melons and shishito peppers uh local tomato vinaigrette there was corn and drizzle of honey I thought it was absolutely beautiful I did not like the dish at all the shrimp although they were huge I love big shrimp they they were I was cold because the cvha is cold they were very smoky like had a very intense smoke flavor and I like the smoke flavor uh to a point with with barbecue and hot uh you know Smoked Meats but to me on cold shrimp it just it just did not do it for me from the first bite I kind of knew that was going to be Amy's reaction to this disc just because of her experience with like smokiness um we have a Traeger at home so if I smoke something too long on the Traeger it's not something it's basically not a flavor profile that she really enjoys I enjoyed it I love most shrimp dishes cold shrimp dishes shrimp cocktail Ceviche all of that so it was definitely up my alley a lot of fresh flavors going on here with the corn and the grilled watermelon that's on there as well the only part that I can't get over is the cost really so this is probably the most expensive dish that we've had today and it is essentially at what we would consider like a quicker service type dining establishment so kind of a little bit more on the pricey side if you go back to pizza Ponte you could get two of those giant slices of pizza for the same price that we paid for this dish so that's my only negative but overall I did enjoy it all right another reason that you should go and get one of these it's really awesome cardstock pamphlets for flavors of Florida it's because it makes a really good fan it is in the 90s out here so this works really well so follow me for more Disney hacks we're at the spice and Tea Exchange and they have a little Tea Bar in the corner which is where they had our next flavors of Florida which was the Florida Sunshine tea is basically a floral and citrus flavored tea and you can also get a lot of different sweeteners if you would like sugar uh we did a little bit of honey and ours and that's all we had but they also have like Peach flavors and stuff like that or you can just have it completely unsweetened the tea was 5.49 I did not know that the sweetener costs extra so she asked what kind of sweetener we would want and we chose just a little bit of honey we did paid extra 35 cents for that honey but not not too bad of an extra but I like that you can make it as sweet or as not sweet as you want Paul and I are used to drinking unsweet tea so this is just perfect it didn't really say what type of tea it was it looks kind of like a green tea but it's more of like a floral Citrus the Citrus is more of like an aftertaste but it is is refresh rate refreshing excuse me it has a great flavor and I thought it was a good price for as big of a cup of tea it is and it's perfect for this hot day what was the best thing you ate today oh goodness um the shrimp tacos at Jacqueline's I thought that they were I love I love tacos they were fresh the ingredients just work really well together and I love the setting I love sitting on that deck outside and it was nice and cool and I just really enjoy that that was my favorite I will go with the pizza from pizza Ponte um just a pleasant surprise really I was not expecting it to be as good as it was as big of a slice of pizza that it was and to also be able to inject some of that Florida flavor into Pizza it's just not what you think of when you think of like flavors of Florida or something like that I'm also still really enjoying this tea I know I didn't mention it earlier but the Florida Sunshine tea here at the tea and coffee Tea and Spice and tea something like that those two words in some combination I think it was but very refreshing especially on this very hot day and I know I mentioned this before but that's kind of the theme of this Florida Fresh menu is that it's very light dishes I had to laugh because you've called it something different almost every time flavors of flavors Florida there is something called foreign yumminess I don't know it it's good all of it's good I think we're excited to come back and try some more dishes throughout this it is running until August 13th yes I really want to try some of the sit-down restaurants uh particularly Frontera Cocina has a uh was it a Ceviche or something similar oh it's a cocktail shrimp cocktail it looks really good with avocado and all that stuff and Boathouse has a dish so really excited to try some more yeah and it goes into August 13th yeah so if you're here this summer uh definitely come to Disney Springs check out these amazing menus pick up that uh
