I also wrote up a review in case you don't have the time or means to listen to the podcast. My expanded review is below. Show #05 - World of Color Review, What's Next? http://dlrtoday.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/DLRT-005.mp3 My Expanded Review I made a reservation via the (714) 781-DINE two weeks in advance. The call went smootly enough and wasn't too complex or frustrating. All in all, I had a party of six adults with reserved seating at Ariel's Grotto and premium viewing for World of Color all setup and done in about 5 minutes. We did not need to pay for the package at the time of the phone call. So, not really much to review here other than to say it went smoothly. When we arrived at Ariel's Grotto at around 5:30pm (reservation was at 6:00pm) they took us right in and sat us immediately, even tho we were 30 minutes early. The staff was welcoming and friendly. A spiral staircase lead down to the main restaurant which lives under the Paradise Pier boardwalk. The restaurant was tidy and clean, although I did notice a few tears in the carpet and cracks in the ceiling within 5 minutes of arrival. Nothing a week-long refurbishment  can't fix tho. Upon seating at our table, I noticed several lighting fixtures above the tables themed to Jellyfish and various other sea creatures. This was a nice touch and the themeing was understated and executed with class. Not like places akin to Rain Forest Cafe, where the theming is fun, but cheesy. The place felt like a 4 star restaurant, rather than a family amusement. Although, family events like birthdays and anniversaries would be appropriate. As well as romantic dinners for two. We were handed our World of Color Prix Fixe menus. We were able to choose one apitizer for the table, so we took a vote. We all agreed to the assorted cured meats. The meats came out on a tower of stacked plates. The top plate had prosciutto. The middle plate had cured shrimp and clams. The bottom plate was adorned with salad and fruit. The items were plated nicely and were prepared beautifully. I particularly enjoyed the prosciutto while my wife and two brothers liked the clams. I was a bit disappointed in the portion of the appetizer though. For six adults, it was not nearly enough for all of us. But, with the meal that would follow, this is not a big complaint. Shortly after our appetizer, our main courses arrived. Unlike the appetizer, each person got to choose from one of several options. I chose the Tri-Tip. Over all the steak was very tender and full of flavor. I almost didn't need A-1 sauce to spice up the dish. Almost! The steal was still missing something, so I asked for some A-1, which rounded out the flavor just the way I like it. Your tastes amy vary. I enjoyed the smashed potatoes very much. They made the dish for me. There were also several cucumbers and other veggies, but I was naughty and did not eat my veggies. No toy for me. :(  The portions of the main course were fair and adequate. I was satisfied with the overall dish. After our delicious dinner, we all got to vote once again to choose a desert for the entire table. We all agreed to go with the World of Color White Chocolate Film Strip. This was a World of Color evening after all. The desert is a mix of various forms of chocolate including tiramisu and a assorted mooses and cakes. The main element was the centerpiece white chocolate film strip adorned with the World of Color logo and a couple of stills from the show. I ate the film strip, ad it was good. Really good! I did not care much for the other items tho. They seemed sort of bland. Although the rest of my group enjoyed the assorted treats very much. One note on the restaurant though is that is is famous for it's character meet-n-greets. Usually, various Disney Princesses such as Ariel, Snow White and Aurora mingle with the guests, DLRtoday no disney,disneyland,california,adventure,resort,attractions,travelhttp://dlrtoday.com/2010/06/15/show-05-world-of-color-review/http://dlrtoday.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/DLRT-005.mp3 http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/DLRtoday/~3/o1qyz_abxUo/ http://dlrtoday.com/2010/06/12/show-04-live-from-the-world-of-color-premier/#comments Sat, 12 Jun 2010 21:16:10 +0000 shaun@dlrtoday.com (Shaun Harris) http://dlrtoday.com/?p=62 http://dlrtoday.com/2010/06/12/show-04-live-from-the-world-of-color-premier/feed/ 1 World of Color We are pleased to bring you a special edition LIVE Podcast from the World of Color Premier at Disney California Adventure.
