Baobab is a superfood! It has a tangy, citrusy flavor. The pods dry while they are on the tree, drop to the ground, and when you crack it open you can crush it into a powder. It has some of the most antioxidants of any food!! I add it to my water or lemonade, etc and its soooo tasty. I bet it was good in that butter.

If you can go off property, try Bull and Bear restaurant at Wardolf hotel. We went there for our 30th wedding anniversary last year and it was phenomenal. We used to go to Jiko’s several times, but it was always a hit or Miss, not consistently good.

After what you've been thru lately with Disney and their steaks, I would reason they have had to change to a different meat distributor because they're going broke. Obviously, they're not buying high quality meat anymore. But haven't adjusted their prices accordingly. A filet should NEVER taste like a burger. You Can buy filet mignon burgers, I guess they grind up filet that didn't sell yesterday. And they are better quality than other burgers. But not the other way around. Sour butter made me think of a spoiled taste. I hope you take plenty of Rolaids with you!!! Lol. You are a real trooper. Lately the food has been awful. Taking one for the team! 👍

Hi I’m new to your videos. I’m curious on Disney property the Swan and dolphin are Disney properties. Have you ever went to any of the restaurants at the Swan & dolphin or the Swan reserve? Should Shula’s steakhouse 🤷🏽‍♂️ be on that list? Or do you not go to any of the restaurants at this Swan and dolphin even though it’s on the boardwalk? It’s just a question. These hotels are all considered deluxe resorts, on Disney properties. There’s a lot of other restaurants for Disney resorts that are not Disney run Resorts. Four seasons, Walt Disney World, Swan & dolphin resort and Waldorf, Astoria, Orlando. Waldorf of Astoria has 12 restaurants/lounges. The Swan and dolphin have 23 restaurants//lounges . The Swan reserve has another 18 restaurant/lounges. Thank you, I really enjoyed your content.

Went here a few weeks ago, it was absolutely awful. The steak had a terrible crust and was tough. The Mac and cheese tasted like Panera. And the service was the worst I've had at any restaurant, Disney or not. I advise skipping this place if you're on property. We tried most of the menu (party of 19) zero standouts.
